Gary Rhodes's Signature Afternoon Tea

Rhodes in Residence - Lobby level of Grosvenor House Tower Two - Dubai Marina
Although I had a bad experience a year back at Rhodes Mezzanine for serving cold main courses for dinner, but that didn’t stop me from wanting to try Gary's afternoon tea.
Fortunately, I was totally pleased; we were warmly welcomed, seated promptly in a nice table by the piano. Everything was perfect that afternoon, and food was SUPERB and plentiful!
 



Finger Sandwiches (Cucumber creme faiche, Quile's egg, Smoked salmon, Lemon chicken, and Roast beef)

Special savoury of the day (Cream cheese, onion and herb croque monsieur & Duck and cranberry pasties)

Roast beef cooked to perfection!

Cream cheese croque monsieur was so good!

Homemade Scones - wasn't my favorite

Red berry Eton mess - Yummy


Warm raspberry buttered crumpets - Nothing could be more British!

Cakes (Warm honey Dundee cakes, Chocolate muffins, Lemon & Bluberry cakes, and finally Victoria Sponge)

All cakes were perfectly baked

a special complementary treat - mini homemade creamy strawberry ice-cream cones

No, ice-cream wasn't the only treat - Thanks Rhodes for the generosity!



Oj Says: Definitely one of my fav afternoon teas in Dubai, but be careful that’s plenty of food!

AT.MOSPHERE – The Lounge

AT.MOSPHERE – The Lounge – the 122nd-floor of Burj Khalifa
I am often asked which is my favorite afternoon tea in Dubai, and to be fair enough - I've tried over 14 places so far and honestly speaking none has reached the quality that AT.MOSPHERE Lounge serves. Yes, it might one of the most expensive afternoon teas but you'll be visiting the best location in town and will be served the finest quality of food and tea.











Oj Says: afternoon tea lovers - I Beg you pleaaase never miss this!
