UNBOXED BY METRO: The Peninsula Cakeaway Afternoon Tea Set

One of the things we've missed badly is the pleasure of sitting in The Pen's elegant lobby to enjoy the iconic afternoon tea  — clotted cream, lemon curd, strawberry jam, raisin scones, cakes, dainty finger sandwiches, macarons, and other savories. With the Peninsula Cakeaway Afternoon Tea Set, you can now have all these while sheltering at home. The delicious nibbles will be arranged on a three-tier stand inspired by The Lobby’s Villeroy & Boch Minton Haddon Hall china pattern and carefully packed in a tall Peninsula page hat takeaway box. 

 For an even more special treat, you can order additional cakes, pastries, and savory items from the hotel’s 44th Anniversary Menu that highlights specials from The Lobby, Old Manila, Spices, Escolta, Pool Snack Bar, The Bar/Salon de Ning and, of course, The Peninsula Boutique.  Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian and vegan, and children’s Afternoon Teas are also available.

Perhaps you're craving The Lobby’s beloved Pancit Luglug or Caesar Salad; Beef Wellington or Duck Confit Cassoulet from Old Manila; Spices’ Salmon Tikka Masala or Asam Goreng; Poke Bowls and sushi from Escolta; a Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich or an Avocado Toast from the Pool Snack Bar, and The Peninsula Boutique’s fabulous Strawberry Shortcake or King Oscar (cakes come in two sizes). 

If a cup of tea is not your thing, why not enjoy a boozy version of Afternoon Tea with these batched bottles of Negroni, Margarita, and Aperol Spritz from The Bar or Salon de Ning? Or or live it up with an iced bottle of Deutz Cuvée Peninsula Brut Champagne.

To order the Peninsula Cakeaway Afternoon Tea Set please call The Peninsula Boutique at (02) 888- 5747 or 8887-2888, email penboutiquepmn@peninsula.com, or order online through PenChat. Orders must be made 24 hours before pick-up or delivery.
