The Ritz Bar & Lounge

The traditional afternoon tea here is well-known in Shanghai. The super luxurious lobby bar, antique bookshelves, and British-style interior decoration really add points to the afternoon tea environment here. There are not many seats for afternoon tea, so if you want to have afternoon tea, it is best to book in advance. All the teas at Ritz-Carlton are from Singapore's luxury tea brand TWG. This time we went to participate in the tea art course of Shanghai Portman Ritz-Carlton Hotel and TWG, spending two hours drinking TWG tea and eating snacks. We tasted about 10 kinds of TWG tea, including White Peony Tea, Shengyu Steamed Green Tea, Tieguanyin Tea, Lu'an Guapian Tea, Shengyu Pu'er Tea, Alphonso Black Tea, Selected Jasmine Tea, Bourbon Vanilla South African Tea, Midsummer Crimson South African Tea and 1837 Black Tea. Most of the guests who come to the tea art course usually have the habit of drinking tea, but they are all fixed to one or two kinds of tea. Some like Pu'er, some like Tieguanyin, and some like Dahongpao. They drank ten kinds of tea at once, and the friends were a little flustered. Each taste was good and it was difficult to choose. After drinking more than ten kinds of tea, they also changed several tea cups, each of which looked good. The white peony tea is fresh and elegant, the Shengyu steamed green tea has a reserved taste, the Tieguanyin tea is strong and lasting, the Lu'an melon tea is sweet with flowers, the Shengyu Pu'er tea is soft with earthy fragrance, the Alphonso black tea is accompanied by mango and fruit flowers, the latter jasmine tea is elegant and noble, the Bourbon vanilla South African tea is also liked by children, the midsummer crimson South African tea hides a hint of sweetness, and the 1837 black tea lingers with the aroma of berries, fennel and caramel, which is an eternal classic. TWG tea master Jules Samson introduced different teas to us and what kind of snacks are suitable for this tea. Some are suitable for salty food, and some are suitable for sweet food. Unfortunately, my brain capacity is not big enough, and I can't remember the specific pairings, but I remember that they are all delicious. Afternoon tea has three layers in total. The salty food includes: smoked salmon mille-feuille, turkey breast, tuna salad and cucumber, smoked salmon puffs & cream cheese, tomato salsa tart & fig balsamic vinegar pearls, tender fried scallops with black fish roe macarons, orange pickled foie gras, crab meat and passion fruit jelly, black truffle duck salad. Desserts include: Valrhona Dus 32[%] chocolate apricot tart, Valrhona Caribbean 66[%] chocolate cranberry, pineapple white chocolate Chantilly, chocolate lemon cream, Najivana Earl Chocolate Mousse, Na Hazelnut Chocolate Coffee, chocolate and original scones & rose pickled cranberry jam and heavy cream. Although you may only like one or two kinds of tea, TWG provides more choices and blends teas of different flavors, giving people more reasons to like drinking tea. You can enjoy TWG afternoon tea at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore.

