Welcome back to another afternoon tea post from Tea With Me and Friends - today we have something slightly different for you as we are showcasing an afternoon tea from slightly further afield! We are joined by Sarika, who is a Londoner currently living in Singapore who writes Pearlsbounce blog.
Sarika loves food, wine, stationary and trotting the globe.....and luckily for us she is rather partial to a spot of afternoon tea too.....

| Sarika and the Birdcage afternoon tea W Hotel Singapore |
W Singapore housed on Sentosa hosts a modern afternoon tea with their Birdcage W T Time. Seated in the sparkly purple Woo Bar, Birdcages of sweet treats decent to each lounge @ $58 per cage (for 2 persons).
The Savoury beginnings were plentiful with staff continually topping up.
Favourites were the Tikka Inspired Salmon, Mint & Spice Poppadum, Torched Double Brie, Pickled Cucumber Nigiri and the ultra favourite Chocolate Ganache Foie Gras Tarts - extremely tasty and well balanced, with a sparkling gold leaf topping!

| Chocolate Ganache Foie Gras Tarts - W Hotel Singapore |
Being a fan of Chilli Crab I was excited by the arrival of The Double Cooked Hen's Egg, Chilli Crab Mantou, tasty they were but slightly over done.
Softer buns please!
The desserts were decent - but lacking in some scones!
In replace were some sort of jam fruit filo tartlets which I didn't waste my time trying. The Chocolate tea cup and Fresh Berry Trifle Shot were far more appealing and tasty enough to leave appeased.

All in all a relatively reasonable Afternoon Tea overlooking some prettiness of Singapore with all the dazzle of the W Hotel.

Sarika, Rachel and Lorna - It was such a delight to read about the afternoon tea in Singapore. I would definitely miss my traditional scones, but it's always fun to see the different sandwiches and savouries chefs come up with.
