Lovely Lavender-laced Afternoon Tea at Up & Above Bar

Lavender is both a beautiful and versatile flower. Containing essential oils that have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, when used in cuisine the bloom imparts a delicate sweet floral flavour. Inspired by these attributes, Executive Pastry Chef Sebastiaan Hoogewerf and his talented pastry chefs at The Okura Prestige Bangkok have created a wonderfully refreshing Lavender Afternoon Tea at Up & Above Bar.
