There’s nothing quite as relaxing as enjoying an afternoon tea with a selection of sandwiches and sweet desserts. Set in a cozy, elegant atmosphere, and a sophisticated lounge, our afternoon high tea experience at Peacock Lounge was something that we have to share with all of you. As one of the new luxury hotels which located in the heart of Senayan, Fairmont Hotel Jakarta has so many different dining options to choose from. Besides a visit to 1945 Restaurant, Sapori Deli, Barong Bar, and View Restaurant, I also visited Peacock Lounge a few weeks ago.
I still remember how wonderful it was that day where we spent the afternoon together here with my husband and mom-in-law after the Sunday church service. On arrival, we were greeted warmly by a suited man named Ikhwan and we were seated on a comfortable sofa next to the big window that offers natural light through it. There are three types of afternoon tea, and we tried The Peacock Signature set for two (IDR 388K).
All afternoon tea at Peacock Lounge – Fairmont Hotel Jakarta, consists of freshly prepared finger sandwiches, delicate cakes, scones and tempting chocolates accompanied by a choice of two cups of tea from a vast selection of premium teas and coffee. I thought that the Pink Flamingo by TWG sounds good, so I opted for it, including with the Eternal Summer by TWG and ordered an additional drink such as a Hot Cappuccino (IDR 60K) for Mom. Without waiting too long, the afternoon tea arrived and presented in a handcrafted leather jewelry box. It was so beautiful, and we were stunned for a moment when we saw it.
Then, our waiter went through the drawers and explained all the treats to us. I won’t explain how the taste of food one by one in this article, but I assure you that everything was so delicious. The Foie Gras and Salmon sandwiches, Zucchini, Pannacotta, everything…! However, I wish they would be more generous with savory options rather than the sweets menu. Oh well, it’s simply because we tend to crave savory foods more often than sweet food. Ha-ha..
So, if you’re looking for a special occasion afternoon tea, you should consider the Peacock Lounge as they represent high quality at good value. Whether you need a break from your busy day of work, a unique treat for that someone special, or else, Peacock Lounge will leave you nothing but a memorable tea experience. The service was attentive, and I advise you to book well in advance if you want to secure a spot at the Peacock Lounge.
