Rose House Revisited

Wow, I cannot believe that i has been, basically, a year since we first visited Rose House @ the Miramar Mall in Taipei.

With a little time to spare the afternoon of the 27th, we decided to take the opportunity and revisit the place. You can say, David and I were both in the mood for WAFFLES - which is one of the place's specialty... besides the various exotic teas they serve, of course.This time around, we opted to share an order of the regular waffle with Honey Syrup and something a bit different, Waffles with Chicken Salad Topping. It was different alright... so different that I reserve my rights to not have an opinion about it. HAHAHAHAHAHA......

The Herbal & Fruit tea we ordered were delicious as always... and the service, Impeccable. The staff were just as pleasant, friendly and accommodating as the first visit... and the place just as relaxing, albeit country style girly. LOLs....

It was DEFINITELY worth the second visit. Photos Here.

Aternoon Tea: English Style in Taipei

Last week was such a busy week for us with work, work and more work - I was not ableto keep up too much with my blogging... even forgotten about our Tea Time Experience at Rose House till I was reminded by a friend who saw my flicker album on the whole experience... Not to say that it was not good... on the contrary it was lovely, as lovely as they come... I would even say that it would rival the ones I have had in some of the finest places in London....

I have seen the Rose House tea shop/cafe all over Taipei... it is a chain shop located in some of the busiest places in the city... One look at the logo and you right away would think of a chi-chi place to be and right off the bat - upon entering - you know you are in for a treat with the place's frilly interior: bone china in antique style wooden cabinets; floral paintings hanging on the walls; floral motif draperies; and most especially, the quiet, relaxing ambiance the place exudes -- truly an English style experience in Taipei.

Rose House offers a wide variety of teas, coffees and drinks, Rose House's signature rose tea and fruit teas are very refreshing. Each are served in a lovely bone china setting... complete with sugar sticks, honey & a biscuit. Most people definitely come here for the tea but Rose House also offers a selection of sandwiches, and a bit of meat dishes... we opted for the afternoon waffles with our tea.

The servers are pleasant and are impeccably dressed to serve. And serve they do with big smiles on their faces. Very attentive with all your needs and are most eager to clear your table to make it a whole lot more neater for you.

So if you're looking for a quiet place for an afternoon cup of tea and a chat with friends and/or family Rose House is definitely a great choice. But if you are more into loud music blaring in the speakers and people conversing like they are speaking with someone deaf the I suggest you do not come here.... and I highly recommend the one we dined at, located in the MIRAMAR Mall:
