High Tea and Festival of Lights



It was my first time trying High Tea at the Fairmont Pacific Rim in Vancouver yesterday. The environment was nice and peaceful, and we were able to grab the comfiest chairs in the place. I made a reservation and we were able to choose whichever seats we wanted.  The food and tea was Asian inspired, so it was different than the usual Afternoon Tea. We tried the Jasmine pearl tea and the Oolong tea. Both tasted good, but after a water refill, the Jasmine Pearl tea became extremely strong for some reason.

I liked the uniqueness of the food, and it was really tasty, but if you're looking for the actual High Tea experience, this is not the place to go. There was also a lot less food than other High Tea places, but I wasn't complaining because my small stomach was satisfied.

Then, we went to the VanDusen Festival of Lights. It was the perfect weather to go because it was not too cold and it was not raining! This place is always beautiful, in the summer or winter.
