A  delicious vanilla mille feuille

Sweet Tea rests on the top floor of Taipei 101.It is surrounded by all the big designer shops: LV, Prada, Burberry, Miu Miu and others.  Sweet Tea has a minimum charge of 380NT per person, but with a huge variety of drinks and delectable treats, it inst too hard to meet. 

Look at all that yummy goodness!

The vanilla mille feuille had a very crunchy and crispy puff pastry combined with a creamy vanilla custard. 

A floating Earl Grey tea, with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream. 

I love their tea pots, so reminiscent of ancient Asia. But one of the main reasons I love Sweet Tea, is that their teas are excellent. My favorite is their Jasmine, it's flavorful without being too overpowering.  

The Peach Caramel Cake was amazing. The caramel just complimented the sweet peach bits perfectly ,and the crunchy crust gave it a wonderful texture. It even had slivers of gold! 

Finishing the afternoon off with some a vanilla and chocolate choux pastry, a madeleine , an almond financier and a chocolate ganache cake.
