Artestiq, Mandarin Gallery

Intended to go to Antoinette with Belle Zer & Tsai, but the waiting time was 45 mins! So we decided to head up instead to Arteastiq, a little tea place cum art room! 


The decor/ setting was really pretty and lovely!
Even though they had tea sets that looked really good, we decided to go only for the desserts :)


This was the Adam in Wonderland- $14.90- two scoops of Premium Gelato of choice served with 2 slices of Arteastiq Famous Apple Cake. We decided this sounded too good to miss and gave it a try!
Ours came with Champagne Vanilla and Pear Tea gelato.


While we found the apple cake to be rather ordinary, the gelatos were fantastic! Would recommend these flavors for sure! They were light and unique, yet full of flavour. :)


One of our friends had the French Onion Soup, which I didnt try. But I think she liked it!


Fans of all things greentea, we also really wanted to have the Secret Garden- $12.90- Yuzu Premium Gelato served with Chocolate Green Tea Lava Cake. Sounds super novel right!


Here is a picture of the green tea within oozing out. I quite liked this although I felt that the green tea could be even stronger :) It got lost in all that chocolate at times. But the lava cake was moist, and oozing :)


And of course, we each had different drinks (they had a really extensive drinks menu) and they all sounded really good! I got the Chrysanthemum Tea with Wolfberry and Longan, while my friends got the Green Tea Latte, Hazelnut Latte and Lychee Tea.


I felt that the teas definitely stood out way more than the coffees, especially because they were so unique in flavour! My friend and I were more than happy to finish the entire pot of tea. :)
The green tea latte on the other hand, tasted sadly like hot milk, with hardly any discernible green tea flavour. :/


On the whole, would recommend this place as a tea spot! They have dessert teas or floats that you could try, given that the dessert list is slightly limited.
They also have a new brunch menu that looks pretty interesting :)
