Beryls coconut covered chocolate from The Royal House

Discovered this shop on the way to the Legend Restaurant, it is basically next to it!
The shop was huge and sold lots of boxed chocolates, it was mainly fruit covered chocolate such as durian which I really wanted to try, but they did not have a smaller box.

As well as Malaysian chocolate they had Venchi chocolate, but there are lots of Venchi branches elsewhere so I chose the chocolate by Beryl's ( a Malaysian brand).
The bag they used was a Venchi bag!
The receipt was interesting too, the shop was called The Royal House but the shop front had chocolate.
The opening hours were even more confusing!
From 10:00-0800 so does that mean from 10 in the morning to the next 8am in the morning???
It was 7pm that night so I could not work out whether this place was still open as there was no one in there.
The variety in there was amazing and I could not decide which chocolate to get!!

Beryl's coconut chocolate:
In the end got this one and it was quite nice, the shape was irregular and it had crispy bits inside which were full of coconut taste.
The sweetness of the chocolate was just right but I would have preferred dark chocolate.

Really refreshing fruit tea @ TenRen's Tea

I never noticed this Taiwanese drinks shop because I skipped eslite on my way to the restaurants above.

I only found out recently so I went and had a look.

The drinks counter was quite interesting because it did not look very modern and I nearly thought it was from China because of the tea leaves it sells and the cups they use.
Usually the Taiwanese drinks come in plastic clear cups but here they use paper cups and the chinese name characters on the paper cup looked like it was from one of those Chinese tea leaves shop.

I saw some people collect some frothy looking drinks so I looked at the menu, it was basically divided into hot drinks and cold drinks.

There are teas, milk teas, flavoured milk and fruit teas.

In the end I chose the fruit tea. I was slightly annoyed that they did not ask me the level of sweetness but luckily I requested the tea not to be so sweet.

Fruit tea with 30% sugar:
I really liked this drink and it reminded me of the fruit tea at SHARE TEA.
The orange in it was really strong, it tasted like minute maid orange juice mixed with tea.
However I could not taste the other fruits so I might as well of just ordered orange fruit tea.
I only chose 30% sugar hence the taste was really refreshing.
There was an equal balance of tea and juice.

Not quite a scotch egg @ Izumi curry

Came especially because of the melted cheese on rice and the scotch egg
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Homemade hamburger steak curry:
The beef was patty was awful, it was full of elastic bits in it.

Scotch egg curry rice with extra cheese:
When it arrived I realised it was not going to taste nice because the scotch egg did not have sausage meat around it.
The scotch egg had beef patty around it, which was the same as the patty in the hamburger steak.
The patty was so bad that it had elastic bits in it that I wanted to throw up.
The eggs that they use at this restaurant are different because they have orange yolks which explains why their omelettes look really orange.
As for the cheese, it was delicious with the rice when hot, so I had to eat it quickly.
After the cheese had cooled down it was tasteless, hard and stringy.
