Gorgeous decor. Beautiful atmosphere. Lovely staff. Fantastic food. Delicious desserts. Gargantuan bubble tea drinks! đ
My wife and I tried Peppermint Crescent for the first time on Sunday night (dine in) as we had heard they were doing a bush fire appeal day (all profits were donated), and they did not disappoint! Damn near had to use a wheelbarrow to cart us back to the car with how much we ate though, haha.
Arrived there just after 5pm, during their happy hour window. We ordered two of their bubble tea drinks on almond milk - they were freaking massive, tasted delicious, and the little bubble things were yummy (and a laugh every time you got them in your straw). They included a free tiger chips (instead of 2x chicken wings) for happy hour as we're vegetarian, which was lovely of them. The tiger chips are little entre covered in this sauce and seasoning that is just incredible.
The mains were a really hearty tofu rice curry that my wife went absolutely nuts for, and this 'three cups' tofu dish that was just next level restaurant quality that was absolutely devine (the sort of meal I'd expect from somewhere like MOON with a much higher price tag). We shared both meals and - wow! - we're we both impressed.
We were already quite full at this stage, but when we saw the dessert menu, we couldn't resist the Gluten Free Lemon Lime Cheesecake with ice-cream. Yuuuuuuuuum.....
For the quality and serving sizes, it's fantastic value. We both left thinking "wow, this was so much better than we'd expect from a little restaurant in a small corner shopping mall". It's top quality food at very reasonable pricing in a beautiful little restaurant, and I recommend it whole heartedly (I can't wait to go back and try their sushi next time). Their happy hour offering from 4-6pm is also well worth coming in for an...
   Read moreThis place needs to sort out its pricing. Google website shows different price to in store prices and online ordering different price again. eg Tiger fries listed as $8 on website but online ordering has it as $10 and then in store pick up you are charged $11. I ordered by phoning the store because online ordering system was not available. Expected to pay website prices as advertised but charged $3 more when I went to collect. Really!? Why charge your customer more when the online service not working is not their fault. Fix your pricing so your pricing is consistent.
Really! you blame me for the confusion and accuse me of lying about your online system not working. Own the error! You set the prices on your menu on your website and on your online ordering system and in your shop. 3 different prices. You or the guy who served me when I came to collect did not offer me any apology and did not offer to honour the online price. And it was your counter staff who cancelled the order so I left your shop. Glad to see youâve now sorted your...
   Read moreI tried the Chicken Fried Rice and Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup during my visit. Overall, it was an average experience.
The Chicken Fried Rice was decent but didnât particularly stand out. The portion size was generous, and the rice had a nice texture, but the seasoning was somewhat underwhelming. Additionally, the chicken was not of high quality.
The Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup was a bit disappointing. I requested mild spiciness, but it was much spicier than expected, making it difficult to enjoy. However, the noodles had a satisfying texture, and the broth had a good base flavorâthough it was overshadowed by the overpowering spice. Additionally, the beef did not taste fresh.
Service was polite, and the restaurant had a cozy atmosphere, but the overall experience didnât quite meet my...
