A day at Queensbay Mall

I personally love hanging around Queensbay Mall, regularly once in a week when I have time. Why? It's something related to a book store there... hehehe. 

Some new stuffs in Starbucks here. Their new cake looks ugly, and have some very bad review, thus, I didn't try that. Starbucks' muffins do have some good reviews. I especially love their Banana Chocolate Muffin. Today, I try out their new Espresso Caramel Muffin, they do taste great! Here's the tips for Starbucks visitors, choose the muffins only! All other food are junks! All the cakes and pastries by Starbucks are junks! ONLY MUFFINS ARE GREAT! Why? Their cakes are unattractively decorated, over priced, dry, lack of taste, and use artificial flavorings! Their pastry are stinky oily, and nothing special and overpriced! Only muffins worth its price tag!

After sitting and reading lots of "free books" in Starbucks, I bought this soy bean milk drink! The fragrance of the soy bean tempted me to buy it! It really taste great! I can see their machine full of soy bean pastes. It's the real thing! They did use the real soy beans to make the soy milk, better than ChaTime and all those other bubble milk tea which uses milk powder! (You might "pee diamond" if you drink too much milk powder from China!) Let's switch to all natural soy bean milk! :D Peace!

What's Best: ???
Price Range：RM12++

Austin Chase is having discounts for their cakes! They previously taken in the Penang famous Humble Beginning Mille Crepe. However, their price tag is too high. They cost twice compare to those in Secret Recipe. I must say, their cakes have the quality, just that it's too expensive. Each of them RM12.90 in normal price. Yes, they taste good, better than secret recipe. They just lack of fancy decorations and priced too high. Now they have 50% discount on cakes. It's a great chance to get a piece of cake and try it for yourself! You'll hate Secret Recipe once you tried their cakes! 

Their tea is from Twining's, nothing special, very expensive, the worst of all! I can make a better and cheaper Twining's at home, just buy the tea bags from grocery and soak the tea bag myself! Their Coffee, isn't as good as Starbucks'. I ordered Caramel Macchiato, and the foam is not smooth! However, their caramel have some vanilla flavour in it, making it taste unique.

Their food? A disappointment! Please take note on their "Pictures are for illustration purpose only" fine prints on their beautifully photographed menu! The photo above is the real thing! While the photo in the menu showing that the sandwich comes with potato wedges and some green pesto sauces.

The taste, still acceptable! Overall, still expensive. Well, you may try this place if you want some cozy, fast internet connection. Try their cakes, they are great.
