Three to Tea



What do three ladies do on a lazy Saturday afternoon? English tea is a good idea. And so, we ended up at the place, Fosters: An English Rose Cafe for an afternoon of tea-sipping and chit-chatting.




This cafe is decorated with beautiful armchairs and ornaments. The only minus point i can think of is that their chinas are all pure-white. I prefer drinking from a teacup which has pretty floral details =)




We ordered their famous Devonshire Tea Set which comes with their signature scones (2x) with cream and jam, fruit cake and a sandwich. Just the scones were enough to make us pat our bellies, the buttermilk taking up spaces in our stomach.




After the fulfilling tea, we promptly went shopping ( or window-shopping), and bought tickets for a movie. Just before the movie, we visited another girly shop for dinner. This place is hidden in a small corner, called Tea Cosy. It is actually a furniture shop, but has a small corner for a cafe.




This shop uses its furniture on sale as cafe chairs and tables. Everything in this place has a price tag, so if you find that the sofa you're sitting in is very very comfortable, you can actually purchase it after your meal.




I can't believe my friend can still down another cup of rose tea after consuming a full pot for tea time. This cup is what i was talking about before! Nice floral patterns!




Some root beer and cranberry juice for us two. The cafe uses angels as their main theme. All the tables have angel figurines on them.




Our baked mushroom with cheese. Absolutely divine! We all loved it to bits.




And finally, grilled chicken with penne. Another good dish, would recommend friends to patronize this place. I heard that they're currently undergoing renovations, will probably visit again next time to see if they retain the charm.
