Author: sweet surrender

I’m coming back soon! Anyway, here’s a food post for you.

Went for a catch up with my friend at Cafe Ch@t, Pullman Hotel, about 2 weeks ago. It was an impromptu decision to catch up here.

Been wanting to come here since the opening of this hotel but never manage to do so even though I’ve been going in and out of this place ever since its opening.

Just noticed that we were so “green” that night! LOL! Ordered hot (RM10) and iced (RM11) Green Tea Latte. The menu was green, so were our drinks. I prefer green tea latte from Starbucks.

Also ordered 3 macarons, RM1.50 each.
Left-Right: Chocolate, orange, yam.

It’s my fourth time having macaron, first 3 times was in Adelaide. This is my first time having it in Kuching. How was it? Well… If you had read about how to identify bad macarons (go ahead and just Google it, there’s a lot of articles about it), then all the characteristics were present here -.-” Macaron is not an easy thing to make, it requires very meticulous skills to get it right. Not many can get it right.

Anyway, I like the environment.

First tasted Bailey’s few months back. Interesting taste I must say. Baileys Irish Cream is an Irish whiskey and cream based liqueur, made by Gilbeys of Ireland. I don’t drink in Malaysia but I’ve been drinking quite a lot ever since some time middle of the year onwards because of someone who likes to drink. From there, I tasted all sort of alcoholic drinks and get to know now more about alcohol.

My housemate introduced Bailey’s Irish Cream Hazelnut to me when she came back from her year end holiday in Malaysia. We had it with ice, namely Baileys on the Rock (ice cubes and Baileys). Guys usually won’t like it but for girls, it’s acceptable to them as it’s sweet. Then again, I still don’t like the taste of alcohol. For those who wonder how it tastes like, just imagine vanilla milk with alcohol.

Got this bottle as a gift at Melbourne, 200ml, thought of having it as collection but when I look at the best before date, I decided to drink it *LOL* this is my very first alcoholic beverage in Kuching after coming for almost 2 months. I have another bottle, 1 litre from KLIA which I asked my sis to buy ;p Creme Caramel flavour, I’m not sure when will I open it to drink.

John’s Pie is located at No: 14, Ground Floor, Wisma Phoniex,, Song Thian Cheok Road, where 360 Xpress Citycenter is located. The building used to housed Up Well.


Went there to try its smoky hot beef pie (RM5.50). Not bad. I’m not a fan of meat pie but this is acceptable to me. At least it’s WAYYYYY BETTTERRR than Secret Recipes’. Just this one pie is enough to fill you up! We also tried the Portugese Egg Tart, not bad too.

It’s just a very small shop, more suitable for a quick bite during tea break or takeaway.
