Corduroy Cafe @ ViVo City

There is this rather quaint cafe in ViVo City called the Corduroy Cafe, under the same umbrella as Corduroy and Finch. The place is pretty cosy, with sofa chairs, English-inspired theme, with home-made jam, complete with an antique piano. There is also a bookshelf filled with magazines like National Geographic where people can sit and read for hours. The food is not too bad as well.

A friend and I were there last night for dinner. I ordered lasagne and English Breakfast tea, and the tea comes in a tea strainer instead of a teapot, but I love the teacup and saucer set! The teacup and saucer set is clear and transparent, so cute and quaint! Not to mention when I asked for milk, the milk comes in a mini glass bottle, which reminds me of those old-fashioned glass milk bottles that were left outside English village houses!

A pity we were rushed for time, so did not get to stay much. But the service sucks though. I had to ask for quite a few things before they gave me, and some of the things had to be self-service, like bill payment. I wonder why they even have the cheek to charge us service charge?
