Croffle

On Tuesday 14.may.2024, I went to collect meds from the hospital for the elderly and I was asked to decide where to eat nearby so I searched online and found this cafe in taman midah for brunch.

The name of the cafe I found is:
Estate Coffeehouse Taman Midah 

It opened in 2022 I believe. On the receipt, the name is EST Coffeehouse, bakehouse & TBF J&J Bake Cafe Sdn Bhd. This cafe is located in the same row of shops as Two One Two coffee shop. Very limited parking space in this area.

Since I selected this place for brunch, I am in charged of ordering all the food so I tried to order food without any butter in it so that he would eat it as he dislikes cooked butter taste in cooked food. Pure cold butter to spread on bread is ok with him but only when it is salted.

10.30 am - surfin turf aka fish and chips MYR 34.90++ which tastes good. I asked about the fish and the reply is perch fillet. Sweet potatoes fries and deep fried large shrimps. The wasabi tartar sauce is very delicious.

10.48 am - white flaky perch fish fillet meat.

10.20 am - hot flat white MYR 12.90++ and iced long black MYR 10.90++ with slightly burnt coffee taste for the cold long black.

10.37 am - kuro garlic tsukemen MYR 23.90++ and the staff advised us to pour the kuro garlic hot soup all over the ramen if we want soft noodles which we did.

10.51 am - souffle and croffle MYR 23.90++
A croffle is croissant dough baked in a waffle machine maker. Need to wait 30 minutes for croffles and souffles. The souffle will sag after a few minutes so it is best to eat it when it is is served while it is still warm. A tiny cup of espresso accompanies the croffle.

10.58 am - soft eggy souffle.

10.50 am - they served the espresso after they served the croffle and souffle dessert plate. Luckily they remembered because I wouldn't have known about the espresso because I didn't read the menu in detail.

11.24 am - shop front eastern coffee house. Total bill is MYR 123.55 nett.

11.13 am - I ate all these remaining tsukemen ramen noodles which is nice due to the soft ramen and slightly spicy sesame garlic soup poured over the ramen.

The photos in the menu are very pleasing to the eyes. I have to make a return visit to this cafe to look at each photo carefully next time.

Individual croffle.

Souffle choices.

4 pm - he ate all the remaining roast duck from yesterday.
4.15 pm - I ate one strawberry cheese jelly pudding stick

Diy Plumber

On Monday 13.may.2024, went to complete a chore so he ate coffee and eggs at kaw kaw pakkopi Sri petaling while waiting for me. Then we ate chapfan no rice at fatty mix rice. Bought plumbing parts from Mr diy pinnacle condo and bread from pinnacle supermarket. Car is parked in pinnacle condo basement car park.

Diy plumbing work and found that we need some parts so I ate bread and snacks before walking out to buy those parts. Passing choy kee roast duck new portable small stall, decided to buy some duck from them but minimum purchase of a roast duck is half a duck MYR 40 nett so I bought half a roast duck and one duck gizzard MYR 1 nett for his early dinner.

4.50 pm - I changed my mind about Omad and ate the roast duck too. I like the flavourful tong gwai taste used to marinate this roast duck. The above remaining amount would be easy for him to clear the next day.

*** Before ***

He removed the above bacfree filter which was dripping water from the nozzle after 13 years of usage. The above photo shows the state just after installation in year 2011.

Hunt for Soft Bread Loaf

On Sunday 12.may.2024, he wanted to try out a chicken Kai see hor fun in Chun Heong Kopitiam 新全香咖啡店 lucky garden bangsar that he read that someone online says is tasty. I suggested that he checked properly which stall because one coffee shop could have two stalls selling the same type of noodles. Later after we have eaten the Kai see hor fun, he found out that the correct stall is in the annex portion of the coffee shop but the one we ate is also very tasty so all is well. Need to visit this coffee shop again to eat the Kai see hor fun from the correct stall. 😂

*** Tang Zhong soft bread ***


"This bread comes out so different because of a special water roux technique called Tangzhong Method (탕종법 湯種法). Flour, water and milk are mixed and heated to make a roux like mixture and this is added to the dough. This method was traditionally used in China to make buns with a soft and springy texture. And then in the early 1920’s a Japanese baker decided to use this method to make this style of soft bread."
