Aku kalau bab makanan, kalau dengar orang kata "the best", mula laa cepat2 simpan niat nak rasa and review.
Bila siapa2 tengok kedai ni first time, mesti rasa skeptikal. Like, "Sedap ke makanan dia?" Tengok dari luar, like, "Macamana view kat dalam?"
Actually, cafe ni adalah antara cafe yang tertua kat Malaysia. Most cafe yang lama2 before zaman kemerdekaan adalah kat Melaka dan Penang (as far as I know laa). Sudah beroperasi di Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman (TAR) sejak zaman pemerintahan British di Malaya lagi pada tahun 1921. Pernah jugak dapat anugerah "Longest Operating Western Colonial-Themed Restaurant" oleh Malaysia Book of Records. So agak unik, dengan nama cafe dan konsep front face pun tak pernah tukar.
Masa masuk cafe ni, memang terasa sangat macam berada di zaman dulu2. Konsep deco cafe ni tak pernah tukar, yang tu aku suka. I love anything that classic and feel vintage. Banyak gambar lama masa zaman sebelum merdeka tergantung kat dinding. Style of furniture pun tetap sama (according to Man) cuma material dah tukar baru la.
Disebabkan Man lebih arif bab order makanan kat sini, so I let him decide. Dia kata masa kecik2 dulu selalu makan kat sini. Harga memang pricey la, silap la kalau ada orang expect harga makanan dia sama macam rupa cafe dia. So end up, dua2 orang pun order steak.
Appetizer : Plain bread with butter tu memang akan dihidangkan kepada customer. Klasik kan? Even the plate also very old school. French Onion Soup (RM9.90) ni Man yang suggest, memang sedap. Belum pernah rasa sup bawang kat mana2 sebelum ni, sedap pulak tu. It is a must try menu.
Mashed Potato (RM5.00)
Mine : Grilled Australian Tender (RM48.90)
Man : Grilled Australian Sirloin (RM46.90)
My dessert : Banana & Chocolate Spring Roll with Vanilla Ice Cream (RM10.90)
Man dessert : Caramel Custard Pudding (RM6.90)
Branch lain ialah di Midvalley dan Jaya One, PJ. Tapi according to other bloggers review, feeling dia tak sama laa. Kalau betul2 nak feel the origin, memang kena dine in kat sini. I was having a nice chit chatting moment with Man on that day. Masa tu, kat luar hujan pulak. Very unforgettable moment :)
Total harga makan kat sini with all these kind of menu, almost RM200. With that size of menu, its worth your money, depend on what you choose. Tapi aku suka dengan ambiance cafe ni, so maybe will come again next time to try other dishes pulak.
Lokasi :Berhampiran Sogo, Jalan TAR
Review : Should give a try
