Last weekend, I’ve had an “artciting” afternoon tea and it was truly entertaining to watch some artsy chef turning half of our table into a whole new level of delectable piece of dessert-art while after having some scrumptious savoury bites of their latest menu.

As it is still one of the latest hotel in the city center and not everyone may have heard of it yet, the restaurant is situated 40 floors above the ground in Element Kuala Lumpur and it is also the latest sky dining venue in town that offers a stunning bird’s eye view of the city. The restaurant offers a delectable variety of food options – from healthy western-fusion delights to the coolest cocktail trends in town.

The savoury platter made its way with a dramatic entrance when it was placed on the table as the dry ice smokes its way around. The platter comes with 5 types of savoury bites and it looks as good as it taste!

Beef Mushroom Herbs Croquettes has a beautiful golden crunchy shell and the fillings were moist as you get some nice hints of minced mushrooms and beef.

Smoked Turkey Breast in Paris Brest was something fresh as Paris Brest are often served as a dessert stuffed with mousseline cream. Love love love.

Soy Glazed Portobello Focaccia would be loved by many vegetarian diners! I really love how the mushrooms were diced just the right size so you could get some good munch of it and distinctive flavors.

Red Pepper Tomato Macaroon was bursts with bright summer flavor. I know Malaysia is all-summer but you get what I mean! It was again something unique and fresh giving your taste buds some curiosity.

Salmon Apple Avocado in Basil Cone was one of a kind. This was actually one of my favorite among the five.

And what’s afternoon tea without scones? They’re light, airy and just the right amount of crusty surface which makes these scones absolutely perfect. The chocolate spread was delicious and Chantilly cream melts in your mouth instantly.

When it comes to their dessert, ‘Into The Forest’ was prepared by Chef Amelia which takes about 5 minutes to get the masterpiece done.

Voila! You know its godlike when the sun was shining in directly on this miraculous edible masterpiece and its just too good to be eaten. This piece of art contains Heavy Brownie, Toasted Marshmallows, Chlorophyll Crumble, Chocolate Soil, Mango Chutney, Fresh Strawberries and Light Cream. 

I love how the chocolate wasn’t too sweet which complemented the rest of the sweeter elements on this piece and the portion was just right. Not too much, not too little.

This afternoon tea would be the perfect venue for birthdays, couples and ‘girls catching up session’ as it is quiet and you’ve got your own little private space.

The price is RM 128 nett for 2 persons serving only on weekends and public holidays at 1 PM to 5 PM. Click here for more of TRACE’s dining offers or here for what’s serving in their restaurant!
