Spring is here and it marks a new beginning. Wynn Macau announces the debut of afternoon tea at Café Esplanada, offering a refreshing afternoon tea experience in a heavenly oasis.
Guests can indulge in the alluring array of savoury and sweet delicacies, while embracing the luscious garden under the sun in the outdoor seating area, or they can enjoy the comfort of the indoor serene atmosphere, sip a cup of tea and admire the view of the beautifully landscaped pool garden outside from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Executive Pastry Chef Yoann Mathy said, “Guests can smell and taste the spring season with this newly-created afternoon tea. I purposely use Tahitian vanilla beans, my favorite vanilla bean, to craft the Raspberry and Vanilla Tartlet. The Tahitian vanilla bean is rich in vanilla flavor and has a floral aroma with tones of ripe fruit.”
Tahitian vanilla is one of the most expensive culinary items in the world, as the art of producing the agricultural crop is a labor-intensive one. When the vanilla flower blossoms during a period of between one or two days, it is hand-pollinated, after which four to nine months are needed for it to mature. To develop the “parfum,” it is then cured. At the end, the bean darkened to its extraordinary final status.
The refined quality of Tahitian vanilla together with the savoir-faire of Chef Yoann is a match made in heaven. Other must-have items in the afternoon tea set also include the Pure Chocolate Cream and Crunchy Choux Puff made with melt-in-your-mouth Tuscan ‘Amedei’ chocolate cream.
To perfectly pair with such delicacies, guest can choose from a wide variety of tea, a selection of freshly brewed coffee, and signature healthy mixed juices.
