So here is the place. Not hard to be located as it is right below at the corner of Casa Tiara Service Apartments. Wi-fi is available with password protected. Parking here does not cause any problems at all because next to this apartment is the Carrefour Hypermarket. You can use their parking space.

Firstly, you will be served with their drinks. A choice of Lemon Juice, Iced Lemon Tea or Coke. So here you are with my choice.

Next is the soup where you have the choice of Mushroom Soup or Classic Tomato. As you all know, mushroom soup is always my favourite and indeed the mushroom soup taste good and really brings you the homemade feel. Especially when you are always been served with a smile by the chef, waiter, waitress, boss, lady boss and a cat...meow. A cat? No cat here sorry. Huhu...

Well, this is what my main purpose here for which is their main course. A selection of Cajun Chicken, Fish & Chips and Pasta with chicken/beef bacon/vegetarian marinara/aglio olio/carbonara sauce. Hoho...without a doubt I will choose Pasta with carbonara sauce which is my favourite as well. The taste of carbonara is different than any carbonara that I tasted so far. Very special and unique. Usually carbonara is more to milky cheesy taste. For this one, it has thicker cheese and lack of milky taste.

Overall: 3/5 - the white color thingy at the side of the plate should have clean it. I still prefer a milky carbonara

A complete meal course always comes with an attractive dessert. The choices for my desserts are Bread & Butter Pudding, Apple Crumble or 2 Scoops of Ice Cream. So as you can see my choice is because I feel that the other 2 desserts making me feel full even by listen to the name of it. The ice creams are good and I believe they are using Nestlé ice cream to serve us.

Overall: 2/5 - It is a normal ice cream but it is way better than the ice cream I ate at Mai Ramen Cafe.

Do not expect this place is big. It is a small place which probably less than 300sf. However the decoration is nicely done. About how good is this deal, I will say actually it is not a must grab deal. Unless it is RM10.00 and that is what we call a deal that we couldn't resist.

Total damage: RM19.90
