The Butterworth City Centre along Jalan Raja Uda as well as Jalan Permatang Pauh has only got a petty to a greater extent than exciting alongside the opening of Pentagon 5 Studio. The cafe occupies the entire two-storey building, strategically located correct inward forepart of Aroma Hotel, Butterworth. The outside gives a hint that the house is chic alongside dashing ornamentation but inside, it proves otherwise. Once stepped inward the cafe, nosotros experience the industrial vibe- hanging lite bulbs, modern slice of furniture as well as heavy metallic embellishment. Interior decor aside, the bill of fare is pretty hipstery... featuring roughly of the Instagram-worthy desserts (such equally Soft Serve) also equally an array of Western-Fusion bill of fare (we were told that the Chef's a Thai as well as then roughly of the Thai-influenced dishes are worth looking frontwards to). Service was great, nosotros were greeted instantly upon arrival as well as the server pleasantly invited us to the tabular array alongside clear explanation on their offering... surely something that nosotros did non expect, at to the lowest degree from a newly established (two-week old) cafe.
Black Sesame Soft Serve (Rm 12.90/ mug)
Salted Egg Yolk Cheese Cake (Rm 12.90)
Brunch is served until 2:30 pm piece dinner starts at six pm as well as then those who recollect to convey a substantial repast should excogitation their visits earlier the kitchen closes at pre-determined hours. Left alongside express choices, nosotros opted for their signature Black Sesame Soft Serve which comes inward ii sizes- Small (Rm 8.90) as well as Mug (Rm 12.90). The latter i comes inward a huge part as well as it is recommended to serve for two. The Black Sesame-infused Soft Serve was shine as well as brimming alongside bitter-fragrant Black Sesame flavors. The sweetness was location on... at to the lowest degree perfectly fine for the sweet-intolerant similar me. Another add-on to our afternoon tea was Salted Egg Yolk Cheese Cake, a concoction that consists of Sponge, Walnuts... sheathed nether a Cheesy layer as well as topped alongside a morsel of Salted Egg Yolk bits. It was soft as well as lite on the palate but the Salted Egg Yolk chemical ingredient was non equally bold equally nosotros would convey hoped.
