Easter-themed Afternoon Tea at the Peninsula Manila

My Peninsula Manila membership includes a voucher for afternoon tea for two at the lobby. I was going to be in Makati with both my mom and my brother so I thought that it would be a great time to use my voucher. The last time I used my voucher, it was just me and my mom and we weren't able to consume the whole set so I knew that the afternoon tea set could actually be shared by three. (It comes with two coffees so we ordered one more.)


Since we were there close to Easter weekend, we got to enjoy the special Easter-themed tea set. The top tier included a pastry with bunny ears, another with a sunny side up egg decoration, a green macaron (I assume the green color symbolizes new life and maybe also the grass where Easter eggs are sometimes hidden during Easter egg hunts), and carrot cakes with a carrot slice decoration (because bunnies supposedly eat carrots). The special design really did make our set more fun to eat.


The Peninsula Manila lobby is usually full on weekends so I'm quite happy that we managed to get a table when we were there. I have also written about this before, but this might also just be my favorite lobby of all hotels I have visited in my life (whether locally or abroad).
