Posted by | | 0

Brace yourself to step back into your childhood as the Lennons Aussie Icons High Tea masterfully blends the cherished tuckshop treat flavours with gourmet cuisine for a new High Tea in Brisbane.

Your favourite childhood finger buns, those ones with the bright pink icing with a hint of whimsical musk, are just some of the stars, along with Lemon Drizzle Cake and classic Buttermilk Scones.

You might have thought the iconic pavlova couldn’t get any better, but Lennons surprises your palate with a coconut crunch and a touch of passionate passionfruit. It’s an elegant twist on the classics that will transport you back to those carefree days of lunchtime treats and grandma’s lovingly baked sweets.

Nestled in the heart of Lennons Restaurant & Bar in Hyatt Regency Brisbane, they’ve got sweet and savoury treats that’ll make your mouth do a happy dance

Reminisce with Every Bite at Lennons High Tea

Remember the good old days of the tuck shop and grandma’s house? These soft Finger Buns with just a hint of musk in the pretty pink icing that are just as irresistible as they were back then. One bite, and you’ll think that you’re back in the queue waiting for a lunchtime treat.

Of course, they haven’t forgotten the iconic pavlova. This bite-sized mouthful had had a little update with a coconut crunch and a touch of passionfruit. Yum!

The dense Lemon Drizzle Cake with its zesty icing is another bite-sized treat that will hit you right in the nostalgia feels.

Even your favourite vegemite scrolls make an appearance in a mini size with all the punch of vegemite and the delicious ooze of cheddar cheese. If summer is not complete for you without an ice cream sandwich in your hand, you’ll love the creamy, biscuity contrast of the ones that sweeten the deal at this new high tea in Brisbane.
