Wickedly Fun Tea August 7, 2011

The KC Cafe will open its gates for a Wickedly Fun Tea after weekend matinee performances of 'Wicked,' with an assortment of teas, fresh lemonade, iced tea, light refreshments and a dessert decorating workshop. Executive Pastry Chef Ben McCormick has crafted a witch's hat dessert, made of flourless chocolate cake, for children to garnish with a variety of confectionery toppings while he shares design tips and tricks. In addition, the cafe is brewing a special Emerald City inspired beverage, green in color and contained in a smoking cast-iron cauldron, for the youngsters to enjoy. As children create their edible masterpieces, parents can delight in a tea of their own amidst breath-taking views of the metropolitan skyline. Wine and cava will also be available for purchase a la carte. KC Cafe's Wickedly Fun Tea series is priced at $20 per person, and will be held from 3 pm-5 pm after every matinee on Saturdays and Sundays from June 18 to August 21. Costumes for children are encouraged, space is limited and reservations are required. During the musical's run, Roof Terrace Restaurant will add a touch of wizardry to its dinner menu with a delectably enchanting dessert - Pistachio Mousse Cake, an almond joconde sponge cake with nougat cream and pistachio mousse, topped with a light green glaze and chocolate witch's hat for decoration.
