There was no other reason why I tried Secret Garden. The name. I first noticed it in a Central World directory; forgot it, remembered it, forgot it again until last week in Siam Paragon while waiting for doors to open for the Twilight premiere. I'm not sure if this is a branch of the one in Sathon that everyone is talking about. As it appeared right in front of me while I wandered, and because I promised myself I would try the place, I got in. I was imagining a garden setting and a secret door.
Ahhh... too much novel reading. I sorted my order: pomegranate iced tea (which was too sour for my taste), and warm chocolate with vanilla ice cream and strawberry sauce, which I loved.
Coconut milk was evident in the warm chocolate cake. At least that's what I thought and I did enjoy it.
The only thing I didn't quite like were the backless chairs. I had to be seated in one as the couches were for four persons or more. Next time I will invite some friends to try the signature restaurant in Sathorn with me. I heard the decoration style is reminiscent of a lovely English tea room.
Looks like a nice place. There's a teahouse in Vancouver with the same name!

Sounds like a very special place to have some lovely desserts. I wouldn't care for a backless chair either.
ReplyDeleteI can see what you're saying about the backless chairs - no opportunity to get comfortablly lean back! Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteoh, man! that warm chocolate sounds super-tempting right about now!
ReplyDeleteI don't like backless chairs either, but I would sit on one for chocolate cake and ice cream!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!

Looks like a neat place though backless chairs is indeed uncomfortable. They should upgrade on that part.
ReplyDeletelook like a fun place. the desserts look good. it would be cool to bring a novel along, and nibble on your dessert while reading.
ReplyDeleteThe backless chairs do compromise the comfort level of that place. But the food looks so delicious.
ReplyDeleteA sweet place to relax and read books...
ReplyDeleteCalling by from the ABC Wednesday photo meme, you will never guess where I posted about on my travel Tales blog today, Siam Paragon! What a coincidence and you are a book blogger as well, off to add you to my blogroll straight away. :)
ReplyDeleteBy the look of it, I can taste sweetness and yumminess. The plating is awesome.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting name, the goodies looks yum!
ReplyDeleteHooray, I finally get my PC back so I am playing catch up with all of the S entries this week.
