Le Salon de nina’s
After taking a long walk in the cold weather, we decided to have some hot drinks to warm up ourselves. Hideto, who is quite familiar with Yokohama brought us to this fancy tea place, Le Salon de nina’s in Queen square Yokohama where the Minatomirai (みなとみらい）station is. Their tea leaves are imported from France.
Looking at their menu while waiting for a place.
Ryoko ordered the Scone set which includes tea & scones at 1,200 Yen. Hideto & I ordered the cake set at 1,250 Yen.
My sunflower & papaya blended tea…
My tiramisu and Hideto’s crepe cake was yummilicious!!
Ryoko’s scones looks delicious too. Photo taken by Ryoko.
Added some milk for a last sip.
So judgement time..hmm..For a place specializing in tea, their tea tasted so so only..maybe I ordered the wrong one!? but their cake was good though *laugh*
Oh. They have a terrace where you can get a nice view of the huge ferris wheel in Yokohama. It’s pretty at night . I’ll definitely go for the terrace seat when the weather gets warmer…

the only times i drink tea is when I’m either at a Japanese or Chinese restaurant. otherwise, i have a cup of coffee in hand at all times. however, i would be happy to drink tea at a place that specializes in it. sorry to hear your sunflower/papaya tea was not quite to your liking. do you have a favorite flavor?
I like fruity or rose hip tea. The rose hip & hibiscus tea mix from Muji is good :) What’s your favorite flavor? oh. And I like Japanese green tea & Chinese tea too.
haha, to me, camomile tea is my best choice for most of the time especially evening or at night. other tea might give me insomnia :( those cakes & scones looks really good!
hv a wonderful weekend ahead. i’m going KL tis weekend to meet my beloved piao mui, yeah ^_^
ah. chamomile tea is soothing tea with calming effects yah :) Have a great weekend with your piao mui. Say hi for me too! Ask her to leave comments in my blog instead of just lurking around :p I know she might be reading this. hehe
Everything looks delicious here!! Let me see what flavor tea do I like..there’s chai tea. ginger tea, mint tea, chamomile tea, rosehip with hibiscus too
I love chai tea too & ginger tea too :)
