Old School Delights.

We drove passed this cafe a number of times and finally made a trip down last Saturday.
I love what they did with the place.

Chalk-board wall with cute drawings. Bright, woody and simple.

There isn't a wide selection of food choices but like what one of the co-owner (it's a brother & sister team), Olivia, told us "All the courses in the menu are family recipes. We only cook when the order is placed. No artificial flavour. No MSG. No flavouring essence in the cake. It's as good as what you cook at home."

Baby ordered D'lite Laska ($5.20) and I had Haianese Style Chicken Cutlet with Fried Rice ($7.80).

D'lite laska does not mean it short changed us on the taste in fact the laska is full flavour without the overpowering richness of coconut milk. Friendly to the heart.

However my all time favorite laska will still be the one from Bt Timah Plaza. (That will be another blog for another day)

Haianese Style Chicken Cutlet with Fried Rice. Surprisingly it does remind me of the fried rice from my good old school days that cost me $0.70 from the canteen. Very home-cooked style. But the cutlet is the STAR! Tender, juicy at the inside, crispy at the outside. I guess Olivia isn't lying when she said all cutlet are fried only when order is placed. Nothing is pre-fried.

Now for the best part of the whole meal.
DESSERT!

We ordered a "The Fudge Ugly Choco-Bana Cake" ($5.50).

The Banana cake is moist and soft together with the natural sweetness of the banana filling and slightly bitter-sweet chocolate fudge.

There is really nothing to complain about it other than... Can you make it bigger!? haha
If you are ta-baoing back and leaving it in the fridge overnight, please remember to microwave it for 15 sec.
It's more shiok!!!

Most might think the price is rather high but let's face it even Toast Box's mee siam costs $4.50.
For a more comfortable ambiance, friendly staff and oh-so-good dessert.
I will be back.
