Winnie the Pooh Afternoon Tea

Following the success of its fairy-tale themed Once Upon a Time Afternoon Tea last year, the elevated lounge offers a uniquely-themed tea experience, inspired by the charm of A.A. Milne’s classic children’s tale. It’s a favourite of Canadians everywhere, as the character of Winnie was inspired by Winnipeg, a real-life bear that lived at the London Zoo a century ago. It was beloved by Milne’s young son, who renamed his teddy bear, and in the process inspired the creation of a children’s literature icon.
The Menu
Delectable sweet and savoury treats draw from the beloved fictional characters. Snack on Pooh’s Pot of Gold, which swirls cotton candy and honey crystals on popcorn kissed with burnt honey and sea salt; or Eeyore’s Blueberry Blues, Earl Grey-infused berry scones with clotted cream and preserves. Sweets include Piglet’s Big Adventure, a decadent coconut and strawberry dessert; Rabbit’s Radiant Carrot Patch cake with honeycomb dust; and the delightful chocolate, shortbread and ganache sandwich called Christopher Robin’s Surprise. Mr. Sanders’s Honey Smoked Salmon, Owl’s Treasured Terrine and Roo’s Royal Tartlet chicken salad are among the literary savouries.
Premium Champagne by the glass and the bottle, plus an array of o5 rare teas, quench your thirst for the adventures of Pooh and friends. Follow H Tasting Lounge on Instagram to whet your appetite.
