Jessica Johnson Tea House |
It is run by the father and daughter and they mostly serve their usual customers. One of the reasons that I feel so is because they operate only for breakfast, lunch and early tea. Though they have a great menu offering including home baked cookies and cakes, they are not keen to stay up late and serve dinner too.
Looking through the menu |
To my parents this was a new experience. Everything you see in this restaurant from the furniture to the flower offerings, is for sale. The owner is an ardent traveler and has a great collection of antique furniture for sale.
The Interior of the Restaurant |
Once we placed the orders, we had abundant time in our hands. All food is cooked from scratch here and it does take quite a while. No condiments are pre prepared and hence the waiting time for the food to arrive is quite long. When it is full, it can take up to an hour.
As I had loads of free time, I decided to tour the shop to take some photographs of the cakes and other offerings here.
Freshly Baked Scones |
Muffins |
Yummy Pies |
Assortment of cakes available today |
Finally after a 20 minute wait, here comes my coffee. Please bear in mind that everything served at this restaurant is low in sugar, this includes the cakes too.

After a while, here comes the food. All the food dishes here are priced around RM 10.00 - RM 15.00 on average and can be shared between two to three pax.
Balinese Rendang Chicken |
The above Balinese Rendang Chicken is a must order dish everytime I come here.
Duck in Yam |
This Duck in Yam is super duper delicious and is highly recommended!!!
All Set to Dip In.... |
Salad comes as a complimentary side dish |
The Salad that you see above was complimentary as it was part of the set meal.
Clean plates...proof that it was really good!!! |
A Small Piece of Cake as Desert |
On the whole, this place is a great place to dine. Only setback, being its rather limited opening hours which makes it non accessible to people not living or working close to Sri Damansara. Kindly do note that it is closed on Sundays too.
