Launched during International Women’s Day 2022, The RuMa presents a special afternoon tea session in partnership with leading timepiece retailer Swiss Watch. Each unique flavour on the menu is a representation of the strength, tenacity and sacrifice women have made thus far. The entremet, featuring Temerloh vanilla likened to a women’s versatility, tells a story of Malaysian pride. Meanwhile, the delightful combination of nangka and chilli illustrates the pushing of boundaries and driving change.

The New York-based fashion label teams up with TWG Tea for the third time to create an elegant afternoon high-tea experience inspired by its Spring/Summer 2022 collection—An Imagined Journey. Paying homage to Claire McCardell’s love of stripes, the prints and patterns from the collection express joy with unexpected colour combinations of green, fuchsia, red, blue and lavender. The afternoon menu reflects this as seen on the Lemon Bush Tea-infused cheesecake with a buttery biscuit base, topped with strawberry jelly or the Vanilla Bourbon Tea-infused peach crumble with crème pâtissière, vanilla tartlet and icing sugar.

4. Pamper your skin and palate with the Belif X Willow High Tea

When: 11 March to 3 April 2022; every Friday, Saturday and Sunday

Where: Willow at W Kuala Lumpur

Price: RM178++ per person

It’s never too late to celebrate the women in your life. If you couldn’t meet up on International Women’s Day, make plans instead to enjoy the themed Belif x Willow high tea set aimed at inspiring women to pursue goals and influence change without bias or barrier. Each tea set comes with an exclusive Youth Creator beauty set curated by Belif to nourish your skin and protect it from the first signs of ageing.

“I’m a firm believer in highlighting women’s voices and achievements throughout the year, but admit that we do need a special time of the year to remind ourselves of this. And sometimes, life gets so busy that we neglect to spend time with our mums, aunts, sisters, and female friends. The Belif x Willow high tea set is perfect for a girls’ day out—not only is it beautiful to look at (and for the ‘gram) with splashes of purple, it’s also really delicious with a variety of textures, plus a good balance of sweet and savoury treats. If you love berries as much as I do, you’ll also be thrilled at the inclusion of the season’s freshest berries in many of the desserts. After feeding your tummy and your soul, you’ll get to feed your skin too with complimentary skincare from Belif.”—Adelina Tan, Deputy Editor
