Tea Time at TWG Salon and Boutique Resorts World Manila

I have been to Resorts World a couple of times already either to watch a movie, listen to Draybers rock Bar 360, watch gamblers play poker or try out their luck in slot machines (yes just watched :) never tried any of those.. I know my capacity.. :p) or just sit and have tea time at TWG Salon and Boutique with a friend. 

By the way, TWG branch in Resorts World, Newport Manila is the largest branch that they have here in the Philippines. Compared to their branch in Greenbelt 5, the place is less "yellowish/golden" but it is surrounded by a long tea bar and huge shelves of varieties of teas of the world. 

Here's the picture of what I am talking about. 

That's the long tea bar behind me (that is where they prepare/brew the tea leaves)

The huge tea shelves (view from my seat)

Anyway, one Friday night, Luthie and I decided to go to Resorts World to watch Draybers perform at Bar 360. Luckily, Topher was also nearby studying at Bo's Coffee and so we invited him to join us. After Mitoy's performance (Draybers lead vocalist), we went around the casino. We got bored and decided to stay in TWG since we don't like to go home just yet. It was Topher's first time in TWG so we ordered something that we all haven't tasted yet. And for our orders we got the following:

raspberry muffins with cream and tea infused jelly

PARISIAN CRÊPE 

Crêpe filled with potatoes, turkey ham and Gruyère cheese tossed in a

French Earl Grey infused creamy béchamel sauce sprinkled with chives.

French Earl Grey Tea

I remembered I had a bad day during that time and my worries just fade away with every sip of earl grey tea. :) Topher was so hyper during that time and so we took a lot of pictures. The ambience at TWG is so cozy and so relaxing. The bright lights that illuminate from the chandelier just gives warmth to my tired body, mind and soul. :)

Forgive me, for the photo heavy entry. Enjoy!

here's the tea maker "brewing" our tea (they don't allow the customers to go near the bar because that is where their secret brewing happens)

and here's topher trying to score a kiss from me :P

the huge tea shelves that I'm talking about earlier
