Pistachio Temptation Afternoon Tea @ Cielo

Christmas is just around the corner, and during this special time, I miss my friends even more. So, I decided to meet up for a delightful afternoon tea. We chose Cielo on the 47th floor of Crowne Plaza Kowloon East, which offers a stunning view and a high CP value Pistachio Temptation Afternoon Tea. The Pistachio Temptation Afternoon Tea consists of 5 savory and 5 sweet items, plus English scones with a choice of coffee or tea! Beverage options include coffee, foam coffee, strong coffee, fresh milk coffee, espresso, and Twinings tea such as English Breakfast Tea, Chamomile Herbal Tea, Peppermint Herbal Tea, Earl Grey Tea, Green Tea, White Tea, Peach Passion Fruit Herbal Tea, and Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea. With so many choices, you're sure to find your favorite. Alternatively, you can upgrade to a pistachio milkshake or a glass of sparkling wine for an additional $40! The pistachio milkshake is made with premium vanilla ice cream, giving it a smooth texture and a rich pistachio flavor that is delightfully indulgent. For those who enjoy alcohol, you can chill with a glass of sparkling wine and enjoy the aroma of the wine. I started with the savory items, which included sashimi, grilled, steamed, and baked delicacies for a multi-faceted afternoon tea experience. Salmon Sashimi with Pistachio Cream Cheese Roll! The glossy salmon sashimi is oily and flavorful, with a pistachio-flavored cream cheese inside, adding a nutty aroma to the fresh taste of the salmon. Pan-Seared Tuna with Pistachio Crust and Okra Salad! The lightly seared tuna is coated with crushed pistachios, giving it a crispy texture, paired with a refreshing okra salad for a standout and delicious taste. Pan-Seared Scallops with Pistachio and Bonito Broth Steamed Egg! The Japanese steamed egg at the bottom is very smooth, while the pan-seared scallops are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with the pistachios adding a finishing touch. Pistachio Pesto Baked Escargot Mashed Potato Toast! The crispy toast is topped with smooth mashed potatoes, and the escargot is paired with a pistachio pesto, making it very satisfying. Pistachio Crab Roe Egg Salad Croissant! The egg salad is enhanced with crushed pistachios for added texture, and the crispy mini croissant makes it incredibly tasty. After enjoying the rich and delicious savory items, it's time for the sweet treats! Pistachio English Scones! The scones are filled with crushed pistachios, giving them a crunchy texture. Spread with clotted cream and strawberry jam, they are simply delightful. Pistachio Chocolate Mousse Cone! The mini charcoal cone is filled with pistachio chocolate mousse, offering a sweet and nutty flavor that is very cute. Pistachio Mango Cream Puff Pastry Roll! The crispy puff pastry is topped with fresh mango pieces for a sweet touch, and filled with pistachio mango cream, creating a surprisingly perfect match. Pistachio Crispy Puff! The chewy green puff is full of pistachio flavor, making it very enjoyable to eat in one bite. Pistachio Macaron! Pistachio-flavored macarons are rare, and paired with tea-flavored filling, they create a spark. The whole pistachio accompanying the macaron makes it even more delightful. Mini Pistachio Basque Cheesecake! Although it doesn't have the burnt effect, the texture and flavor are spot on, with a rich pistachio flavor balanced perfectly with the cheese.
