Chinese-Inspired Afternoon Tea at Huntington Beach’s New LSXO

It’s a beloved American tradition to enjoy Chinese food on Christmas Eve/Christmas as the majority of other restaurants tend to close on those days. If you happen to be putting together any local dining guides tied to the holidays, we would love for you to consider highlighting Afternoon Tea served at LSXO*—a unique restaurant-within-a-restaurant located inside the recently launched coastal eatery, Bluegold*—at Pacific City.

Inspired by Chef/COO Tin Vuong’s Chinese/Vietnamese heritage, LSXO’s Afternoon Tea is rooted in time-honored Chinese tea culture and features global influences with modern flavor pairings. Selections from the menu are listed below:

To sip:

·        Hong Kong-Style Milk Tea – black tea, evaporated milk, and brown sugar,

·        London Fog – earl grey Shanghai, vanilla syrup, and steamed milk

·        Chai Latte – Masala chai tea, milk, and vanilla

To snack:

·        Open-Faced Roast Beef Finger Sandwich – watercress and roasted garlic aioli on a toast point
