I certainly love food and my quest for hunting good food and restaurants still goes on. Recently, I’ve also found a new buddy who is adventurous as I am when it comes to food-hunting and restaurant-hopping.
Our first stop was Paddington House of Pancakes, where we took our dinner last weekend after doing some serious shopping. Hehe! It’s located at the LG floor of The Gardens Mall in Mid Valley City. I had a first glimpse of this restaurant in 1 Utama shopping mall (near the GAP store) last year. But since it’s quite far from my place, I never had the chance to try it until recently.
The restaurant can easily be noticed from the outside. The area is well-lit and looks inviting I should say, with many customers filling up the tables especially during the peak hours. It has minimalist decors with hues of brown, white and silver, which is uniquely chic.
Browsing on their colorful menu, it’s really quite extensive as they serve more than 100 pancakes from all around the world! You name it and they have it (well, most probably haha). They’ve got blinis (buckwheat pancakes), blintzes (traditional Russian pancakes), pannekoek (Dutch pancakes), gallettes (round and crusty pancakes - French origin), American and Mexican pancake burgers and so much more. What’s more, most of the items have pictures with matching descriptions. So, if you can’t pronounce something right, all you need to do is just point! =)
As the selection seems endless, it took us a while before deciding what to order. I finally settled for a pancake meal (see picture) which consists of pancake stacks (with mashed potatoes) + scrambled eggs + smoked salmon. Food presentation was ok. The amount of serving was just alright for an average person. And for the taste, the pancakes tasted like mashed potatoes! Medyo overpowering. Nakakaumay. But I liked the smoked salmon.
While my friend Kai ordered pancakes with cheesy sausages, ham and hash browns (see the pic again). Hers looked more appealing and delicious! And it was.
Maybe namali lang ako ng order. But I’ll definitely be back to try those items with fruits and ice cream!
Overall, it’s a cool place for a lazy weekend brunch. Expect to pay around RM30++ per person.
By the way, to those who want to join us on our food hunting trips, just drop me a message or email. Crunchy insects next time, can ah?
Pancakes galore.
