The Bar at Century Plaza

Step into a refined afternoon tea experience where timeless tradition meets the philosophy of Chinese wellness. Inspired by the balance of Yin and Yang and the healing principles of ancient Chinese medicine, our Afternoon Tea invites you to slow down, restore, and indulge. Each element is thoughtfully curated to harmonize flavor, beauty, and vitality—blending classic tea service with delicate Chinese influences. Enjoy a tiered presentation of house-made scones, refined tea sandwiches, and seasonal sweets, all subtly infused with Eastern ingredients and techniques. Choose your experience: • Classic Elixir Tea ($135) – Includes a glass of sparkling wine (or non-alcoholic alternative) and our signature tiered selection with Chinese-inspired touches. • Imperial Experience ($170) – Includes a glass of Ruinart Champagne or similar, paired with our elevated afternoon tea offerings. • Empress Prestige ($250) – Our most indulgent experience, featuring a glass of Dom Perignon Champagne, Osetra caviar service, fresh oysters, and a lobster sandwich alongside the full tea presentation. Complement your experience with our Signature Blends, crafted to reflect traditional herbal benefits: • The Empress (Beauty / Yin) – Snow chrysanthemum, wild goji, and rose bud. • The Emperor (Vitality / Yang) – Aged ginseng, red date, dried longan, and ginger root. • The Scholar (Balance / Detox) – 3-year pu-erh, lotus leaf, and licorice root. Whether for celebration or quiet indulgence, this is afternoon tea reimagined—where luxury, culture, and well-being come together in perfect balance.
