Vegan High Tea

Overview

It's not every day you get to sit down to a lavish vegan high tea, designed by internationally renowned chef Matthew Kenney.

But that foodie dream could soon be part of your weekly routine, as Kenney hits Australia to launch a new series of high tea feasts, fusing local ingredients with some pretty clever techniques.

It all kicks off this October, at Kenney's plant-based restaurant Alibi Bar + Kitchen, within Ovolo Woolloomooloo. The new offering will see vegans completely spoiled for choice, with five different two-hour packages available throughout the week — depending on how boozy you want your feast to be.

Spend just $65 to match your high tea nibbles with a glass of sparkling rosé, plus bottomless tea and coffee, or go large and pay $140 for bottomless Perrier-Jouet grand brut.

As for the food, expect an array of sweet and savoury delights, like baby quiches with vegan cream cheese, forest mushrooms matched with wasabi cream, and a mixed berry 'cheesecake' with strawberry compote. A range of signature plant-based cocktails will also be on offer, including a Kaffir lime mule crafted on house-made ginger beer.

Vegan High Tea is available from 12–4pm, Wednesday–Sunday.
