Experience the Elegance of 'The Royal Rush Melon Afternoon Tea'

The Strings Omotesando, situated in the heart of Tokyo's Aoyama district, presents a delightful culinary treat this summer with the introduction of 'The Royal Rush Melon Afternoon Tea'. This exquisite event will be available from May 13 to July 14, 2025, at the elegant TAVERN by the Green on the second floor of the hotel. Guests will be swept away by the stunning contrast of greens and whites, showcasing seasonal domestic melons, perfectly complementing the lush scenery of the tree-lined streets of Omotesando.

The Royal Rush Melon Afternoon Tea promises an indulgent experience, epitomizing the flavors of the season. As you enter the venue, your afternoon will commence with a refreshing melon and lime granita, evoking the fresh essence of early summer. Following this, an array of seven exquisite desserts awaits, featuring a delightful melon tart, a charming mousse shaped like a whole melon, and a beautiful melon jelly served with panna cotta, each beautifully contrasting in green and white.

The savory offerings are equally appealing, including a Greek-style marinated dish of melon and cucumber, and the signature TAVERN special burger served on green buns. To round off the meal, guests can enjoy a hearty green salad loaded with nutrients and a rich seafood and vegetable gumbo soup, ensuring satisfaction without compromising health.

For the beverage selection, TWG Tea, a luxury tea brand originating from Singapore, offers a delightful variety of 16 different teas for you to complement your meal, including the option to enjoy sweet melon paired with a glass of champagne.

Those who wish to savor both an elaborate meal and an afternoon tea can opt for a special course that includes a mini-sized afternoon tea at the end of the meal. All of this takes place against the backdrop of Omotesando's beautiful green surroundings, providing an elegant setting for a luxurious tea time.
