The upscale restaurant is launching a special menu "Tea by the Harbour at The Commune" just in time for Easter, which showcases a nicely-balanced mix of savouries and pastries including Japanese pork belly bao bun, unagi teriyaki slider, fruit tart, pandan crème brulee—and of course, freshly baked scones served with clotted cream and fruit and tea infusion jam—that makes for a decadent dining experience. For drinks, guests can choose from a fine selection of teas, coffees and juices.
Price: HK$720 for two persons
When: The special Easter-themed menu is available from April 3 to 6, which is served daily from 3:00 to 5:30 pm. A regular tea menu will also be available from April 3 onwards.
