If you’re looking for a place with nice food+ comfy environment + special tea + mouth watering dessert then I suggest you to head on to Societea @ Kuchai Lama.

No worries, the food are at reasonable price, they have set lunch promotions and even beer promotion! Good news for the beer drinkers!

I really love the lighting and the simple yet nice decoration of this place. It’s really cozy and quite suitable for couples who wants a relaxing place to enjoy the time together. Of coz, it’s definitely suitable for families too!

From the restaurant name, you’d probably have figure out this place is somehow related to tea. Oh yeah, they specializes in tea. They did their research and there’s even this lady who is a tea specialist who will be patiently explain how they brew the tea and also the functions of different type of teas. If you have insomnia, headache, stress and so on, you could ask the tea specialist to recommend the type of tea which can help to ease the pain.

If you prefer to enjoy ur warm tea at your own home sweet home, all their tea flowers can be purchased from the counter.

Besides tea, there are a lot of other chill drinks sold here. All drinks price ranged from RM5.90-RM13.90 .

Strawberry soda (Soda Chiller) (草莓苏打)
Pomelo soda (Soda Chiller) (柚子苏打)
Chamomile Orange – Cold Mix Tea (洋甘菊香橙)
Roselle Pineapple Mango – Cold Mix Tea (神黄梨芒果)
Peach Longan and Lavender – Cold Mix Tea (蜜桃龙眼薰衣草)

Slurp slurp~ I love the Strawberry Soda.

There are also ice blended drinks available.

1.Longan—龙眼
2.Rose Milk—玫瑰牛奶
3.Lavender Papaya –薰衣草木瓜
4.Roselle ice tea—洛神冰茶
5.Kiwi Verbena—奇异果马鞭草

After tasting all the hot and cold drinks, here’s the time to enjoy the food.

Starter of the night is Sauteed Sausage with Ikan Bilis (with Cili Padi) . The taste and texture of ikan bilis blends really well with the sausage and it’s a little spicy. I would say it’s a great combination!

Next up is the Shrimp Cocktail in Wasabi Mayo . The shrimps are pretty huge and fresh with just the right amount of wasabi mayo on it.

The last starter we had is Caesar Salad with a dash of Anchovy in Olive Oil.


If you’re a big fan of sandwiches or bugers then you should really try their Roast chicken Sandwich Coated with BBQ Sauce** comes with side salad. The toasted bun is filled with a deboned chicken thigh brushed with BBQ sauce (or you can choose honey lemon mustard). – RM10.90

Prawn and Fish Paste Mee Hoon Soup** is cooked in MSG-free stock with fresh prawns and qunelles of homemade fish paste. If you’re in the mood for noodle and MSG-free soup, then opt for this dish, it’s definitely healthier than any other noodle soup you have at the hawker stall. – RM8.90

Special Kampong Fried Rice with Sambal Sotong** is one of the dish you wouldn’t resist. The fried rice itself is tasty enough and it’s served with sambal sotong and crispy lil ikan bilis. This dish really helps open up your appetite! Yummy!!!

Next dish is totally my favourite – Black Pepper Seafood Udon (spicy)**. I can’t resist the black pepper taste with the springy udon. The black pepper is at the just right amount, so dun worry bout the spiciness. I think I wallop the most from this plate. I highly recommend this dish! – RM16.90

People usually would preferred Carbonara sauce for their pasta. If you’re one of them, then order Creamy Mushroom Pasta (Mushroom Carbonara). The pasta is fried till a lil dry but the sauce is not too thick, it’s creamy and cheesy enough. – RM13.90

If you’re not a big fan of cream based pasta or don’t want to have something too heavy, then opt for Aglio Olio with Prawns – flavoured with extra virgin olive oil, herbs and a sprinkle of paprika. This is one of my favourite as well  – RM13.90

Pan-grilled Dory fillet slathered with Honey Lemon Mustard Sauce, (which is a blend of wholegrain mustard with honey and lemon juice). Hooray for this dish coz no salt or sugar added here so the dish is even good for diabetics. My dad has always worried bout his sugar level and intake, this is difinitely a good news for him.

Lamb Chop in Black-pepper Sauce** is also one of the chef recommendation dish. I dun eat lamb so I can’t comment much on this. – RM18.90

Another dish which I dun eat is Sirloin Steak in BBQ sauce. But from the looks of the dish, it looks darn tasty. From the expression of other bloggers who ate it, I should say, they pretty much enjoyed it! – RM25.90

Well fried on the edge and on the skin of the chicken yet the meat is soft inside that shower with brown sauce is hard to resist. Chicken Chop in Brown Sauce .

***** All the western food you can choose on your dressing with ‘Brown Sauce, Black Papper Sauce,Honey Lemon Mustard Sauce and all serving is served with creamy pan-roasted potato cubes + fresh garden salad *****

By the point we finish the main dishes, our stomach is pretty much filled up already. But then, there’s always room for desserts. There’s no way I gonna skip dessert in my life.

Imagine I can have each of this, fuiyoh, total shiockness! If only my stomach could fit it each of it! Each of it is priced from RM2-RM6.90.

Snow Fungus + Rose Sweet Soup**Home made, unique in taste.  This is not like those tong sui you can get anywhere.

Jasmine+Green Tea Mousse Cake** (rose-petalled melt-in-your-mouth mousse cake served with sliced strawberries and a cut-out chocolate heart. Green Tea base and top jasmine layer have a drizzle of rose and jasmine honey vinegar)

Cream Puff in Lavender and Blueberry Yoghurt**


Chocomarie Bar – looks like a brownie but the use of chopped marie biscuits with dark chocolate is to give it a lighter taste.

Rose Mousse Cake in Strawberry Sauce (heart-shaped mousse cake)

Carrot Cake


Tiramisu


Chocolate Mousse Cake


Chilled Lemon Cheese Cake**


Last but not least end up with this very special brew coffee. Just loving it with strong taste of brew coffee taste yet another unique taste of it is for you to ask the owner to introduce to you. If you are a coffee lover, recommended.

    actually, i’m surprised u didn’t get a good service there. my friends and i are regulars there and the service has always been very good. we oso really love the place’s cosy atmosphere and nice food. what they offer in terms of food and drinks are oso very different from what we usually get in cafes around the area… I think u should try them again. just my two cents worth la.
