From an elevated Afternoon Tea to spectacular celebration cakes, newly appointed Executive Pastry Chef Yann Roumanille ushers in a summer of sweetness at The Lounge
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2023-Jul-11 — /Travel PR News/ — Explore a new selection of sweet offerings at The Lounge at Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur. Led by the bold vision and innovative artistry of Executive Pastry Chef Yann Roumanille, the team presents all-new dessert experiences, including an elevated Afternoon Tea and a reimagined menu of pastries and cakes.
With a career spanning traditional French patisseries, Michelin-starred restaurants and grand city hotels, Chef Yann now brings his famed “borderless” desserts to The Lounge. As he explains, “Our new creations combine global inspirations with local flavours. This way, international visitors can experience the vibrant tastes of Malaysia, while our local guests can enjoy world-class pastries that showcase staple ingredients in a whole new light.”
Debut of New Afternoon Tea
The newly crafted menu features a line-up of remarkable sweet treats, best enjoyed over a leisurely afternoon with family or friends. Savour the Mille-Feuille, an iconic French pastry reinvented with a mango-and-coconut twist, and the Frangipane Tart, a delectable composition of raspberry mouse and frangipani almond cream cake infused with pandan.
Taking inspiration from the famed honeybees of Bar Trigona, the Bee Amandier catches the eye with its sunny yellow exterior, encasing a tantalizing blend of almond cake, trigona honey and white chocolate. The Chocolate Brownies, too, boast a Malaysian flair, with the fruity notes of MK2 pineapple harmonizing delightfully with chocolate ganache and walnut.
The Macaroons, an all-time favourite in France, come in two innovative flavours — Teh Tarik (a signature drink at The Lounge) and caramel praline (handcrafted with hazelnuts). Also worth a mention are the Classic Scones, a British teatime classic, served with clotted cream, rose water butter and mango jam.
On the savoury side, discover a sensational interplay of textures and tastes, incorporating flavours from around the globe. Sample the Smoked Brisket, elevated with beef bacon jam, white barbecue sauce and yellow chive chiffonade, and the Konbi Egg Sando, a Japanese-inspired sandwich with Kewpie mayonnaise and togarashi mustard seeds. The Coronation Shrimp is accompanied by Masam Curry Yoghurt, while the Caramel Chestnut Chicken features surprising touches such as fig vinegar and dried cherries.
Channelling a glamorous yet playful vibe, the new Afternoon Tea is strikingly arrayed on a pristine white marble stand accented with rose gold fixtures — a chic reflection of The Lounge’s contemporary interiors. Showcasing legendary Four Seasons attention to detail, the carefully-determined height of the tea stand allows guests to see each other and converse effortlessly across the table.
Afternoon Tea is available at The Lounge from 3:00 to 5:30 pm, at MYR 222 per person.
