Sunny Yen Afternoon Tea in Taipei at W Taipei

The theme of the afternoon tea set at W Taipei is the Taiwanese pastry sun cake. This means you get to try traditional local treats with a modern twist! The SUNNY YEN afternoon tea set at W Taipei includes 10 kinds of sweets and savories made with local ingredients, free flow tea or coffee for two and 3 glasses of cocktails and 1 glass of mocktail.

On top of that, the afternoon tea set is served at YEN Bar on the 31st floor of W Taipei with whooping views of the iconic Taipei 101.

Besides afternoon tea, YEN Bar also serves over 80 kinds of whisky, 90 kinds of cocktails and 100 kinds of wine along with modern Asian tapas.

For my cocktail, I chose Summer Solstice, a refreshing cocktail with pineapple juice, caramel syrup, herring liquor and fresh lime juice, which was just divine.I also had an Iced Latte, which was also very delicious. The sweet and savory treats were all exquisite and the quality was very good for the price.
