Purple Cane Tea Restaurant rox my sox. It floats my boat. It rules my world. It… it… it… it made me say silly exaggerated things that makes me sound lil’ looney baloony.
Purple Cane Tea Restaurant
I’ve been dying to visit the Purple Cane Tea Restaurant at Jalan Maharajalela since forever. Actually I went there once, but didn’t go in coz there were a bunch of noisy aunties standing at the entrance. I think they were having some auntie gathering or something so… uhm… no thank you! I had since then completely forgotten about it till recently when a new branch opened at The Gardens, Midvalley. *woo hoo!
Nice clay pot… also available for purchase :P
Purple Cane is really awesome coz they serve something different from conventional Chinese cuisines. I really love the idea of dishes prepared using tea or tea leaves. I imagined that it will be more aromatic and fine tasting.
Bu er
Being a tea house originally, it’s no surprise that they have an extensive choice of teas to choose from. We had ‘bu er’ tea coz it’s better for the stupid-gastric-infested tummy of mine. Eventhough they had served us our pot of tea, they gave us a mini sample of other tea which is available for purchase. *very good sales promoter haha
Green Tea Rice
I can honestly tell you that the food at Purple Cane is awfully good and less oily. It may not look like anything out of the ordinary but do not judge the book by its cover. Tea really brings out the flavor of every dish in the house.
Vegetable 4 in 1 cooked with pickle (long beans, petai, lady fingers, brinjal)
I’m not going to describe the dishes coz it would serve no justice but i particularly liked the ‘Vegetable 4 in 1 cooked with pickle’ dish coz the shredded pickle is really crunchy.
Tea Wine Chicken – huge mushroom and chicken
When we ordered our food, we had no idea that it will be this much. The portion is quite big. I think 2 dishes are sufficient for 2 persons.
Herbal steamed egg
I love this restaurant to bits. The fact that the service was extremely good and the crew was very efficient plus incredibly polite gets another star from me. We didn’t have to wait long for our food despite the crowd. And i loved it when the staff asked for our comments before we walk out of the restaurant. It made me feel that my say counts *eventhough if he’s just asking out of politeness :P
Bu er Tea (2 persons) – RM4.00
Herbal Steamed Egg – RM7.00
Vegetable 4 in 1 with Pickle – RM15.00
Tea Wine Chicken – RM18.00
Green Tea Rice (2 persons) – RM2.00
