Nowadays, high tea is an elegant affair with dainty Chinaware and delectable treats served usually on a three-tier stand.

    NobuPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Everyone has heard of Nobu, or some of you might have even been there. For those who don't, Nobu is a fine dining international Japanese brand that had landed in Malaysia quite some time ago. They're famed for all the exquisite and luxurious Japanese dishes that some can only dream of. In any case, not many would know that they actually do offer high-tea. Quite surprising eh? Unlike most European high-tea sets, Nobu's variant is done in a rather unique bento-like box. Flashing an array of colourful bite-size dishes, each one of them does pack a significant amount of flavour and texture. 

    Tips

    Weekends 2.30pm to 5pm only. Reservations available.

    Things to expect

    A warm and cosy place with excellent service.

    Many may agree that it's overrated, some may even hate it. But one cannot disagree that TWG Tea is one of the most common place to enjoy high-tea for most business oriented people. The cafe itself is mostly quiet with minimal noise, the service is quick and efficient, though they may be rather rude sometimes. But all and all, they will get the job done. Everything is done on point, and the selection of tea are pretty decent. So if you're around the area and you're looking for a simple high tea set, then perhaps TWG Tea might just cut it.
