La Bodega @ The Shore Melaka

It was a sunny, superb great weather Saturday morning. We decided to try out the breakfast in the newly opening restaurant in Malacca- La Bodega. Indeed this was not the first dining experience here, we had tried the lunch set and had dinner here  before but never on the breakfast. So since our dearest mummy also beria-ria to give a try so here we go!

This La bodega outlet which located at The Shore Malacca is the first outlet opening outside the Klang Valley. And this is definitely a good news to Malaccans as we now have another attractive culinary option :)

As usual, we were being greeted with the welcome "hola" by the staffs once we stepped into the restaurant. We were being informed that only Breakfast & sandwiches menu were available in the morning :( Sad. I was thinking to let my mum to have a try on the paella. Anyway, a quick glance on the menu, it was quite a wide varieties and choices.

Tze and KK opted for the Bodega's big breakfast. It was a huge portion consisting of sautéed mushroom, eggs, ham, sausages and toast. And with a top up of RM10 you get to enjoy a glass of fresh juice and Illy coffee of your choice. It is absolutely worth the price!

Big Breakfast RM28 (Add on RM10 for a glass of fresh juice and Illy coffee)

While mum got herself the French toast. We were quite surprised when it was being served as it was solely came with 2 toasts and a little jug of honey. No single garnishing at all. Thus it looks quite horrible in terms of food presentation. Luckily the taste are still ok else i feel so sorry for my mum :(

As a real beginner of tea addict, I was totally in love with Harney & Son Pomegranate Oolong. Tried it once a been eager to have it again. If possible i would like to get my hands on some :)

I ordered this Strawberry Banana Crepe. I believe that this was a homemade crepe, which filled with fresh strawberries and banana, and topped with some walnuts (which in the menu it is suppose to be almond flakes :p). However, the vanilla custard sauce + the chocolate sauce was way to diluted and wet, thus the whole crepe indeed looked in a mess. Crepe became soggy and it is just so not up to the standard as a nice dessert.

Among the dishes we had, I think Wei's Club Sandwich looks the best. The layers of the sandwich was filled with all the tempting ingredients: fresh leafy green vegetables, tomatoes, eggs and turkey hams!

Like mother, like daughters :)

Overall we have quite a pleasant dining experience there, with the nice environment, nice songs, and friendly staffs. However, food quality can be improved though. We have sampled in their Klang Valley outlets, and we think that the food quality in KV is definitely better than here in Malacca. Probably still new and the kitchen staffs need some time to get things perfect? :) ;)
