Western Food @ Teapot Cafe, SS2, Petaling Jaya



Recently, Splashie Boy and I were revisiting old haunts and one of them was Teapot Cafe in SS2. This cafe has been around for a long time and originally started at the first floor. They have since moved downstairs to the ground floor which is their current location. The cafe is actually owned by a primary school friend of Splashie Boy's who took over the place from her mother. I love the decor of this place that's peppered with lots of teapots, decorative plates and etc which makes it a cosy retreat.

They mainly serve western food but you can get local food too like their yummy roti jala. It's advisable to eat lunch here as when it comes to dinnertime, most of the popular items will have been sold out. Kinda sad to see they have de-commissioned my favourite fish pie as this was one of the few places that sold it. I ordered a lamb chop with basil butter(RM19.50++) for that night as even my favourite Fish Milanese was sold out. They didn't do too great a job on my lamb chop as it was overcooked!


Splashie Boy had better luck with his Chicken Kiev(RM19.50++) which is comes with a yummy butter sauce within. I cut it open to take pictures and he was a bit peeved with me as his sauce seemed to have dissapeared after that. Caution should be exercised when you eat this as there's a toothpick lurking in the package which keeps everything together.

If you have time during the day, do pop over and try their set lunches especially the yummy Roast Beef. I think it's served on a Tuesday but the dates may have been changed so do call to check ahead. They also do scones with jam and cream from 3pm onwards everyday which is extremely popular. I remember fighting off people for a table on Saturday afternoon just to try those scones a long time ago. Not sure if that's the case anymore as more and more places serve scones.

tihtahpah - chocolate cake? We never seem to have dessert here after dinner as so full.

KY - it's old school" friend but yeah, I think I better change that sentence as very confusing.

I've been to Teapot Cafe a few times. My housemate would drive all the way from KL just to get the scones and clotted cream.

boo_licious said...

skyjuice - wow! must give them a try as I've only eaten them once since I don't usually take tea.
