Only went here for lunch because they had some exclusive stuff.

Ordered the exclusive skillet chocolate cookie which turned out really disappointing because it was not doughy and chewy enough.

The texture and taste was more like a half baked biscuit.

It was sweet enough and didn't need the caramel sauce.

The feta and spinach roll was good because it was cheesy.

They gave me a quiche instead of the chicken pie I ordered.

Anyway, I got it changed but the chicken was not fresh so the pie was a waste of money.

Perhaps I should have eaten the quiche that they gave me by accident instead of asking them to change it.

Pacific Coffee Xmas treats

I was mainly captivated by the cherry tart and ended up getting other stuff.
+++++++++++
Lemon and almond finger:
 0 讚好



These were long strips of crispy puff pastry coated with lemon and almond slices.
It tasted like Lemon Puffs with an extremely buttery taste so cookie lovers will like this.
+++++++++++
Cherry pie:
Got the cherry pie because I love cherries but it seems like a hybrid between a pie and tart.
It’s more like a tart because it has weird a custard layer beneath the cherries which doesn’t make it a pie, while it looks visually like a pie, the pastry was tart pastry which was hard buttercrust.
Anyway, the custard ruined the taste and made it too sweet hence it didn’t taste like a pie.
+++++++++++
Strawberry vanilla cake:



The chocolate sponge was good but the vanilla mousse was a bit sweet like white chocolate and there was not much strawberry taste.

[Review 4582] Iced Lychee matcha from Pacific Coffee @ 太平洋咖啡 Pacific Coffee

I don’t know why I tried it but it was obviously going to be matcha mixed with Monins syrup.
Basically, it was matcha with a grassy bitter taste balanced by the sweetness and fragrance of the lychee syrup.
It is also smart how they have used the drinks sleeve to advertise.

Pacific Coffee have launched two Matcha drinks in the Summer Matcha Fiesta series.
There is Matcha Peach Chillino and Matcha brownie Chillino.

Matcha brownie Chillino is basically Matcha blended with a brownie which they sell at Pacific Coffee!
The drink was really nice because the bitterness of the matcha and the chocolately brownie tasted really nice and there were bits of brownie it it.

Matcha Peach Chillino is basically Matcha mixed with Monins peach syrup.
I found it icy and the peach flavouring was a bit artificial.

I was at Pacific coffee and this cake caught my eye because I don't often see chocolate cakes paired with apricot.
However you do get dried apricot chocolate bars.

Chocolate apricot mousse cake:
 0 讚好

There are not much apricots in the cake because on the other side of the cake there are no apricots (forgot to take a picture) .
Anyway, the mousse tasted clumpy but luckily the juicy apricots saved the day because the chocolate mousse was dry and tasteless and the white mousse on top just tasted like clumpy cream.

[Review 4121] Oolong tea at Pacific Coffee Company @ 太平洋咖啡 Pacific Coffee

I was a bit bored with Jasmine and Earl Grey tea so this time chose oolong tea for a change.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
oolong tea:

When I took the lid off, I could see that the teabag was filled with shriveled tea leaves, sadly they didn't unfold so the flavour was bland.

Stopped by for some Jasmine tea and found a comfortable spot to sit because there were not many people at this mall.

The Jasmine tea had a balanced floral and grassy tone to it which was pleasant to drink.

Previously Pacific Coffee only had two quiches but now they have quite a few flavours.
Tried the Black truffle and mushroom quiche.
The truffle taste was evidently truffle essence and the mushrooms were disappointing because they put Asian Shitaake mushrooms and enoki mushrooms.

I was really hungry so got the Chicken schnitzel because I have tried the quiches, bagels and other stuff.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken schnitzel:
The chicken schnitzel tasted better than my expectation because I thought the chicken was going to dry after being reheated, however the chicken was crisp and juicy sandwiched with lots of lettuce and tomato.
The bun had lots of dried seeds such as sunflower seeds, flax seeds and maize which gave it an extra bite of flavour too.
Although it tastes really good, I always feel thirsty for the whole day after eating sandwiches from Pacific Coffee!

Found out that there was a new Banana and chocolate drink so tried it.

Banana chocolate:

On first sip, it was too sweet!
There was a nice banana smell and the chocolate did not have a sour aftertaste, but the main problem was that the drink was too sweet.

I didn't realize this branch was new but I liked it because it was different.

While I was there I tried the Babychoccino

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Babychoccino:

Babychoccino next to a tall sized drink.
Babychoccino is steamed milk with chocolate.
The taste was very milky with a hint of chocolate and it is warm on the top and gets colder nearer the bottom.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★

Nice front with a sitting out area.
