Plant-based eatery, Alibi Bar & Kitchen have shaken up their unique high tea, offering the tiered banquet to-go on weekends. 
 
Alibi High Tea Takeaway is an expansion of their in-house offering, with a selection of 100% plant-based sweet and savoury treats, best enjoyed with a friend alongside tea, coffee, or even a tipple of booze. There’s a whole lot more than your typical scones and jam (although they do make a feat); think pulled ‘duck’ pancakes, cashew meringues and strawberry tomato compote with basil ‘cream’, and valrhona raspberry chocolate.
 
The offering is available for pick up on Saturday’s and Sunday’s, and you pre-book via their website. Whether DIY’d into a picnic on the wharfs, in nearby botanic gardens, or the comfort of your own home, it’s the perfect weekend treat.
