English Afternoon Tea at Planters Lounge, Eastern & Oriental Hotel Penang



One of the best place to enjoy English Afternoon Tea is at Eastern & Oriental Hotel Penang. As many of you may have known, the old wing is currently undergoing a major renovation, but fret not as you can still pamper yourself to the luxuriousness of the English Afternoon Tea at Planters Lounge. Located on the 6th floor, Planters Lounge is now open to the public and welcomes you to a brand new dining experience where you can sit back, relax and enjoy the delicious creations and at the same time sip away to the fragrant teas while enjoying the beauty of the view.


This was actually my first time here and I just love the ambiance.


Imagine sitting back enjoying your meal while looking at the sea. Beautiful isn't it?







The setup brings much elegance and style.


Top Tier 
Raisin and Plain Scones
Served with homemade strawberry jam, pineapple jam and clotted cream.

This is the real deal. Spread the clotted cream and jam, and voila every bite into the light soft scones is heavenly good. 



Middle Tier
Smoked Salmon Tartare Sandwich - Wholemeal loaf
Crab Meat Slaw Sandwich - Wholemeal loaf
Corn Fed Chicken Ragout - Gourgeres
Truffle Scented Egg  - Poppy Seed Crusted Butter Bun 
Marinated Tuna Flakes Sandwich - Wholemeal Loaf  
 Organic Spinach Quiche 
Cucumber, Dill and Cream Cheese Sandwich - Pullman Loaf 

Every items on this tier offers a nice refreshing taste. One of my favourite is the Corn Fed Chicken Ragout. A soft choux pastry that offers a nice mild peppery kick when you sink your teeth into the filling.
