In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Torito brings guests a meaningful culinary experience with its Pink October Afternoon Tea. We previously covered the 8-course dinner at this Peruvian restaurant in conjunction with National Ceviche Day.
Located high on Level 53 of Banyan Tree Kuala Lumpur, this elevated restaurant blends Japanese-Peruvian flavors and delicate pink desserts with breathtaking scenery of the city skyline.
Priced at MYR 110 nett per person, this limited-time afternoon tea set is available daily throughout October between 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM. A portion of the proceeds is channeled to the National Cancer Society Malaysia (NCSM) to support breast cancer awareness initiatives.
Starting with the savouries, Torito highlights its signature flair through a harmonious mix of Peruvian seasonings and precise Japanese culinary techniques.
Enclosed within flaky, buttery pastry shells, the Seafood Empanadas hold a delicately minced mixture of fresh prawns and octopus.
Vibrant and fresh, the seafood carries an intensely savory umami profile that sets a strong tone for the savory tier.
These crisp pastries come accompanied by a dipping sauce crafted from two types of chili. Aji amarillo, the “golden jewel of Peru”, brings a fruity warmth, while aji panca, a classic red pepper, adds a milder heat with berry-like undertones.
The bite-sized Chicken Avocado Cones combine guacamole, chicken, Japanese mayonnaise, and a touch of mustard inside crispy cones.
Bringing coastal flair to the table, the Japanese Crab Causa elevates potato salad with morsels of crabmeat. Layered within creamy, mildly spicy huancaína sauce, the blend provides a rich depth that accentuates fresh ocean flavors.
Bringing a refreshing crunch to the savory lineup, the Mini Prawn Tacos combine fresh prawns and green apples, bound together by kimchi-mayo emulsion.
Transitioning to the sweet course, the spread offers an array of pink-inspired pastries designed to delight both the eyes and the palate.
Timeless and refined, the Victoria Sponge layers delicate cake with rose Chantilly cream and sweet cherry confit.
Crafted with sophistication, the Vanilla Cheese Mousse hides a velvety core under a translucent hibiscus veil.
The Raspberry Delice celebrates classic berry profiles, marrying raspberry with white chocolate ganache to deliver an indulgent treat.
Presented alongside is the rose-shaped Strawberry Chiffon Cake, crafted for a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
Shaped like shells, Sakura Madeleines carry a gentle floral aroma. The sponge cake favors nuanced, natural flavors over heavy sweetness.
To round out the confectionery, Rose & Cranberry Scones come served alongside strawberry jam, raspberry curd, and clotted cream. They bring a comforting conclusion to the afternoon tea experience.
The afternoon tea set includes your choice of freshly brewed coffee or English tea.
Join in to support a wonderful cause while enjoying an unforgettable afternoon tea set high above the city skyline. To secure your table, you can contact Torito directly via WhatsApp or email.
