Love Nutrient Sugariness Monster Cafe @ Fourth Street Club, Lebuh Tye Sin, Georgetown, Penang.

The cite "Moody Cow Cafe" is widely known alongside dessert lovers inward Penang, for serving to a greater extent than or less of the best even in addition to then innovative Cheese Cakes inward town (Salted Egg Cheese Cake/ Cempedak Cheese Cake are to a greater extent than or less of its signature products); the build is also notoriously known to serve to a greater extent than or less of the close expensive Cheese Cakes inward Penang. But the Cheese Cake specialist has lately ventured out of its norm... opening a novel cafe- "Sweet Monster Cafe" at fourth Street Club of Tye Sin Street. From the close expensive Cheese Cake inward town to.... potentially the close expensive Pie inward town (from Rm thirty per piece); from "Cow" to... "Monster"; the exclusively matter unchanged is their willingness to nowadays in addition to to come upwards with novel flavors in addition to combination. The cafe offers a small-scale Pasta carte with an array of home-made Pies in addition to Cookies... with close of them come upwards with hefty toll tags. The outside of Sweet Monster Cafe does non give a unmarried hint on what the identify would serve, 1 time you lot are inside, you lot volition detect the classical visual arts in addition to decorative of ancient European... with soft background music that nosotros would non know how to appreciate. Nevermind on the ambiance, their Pies really standout on their own...



Matcha Haven (Rm 32/ slice)


Ham & Potato Pie (Rm 32/ slice)

It was exactly equally good futile for Matcha lovers to refrain from trying their Matcha Haven, a sweetness dessert Pie served with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream. The vegetal Matcha season was intense, it was discernible but non equally good bold that it became repulsive; topographic point on. But the crust of the Pie shall non hold upwards forsaken equally well, it was a cookie-crust but beautifully paired with (chunky) Peanut Butter. With the bits of Matcha cake in addition to Dried Cranberries on top, the concoction was multi-dimensional; non exclusively on the texture but the flavors equally well. It did get got us sometime to analyze in addition to breakdown the elements but if you lot get got bits of everything, the flavors were harmonized in addition to amalgamated good together. It carried a mild sweetness with a tinge of saltiness; for those with a sweetness tooth, swallow with the dollop of Vanilla Ice Cream... which nosotros presumed to offering the sweetness pie a smoother, creamier in addition to sweeter dimension. The 2 of us had no qualms inward finishing the gigantic Matcha Haven. 

Since the Matcha Haven passed the test, nosotros did non hesitate to social club to a greater extent than or less other savory Ham & Potato Pie. It was served warm, with to a greater extent than or less Salad (dressed with Vinegar). We honey the buttery-flaky pastry crust but nosotros did non detect the filling spectacular. The filling was pretty straight-forward- creamy concoction of Potatoes, (smoky) Ham in addition to Cheese. It was rather apartment in addition to the flavors were predictable. We were pretty much surfeited afterwards a few bites.
