Easter High Tea at Belle Époque

Overview

There's never a bad time to treat yo'self to high tea, but Easter is one of the best. Plenty of spots around town celebrate the occasion with exactly that kind of spread — and, with its antique stained-glass windows and vintage chandelier, Belle Époque at Emporium is among them.

So, what makes this high tea stand out? Firstly, there's the fact that it's available for more than just a few days, hanging around for a month this time around. Tuck in daily from 10.30am–2.30pm up until Sunday, March 31.

Then, there's the menu. You have a few choices, starting with the most decadent of Easter eggs to share. For $45 for two people, your handcrafted chocolate orb will melt in front of you, turning into fondue — which you can dip fruit, marshmallows and cookies into.

Or, for $80 each, opt for a savoury and sweet array, including pistachio bunny cookies, an edible garden with caramel chocolate mousse and cocoa soil, and a red velvet bird's nest. A hefty range of tea and coffee is also part of the package. Plus, if you feel like something boozy, you can add a glass of sparkling ($90) or champagne ($100) on top — or go for bottomless champers ($130).
