Very Berry Strawberry Afternoon Tea at ANA InterContinental Tokyo

This lavish strawberry afternoon tea is bursting with 1.5 times more strawberries.

1.5 times more than what? We're not entirely sure, but all 12 of these exquisite petite gateaux look incredible! There are also 5 savory options to balance out the sugar. These also have the touch of strawberries, so it'll be interesting to see the chef's interpretation of savoury through sweet.

As with any respectable afternoon tea session, you can choose from over 15 beverages, featuring Ronnefeldt tea and of course, Japanese tea. ANA InterContinental Tokyo is located in the luxurious area of Akasaka so you'll be sure to feel pampered during this experience.
