Enchanting Halloween Afternoon Tea at Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo

Starting from October 1, 2026, Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo invites guests to indulge in an extraordinary Halloween-themed afternoon tea at the scenic lobby lounge, Le Jardin. This unique experience combines playful, spooky motifs with seasonal autumn flavors, showcasing the essence of Halloween in every bite.

A Whimsical Selection of Sweets and Savories

The Halloween afternoon tea features a delightful array of pastries inspired by Halloween figures such as ghosts, mummies, and bats, alongside seasonal ingredients that reflect the delights of autumn. Upon your arrival, you will be treated to a delicious pumpkin soup that accentuates the vegetable's natural sweetness and richness, garnished with aromatic black sesame croutons shaped like bats, setting the tone for the Halloween experience from the very first sip.

On the top tier of this visually stunning afternoon tea, guests will find the 'Shine Muscat and Lemon-flavored Ghost Daifuku'. This unique treat consists of a whole Shine Muscat grape wrapped in a traditionally sweet white bean paste and soft mochi, paired with a lemon-flavored sable. Another standout is the 'Mummy Mont Blanc', crafted with cocoa almond covering a hidden cassis cream, enriched with sumptuous chestnut cream and chocolate. The subtle tartness of the cassis elevates the inherent sweetness of the chestnuts and chocolate.

Additionally, an enticing pumpkin cookie filled with black cocoa chocolate cream and topped with caramel sauce and hazelnuts can be enjoyed alongside a 'Purple Sweet Potato Pudding' drizzled with a tart raspberry sauce, each dessert embodying the playful spirit of Halloween.

Traditional Scones and Savory Dishes

The middle tier offers classic scones that have won the hearts of guests over the years. These include the beloved plain scone and the popular chestnut scone, served with traditional clotted cream and a special clotted cream flavored with chestnuts and walnuts, as well as a tangy cassis and orange jam for added flavor.

For the savory components on the bottom tier, the 'Root Vegetable Mosaic Frittata' showcases a beautiful arrangement of beets, purple sweet potatoes, and yellow carrots, baked to perfection with ham and parmesan cheese, and adorned with a decorative physalis resembling the moon. The 'Saffron Risotto Croquettes' capture the essence of seafood in every bite, while the 'Chicken Confit with Nuts and Apples' combines tender chicken, nuts, and mild sweetness from apples, beautifully complemented by the fresh tang of lemon and yuzu, served alongside crunchy croffles.

Last but not least, the 'Sanma Rillettes with Grapes', featuring the rich flavors of autumn mackerel blended with a creamy béchamel, is served with roasted eggplant and grapes, capturing the season's essence with notes of dill, Dijon mustard, and the delightful acidity of balsamic vinegar.
