Dropped by Carpenter and Cook for a nice afternoon tea since it's quite near my place and I'm a huge fan of sweet treats 🍬 Ordered the chocolate sea salt caramel tart, passionfruit meringue tart, lemon cream tart as well as a lovely pot of rose with french vanilla tea to go with them.
Everything was nice but the passionfruit meringue tart stood out the most to me because I've never tried it before and it's a perfect balance of sweet and citrus zest. Very refreshing! The chocolate tart was not as mind-blowing as I expected it to be but still good! Very rich, and I love the touch of sea salt on it as it really brings out the flavours.
What struck me the most was the decor of the place! Lots of wooden furniture and random vintage knick-knacks, I LOVED IT. Very quaint and cosy! Plus, great service. Prices are rather steep though for the portions, but overall a nice place for a lovely afternoon catch-up. ✨
