There are few things in life more civilized than sitting down to a sumptuous afternoon tea set, taking respite from a busy day to sample gourmet delicacies and expertly brewed tea. Now, The Promenade Shops at Galaxy Macau™ offers something even more indulgent for its valued patrons: a luxurious afternoon tea set presented by two of the world’s most sought-after brands – leading Swiss watchmaker Breguet and The Ritz-Carlton Bar & Lounge – that will give shoppers a taste of how it feels to live the life of a queen.
The Breguet afternoon tea set is an exploration into the fine art of pastry making.

The sweet selection features Opera Cake, Hazelnut Millefeuille, Lemon Meringue Tart, Orange Butter Cream Sablé, Crème Caramel, and Confit Orange, Chocolate Raisin and Plain Scones. Enjoy this unforgettable experience for just MOP$488* for two, or MOP$688* with two glasses of Perrier-Jouët Champagne. In addition, Breguet is offering gift voucher for The Ritz-Carlton Bar & Lounge guests who join for the afternoon tea, giving them the opportunity to not only eat like a queen, but shop like one as well.
Breguet’s founder, Abraham-Louis Breguet, is regarded as having set the standard by which all other watchmaking is judged. His legendary innovations include the first self-winding watch, the gong spring and the tourbillon. And while men appreciate the brand’s horological prowess, many famous and powerful women have also been ardent admirers, too, including queens Marie-Antoinette of France and Victoria of Great Britain and Ireland. In fact, Breguet designed the world’s first known wristwatch for the Queen of Naples, Caroline Murat – also the younger sister of Napoleon – who later inspired the brand’s renowned Reine de Naples collection.
The Breguet tea set was designed by The Ritz-Carlton Bar & Lounge to honor Breguet’s 244-year heritage as the avant-garde watchmaker to royalty. Today, Breguet continues to recognize the royal women who played such an important role in its history, while capturing the hearts of a new generation of women with the irresistible charms of its unique timepieces.
Hazel Wong, Assistant Senior Vice President of Retail for Galaxy Macau, said, “Breguet has a long tradition of excellence, and this is something we take to heart at The Promenade Shops, the retail destination of choice for fashion lifestyle and café society. Here, shoppers can explore the finest in fashion and accessories and mingle with others who share a passion for the finer things in life, all in a sophisticated setting. Breguet believes that in every woman there is a queen, and we are delighted to demonstrate it with this exquisite tea set.”
Indulge in the Breguet tea set at The Ritz-Carlton Bar & Lounge from 27 April through 27 June. Make your reservation for an unforgettable shopping and culinary experience fit for royalty.
