Prompted by the positive reviews on openrice I finally paid this place a visit I was lucky as only 3 tables were occupied when I arrived. It was a tiny space, but a nice and cozy one. A lady took my order, and I went for the toffee and banana cake. 20 minutes passed by and there was no sign of my pudding. I thought to myself 'perhaps they're famous for making their puddings from scratch or that they bake it after the order so they're nice and fresh'. I gave it another 5 minutes, and when it was
A lady took my order, and I went for the toffee and banana cake. 20 minutes passed by and there was no sign of my pudding. I thought to myself 'perhaps they're famous for making their puddings from scratch or that they bake it after the order so they're nice and fresh'. I gave it another 5 minutes, and when it was still nowhere to be seen, I asked the lady to follow up on my order. Surely it wasn't too much of a request with less than 6 people in the house.
She paused, then said 'I'll check again'. Then she walked towards the display counter, took a slice of toffee banana cake, then put it into the microwave. I saw the entire process and was left utterly stunned. I then confronted her 'did you just slip my pudding into the microwave'.
She stared at me and hesitated, then said 'no'. Nobody else in the cafe ordered the same pudding, and the cafe was simply too tiny that it was obvious she was lying to my face. A minute later, she took the pudding out, put a scoop of ice cream on it, then offered me this exact same piece of cake she slided into the microwave, and charged me $40 for it.
Absolutely outrageous. And even if I weren't ballistic about the entire incident, it was genuinely a piece of cake that did not impress by a single bit, and definitely wasn't worth its price, let alone a 20-minute wait, especially when they served it 'fresh' from a microwave. The worst thing was the waitress lied, gave no apology, and did absolutely nothing about it. I wouldn't consider a second visit, and in fact, I'm urging everyone not to come at all. It's an absolute waste of time, and for the price they charge you, there are many other places that offer better food and service.
