We should feast every weekend: A&F hunks and Cova Pasticceria

I'm sure many of you have already seen pictures of hot guys with hot bods all over social media platforms. I had to jump on the bandwagon because... I mean, hot guys!

These guys are representing Abercrombie & Fitch (or A&F!) and are selected from A&F stores from all over the world.

So when Sam suggested that we go to Knightsbridge (270 Orchard Road), where the soon-to-open A&F store is, to ermm... welcome the guys to Singapore, I said "Sure!"

Here are the prized photos. Ah, don't be jealous...

The guys are super friendly so although I felt awkward at first, going up to them for pictures, I soon warmed up to them.

A&F will be officially opened on 15 Dec, 10am, by the way! I've been invited to the media preview on 14th... but... I'll be in Japan then, so I had to give it a miss. BOOHOO.

Anyway, after the ehem, feast... we met up with Char for another feast - at Cova Pasticceria. Not my first time there, but it still is one of the high tea places that I really like.

Ordered Christmas tea because it's Christmas soon and I'm a sucker for trying new things.

Finally, a picture of three of us!

High tea at Cova Pasticceria at Paragon Shopping Centre

Interestingly, just a day after editing Peiying's article on high tea venues in Singapore, The Boyfriend suggested that we meet up for high tea (he didn't know that the article was in the pipeline). And we went to Cova Pasticceria at Paragon (which is also featured in the article). There are both indoors and semi-alfresco seating. (Semi-alfresco as in outside the restaurant, no ceiling, but still indoors).

Five different tea sets were available and we opted for the Imperial (at $20) and Royal (at $22) sets. My BFF came over to meet us too and opted for what I believe to be a basic set (at $14).

It was a treat for the sweet-tooth (which we weren't). I think the pastries were great, the sandwiches were fine, but the cakes were a little too sweet for my liking. I think the next time round, we'll go for the Royal set and Classic set (comprising of a selection of sandwiches).

With every set, you get to choose from a selection of fruit juice, tea and coffee. I went for the Assam.

We had lots of fun overall because the ambience was serene yet non-intimidating. The servers smile all the time, which set a relaxed and joyful mood to the place.

The Boyfriend and I have made a resolution to go for a dim sum buffet next. Can't wait!

Where's your favourite high tea place?
