Review visit to Crepe Cottage

8 October 2020
My wife and I were delighted to receive an invitation to visit Crepe Cottage. We were invited by its present owner, Benjamin, who is the nephew of the lady who founded it. The lady has since retired from the heavy duty, and is now busy enjoying life.

It's been a very long time since I last visited Crepe Cottage (the business celebrated its 21st anniversary last month, in Sept 2020). I noticed it has changed a lot - for the better! In the past, we sat outdoors, where we were bitten silly by mosquitoes, despite having to endure the smell from the mosquito coils. Nowadays, guests sit indoors, and on the way in, we admire Crepe Cottage's beautifully tended garden.

I couldn't help adoring Crepe Cottage's teddy bear motif. There's teddy bear everywhere, in pictures, posters, you name it. I did not recall teddy bear in my previous visit so long ago, but I am glad to see that the owner has made this place so pretty.

For starters, we had Garlic Cheese Bread. It was so good - crispy and aromatic, and a good way to prepare our stomachs for more. For the main course, Benjamin served us Herbed Butter Rib Eye and Pan Seared Seabass with Lemon Herb Sauce. Both items come with sautéed vegetables and crepe (of course, there would be crepe!) We enjoyed both items very much.

As for beverages, I had Strawberry Mango Milkshake while my wife opted for Strawberry Banana Milkshake. We finished off the meal with a Mango Cup, a totally precious dessert where the crepe is formed into a cup into which are diced mangoes, and topped with mango ice cream and cream. Oh, so delicious!

We barely scratched the surface, as far as Crepe Cottage's menu goes. I look forward to returning in future, to try out their other items.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
