This was an impromptu High Tea trip to Carpenter and Cook. As Nic was going overseas, he left his car with me over the weekend. Hence, we took this opportunity to go to a slightly further place for High Tea.
Thankfully, there wasn't any queue when we reach there. Waited for around 15 minutes for our turn.
There were just too many nice cakes and tarts to choose from the cake counter. It was a tough choice, and we ended up ordering the Lavender Bundt, Passionfruit Meringue Tart, Scone and Frangipani Tart.
Being adventurous, we were surprised that the Lavender Bundt actually taste quite nice. It may looked big and hard, but it was moist and soft inside.
Passionfruit Meringue Tart is the most popular item, there was no way we were going to skip it. The tart shell was very crunchy and the meringue is perfectly whipped. It was yummy and has a balance of sweet and sour taste. Definitely our favourite pastry among the them! Be sure to try it or regret it.
The fruit scone was served with cream and jam. It was quite soft and fluffy, but was a bit dry.
The Frangipani Tart has lots of berries and the texture is similar to madeleine.
Can't wait to get started!! =p

My glass of Iced Mocha!
In addition, we also ordered the Mushroom Asparagus Quiche. It was nicely toasted with a crispy layer on the outside. The egg custard fillings was soft and light, and it is one of the better quiches that we have tried!
The interior of the shop was decorated with vintage items!
Pretty cake counter
Camwhore time!
A great meal at Carpenter and Cook, if only it is more accessible to us. It is definitely a great place for a tea session with friends, or a place for couples to spend a laid-back afternoon.
