Ciao Bello Cafe!
Last week while my friend was driving around Seri Kiulap Mall, we passed by a new cafe named Bello Cafe. As it was night time, I couldn't make out the style of this new cafe. There and then, I promised myself that I'll be back really soon.
And true to the bones, I went back there a few days later with my nephew for lunch.
If you know where Fleur De Lys is, Bello Cafe is just at the opposite end of it. You can't miss it if you go around the building. I saw from tweets in twitter that this place has not opened officially yet. Just a soft opening. I guess the place outside the cafe is to be made into an outdoor seating cos I don't see any cars parking there.
Once we stepped into the cafe, it's an entirely different atmosphere. Soft instrumental music was playing on the background and the cafe is filled with different kinds of seats/chairs/tables! Low sofas, high cushioned arm chairs for tea etc I didn't take any photo of the settings cos every table was occupied. Since this is a local cafe, I wasn't daring enough to snap a photo of the whole cafe! Hehe...
Ambience: 5/5
We found an empty table next to a couple and settled down. Staffs there were really helpful and attentive! I could say, best ever in Brunei so far. You only need a simple eye contact and they'll come over to
you. No hand raising or 'excuse me' needed! =D
Customer service: 5/5
We placed our orders and drinks came really soon. While waiting for our food, I took that day's newspaper and read. Apart from newspapers, they also have some magazines. I am so itching to go back there again for a slow afternoon tea session with a girl friend, not my nephew. HAHA
The couple beside us ordered burger and it was BIG ASS! The biggest burger I've ever seen and instantly, we both regretted our choice of food. Oh well, there's always next time!
A flip through the menu, they serve burgers, sandwiches, kebabs, pastas and some light snacks. There were a variety of drinks to choose from and price range is the normal range in Bandar Seri Begawan. So, if you are not from BSB, please be ready to splurge an average of $15-20 per person for the whole meal.
Our food and drinks!
Nephew's iced cappuccino, my iced latte and chips with tartar sauce.
Nephew's angel hair carbonara with beef bacon and wild mushroom, mynasi lemak and chocolate lava pudding/cake.
Drinks were alright, I still find the iced coffee at South Korea being the best. Chips were exactly my type, really filling! Nephew's pasta was quite good but he told me it was too cheesy to be consumed alone.
The rice from my nasi lemak is heaven! It is sooo fragrant! But other than that, the chicken and sambal were just ordinary. Personally, I think they need to improve the chicken. I didn't finish it cos the middle part was raw.
Our dessert was the MOST DELICIOUS ever! I chose to go without ice cream and boy I was so glad that I did! The hot and gooey chocolate that flows out is just OMGSOYUMMY! Just a little opinion from a dessert freak here, can we have a little bit more slices of fruits? Just 3 thinly sliced strawberries are not enough ok! Maybe a few slices of peaches and kiwi?
Drinks: 3.5/5
Food: 3.5/5
Dessert: 5/5
Bello Cafe, I'll definitely drop by again to taste the HUGE-ASS burger and have that AWESOMECHOCOLATELAVACAKE again!
Bill totals up to B$33.00 for 2 persons.
PS: they accept Visa cards :)
***************************
On a side note, I am curious to why they name the cafe Bello Cafe. Why not Bella Cafe? Since Bello is a masculine word and Bella is a feminine word, doesn't Bella sound more beautiful? a little googling answered my question. Seems like there are a lot of cafes with the name Cafe Bella/Bella Cafe! HAHA don't mind me =P

Speak clearly!
Past few weeks have been really stuffed with work! The sadder thing is, it's going to continue until the calendar shows December!huhu...
Anyway, just wanna share something that happened a while ago.
I saw my teenage nephew eating toast really deliciously and my stomach growled right away! So, I made myself a cup of coffee first before settling down and joining him.
Placed a piece of bread in the toaster and sat down. By that time, he's already done with his 5th serving and so he stood up and walked into the kitchen to clear the plate etc LOLS he is a growing boy =P
So I asked him to get me a knife so I could spread some butter on my toast. Few seconds later, he placed a knife on the table in front of me. Yeah, a knife. A KITCHEN KNIFE!!!
LOLSSS
I was like, "Noooo... I meant the knife for spreading butter, not this one!"
With a really straight face, he said, "You said you wanted a knife! Say properly next time!"
I was taken aback for a few seconds. He then took the kitchen knife away and brought a knife for spreading butter back for me.
Hehe =D
Moral from this small incidence, always state what you want CLEARLY. People cannot read your mind and know what you REALLY want unless you say it out clearly.
=)
Happy weekend guys and girls! ♥