I heard that the "Taste of Rome" series of set menus were released last year, but I missed it. I made an appointment to experience it as soon as the 2.0 version was launched this year. The menu has a total of five flavor dishes with five special cocktails, and you can dine at the oval center island bar in the Ritz-Carlton, Portman on the first floor. Executive Sous Chef Davide Mastrangeli shared with us that the inspiration comes from Japanese Itamae cuisine. In addition to being able to taste fresh dishes at the first time, you can also appreciate the artistic creativity of the chef and bartender up close. Chatting and interacting with the two about dishes and drinks also makes the dining process interesting. I. Prelude｜Selected Appetizers 🐟Pickled anchovies, black olives, tomatoes 🐂Beef tartare, porcini, black truffles Mari e Monti means "sea and mountains", so both snacks open the taste buds with a refreshing taste, allowing the taste of mountains and rivers to collide in the mouth. 🍃Wine pairing - Mint Elixir Based on gin, ginger and chrysanthemum, paired with mint leaves, it is refreshing and refreshing. II. Prelude | Ham and melon🍈 Different from traditional Iberian ham, this time duck ham is used to cook melon, and then paired with goat cheese with a strong milky flavor. While being rich, the unique sweet and fragrant taste of port wine also makes the taste light and fragrant. 🍃Wine pairing - Turin melon Specially blended with gin, melon liqueur, grapefruit juice, etc., the emerald green color looks like a quiet pool of water under the light. The first taste is a strong gin flavor, and the aftertaste is full of sweet melon fragrance. III. Interlude | White sauce pasta🍝 According to the chef, this Carbonara is a classic dish of Rome, with fried pork skin and pasta on the top. The taste is not that crispy, but slightly soft. The bottom layer is cheese mixed with fried bacon. The two are mixed when eating. Since I rarely eat fried food, I gave this dish to my friend. 🍃Wine pairing-Pinot Gris & Jasmine As the straightforward name suggests, Pinot Gris white wine blends the elegant aroma of jasmine and is refreshing IV. Xuan Xu｜Stuffed squid🦑 I personally like this dish very much. The seasoned rice is stuffed into the squid, and the thick tomato salsa next to it is accompanied by the aroma of fennel. It is soft and chewy, and full of sticky satisfaction. The chef said that this is a dish he made with his mother since he was a child. The taste of love is particularly touching. 🍃Wine pairing - Italian tomatoes Italian liqueur, homemade pure tomato juice, and a few drops of olive oil, with a slice of sun-dried tomato, echoing the tomato flavor in the dish V. Final Chapter｜Honey pear and chocolate🍫 The inspiration comes from the small town of Acceglio where the chef vacations. Chocolate and honey pears are the characteristics of the Pedemonte region. The sweetness of pears makes chocolate and cakes refreshing. The ancient Roman chocolate prints are also amazing, and it is also good for a proposal on Valentine's Day. 🍃Wine pairing - Verona Coffee Martini The taste comes from coffee martini, vanilla liqueur, etc. The first bite has a similar feeling to Baileys, but with a hint of strong wine and coffee flavor. #Romantic dating restaurant #Local food #Eat a seafood feast #Really delicious snacks collection

- Davide Mastrangeli, Executive Sous Chef of The Portman Ritz-Carlton, Shanghai, draws inspiration from Rome's long traditions and culinary culture, integrating authentic Italian cuisine into life. This year's "Taste of Rome" Season 2 menu returns with the arrival of midsummer. Drawing on the concept of Japanese Omakase cuisine, we sat on high stools around the oval center island bar. The inner ring of the center island is the cooking area. While chatting, we closely admired the culinary art and exquisite bartending skills performed by the chef and bartender. This is a unique dining experience that creates a more intimate and interactive experience. Davide innovatively designed the five-course Italian flavor of "Taste of Rome" Season 2 with the gift of nature and the beautiful memories of childhood. The simple, exquisite but highly expressive presentation interprets the seasons and culture of Italy to guests. Mr. Sun Weihao, the deputy manager of beverages from Shandong, said that he will combine the characteristics of the three places to jointly present five cocktails. I Appetizer A selection of appetizers paired with mint panacea Pickled anchovies, black olives, tomatoes Beef tartare, porcini, black truffles Meaning the sea and the mountains, it is a refreshing start to the trip to Rome. The cocktails are also very restrained and oriental. II. Prelude Ham and melon paired with Turin melon Duck ham, melon, port wine, basil, goat cheese Ham and melon are salty and sweet, which is a classic Italian dish. This time, duck ham was used, which brought a different sense. The cocktail blended with melon and Italian gin is refreshing and sweet. III. Interlude White sauce pasta with Pinot Grigio & Jasmine Carbonara is a classic dish that is iconic in Rome. Eggs, cheese, cured pork and pasta are mixed and seasoned with lard to create this famous Italian recipe. This time, the chef specially improved the recipe, fried pasta and pork skin, and the special presentation method is a bit interesting. The jasmine aroma in the white wine suppresses the heaviness of this pasta. IV. Recitative Stuffed baby squid with Italian tomatoes Making stuffed squid with his mother since childhood is the chef's interpretation of "maternal love and good memories". The bright red and sweet Italian tomatoes are made into cocktails, and both are delicious with stuffed squid. V. Finale Honey pear and chocolate with Verona coffee martini Acceglio is a small town at the top of the Alps, located in the Pedemonte region, about 30 minutes from France. The chef's family spent their summer vacation there and discovered the amazing honey pears in the town, especially a shop near their residence that made honey pear chocolate cakes that made him unforgettable. In order to express his nostalgia for his hometown, he incorporated this dessert into a modern style to pay tribute to his summer resort town. The combination of Verona coffee and ice cream is fragrant and rich.
