Glossy Chocolate & Strawberry Afternoon Tea at The Strings Omotesando

A Luxurious Winter Pairing: Chocolate and Strawberries Take Center Stage

The Strings Omotesando’s restaurant, TAVERN by the green, is launching its "Glossy Chocolate & Strawberry Afternoon Tea," a limited-time offering that masterfully combines the richness of chocolate with the vibrant freshness of strawberries. This elegant afternoon tea set, available from January 15th to March 11th, 2025, presents a visually stunning and delectable experience, perfect for indulging during the winter season.

A Symphony of Flavors: Sweet and Savory Delights

The afternoon tea set features a carefully curated selection of sweets and savories, all designed to highlight the delightful interplay between chocolate and strawberries. The sweets portion boasts seven exquisite creations, each a testament to the culinary team’s artistry. Guests can anticipate a glossy, smooth chocolate mousse, a chocolate Mont Blanc tart with a hidden whole strawberry surprise, crimson heart-shaped bonbons, and a refreshing jelly that marries the flavors of berries and champagne.

The savory selection is equally impressive, offering four distinct items that provide a welcome counterpoint to the sweetness of the desserts. Highlights include a cauliflower mousse adorned with strawberries and TAVERN’s signature mini-burgers, elevated by a unique strawberry vinaigrette sauce. A warm beef tendon borscht and a smoked duck and strawberry salad round out the savory offerings, ensuring a satisfying and well-balanced culinary journey.

An Unforgettable Beverage Experience

Complementing the food is an unlimited selection of 16 beverages, including a variety of teas from the renowned Singapore-founded luxury tea brand, TWG Tea. For those seeking an extra touch of indulgence, an optional cocktail, the "Strawberry & Rose Imperial," is available. This elegant concoction features fresh strawberries, rose syrup, rose petals, and champagne, providing a truly luxurious accompaniment to the meal.
