CAFÉ 103, AS THE NAME SUGGESTS, IS A RESTAURANT ON THE 103RD FLOOR OF THE RITZ-CARLETON. The height of this floor allows you to overlook the entire Victoria Harbour in Tsim Sha Tsui. The excellent view of the sea is the biggest selling point of the Ritz-Carlton Afternoon Tea. This five-star hotel from the United States is less restrained than the British aristocracy, but more street style, and the changeable refreshments do not pursue three-tier shelves or eating order, but use different shelves to hold different themes of afternoon desserts.
CAFÉ 103 Afternoon Tea has a pre-present feel, and you don't know what you'll be tasting when you go. CAFÉ 103 often collaborates with various brands to produce themed afternoon teas, as well as seasonal or festive themed afternoon teas. Previously, CAFÉ 103 cooperated with Kirin Jewelry to include panda tart, chocolate afternoon tea with Godiva, and orange liqueur afternoon tea with French orange wine brand Grand Mariner. The recently launched Summer Honey Afternoon Tea is a combination of citrus, grapefruit, and mint leaves as ingredients to create desserts and savoury treats with the theme of summer fruits.
However, compared to the British afternoon tea like The Peninsula Hotel, the Ritz-Carlton's afternoon tea lacks a sense of historical continuity. The essence of afternoon tea is never only in the tea itself, but also in the atmosphere constructed through food, environment and culture. The taste of refreshments is also difficult to adjust, and everyone's preferred style and taste are different, and frequent innovation occasionally leads to the unstable level of dessert produced. Fortunately, the Ritz-Carlton regularly updates the theme and menu of afternoon tea on its official website. IF YOU WANT TO ENJOY A PANORAMIC VIEW OF THE SEA WHILE STILL HAVING A GOOD MEAL, IT IS BEST TO CALL CAFÉ 103 OR SEND AN EMAIL TO CONFIRM THE AFTERNOON TEA MENU IN ADVANCE.
The price of afternoon tea with different themes fluctuates, with the price of each person around HK$400 and the set menu for two at around HK$650.
