The Teapot Cafe - Alas!

Finally! After so long, i finally got a chance to take pictures of food again! It was my sis's birthday last Friday and we wanted to go to Happy Days to celebrate but changed of plans. We went to Teapot Cafe located in SS2.

This restaurant was here for a very long time. So long that i can't even remember! This modest little cafe was opened by a Malaysian Datin (this story is according to my mom) who loves collecting all sorts of teapots from all around the world. From miniature pots to a pot shaped of a duck, this little eatery has all 4 walls of teapots.

This cafe is not high-class nor low-class, it has an ambiance of coziness and quietness to it. I always wanted to try this place but didn't have a reason to walk in. Just few days ago, i finally set foot to this cafe and i love it! The word i use to describe this place is modest. There is something about the modesty of this cafe that i just love. And i also love the cottage feeling of the cafe.

Alrite', let's talk food and service now.

The Service:
According to my sis who been there twice, said that the service is quite slow when there is a lot of people but the day i when, the service was quite satisfying. They serve their customers with a glass of water each as a complimentary.

The waitress is quite friendly and she's willing to explain the dish to you. So, the service for Teapot Cafe on the scale of 5 is 4.

The Food:

Ice Lemon Tea
Yeah.. I know. I go to Teapot Cafe and not order their tea?
However, their ice lemon tea is not the same as the rest.
You can actually taste the difference in the tea they use.
Their version to me is better cuz the tea they use is better.


Watermelon Juice
Not bad but personally, it is quite diluted.


Nescafe Coffee
Ain't a fan of coffee.
But i suppose, it's Nescafe coffee so, nothing special.


Egg Sandwich - Toasted
At first i thought it was just a small portion but when it came,
I got a shock!
Can't beat my mom's egg sandwich but this one is not
too bad either.


Chilli Fried Rice
Not really spicy as i thought it would be.
However, nothing special about it. It's not horrible,
just nothing "Wow" to it. Nicely fried, the rice is not too
hard or soft. I do wish the ikan billis (anchovies) to be crispier.


Fried Kuey Teow
Ginormous portion! That was my first thought.
Compared to your normal Char Kuey Teow from
mamak, this one is HUGE! I like their version - not too
salty, not too tasteless. Just the right amount of chewiness
and sweetness that I like.


Fish & Chips
Oh my! I finally found my favourite Fish and Chips!
Just the right amount for me. Their tartar sauce is delious!
The fish is rolled with breadcrumbs and then fried. Crispy!
Unlike some stores where their fish is smaller than it looks,
this one is "what you see is what you get" kinda fish.
The chips is just nice to the thickness and saltiness.

Chocolate Cake
What's a meal without dessert right?
Classic piece of cake - i find it kept too long actually.
The texture of the chocolate is not as smooth
which is an indication that it was kept too long.
But besides the freshness, the cake is yummy.

Overall, some of the food is so-so. I will come back to this place again just for the fish and chips and the atmosphere that i fell in love with. A recommended place for those who, like me, been around SS2 but have not tried this place, people who needs a little R&R and also for people to bring their moms to for a late branch. Perfect atmosphere.

P.S.: This is based in personal liking and taste. It may vary with different people.


Cheers!
