High Tea Party at Oasis Garden Cafe in Solaire

Coffee, tea, and tiny cakes are a few of my favorite things. That’s why when Edel sent me to the High Tea Party as a representative for Kitchen Goddess, I was ecstatic. It was a chance to try a variety of tea and sumptuous cakes.

This selection of pastry includes bibingka, spring roll, and leche flan.


The High Tea Party was held at the Oasis Garden Cafe in Solaire Resort & Casino, Paranaque City. The Oasis Garden Cafe is true to its name. It serves as the centerpiece of Solaire’s Sky Tower, a sanctuary after a tiring day or week. Its interior design mimics a bird’s nest, making the entire place unique and refreshing. The place even becomes more refreshing with its transparent glass roof and cascading water features.

To top off the relaxing vibe, a piano is placed at the heart of the cafe. During our afternoon tea, we enjoyed the food and the live piano music.

The Oasis Garden Cafe offers a wide and very classy selection of coffee and tea. During the High Tea Party, we got the chance to try four different kinds of tea. My favorite was the Passion Green tea. It was fruity and light to the taste.


We also tried  a wide array of cakes and finger sandwiches--from the popular chocolate cakes to the more unique type of sandwich topped with smoked salmon. Every piece of pastry was appealing to the eyes and the taste buds.

After the afternoon tea, Oasis Garden Cafe turns into a lounge where one can hang out and have a cocktail served with the “usual Solaire panache”.

The Oasis Garden Cafe is open every day until midnight. If you are looking to unwind and get a break from your busy city life, Oasis Garden Cafe is a perfect place to enjoy a cup of tea and your favorite pastry without traveling far away from the city.

NEW RESTO ALERT: Saigosan in Uptown Mall

Konnichiwa Saigosan! A new and funky izakaya recently opened at Uptown Mall headed by Chef Chris Oronce. This izakaya not only serves delectable dishes but is also a visual-feast. Inspired by animes, mangas, and JPop culture, Saigosan even has a train wherein you can hop from Kyoto to Osaka without a JR Pass! 

Salcedo Market x Legaspi Market Tour

We haven't visited the weekend markets for years so I was giddy with excitement because I was able to visit both Salcedo and Legaspi markets this month, thanks to our Dusit Thani Manila staycation . To differentiate the two, Salcedo market  is held every Saturday at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village Makati while Legaspi market is held every Sunday at the Corinthian Carpark in Legaspi Village Makati. Since we were coming from Dusit Thani Manila, it was quite a long walk but it was early in the morning (around 8AM) and even Ayala and Makati Avenues were still without cars. Wow! 

NEW RESTO ALERT: Hà Nội Phố (Ha Noi Pho)

Makati has been a go-to place for my family and I to grab a meal or sometimes just to have a cup of coffee. Though, really, it’s mostly just us visiting our favorite spots. Recently, my mom went out of town so it was just my dad and I who went out for dinner.
