Home's Cafe White Coffee

There is a new makan place found at D'Plazza Mall which is located in Bayan Baru- Near Sunshine Square and Sunway Tunas. You can find this new stretch of shop lots just after Sunshine Square as you head towards Pisa. The place is quite huge but so far I have only see 3 shops that have occupied the place. One of it is Home's Cafe.

Place is somewhat similar to Oldtown selling coffee, toasted bread, and other food such as nasi lemak and noodles.I have been here 4 times already. So far what is my favourite here is their Nasi Lemak and Cheese Toast.

The Nasi Lemak here is good. Rice is very lemak indeed with that nice santan smell. It is served with Chicken Curry (lemak also), groundnuts, anchovies (ikan bilis), half an egg and some sambal tumis. Wonder full.

The Cheese Toast here is one of my favourites too and is also their proud specialty. Cheese toast comes in two choices. You can have it with onions or just plain cheese. The bread used is the thick toast type (Bengali Bread) and the cheese used is I think Mozzarella Cheese. So what they do is put butter, some mayonnaise and a lot of cheese on the bread before they toast it. So when it is served, it is all still hot and when you take your slice up, it's like as if your having some kind of sticky cheesy pizza. Lovely.

The other food items I have tried would be their Ipoh Hor Fun. Sorry the picture here is rather blur as I took it using my phone. Taste wise, it was alright. Just how it is suppose to taste like.

Then I also tried their Tom Yam Cintan Noodle Soup. Well I took a sip from my dad's bowl. How was it, this is what my Dad had to say "not sour enough, don't have that kick!" The same goes with their Assam Laksa which my Dad also tried today. Both missing that sour kick-ness.

Another type of toast I tried today was their Peanut Butter Thick Toast. It was quiet good for me. The bread came with crushed peanuts on the bread which made it lovely. Next up I shall try their butter kaya toast and their boiled eggs and toast.

Then here also they have Or Kuih (Yam Cake) which we tried also. It was alright.

For drinks, this is so far what I have tried. Their coffee products here are all Home's Cafe brand. What i found unique is their coffee flavours which they have in orange, strawberry and blackcurrant flavours. Something different right?

Comparing the Home's Cafe Orange with coffee and their Home's Cafe Blackcurrant Coffee, I think I like the orange better. My first visit I ordered the iced Home's Cafe Orange coffee, but today's visit I accidently ordered their Ice Blended Home's Cafe Blackcurrant coffee. I did not quiet like it as firstly, the ice was not blended well. Each sip I took, I had to chew on the ice. Could not enjoy sipping my drink. Then since it was ice blended, the coffee taste kinda got watered down (diluted) that it did not have that strong taste anymore. I think best I stick to iced coffee style and not ice blended here.

If you are a coffee drinker but do not want it sweet, here they have Home's Cafe Sugar Free Coffee. Not too bad. This has become my Dad's regular drink here.

If you are not a caffeine drinker, they also have other drinks available such as fresh fruit juices, yogurt smoothies, honey lemon and ice blended drinks such as lychee and mango.

Quite a good place to come and eat. Come and try it out for yourself and let me know what you think. I would say, place has potential especially since it is near the factory area, lunch hour should be pretty busy. Happy Eating.

The Tea Boutique

Today since Ed was not around, I was out with my parents and we came across this place called The Tea Boutique. It's located at the ground floor of The New Bob Centre along Gottlieb Road. Place is actually owned by Winter Warmers but I do not know why they name the place The Tea Boutique.

The interior of the place gives you a nice cosy feeling. As you enter, there is a fountain and two puppies playing (statues). Then as you walk further in there are cabinets filled with all sorts of Tea Cups for sale. Gives you that English country type of feeling. As you walk futher in, the place is divided into two. On the right side, they have all their tea products on the shelfs for customers to buy. On the left side you will find small sofas for customers to sit. I was rather excited to find this place. It's usually hard to find nice tea time spots to indulge these days.

After going through their menu, this is what we ordered.

Our drinks ordered

Iced Peach Tea

It was served with a small champaine glass with a small jug. Just exactly how Winter Warmers serves. The peach tea was good. It had a nice peach intense taste to it and was very refreshing.

Hawaii Fruit Cocktail Ice Tea

Tea was served the same way as the Peach Tea. It had bits of apple in the tea. Taste wise, good but after trying the peach tea...I would go for the Peach Tea next time.

Ice Coffee Float

Something hard to find these days. Coffee with ice-cream. Awesome

Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich

The Teriyaki Chicken meat was a bit on the salty side but other than that, it was alright.

Ice-Cream Waffle

This was superbly good. Waffle served was nice and crispy on the outside. Topped with cream and two scoops of ice cream, it was certainly a good indulge to drown your sorrows.

Scones

Scones were good, but only complain I have is that the butter served was unsalted, so it did not bring out the nice melted butter taste on the scones.
