During my trip to Hong Kong, one of the main reasons I chose to stay at Mandarin Oriental was the chance to enjoy their English afternoon tea at a relaxed pace. When I saw the complete set of tea utensils, the three-tiered dessert platter, and the beautifully embroidered tablecloth, it felt like a special ceremony.
On that day, my friend took me to the largest beer garden in Bavaria: Königlicher Hirschgarten. We arrived around 4 p.m., and since it was still before the end of the workday, the place appeared quite empty. However, I heard that on weekday evenings and holidays, it can get incredibly crowded.
This restaurant was recommended by my friend, who had studied in Paris for many years. Being a gourmet, she told me that if I wanted to try the famous French dish, escargot, I definitely couldn't miss this restaurant, Le Café des Musées.
Café Constant, located near the Eiffel Tower, offers set menus that usually cost around €40 or less, with even more affordable prices for lunch. Considering the exorbitant prices in Paris, it can be considered budget-friendly. The best part is that the overall experience is surprisingly impressive!
