KIBOU Japanese Kitchen & Bar in Oxford launches new afternoon tea

Award-winning KIBOU Japanese Kitchen & Bar in Oxford launches a new Japanese-inspired afternoon tea.

Beautifully presented, KIBOU’s afternoon tea arrives on an eye-catching 3-tiered stand and includes tasters of many of the restaurant’s most popular dishes, including a range of sushi, sashimi and traditional Japanese sweets. There is also a vegetarian afternoon tea menu available.

Enjoy dishes such as tempura prawn California roll, salmon tataki with mango salsa and sea bream nigiri, followed by decadent shichimi chocolate tart, cinnamon & apple gyoza and traditional custard dorayaki with strawberry compôte.

Priced at £19 per person for the vegetarian version and £23 per person for the classic, this elegant afternoon tea is served as standard with a choice of Japanese teas and infusions – such as delicately fragrant jasmine or the sweet and nutty notes of genmaicha – green tea with toasted brown rice.

Or guests can choose from a selection of accompanying drinks packages, including a glass of Taittinger Brut Réserve Champagne, signature KIBOU cocktail or Junmai Tokubetsu sake, known for its creamy character with notes of pear and banana.

Alongside this, KIBOU will also offer a matcha tea option, which includes a bowl of steaming matcha tea hand-whisked at your table.

A stylish way to spend the afternoon and a great gift idea, KIBOU’s afternoon tea must be pre-booked and is available Sunday to Friday from 2pm to 4pm.*
