Hong Kong's Best New Afternoon Teas

Café Gray Deluxe
Get a taste of legendary fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg’s signature prints, colors and florals in bite-sized culinary creations presented by Café Gray Deluxe at The Upper House. Kicking off the DVF Spring 2016 collection, the “Fortuna” afternoon tea is inspired by the first painting Diane bought for herself, which depicts Fortuna, the Roman goddess of fortune. Like the collection, expect to be inundated with bright colors and pretty pink prints, from the sea buckthorn berry macarons to strawberry-jasmine shortcake and mousse of crème de cassis imbued with DVF’s spring colors. Savory items sing of spring, from the asparagus-ricotta tartlet to the foie gras torchon and rhubarb brioche. Cap off the girly afternoon with a stop at DVF’s Pacific Place store to redeem an exclusive DVF gift. $310 per person, $560 for two, through May 15. Daily 3:30-5:30pm.

The Lounge & Bar
In celebration of Godiva’s 90th birthday this year, The Ritz-Carlton is calling all chocoholics to its stunning lounge on the 102nd floor of ICC for a magical afternoon tea that journeys through Godiva’s nine decades of chocolate-making. The Collection Anniversaire high tea features eight creations inspired by history, from the “Signature Lait” coffee ganache created for “Gone With the Wind” in 1939, to the milk chocolate caramel “Ecusson” with a lion to mark Godiva’s appointment to the Royal Court of Belgium in 1968. The final piece is a brand new flavor for the 2016 anniversary: the “Egérie Noir” with smooth raspberry ganache, rose petals, and Belgian dark chocolate. $428. Apr 18-Jun 19. Mon-Thu 3-6pm; Fri 2:15-6:30pm; Sat-Sun noon-6:30pm.

Jinjuu
We didn’t know Korean afternoon tea could be a thing until modern Korean resto Jinjuu launched its concept earlier this year. Featuring mini versions of menu hits such as “Sae-woo” prawn cake pops and Yuja cured salmon on gem lettuce, Jinjuu’s afternoon tea puts a new spin on the English tradition. Guests can warm themselves over mandoo dumplings with a soy dipping sauce or feast on Korean fried chicken sliders, with crispy chicken thighs served with house mayo in a brioche bun. For a sweet ending, go for a chocolate hazelnut brownie spiced with gochugaru chili powder or a mango and passion fruit panna cotta, alongside a range of fine Korean teas. $300 for two. Mon-Sun 2:30-5:30pm.
