My school friends and I were having our annual meet-up and we planned to go for afternoon tea at Majestic Hotel KL, but unfortunately they were fully booked for that weekend. Afternoon tea at Maison Francaise has been on my list for a while, and since there has also been several good reviews about it, we decided to give it a go.
We were here on a Sunday, so there were also a few tables here for the Sunday Brunch. We were seated at a table by the window and it was quite a hot afternoon, so it got uncomfortably warm halfway through our afternoon tea.
The afternoon tea here is priced at RM38++ per person, and tea/coffee/drink has to be ordered separately. Afternoon tea is only available here on weekends from 2pm to 5pm. The afternoon tea was served on a white plate - there were 5 of us so we each got an individual plate, with 8 items on each plate. We were quite disappointed there were no tiers or even the tray stand that we saw on other blogs/Instagram photos. They also have a strict rule, whereby no food sharing is allowed.
The selection was uninspiring, and everything tasted cold. The few better items we had was the club sandwich with smoked salmon, and duck pate canape. There was also vanilla madeleine, cannele de Bordeaux, pear tart, chocolate mousse, goat's cheese canape and croissant. Pretty disappointed with these :( Thankfully, we had fantastic company and still managed to have a great afternoon :)
