Scones & Macaroons
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 3/5
Taste: 1/5
Overall: 2/5 - The Macaroons are bigger than the usual one that I used to have at T'forty Two. But they are just too sweet! The scones are quite delicious with full of raisin but sadly they do not serve the Devonshire cream like what they have advertised in the deal.

Chocolate Truffle
Outlook: 2/5
Creativity: 2/5
Taste: 1/5
Overall: 1/5 - OMG! I believe the only ingredient in this cake is sugar.

Pesto Chicken Bruschetta & Grilled Vegetables Caramelized Onion Bruschetta
Outlook: 4/5

Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 3/5

Soya Green Tea @RM6.00 - Extremely delicious! I really hope it is bottomless. LOL

Homemade Tofu Cake @RM9.00
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 5/5
Taste: 5/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 4/5 - 2 persons dining in a cafe but ordering 5 desserts. Wahahaha...so happy when seeing all these dessert on our table. However, we are advised by the waitress to eat in order. She highly recommended us to start with this first. I am telling you that this is the best ever cake I had in my life. No joke! I can eat another one because it does not make you feel full at all. Seriously, I do not even wish to share with May Lynne at all and I know she had the same thoughts too. Not sweet at all. Just well enough for you to crave for more. Excellent dessert!

White Chocolate Semifreddo @RM12.00
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 5/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 3/5
Overall: 4/5 - This is the second dessert that we are advised to eat. So we took the first bite. It was so sourish and have the feeling this is a real bad dessert. But after the second bite is all different story. The sourish taste is from the sour cream which is wrapping around the vanilla ice cream which is hidden inside. When you scoop the ice cream together with the sourish cream and eat, the taste was truly amazing. Sourish taste from the cream and the sweetness from the ice cream are compensating each other and blending so well together which you do not feel either of the taste is to be superior in your mouth. Outstanding experience! Never know a dessert can be this fun!

Dacquoise @RM12.00
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 5/5
Taste: 4/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - A dessert from France and it is made of almond mergue and buttercream. The green color cream is obviously the green tea. I think it is not a bad dessert but just too bad only two pieces and already cost RM12.00. Anyway, it is a MUST TRY!

Irish Cream Pecan Cheesecake @RM12.00
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 1/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 2/5 - After 3 delicious desserts, our expectation is getting higher. Unfortunately, a HUGE anticlimax after we tasted this dessert. The Irish Cream carries too much bitter taste which is spoiling our taste bud. I do not feel that a bitter taste should ever exist in a dessert or the very least for a dessert which expected to have alcohol in it. For this one, is real wrong for us. Unfortunately, no matter how I forced myself I couldn't finish it. May Lynne was even worst, she left everything for me after the first bite. After I criticized her only she got herself another two bites. Grrr...

Rum Mascarpone @RM12.00
Outlook: 4/5
Creativity: 4/5
Taste: 2/5
Price: 2/5
Overall: 3/5 - Here comes the final dessert. We are advised to eat this dessert in a tiny scoop. I understand what is the concept they are trying to bring into this tiny jar. This is their so called the "jar of taste" where they are putting sourish taste from the raisin, sweet taste from the chocolate bits, slightly bitter taste from the rum and salty taste from the pistachio nuts. Unfortunately this "jar of taste" is totally covered by bitter taste. Whenever I ate the raisin, the bitter taste roam all over my mouth. No sourish taste as expected. I do not understand why is it happened and once again our taste bud was ruined. We thought of ordering another two desserts after these which are Almond Homemade Tofu Fah and Chocolate Molten Cake but we have to call it a day since we do not have anymore appetite to eat.

Ambiance: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Food Serving Speed: Fast
Will I Revisit?: Yes!

Appreciating a cup of English Breakfast by Boh Tea, our locally most famous tea brand. They have other tea selections as well.

This afternoon tea set is for 2 pax inclusive a pot of tea which cost at RM80.00++. You can add more tea bag or refill the water without additional charges.

Close up on the first tier which are their delicious tarts. Most of their tarts are made by strawberry. The strawberries are fresh from Cameron Highland.

3 different types of delicious sandwiches on the second tier.

The last and the third tier is my favourite, the scones! The scones are delicious, the chocolate are more to a little bitter which is just perfect for my liking and the strawberry jam is real fresh. However, what I like the most is their fresh cream. I refilled 4 times for it. I just cannot get enough with them. Best accompany with the soft and tasty scones.

Ambiance: 4/5
