Afternoon Tea at G Hotel Kelawai Penang.


It was another round of excitement and fun experience during the recent review invitation by G Hotel at 2PM, G Hotel Kelawai. 2PM, a lobby lounge that is a beautifully crafted emphasizing on lifestyle as well as architecture. The lovely contemporary design; cozy and relaxing atmosphere makes dining a pleasurable one always.

Ever wondered why the name chosen was 2PM? The start of the operation time at 2pm? Well they do start at 2pm but the reason behind 2PM is the address of the hotel. 2 Persiaran Maktab hence the initials PM.


Finally it's time to explore what 2PM is all about. 



You can opt for the indoor seating or outside at the alfresco area. The indoor feels so welcoming, it's like you can just put everything aside, sit back and just enjoy every moment being there over drinks and food.



We were then gathered, given a brief introduction about what the hotel has planned for us. That was when the thrill and excitement built up, yet nervous at the same time haha..


It was time to don the stylish apron and let the battle begin :p

But what was the contest about? Instead of having the usual normal review method, bloggers were given the chance to experience the plating of the Afternoon Tea setting, followed by uploading a photo into Instagram where we were required to include the hashtags such as #stylishly_g, #ghotelkelawai, #2PM, #afternoontea and we were only allowed to include additional 5 more hashtags of our own. 

Winners were determined by the amount of LIKEs we got from that Instagram post. It was pretty cool.


May the best "cook" win haha..


G Hotel as always, were very generous with the amount of food prepared for us to savour away, but before that,we had to choose 15 items in total, with each round collecting only 3 items to make our 3-tiered Afternoon Tea Set.

Just look at the gorgeous creations. How can one not drool upon seeing all of those heavenly goodies. 



Chicken Slice Croissant Sandwiches
Generous amount of chicken slice sandwiched between flaky soft croissant.



Tuna Mayo on Roasted Baguettes
Nothing can go wrong with a huge portion of tuna mayo on baguette slices.




Slider with Taco Buns
Who would have thought that this sort of like another looking burger would taste so deliciously good. The patty was really good. 



Mini Fruit Tartlets


Cranberry Scones & Cheese Sausage Puffs
Nothing beats scones and strawberry jam and cream. 




Macarons



The above items are the standard array of mouth-watering delicacies that is offered for their Afternoon Tea

This were the garnishes that we could use to beautify our masterpiece. From fresh fruits such as strawberries, grapes to canned fruits like Mandarin oranges, lychees, longans and peaches.


Apart from the fruits, they also prepared various nuts and adorable Chocolate decorations.


Tuan-tuan dan puan-puan, hari ni kita akan masak, eh silap bukan masak tapi hias dan makan haha.. Like a scene from some cooking show :p


This was what I took initially, the Orange Velvet from the cake counter was hard to resist. So I had it changed with the Croissant Sandwich. 


Upon collecting all 15 items, we were given the final 10 minutes to decorate our set. After a few finishing touches, my masterpiece was ready. 

It's so beautiful. Couldn't be more proud of myself :)
