Indulge in exquisite patisserie including rhubarb and strawberry Tonka crumble, gold-flecked Jivara chocolate praline bars with chocolate chantilly, and raspberry choux filled with pistachio crème mousseline, all to savour while accompanied by a classically trained pianist performing elegant festive arrangements on the room’s grand piano.
