The drinks are decent, and the alcoholic tiramisu is above average and enjoyable. The cafe could enhance the atmosphere with small decorative or interior improvements.

the taro misu and mini Portuguese egg tarts are good. the garlic bread is crispy and spaghetti is delicious. mochi is ok. food in lunch set is normal, given with the price about rm20, with drink and tarts included, nothing to complain about.

Personally the cafe was ok. Tasty food, nice service from the staff but one thing worries me, it's a pet friendly cafe. I wouldn't want any furs in my food
