| - One of my favorite experiences in Vegas! As a solo traveler, I was looking for a quiet break from the craziness of the city. Located on the 23rd floor of the Mandarin Oriental hotel, every seat has a fantastic view of the Strip below and the lounge is blissfully quiet. I was seated at a couch next to one of the floor to ceiling windows and enjoyed perfect service. I ordered the single tea service for $40, which included three plates: savory finger sandwiches, scones, and mini desserts. The star of the service was the buttermilk scone served with clotted cream (like a delicious butter) and raspberry jam. I also loved the curry chicken cone and egg salad croissant. The mini desserts were good, but not memorable. The tea service is very filling and definitely serves as a full lunch.
I chose the lychee tea to accompany the food, which had a wonderful depth of flavor. In addition, I ordered the Tea-tini for $18, which had bourbon, white tea, and a couple other light flavorings. This was a great addition to tea.
Can't wait to return next time I'm in Vegas!
