1. Sticky Toffee Pudding in terms of presentation is beautiful. Like if it were a person, whenever he walks by, everyone cannot stop and stare. But in terms of taste… because they are superrrr generous with the caramel sauce it is too sweet. With that being said, the cake was divine, paired with the ice cream.
2. They have great espresso. Please give it a try if you do enjoy espresso!
3. Nice ambience.
4. Great service.

1. For the sticky toffee pudding, I think the caramel sauce would be better to be served separately, this is to prevent oversweetness especially those who enjoy their dessert but not too overwhelmingly sweet kind of dessert.
2. This place is on the pricier side, but in terms of taste, ambience and service you get what you pay for.

1. We love the shrimp summer rolls! The rolls itself is already great and refreshing, but with that peanut sauce dipping. It’s the equivalent of having a crush on someone, and then finding out he/she likes the same books and bands as you do. MAGIC. They. Instantly. Become. 120%. More. Attractive.
2. Grilled Chicken Skewers Vermicelli was great. Perfect for sharing for two, because the portion is indeed generous. Get another main course or order an extra appetizer if you want to share this. We love the fried shrimp rolls. Super flavourful. However, the chicken skewers could do more seasoning. It is good, but has the potential to be great.
3. Friendly, attentive and fast service. The waitress seem to remember all of our orders despite actually writing it. Props to her!
4. Great ambiece to have a lovely brunch, lunch or dinner.

1. While the Shrimp Summer Rolls is already fantastic, we wish it was a tad bit more generous on the coriander. It never hurts to enhance the flavour with coriander.
2. Pomelo Salad with Seafood is not the best pomelo salad we have had so far. It lacks the tanginess from the pomelo and the flavour was more on the safe and subtle side. While you might enjoy it if you prefer a more subtle Pomelo Salad flavour, I prefer it a bit sweet with a punch of sourness and spiciness.

1. Various options for shabu-shabu, meat and drinks. You can just take it yourself, but for premium package the meat would be brought to your table.
2. Great that they have infused water here.
3. Lots of vegetable selections.
4. Friendly and attentive service. The waitress is able to explain well the menu which is always great especially for first-timers, like me. Also, would be better if you book your visit in advance.
5. Nice ambience. While you might be distracted with all the food and lots of people during peak hour, but you can actually see that the ambience is nice. It’s spacious and comfortable to be in.

Personally, I wish the sauce selection was better. I think what separates one AYCE and another besides the quality of the meat is the sauce itself. While the spicy sauce was enjoyable, I think the ginger (not sure if this is actually ginger?) was a tad too dominant for my liking. But you can cut the strong taste by adding a bit of chilli and customizing the sauce.

1. The calamari is great here! Maybe it’s the calamari itself, maybe it’s the seasoning or the tartar sauce that is refreshing. Or all of them combined. Quite surprising because we did not the calamari to taste this good. Definitely ordering this again when we come back!
2. Nice ambience. The place is laid back, chill and cozy without having a pretentious vibe.
3. Fast, friendly and attentive service.
4. Plenty of parking space available.

Wish the nachos had guacamole and sourcream! Though we do understand that would increase the price. But nachos without guacamole and sourcream is like going to Bali but not chasing sunsets. Still a great experience, but you are missing a key element. With that being said, nachos was still good. Will be back because of the food and cozy ambience!

Place: Panhead, Radio Dalam

Calamari 8.9/10
Nachos 7.8/10

1. The ambience! Hands down. This is also a plant shop so you are surrounded by greens while enjoying your favourite food and drinks. Plants of different sizes and shapes. It’s really a fun and happy place to be in. Great place to go and have great conversations with your favourite people.
2. Great deal for ice cream, I chose ogura and durian. They both have subtle taste that is enjoyable. But considering the taste it’s still a great deal.
3. Order the green lime pineapple if you would like to taste a refreshing drink. Next time I visit will order the food.

Parking space is limited althought it can fit 3-4 cars. So public transportation is preferable!
