\"Storied<\/a>This season, Anantara Chiang Mai Resort invites guests on a journey through taste, time, and tradition with the launch of\u00a0Whispers of the East<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 a one-of-a-kind afternoon tea collaboration between Executive Chef Natruthai Petsuwan<\/em> and third-generation Chef Pongsakorn Jiarasatit<\/em> of the Michelin-Plated\u00a0Jia Tong Heng<\/em><\/strong>. The experience is available daily from 1 June to 31 October 2025, between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm, at\u00a0The Verandah at 1921 House.<\/p>\n

Framed by the shaded verandah of the former British Consulate and overlooking the serene Mae Ping River, afternoon tea at Anantara Chiang Mai has long been a signature ritual. Each season introduces a new interpretation of the classic British tradition \u2014 infused with tropical flavours, local inspirations, and now, a refined Teochew twist.<\/p>\n

This summer\u2019s\u00a0Whispers of the East<\/em>\u00a0pays homage to Chiang Mai\u2019s Chinese culinary legacy. Chef Pongsakorn of Jia Tong Heng \u2014 one of the city\u2019s most iconic and beloved Chinese restaurants \u2014 joins forces with Chef Natruthai to reinterpret treasured family recipes into a curated tea-time indulgence.<\/p>\n

As one of Chiang Mai\u2019s oldest and most beloved Chinese restaurants, the Michelin-Plated Jia Tong Heng is a name synonymous with celebration. From its early days in Nawarat Market to its flagship Si Don Chai restaurant and new-generation offshoots in Fa Ham, Nimman, and Mae Rim, the restaurant has been at the heart of Chiang Mai\u2019s community dining for nearly 70 years \u2014 a symbol of family feasts, festive banquets, and cross-generational celebration.<\/p>\n

Now, in a first-of-its-kind collaboration, the family\u2019s beloved recipes are transformed into an elegant afternoon tea format with a modern Teochew twist. Guests can expect dim sum\u2013style savouries like\u00a0steamed buns filled with slow-cooked Moo Hong pork, alongside time-honoured sweets including\u00a0ow nee pae kuay cake\u00a0made from Chef Pongsakorn\u2019s grandmother\u2019s original recipe, and a striking\u00a0Chinese red date Mont Blanc. Traditional scones are served with clotted cream and preserves, alongside house-made tropical gelato and sorbet \u2014 a cooling signature of the resort\u2019s afternoon tea experience.<\/p>\n

Served on vintage blue-and-white porcelain reserved for special occasions, each bite is thoughtfully paired with fine teas and coffees. Beverage selections include sustainably sourced blends from\u00a0TWG\u00a0and local Chiang Mai roaster\u00a0Monsoon Tea, with favourites such as\u00a0Tha Pae Gate<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Mountain Breeze Oolong<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnantara takes great pride in celebrating each destination\u2019s cultural richness, especially through cuisine,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0says Executive Chef Natruthai Petsuwan.\u00a0\u201cJia Tong Heng is just down the road, and it\u2019s an honour to collaborate with such a local institution to craft something truly meaningful.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAs a proud ambassador of Sino-Thai cuisine, it\u2019s a privilege to reinterpret my ancestors\u2019 recipes for Anantara\u2019s guests,\u201d <\/em>adds Chef Pongsakorn Jiarasatit.\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s a collaboration close to the heart \u2014 and hopefully the first of many.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
