I know how to drive to PJ on my own now yay! Just to SS2 for now though orz. But its a start! *o*



Had tea at Teapot Cafe. The place has a nostalgic feeling to it with the decor and its classic tea-time menu. The low lighting makes it comfy and warm on a cold rainy day (which was yesterday. It rained and rained and rained some more!)




The teapots on display are absolutely adorable. The last 'Fish and Chips' one reminded me of [livejournal.com profile] ithronluin


The menu has a wide selection of tea including Dilmah, Whittards and Twinnings as well as a selection of fruit/flower infusions for those who prefer none caffeinated tea.


I wasn't kidding when I said 'wide selection'.



Classic font, French Script haha. Not my hands by the way.



I actually mistaken the scones as cream puffs because of the shape lol.

Quite a number of people walked in to take away scones, eclairs, cakes and pies. The cafe itself was rather quiet, not many patrons. Even if there were, they had their tea/coffee and food, read the newspaper for awhile and left. Good place to date if you're trying to hide from civilization *coughcough*


We tried a RM19.90 set of a pair of scones, a piece of cake, mini sandwiches and a pot of tea. You can pick any tea from the tea selection mentioned above. There is a choice of 4 cakes and 2 (tuna or egg) for sandwiches. We tried the Victorian cake. It was like very moist butter cake with some jam in between. I liked it without the jam. The jam made it too sweet. The tuna sandwiches were decent. They're generous with the sandwich filling 8D

The Teapot Cafe has been around for 15 years (according to [livejournal.com profile] ezelthecheezel) and it has retained its old decor perfectly right down to the table cloth. If you like dining at places like Coliseum Cafe at Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, this is the right place for tea.

Will definitely come back on a rainy day XD



It has become a yearly affair for my family to have a seafood feast on my dad's birthday but it's also considered a birthday lunch for all of us considering our birthdays are all rather close (7/5, 3/6, 17/6, 13/7) so we actually save!



The first step is to pick live seafood from Jin Chwan Seafood Garden then you have the choice whether to have Kedai Makanan Chef Tam or Behai Restaurant to cook it for you.



Because they're all live seafood, the prices are not what you would get in Pudu Market or other wet markets.



They have fish, clams, snails, prawns, crab and even eels.



The temperature of the water mimics the temperature of the sea water to keep them alive and perhaps comfortable before they face their eminent death muahahaha!



I was very amused at the snow crab's attempt to escape that I stood there for a long while just waiting for it to haul itself outta the tank. It never got out LOL.

We decided to go over to Chef Tam's this time because we're always at Behai Restaurant. It proved to be quite disappointing.


Fresh oysters and Stir-fried Japanese Snail with dried prawns


Cheese baked lobster. People, this is not how cheese baked lobster is supposed to look like. This is cheese SAUCED lobster =w=


Prawns with glass noodles. Dad had to recook the whole pot (aka throw in lots of pepper and soy sauce to make it edible)

We learned our lesson. We'll go back to Behai Restaurant next time. The cooking there is better and food presentation there is better too. There's also a baking ingredient shop next to Behai, mum and I go crazy in there XP

And oh! Seafood are sold 50% off if they're bought when they're dead lol
