La Truffe, Ma Du Zi Hotel Bangkok-Afternoon Tea

Ma Du Zi Hotel Bangkok
9/1 Ratchadaphisek, Klongtoey Sub-district,
Klongtoey District, Bangkok 10110
Tel : 02-615-6400
Afternoon Tea period: 2.00 p.m. - 5.00 p.m.
If you drive pass this building, you will not notice that there is a great place escaping in the middle of Bangkok (MaDuZi locates on Asoke Junction, Sukhumvit and Ratchadapisek, on the corner of Sukhumvit 16). and i'm so lucky that someone introduce this place to me!

Before coming to this place, first of all, highly recommend that you should call to make a reservation! not because of this place is so packed, but because it's so private so that if you don't call first, you might end up being at the gate and can't come in, for the gate is always closed and no one's there to open the gate for you.

After coming in, it's quite another world to me. peaceful and serene. great place for escaping.

They have 2 choice of afternoon tea set: one is the normal tea set which includes tea, savory, and sweet, plus macarons (Baht 650). the other is the same but with the additional wine (Baht 850). Some might know that i don't good at drinking, so i go for the former one. Please note that the savory and sweet changes everyday, depends on the ingredient the chef get on that day.

Time to order tea! They have choice of white tea, red tea, green tea, and black tea. with the choice of flowers: Lavender, Chamomile, Mary Gold (but in my opinion, i think it's Chrysanthemum), and Carnation. and the choice of sweet addition: white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar, and honey.My choice! White tea with rose. Quite ok, but not that much rose scent.

Savoury. From right to left, Omelette on Baguette, Toast Ham and Cheese Sandwich, and Mushroom Tart.

Give you another picture!

Awesome! i have to think carefully of what to eat first. end up with omelette, then sandwich, then mushroom tart. all is fantastic, but my most favorite is the sandwich. perfectly toasted with not too much, not too little ham&cheese. if it's a bit more or less than this, it won't be this perfect!

Another thing, don't think that they gave you too little. for me, i think it's quite perfect portion. if they give you more than this, it will be too much.
Strawberry tart!

Top view.After a bite.

Even it's a bit too early for strawberries, the chef can manage to make this tart great. i think the base is super creamy almond paste, but not so sure.

Honestly, i can't remember what this one call, but there is cherry inside, so i gonna call it the Cherry Dome!
Top view. can you notice it's so shine and you can even use it as a mirror! (already tried, lol)

After a cut, to show you the inside. (see the light bulb on the cutting part? quite shine!)

i don't know how to explain this one. bitter chocolate and cherry...creamy smooth chocolate moose with cherry in the middle. I quite melt using a knife to cut through it and the taste is like a daydream.
Macarons!!! i got strawberry cream cheese (i think, lol), chocolate, and blueberry. my favorite is chocolate, feel like eating brownie!

Just a sentence for conclusion, i gonna come back for sure!
