T
he Langham, Jakarta presents the sophisticated grand café ALICE, a new gourmet European rendezvous offering scrumptious brunches, the most elegant afternoon teas, and exquisite dinners.
Located in the heart of Jakarta, ALICE opened its curtain on March 9, drawing inspiration from Lewis Carroll’s timeless British tale Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, published in the same year The Langham’s flagship hotel opened in 1865.
ALICE is as playful as it is elegant, embracing the moment with artistically presented food and beverage against a stunning Art Deco-inspired interior with chic French music as a stylish soundtrack.
“ALICE brings to life the culture of the quintessential British afternoon tea and serves as a gourmet rendezvous to celebrate the everyday from morning until evening for the city’s tastemakers and their loved ones,” said Alexander Poindl, general manager of The Langham, Jakarta.
Combining the authentic afternoon tea with a modern touch, ALICE is home to the classic yet sophisticated LANGHAM Afternoon Tea. The selections of dishes are as decadent as they are mouth-watering, ranging from the French appetizer of Smoked Salmon Vol Au Vent and the ultimate Brioche Truffle Egg Topped with Caviar, to one of the bites from Chef Giles Langford mother’s British recipe handed down from generation to generation, and the renowned Wagyu Beef Tartare served in Parisian bistros.
Utilizing the finest seasonal ingredients, the Lobster doughnut tantalizes the taste buds whilst perfect desserts inspired by the beauty of flowers and Indonesian forest will satisfy any sweet-tooth including an opulent Valrhona Chocolate cake which enchantingly melts perfectly with every bite, sweet pink Rose Macarons - the list reads like a treasury of classic French desserts.
The legendary bespoke afternoon tea that was served over 150 years ago in the flagship Langham is served with an enticing Tea Collection featuring a meticulously selected range of teas blends from the aromatic fresh brewed Earl Gray, citrus fruits flavors of the African plant rooibos, exotic four fruits rouges flavored black tea, sencha fukuyu green tea and jasmine tea with the rich notes of fruit cocktails and sprinkling of flowers.
ALICE is also perfect for getting together with premium handcrafted manual brew coffee, made by Langham special beans using the balancing Syphon Gold and Aeropress machine for consistently brewed fine coffees. A glass of fresh fruit cocktails; a bottle of sparkling or Champagne are also perfect to pair in an idyllic Grand Cafe setting.
Guests are also invited to indulge in a luxurious sharing experience with the new ALICE all-time favorite; a signature Billionaire burger served during brunch and dinner time.
