Presented in an elegant birdcage, The Forbidden Tea invites you to step into a world of quiet whispers and hidden indulgence. Inspired by the Qing Dynasty tradition of songbird keepers who brought their caged companions to the tea houses – places alive with melody, conversation, and the sharing of secrets – this experience reimagines that union of refinement and intimacy for the modern age.
Each tier unveils a new chapter in this delicate ritual: from shrimp, spinach, and roast duck dumplings to crisp Wagyu puffs and smoked salmon rolls, every morsel is crafted with precision and intent. The journey concludes with jasmine coffee pudding and molten pistachio mochi, balancing fragrance, texture, and indulgence in perfect harmony.
A feast both visual and sensory, The Forbidden Tea is a celebration of connection and curiosity – a modern ritual where conversation flows as freely as the tea itself, and every bite sings with echoes of an old-world elegance once shared between friends, songbirds, and secrets.
