Toronto’s getting a decadent high tea pop-up to celebrate Lunar New Year

In the mood for something a little different this Lunar New Year? Holts Café is offering a pop-up afternoon tea experience at both of its Toronto locations with a delightful menu of savoury and sweet treats crafted by Holts’ esteemed chefs.

The menu items are classic high tea favourites with an Asian twist, like scones and toppings, bbq duck, milk cake, and egg tart paired with Sloane fine teas, a female-owned Canadian brand. The dishes are described as a combination of creative flavours and local produce.

Both the Yorkville and Yorkdale cafes are offering the high tea menus for takeout starting on January 26th and dine-in starting on January 31st.

Some of the mouthwatering items on the Bloor cafe menu include Peking duck and cucumber sandwiches, tofu Bahn mi, and five-spice crab salad. As for sweet options, you’ll get to sink your teeth into sesame balls, raspberry tartlets, mango and pomelo pudding, and more.

Now that indoor dining is making a comeback, you can enjoy your treats in the cozy and elegant Holts Café atmosphere, which is all part of the fun when it comes to high tea.

But, if feasting in your PJs sounds more appealing, there are plenty of Toronto restaurants offering special takeout feasts for Lunar New Year.
