Weekend Teatime Classics at 10 @ Claymore (Pan Pacific Orchard, Singapore)

In Chinese tradition, the Lunar New Year lasts for 15 days. If you are looking for somewhere to catch up with your family and friends this February, why not meet for a casual afternoon high-tea? Not everyone has the same taste, so buffets are usually better in catering different individuals' preferences.

The Weekend Teatime Classics at 10 @ Claymore in Pan Pacific Orchard, Singapore is a brand new afternoon high-tea buffet, and offers a wide variety of dishes. From meat, seafood, vegetables, local delights to desserts, it is sure to please the young and old.

Veggies/ Tofu

For someone like me who likes my veggies, the Yong Tau Foo was certainly one of the highlights of the buffet. I especially loved the clear broth that went with the tofu and eggplant. Did you know that egg plant is super high in antioxidants?

I sometimes over-indulge in desserts at tea buffets and then regret later. But over-indulging in this dish certainly won't make me regret! :)

Noodles

If you have read my reviews before, you will know that while I don't mind having some spices, I just cannot take it. In Chinese, it's called 心有余,而力不足 (in English: the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak).

Hence, I would say that this Singapore Laksa was one of the best I have ever had. The broth was flavourful and the spice level was just right. Of course, if you like your chilli, just splash some on!

Don't miss the award-winning Peddlers' Famous Char Kway Teow either. There is good wok hei in this dish and (don't say I say) feel free to get your extra hums too. :)

Meat & Seafood

I have been to 10 @ Claymore several times, and their meats never disappoint. The USA Lamb is succulent, and one of the must-haves - especially if you are a carnivore.

I have friends who like to take lots of seafood to make their buffet more value-for-money. So if you are one of them, remember to get your Fresh Prawns too.

Dim Sum

Light bites are aplenty here, and it's nice to have a little Har Gao or Spring Roll while chatting with friends. 

I am not sure about you, but I dislike talking with my mouth full. Imagine a friend talking to you, but you cannot reply cos you are still busily chewing through a tough piece of beef. Damn sia suay (embarrassing), I tell you.

Desserts

What's a high-tea buffet without desserts? I would highly recommend the Homemade Charcoal Scones. It's not overly sweet and I love the dense (yet light) and crumbly texture. They certainly went well with the strawberry jam!

Overall

Overall, the Weekend Teatime Classics at 10 @ Claymore offers a good variety. The cosy ambience also makes it a great place for a nice slow catch up with family and friends.

Available on weekends from 12nn to 3pm at $48++ adults/ $24++ for children, it is also one of the most value-for-money high-tea buffets around in town. Go give it a try too and let us know how you rate it! :)
