“Tea! Bless ordinary everyday afternoon tea”
Refuse to stuck in the Jakarta's traffic during the rush hour or look for a new place to hang out with friends?
Fountain Lounge at Grand Hyatt Jakarta might be your answer!
Although I've been hearing about this afternoon tea at the Fountain Lounge since forever, I just had a chance to try it today.
My first thought about the Fountain Lounge was it's very well-situated; it's in the heart of downtown Jakarta. I don't think anyone will have difficulties to find this place!
The famous Bundaran HI (Hotel Indonesia roundabout) is literally your view from this lounge.
After got one of the best spots to sit at the lounge, we told the waitress that we want to have afternoon tea. As a savoury-food-kinda-girl, I was pretty ecstatic when the waitress told us that they had more savoury snacks than sweet snacks on that day. I chose jasmine tea (always being my fav tea!), while my friend, Dita, chose lapsang souchong tea. Besides teas, you have coffees and herbal drinks as your option for this afternoon tea. I know it's kind of weird, eh? :)
The afternoon tea menu at the Fountain Lounge, IDR 255.000++/2 pax
It didn't take long for them to bring our teas, which came in a beautiful China - I secretly wanted to bring them home! LOL
Aren't they beautiful?
My tea was delicious! BTW, I didn't put any sugar in my tea this time! I know, surprise, eh? :)
While my friend and I were sipping our delicious teas, talking about new ideas, and enjoying the view outside, our snacks came in.....
YUUUMMM!!!!
I can spend hours sitting, drinking tea, eating, people-watching, and enjoying my day in this place.
The Afternoon Tea at the Fountain Lounge, Grand Hyatt Jakarta, is available daily from 15.00 to 18.00.
I had nothing but good experiences for my first afternoon tea at the Fountain Lounge, Grand Hyatt Jakarta. I mean, delicious tea and snacks, a good company, and a great cozy place, what else could I ask for?
