Tim's Teapot Terrace, Taman Melawati

Alas, I have managed to squeeze some time out of my ever hectic schedule to do some cafe visiting, and this time, I chose one closer to my house, Tim's Teapot Terrace. Its located at the same row as Breadties. I used the back road to get there so I'm not sure if you can see the shop from the main road. They open at 11am and half the shop is a cafe and the other half sells home decor stuff. I decided to try their desserts for lunch (Yes, I can have dessert as main meal). I had scones, banofee pie and the much famed Nutella Chocolate cake.

I would say that this place is well decorated and the staff are warm and friendly. At 11.30am, I was the only customer in the shop. I would suggest you stop by this place for drinks and cake as their main meal selections are rather limited, they have Mac&Cheese, lasagna, Shepherd's Pie and chicken pie. The first 3 contain beef so I could not try them, but since I had set my sights on the desserts, I didn't really mind. From the cake selection by the window, I asked the staff which was their best seller and she pointed towards the Nutella Chocolate Cake so I ordered that.

  
The cake was dense and rich but not up to my satisfaction. I honestly don't know why this is their most popular cake, maybe on my next visit, I would try the orange cake instead, or the VSC. 

Scones served with butter and jam

Their scones are served with butter and jam. Compared to Miss Ellie's, the scones are smaller and crumbly. I personally prefer Miss Ellie's but my mom insists that these are better, so I leave this open for debate!

Banoffee Pie
 My personal favorite, the magnificent banoffee pie!! Warning, this is an extremely sweet pie so diabetics, do stay away from it. Non-diabetics, please exercise after consumption! Its so rich and heavenly that when you eat it, it takes you to a whole new world. I only offered 1 spoon to my mom so that she can taste it, the rest was for me! hehe!

The cappucino is just average. All in all, I give this place 4/5 for ambiance and 2.5/5 for taste. I was really disappointed by the Nutella Chocolate cake as I had high expectation because other blogs were praising it.

Till next time. :)
