Now I don't know if this is the right place, but this is for the branch near Motorino and Wildflour... My friends and I crossed the street from the busy Fort Strip for some peace and quiet. We were all surprised to find out that Passion was already closed-- too bad. But we were really gunning for CBTL anyway. We entered the huge store and claimed a table for 5. The staff were very patient with the 5 noisy people, indecisive about their orders. I had my favorite Double Vanilla Tea latte (I like all of their tea lattes actually) and the rest had various kinds of tea or tea lattes. They have superior tea lattes over any other coffee shop, IMO...Anyway, my friends also ordered the Salted Caramel pancakes (not offered in all branches). Three pancakes topped with pieces of chocolate, whipped cream, and lots of salted caramel sauce. The sauce was too sweet (where's the salted part?) and cloying and the pancakes were not too fluffy... Not recommending the pancakes! Not recommending the honey bran muffin either, since I'm at it... This is one of their nicest branches ever since, open and inviting, with a clean restroom and fast wifi... It is always packed though!😊

Ordered the Bistro Fish and Chips. Wasn't happy with my order. It was soggy, reminded me of kikiam...but was below my expectations. They seemed to have modified this dish with indian spices. The actual battered fish had a distinct flavor and the tartar sauce did not taste like the traditional tartar sauce. Their bolognese was just okay. Their herbed chicken was tasty. The only things i enjoyed was its ambience, staff was friendly, and the turtle pie dessert (must-try).

In this post: Thai Tea Latte (hot and iced), Thai Tea Ice Blended, Roast Chicken & Mushroom Fusilli, Triple Decker Cheesecake  My visit at the KidZania branch of The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf last September 11, 2017 was welcomed with new and exciting drinks -- the Thai Tea Latte and the Thai Tea Ice Blended! Before we go to the drinks, I just like to mention that it's my first time to go in this branch. You can find it at the ground floor of KidZania, along 34th Street. It's spacious yet managed to be cozy. At the time I visited, there were not much customers. I'm not sure if that's the usual volume as the location is not so visible, but if it is, then it's a nice hangout place as it doesn't get really crowded.
