Petite Blanc Patisserie Macaroons

Salted Caramel (RM 4 ech) ~ Not salty enough.
Matcha (RM 3.50 ech) ~ Green tea taste is not strong enough.
Raspberry (RM 3.50) ~ Nice.
Peanut Butter & Jam (RM 3.50) ~ Sweetness overpowered the peanut butter taste.
Black Sesame (RM 4 ech) ~ Nice.
Dark Chocolate (RM 4) ~ So So.
Mocha (RM 3.50) ~ Nice.
I like the texture of the macaroons, firm and don't break easily.

Minimum order are 10 pieces. They are very accommodating, I was suppose to pick up the macaroons from their location in Klang or I would need to pay a delivery fee of RM10. I replied that I'm not going to pay RM10 just for a delivery fee to Subang. They then informed me that they will be having an event in Subang and I could pick the macaroons up within this time. Unfortunately I had another appointment in PJ at the same time and I will only be back in the evening.

They replied me that their event will finish late and they are able to wait for me. Very accommodating as I have said.

The Culture Pot @ Damansara Uptown


Table is very cramp and small.

French Earl Grey by TWG (RM 7.20) ~ They should clean it if it's spilt and not serve it. Donna had to bring it over the counter to ask them to pour the excess tea away.

Hot Chocolate (RM 13) ~ Nice.

The magazine at the side of the table toppled on my water. They really should remove it, the table is already cramp enough. But what I like is they were very quick to react and immediately bring a mop to clean the floor and cloth to dry the table.


Smoked Salmon Sandwich (RM 22) ~ Pricey for two small pieces of salmon. It was okay but the bread is soggy.


Pink Unicorn (RM 4): Marshmallow & White Chocolate ~ Nothing special just sweet.
Salted Caramel (RM 4) ~ Only tasted caramel and a very tiny spot has salted caramel.
Red Velvet (RM 4) ~ Coloring.
Macarons have little filling.

Staffs are friendly and helpful when you need help with the menu.

Olfactory Bulb @ Kota Damansara




Hot Chocolate Nutella (RM 13) ~ Not bad, Nutella taste is very faint.

Imperial Elixir (RM 20) ~ Normal yet pricey.






OFB Basic (RM 14): Waffle with Kapiti Vanilla Bean, Butterscotch Chips, Peanut Chunks & Croquantine ~ Yummy. It's quite filling so you may want to share it.

Salted Caramel (RM 4) + Red Velvet Macaroon (RM 4) ~ Both are good.

The lady is very nice; I was sitting under the aircon, I mentioned that I was feeling cold, she offered to switch us to another table once that table is done since they look like they are about to leave. She also gave us suggestions like if we like a pretty drink for picture sake we should order The Elixir. The Elixir looked really good in picture but taste wise not so great and it's pricey too. Nevertheless a must try place.

The Crusty Nest @ SS15




Paper cup has a very strong cardboard smell.

The Wedding Cheesecake (RM 12) ~ Not to both our liking but texture is good.

There's not much choice, was thinking for quite a while before deciding on what to order. I saw the cheesecake and asked what was contained in the wedding cheese cake, I heard cheese. But when I tasted it, it's strawberry & orange, EEEEKKKKK 2 things I dislike the most. Baby refused to help me finish it so I had to force myself slowly to finish it. Have you tried eating food that you don't like, the agony and you keep trying to drink water to swallow it??? Imagine you hate broccoli and you had to eat it because your mom made you, a whole plate of it. Maybe you guys would prefer the cheese cake if you love Strawberry

One of the owners came over to check on us, and ask how is the cake. Baby told him that I heard wrongly and didn't know it's Strawberry which I don't eat (But I tasted Orange too). Then he asked me what do I eat? I said probably chocolate, then I realize that he is about to go and get a chocolate tart for me, so I said no no it's okay it's fine. But he came back with one anyways and explained that unfinished items at the end of the day gets thrown out so it's fine to give me.

Chocolate Tart Comp ~ Okay, normal.

I really appreciate his gesture, the tart may be normal, and the cheese cake may not be nice to me but his gesture is what matters the most to me. I know that restaurants/cafe throws out unfinished pastries/dessert at the end of the night but how many of them would actually offer it complimentary to someone who is not enjoying what they ordered, they would rather toss it away or keep it for the next day and hopefully you don't notice it's overnight food.

Beside is Nagomi Chinese Cuisine who serves yummy food, I go there for lunch/dinner, after I'm done just walk next door to Crusty Nest for tea/pastries :)

One of the staff was really nice, we were lost from the path coming from Starhill. He brought us to the path to The Lobby Lounge and even showed us the secret elevator :D
Comparing Lobby Lounge and Orchid Conservatory, environment wise I would choose Orchid Conservatory, food wise Lobby Lounge. I wouldn't say the food here is super awesome, I only liked the bottom tier of the high tea set.
