This is my first time here with family and the place was crowded. There is air-conditioning here so you won’t feel hot during a busy day. Even so, the glass windows are bright in the morning so it is hard to enjoy your breakfast when you are sitting facing it. The windows should be tinted to give customers a more pleasant experience.

For those bringing a baby or toddler, please be mindful of the 2 entrance doors because some customers do not close the door when entering or exiting the place and the staffs aren’t paying attention to the doors consistently. Your child’s safely rest solely on your shoulders.

The food arrived quite timely and it was delicious even though it lacked seasoning; The coffee tasted alright too.

Unsurprisingly, the food prices here are expensive (similar to Penang cafe prices) for the ingredients used and western breakfast served.

However, the service and table set up had me perplexed. There should be basic items on all the table (serviette, sugar/salt, chili/ketchup sauce, water bottle with cups, etc) for the customers to do some self-service. This will improve the service effectiveness of the cafe and I’m surprised it is not being integrated as a basic feature. I ended up standing up and walking towards the counter 5 times to ask the staffs for those table necessities which was embarrassing for myself so I can’t imagine what the staffs must be feeling to have to see the same customer so many times in one sitting.

Overall, I see this place as only suitable to come on a once in a while basis for large families with kids unless if you are by yourself or with a partner.

1) Lamb chop is super dry and hard to chew - first piece is still alright (the ones underneath the first piece is cooked till crispy and dry).

2) Trio Seafood Squid Ink Pasta - average. Not a wow factor despite being recommended by a lot of influencers online.

3) Chicken Chop - all the sauces ran out - had to go with the available ones. Great - juicy and tender.

Overall I believe there’s a few must order and popular ones - should try those instead. The food is really slow - took more than 30-40 mins to serve on a busy weekend

The environment is cosy and clean. The price is worth with the food portion. The food also fresh and delicious. The spaghetti is very special and tasty. We have again go try the breakfast also good, you can order 1 meal to share for 2 person.

One of the best gathering spot in sp where we can have good time and good food with relaxing ambiance. Food is in big portion and in good taste. Coffee are aromatic especially their signature latte which has roses flakes on top, is super special to have. Staff are well trained and always prepare to help. However the place gets abit noisy when there’s a big crowd.
