This afternoon tea, which brings the deliciousness of these two distinctive melons to artistic sweets and savory dishes, is a special treat only available at this time of year.
Melon Afternoon Tea THE LOUNGE
The red-fleshed melon boasts a rich, strong sweetness and mellow fragrance, while the green-fleshed melon boasts a refreshing, cool taste. This afternoon tea, which elevates the deliciousness of these two distinctive melons into artistic sweets and savory dishes, is a special treat only available this season. By combining ingredients that further enhance the melon's flavor, such as melon and cream cheese or melon and foie gras, we will introduce new melon flavors and surprises.
New Melon Flavors and Surprising Sweets
The pastry chef at Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi recommends the "Melon and Citrus Opera." This small opera cake features red-fleshed melon cream, almond sponge cake, and orange jelly, creating a harmonious blend of sweet, sour, and fragrant flavors. The design is based on a melon pattern, with flower-shaped orange passion cream, white chocolate droplets, and falling petals, creating a lovely and delicate dessert.
Another eye-catching dessert with a cute melon design is a combination of green-fleshed melon jelly and coconut mousse. The texture of the melon remains in the soft jelly, further enhancing the deliciousness of the melon. Enjoy the soft, melting texture and crunchy sable cookies, as well as the fresh texture that can only be experienced on the spot, as you immerse yourself in these sweets.
A melon soda made by a top hotel chef with a serious sense of fun
Melon is used generously in the savory dish as well, and combined with foie gras and maple cream, it has an adult flavor that goes well with alcohol. Garnished with bright red cherries, this dish imitates the melon soda, which is currently enjoying a resurgence in popularity. The green part that resembles the melon soda is made with spinach puree and smoked salmon rillettes, a hotel-appropriate choice, and the sparkling soda is layered with melon jelly and sour cream. Don't miss this opportunity to see the serious sense of fun shown by a top hotel chef. Enjoy an elegant moment with the brilliance of fresh greenery and soft sunlight shining through the large windows located 200 meters above the ground, and afternoon tea made with melon that can only be found at this time of year.
