Visiting My Cafe for the very first time, at lunchtime, I tried the
full English breakfast at $40 and the Tiramisu.
This place has basically
only changed its name with the new owner. Even the paper place mats are still the ones left over from the former Offtime Cafe, but they're turned upside down on the tables, showing the blank backside! The entire interior, even the pictures on the wall have been taken over from the former owner.
The waiter and the cook are the same person at lunch.
Quiet, but friendly and efficient service and the big breakfast (7 items, good value!) took less than 20 minutes to arrive, MUCH faster than Offtime before, but the hot breakfast was all cold by the time it was served on a cold plate. But it was
nicely arranged and very tasty, quite similar to the big breakfast in Aroy Thai.
The
Tiramisu was basically just the usual sponge cake. The Deli Lamma's superior Tiramisu has nothing to fear from this new competition. The only other desserts were two types of cheesecakes, not a big choice for a "Cafe".
The
pretty extensive menu (more than 10 pages) seems to be
almost identical to Offtime Cafe as well, incl. the very reasonable prizes:
Breakfast sets from $22, 7 styles of coffee from $20, 7 types of hot dogs from $20, toasties/sandwiches from $18, rice/pasta dishes from $35, 6 styles of cheesecake from $20.
I was there for 1.5 hours, eating, reading, sipping the very strong coffees. I was the
ONLY guest during this entire lunchtime.
Good people-watching on Back Street, loud music and aircon blowing, quite a nice place if you're looking for a quick Western lunch, or a peaceful meal with really private service as the only guest.
