Best High Teas in Ipoh

Written by Updated ago

Typically consumed by the working class before dinnertime, a high tea session usually consists of a hot dish followed by sweet desserts. The term was 'invented' by Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford who is said to have started the English tradition in the early 1840's. Back then, dinner was typically served much later in the evening compared to our modern society's habits of having dinner as early as 6:00PM. Therefore, to tame that growling stomach, the Duchess had lighter meals before dinnertime and called it tea. Today, high tea is more class-friendly with more eateries having recognized the potential market for high tea such as these ones in Ipoh.

    Patisserie Boutique has very instagrammable desserts that will surely make your followers wish they could taste through the phone screen. The cafe is small but that has never stopped patrons from letting themselves in. The cakes are very well loved here and the best ones are usually sold out everyday! The team also bakes 'specials' randomly, such as the highly requested and loved mille feuille. Besides that, expect mango cheesecake, matcha lava cake, trifles, fruit tarts, tiramisus, lemon meringue, scones - the temptation goes on and on.

    Potpourri House CafePork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    At Potpourri, it's a common sight to find the availability of zero tables. That's right. Inside, the space of the cafe is rather small and is more ideal for smaller groups. On top of that, Potpourri has earned itself a reputation for being a... well, tea house. Desserts including tiramisu, cheesecake, macarons and ice cream are a big hit here. Nevertheless, main courses have also been praised and thus, enabling the cafe to have a flow of customers through the day and not just during tea time.

    Tips

    Located inside Adonis Bridal. Lunch sets also available from 12.00-2.00pm.

    Things to expect

    Feeling like a real life Barbie doll.

    Best with

    Creme brulee, and afternoon tea.
