Relaxing and chatting with friends and family while indulging in a delicious flute of champagne and enjoying exquisite delicacies, all while looking out over some of Macau’s most famous landmarks from the impressive windows of Vida Rica Bar at Mandarin Oriental, Macau – surely one of the best ways to live life to the fullest on a weekend afternoon!
For lovers of high tea, Afternoon FANtasy is a fabulous experience that simply can’t be missed. An array of tasty, made-on-the-spot sandwiches, delicious cakes and pastries and tempting desserts, along with top-quality coffee, champagne and tea, this lavish experience will certainly make your day.
Guests can enjoy a personalised selection of treats at Afternoon FANtasy, starting with a homemade mandarin orange sorbet as a welcome refresher to get you relaxed and prepare your palate for what is to come.
Served on an elegant three-tier stand, the creations include Wagyu beef finger sandwiches made with charcoaled squid ink bread, cep mushroom and Espelette chilli; grilled panini sandwiches made with tomato Provence herb bread, 24-month Iberico ham and Portuguese cheese; smoked Tasmanian salmon open face sandwiches made with poppy seed beetroot bread, smoked caviar and saffron garlic aioli, and raspberry financier with pistachio Chantilly cream.
Rose Champagne jelly with mixed berry caviar is also a must-try. You can savour every item on the menu or select your own favourites, all prepared in front of you. And for those desiring even more, all sandwiches and various desserts are available on an à la carte basis.
The menu has been exclusively crafted by Culinary Director Dominique Bugnand and Executive Pastry Chef Sebastien Bernis, who have remained faithful to the creative combination of finger sandwiches, scones served warm, and sweet pastries.
All ingredients are painstakingly sourced from around the world, skillfully prepared and served fresh each day, to ensure an authentically memorable experience. The menu will be transformed and added to from time to time to include changing seasonal ingredients.
The centerpiece of this premium afternoon tea is, of course, the beverages. Besides an impressive range of freshly brewed coffees and fine teas, Vida Rica Bar offers three flavours of Valrhona chocolates for you to choose from, for an aromatic cup of velvet hot chocolate.
Carefully selected champagne at a very special price will complement your food perfectly, as you celebrate the coming evening with your choice of your favourite bubbly from the champagne list, served in a striking bespoke coupe glass.
