Well, basically I'm back in my 'kampung'. It has been twice within 1 month. I have been coming back quite often lately. Dianah will be travelling to KL again for her YES Alumni thingy. It's going to be around 1 1/2 weeks. So I'll only be seeing her towards Chinese New Year the next round.
One of my 'plan' for 2014 is to visit every heritage cafes in Penang. So far I've only been 2. First was, Twelve cups(didn't manage to blog about this yet) and The Alley is the 2nd.
This visit was not a planned one. It was on Sunday. We went for grocery shopping and since it was still early, I thought, let's go and have a cup of tea at The Alley. I got to know about this cafe through one of the blog that I read a few days ago. It is a small little cafe situated at a corner lot side. You can choose to sit outside or inside(air-conditioned). For those who come in a group, can be seated at the back of the shop. Basically they serve coffee and desserts like churros, cheesecake(not many choices though). But they also have light snacks like sandwiches. I ordered hot chocolate and Juan ordered caramel latte. The hot chocolate was just okay, but I prefer the one from McCafe from McDonald.
The place is quite small therefore the chairs and tables are limited. But there's a lot of space for you to walk around. For a shop like this, the price is just okay. For a small size churros (4 sticks with 1 dip), it cost about RM6 while the big one (6 sticks), the price is RM9(with 2 dips). You have 3 different dips to choose from which are Nutella, Cinnamon sugar and Salted caramel. Since this is the first time I had churros, I'm not sure how the real churros tasted like as I'm not able to make comparison. I should try churros at other cafe perhaps to make comparison.
The Alley is open from 12pm to 12am everyday.
Address: 5, Stewart Lane, 10200, Georgetown, Penang.
To all Pestle and Mortar fans, you can purchase their merchandise at The Alley.
