Kenny Hills Bakers @ TTDI

In the face of grimness and adversity, we must seek joy and respite. So we eat hah..hah..hah...

My brother and I had completed a mission. Our mother raised the white flag the day before and admitted that she can no longer cope with our dad's caregiving. She is severely exhausted and overwhelmed.

We totally understand since she is already 80 years old and has faithfully nursed dad for the past 22 years. It is time that she retire from her nursing duties.

Our cousin introduced us to his doctor friend who is managing a nursing home and we met with her that very morning. After speaking with her and viewing the facilities, we made the decision to enroll dad to be cared at the home.

Honestly, we feel sad to have to come to this decision but reality prevails. Mum is no longer able to manage and my brother and I have to focus on our work. There has already been too many disruptions to our personal and professional lives. It is not right for us to carry on like this. Hence the decision.

So after we left the nursing home, we had to seek respite and fill our hungry tummies. My brother suggested that we try Kenny Hills Bakers at Taman Tun Dr Ismail. Finally!   

We were there at the thick of lunch hour (full house) but we were lucky to get a seat after a short wait.

I liked what I saw on the menu.

Ah, QR code ordering and my phone somehow could not scan the code. 

But my brother managed to get it. While waiting for our orders, I went around to inspect the yummies.

Well, well. This is a dessert lover's paradise.

You are really spoilt for choice. 

I couldn't take pictures of the interior because there were people everywhere.

Besides pastries, there were loads of crusty bread.

Whoa! We ordered desserts up front together with our mains and these were served first. Why not, eh?

Somebody sang praises of the Peach Strudel, so how could I not sink my teeth into it? Well, it was divine. Most divine! My brother could not agree more.

The Tiramisu (the alcohol option, there is also a choice without booze) was also lovely but we loved the Peach Strudel more. Coffee (Flat White) was excellent.

This was my Roast Beef Sandwich. The bread was crusty and crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside.

The roast beef? Nyum! I was very pleased with my choice. This is what a roast beef sandwich should be, not like this one.

My brother went with The Big Breakfast with beef bacon and scrambled eggs. It was a huge serving and he was struggling to finish it.

Hence I got to taste some. 

Service here I would say is commendable and the wait staff are very responsive.

While enjoying my meal, I spotted the wood fire oven. One day we must try the pizza.

My brother and I were pretty impressed with the food and service and we are very certain that we would return. But maybe not so soon.

This place is by no means cheap and my siblings and I are very stretched financially due to our father's costly medical bills. So we have to be careful with our spending.

But we are glad for this one experience. We will save it for a special occasion. Many thanks to my brother for the lovely treat!
