#DINEWITHME - SCENIC CAFE GARDEN, IPOH

Whenever I travel back to #Ipoh, time seemed to be never enough for my use. I'll be seen buying things at the famous old stall or perhaps eating under a tree or a small stall by the roadside. 

This round I am going to introduce a #Cafe - the one that I often missed out when driving pass; taking corner at the traffic lights each and everytime. In my mind, "well, it's just a plant nursery" - and I don't bother to look more. 



#Scenic Cafe Garden appeared more like a traditional Malay restaurant at my first sight. With "pondok" surrounding the landscape and heavy influences of "kampung" feel, my attention poured into the ambiance setting.

The moment you step into the cafe, you'll be amazed with the "kampung" house. Warmly lit, it welcomes you with a high ceiling, colored glass windows and "atap" roofing. 





Christmas tree can be seen due to the festive season






Detailed decoration



The cafe is rather big and was divided into main dining and room dining under air conditioned. You can see most of the furniture are made of wood in the cafe.

Since it's lunch time, we were given the Set Lunch Menu besides than the Ala Carte's. Here's part of the menu, not overall which I've snapped down:-

Set Lunch Menu 


Western Meals - Ala Carte Menu



#Sabah Tea Menu

Mum and I ordered the Set Lunch menu, which mum tried on the Asian (Traditional Nasi Lemak) while I ordered the Western cuisine (Pan Grilled Chicken).  Both set comes with a soup, drink and dessert. 

Iced & Hot Lemon Sabah Tea

Iced / Hot water is charged at RM 1/glass 
(No sky juice, please)

Soup for Traditional Nasi Lemak set


Traditional Nasi Lemak
(Aromatic coconut steamed rice served with sambal, egg, ikan bilis, rendang chicken and traditional condiments.)


Chicken soup for Western Set
(In my opinion, the soup is rather watery and tasteless) - feeling "meh"


Pan Grilled Chicken 
(Pan grilled boneless chicken whole leg and served with mixed salad, French fries or Mashed Potato with a choice of black pepper, mushroom or garlic cream sauce.)


How big is the portion? 
Check my plate!



Dessert after the meal

After paying the bill, I walked towards the shelves to check on the items - because the cute "orang utan" plush toy attracted me over. :D








Hi-tea is also available from 3.00pm to 6.00pm

The overall dining was pleasant and has been marked as a place to dine rather than just a "plant nursery" all along this time. Leaving some memories here with a few photos of mine.
