Went with family to this familiar name recently and noticed that standard has dropped. The red wine chicken is a bit soury, tom yam noodle tastes okay, but soup looks yellowish; porridge is quite tasteless. Generally, portion has reduced some 20% volume.

The Mars was near my hostel, handy for a cocktail and meal in the evening. The people were friendly, the music "not too loud", Food pretty good.

One of those hipster bakery cafés. The sponge cakes are brilliant. I was told that people seem to like the walnut bread but I do not understand what all the hype is about. The cheesecakes are decent enough.It is a nice place to have brunch or a quick coffee, or perhaps sit down for a quiet read.

Went to Peppers Cafe for a friend's birthday. We shared mixture of Malaysian/Western food, including Mee Mamak, Nasi Istimewa, Steak Rump, Spaghetti Carbonara, Grilled Chicken, plus of course some cakes.Enjoyed all the food except that the beef though cooked correctly to medium but a bit hard, perhaps the cut of steak is not ideal. The Spaghetti Carbonara is a bit too dry but taste okay. We especially enjoyed the cakes, especially the cheese cakes. We had the white chocolate lime cream cake, poppy seed cheesecake and charcoal cheesecake.I would like to commend the very friendly and helpful waiters and waitressesThe only annoyance is this persistent fly that we couldn't seem to chase away. Perhaps the management can do something to keep flies out of the air-conditioned restaurant. It really dampened our spirit.

First impression is the lovely atmosphere, being told some of the local will use their cafe as couples' wedding photo taking session. Can see the passion and effort being put by the owner into that cafe. Good service. Those foods being serve are mixture between Asian and Western. Bare in mind portion being served are meant for sharing.

A cafe serves local and Asian cuisines in Sibu, Malaysia more than ten years. We serve non-pork food, and we do not apply ajinomoto/gourmet powder, deep fried, second hand oil on the food.

I was really looking forward to dining at this restaurant because of the great write-up it got in my guide book.What a disappointment!!I arrived to dine at 5.50 pm-the restaurant opens at 6 pm.Staff were prompt and I placed my order.The mushroom soup arrived promptly but it was watery and only lukewarm...I looked forward to a better main course....But it was not to be.Meanwhile a table of 5 or 6 people arrived and they placed their order....Time passed and then I noticed that all of them were served-eventhough I had arrived before them.I made two attempts to find out WHEN my food would be ready.At 6.40 pm I was told that my food was being prepared" just now"...I had been in the restaurant for almost an hour at this stage and all I had received was mushroom soup and a coke...I paid for those and left...A very disappointing experience.
