Overview
The Star Sydney has opened a new tea room that's hosting high tea from midday to 4pm Thursdays through Sundays. G&Tea's $55 high tea menu kicks off with scones, as all good high teas do, before serving up a selection of sweet and savoury treats.
On the savoury side of the menu, expect dishes like curried egg and chive sandwiches, smoked salmon with caper cream cheese and cajun prawns. Your sweet tooth will be satisfied by the matcha and yuzu choux au cracquelin, vanilla bean panna cotta with gin and cherry bavarois.
Accompanying the meal is your choice of coffee or tea, or the addition of sparkling wine for $10 more per person. As for the tea, there are more than 25 varieties on offer ranging from your traditional tea leaves all the way through to rare and unique options.
Outside of the high tea hours, G&Tea is open until 8pm seven days a week, and, as the name suggests, gin is the star after dark. Come night time, there is a range of gin-focused cocktails on offer from tea martinis through to the Hummingbird Splice which combines gin, frangelico, pineapple and lime.
