Taste buds are tingling with mangosteen as citizens of the world tuck into High Tea in the heart of the city at Zest Bar & Terrace from July through September.

The cosmopolitan, supremely convenient venue’s chefs engage the eye and palate alike with eight sweet and savory morsels starring The Queen of Fruits’ snow-white juicy fruit and tangy flavor.

Moreover, mangosteen is a healthy delicacy: low in calories and high in fiber, it’s got lots of essential nutrients with no saturated fats or cholesterol. Once temptingly described as “like the finest nectarine, with a dash of strawberry and pineapple”, it’s been credited with controlling heart rate, countering allergies and repairing the body with vitamin C.

So pass the afternoon well on the 7th floor of The Westin Grande Sukhumvit with:
• Grilled marinated chicken and mangosteen compote panini
• Avocado & mangosteen bruschetta
• Herbed quinoa and mangosteen salad
• Thai-style mangosteen clafoutis
• Mangosteen yoghurt panna cotta with vanilla beans
• Layered mangosteen compote with vanilla sponge
• Baked purple mangosteen cheesecake
• Mixed berry scone with mangosteen jam
Mangosteen High Tea steals the scene daily from 12:00-18:00 hrs. at Zest Bar & Terrace and is priced at THB 813 net per set for 2 persons with a 20% discount for SPG members and bookings through the hotel’s online store www.westingrandesukhumvit.com/en/store
Steps from BTS Asok SkyTrain and MRT Sukhumvit underground stations, chilling inside or on the terrace above the city, make the most of mangosteen’s fleeting season over high tea at Zest Bar & Terrace.
