I came here twice and I seem to forget to blog about it.

Sometimes I just enjoy it too much and hence the forgetfulness.

     

It's at a corner of a turn and its been one of the successful cafes I've seen in Dungun that didn't go out of business.

It's quite comfortable inside because it's air-conditioned, and Dungun is just so hot.

Lemonade (Big) - RM 6.00

Refreshing! That sour yet sweet taste!

Chocolate (Big) (Instant) - RM 6.00

This is so good although its instant powder mix. 

Mocha Coffee (Brew) - RM 9.00

Use fresh beans, a bit on the bitter side but still quite alright.

Vanilla Oreo Cream Frappe - RM 7.00

This is the boom! Thought it would taste cheap but its quite nice!

Krapow Chicken with Rice - RM 10.90 

It's like those basil thai food. Really really good.

Especially the sauce!

Carbonara - RM 11.90

Although it doesn't look very appetizing, but its quite creamy and delicious! 

Chicken Teppanyaki - RM 7.90 

I think their Teppanyakis are all very worth it. It's a lot and well, my dad likes it. 

Being the typical Chinese uncle, more is worth it haha.

 Lamb Teppanyaki - RM 10.90

Lamb is sooooo juicy! Fragrant and doesn't have that kinda smell.

Smoke Duck Teppanyaki - RM 14.90

Duck is almost to perfection but none the less, still very tasty to consume.

Overall, it's a great place for hangout and great lunch spot too!

Lady boss is really nice too.

They are moving to a new location soon, and hoping their new place gets start up real soon too!

So while running errands in KT, mom told me there's a container cafe she saw the last time she came up to KT.

I was wondering why not?

In my mind I was like how great can this cafe be?

Since I've been to so many awesome cafes in KL and elsewhere.

Once I saw how magnificent it was, I never felt so guilty in my life.

Who would have thought to see such an impressive cafe?

So to clarify this, it is not 1919 cafe.

The 1919 you are looking at is actually Jawi wordings.

It means Qawa (Kawa), coffee in Jawi.

It is very spacious on the ground floor where you can see the road and also the counter.

Chilli red eh?

While ordering, it was all smiles from the barista.

Made our ordering full of laughter.

MENU time!

Fancy some coffee or tea?

If you're hungry, you can have a munch on their sandwiches and salads.

Want something cold too? Why not have an ice blended or a frap?

Seeing student prices makes me missing my uni days.

Damn.

Time to feast your eyes on their cakes!

They use this particular coffee bean called Qawa.

Heading onto the floor above, the staircase is behind the container.

I wish they would do a bit of shade, so if it's raining, people can still walk up.

Once we got in, everything is so RETRO!

That joker gave me the creeps!

All the different old cameras are all placed inside the cupboard to be view for display.

Helmets and shades too!

Macaroon - RM 3 each

How cheap is that?

We have here, a lemon, blueberry and mint flavour.

And honestly, these are not as sweet as they should be.

I am surprised because macaroons are hard to make and without proper much of sugar, it won't work.

It's really good!

Peach Tea - RM 10.00

This is so refreshing on a hot sunny day in KT.

Just what we need.

Iced Toffeenut Latte - RM 11.50

Not too sweet, not too bitter.

In the way I like it.

An overview.

Overall, it is pretty fascinating to see such a cafe that exist in KT.

Although the drinks are pretty pricey but it is definitely worth a slurp!

Wouldn't mind coming back again to try out their sandwiches.

Well, hello hello!

Welcome to Part 2!

Because there are a lot of alleys and I don't think one post is enough for all, since there are many pictures for all to see.

Here is the Tauke Wee Seng Hee Cultural Lane

The lane is named after a wealthy Chinese trader whose former shop happened to be next to the alley.

The alley features vintage stuff like the telephone booth and post-office box that is still currently in use.

This wall is all full of old sign boards from the shops in Chinatown.

Whereas this wall is full of Chinese calligraphy Han Dynasty era poems.

Beautiful isn't it?

Moving on to the Eco Lane.

Cool idea to use worn out shoes to plant plants eh?

One of the shop owners nearby this lane decided to dedicate the lane with batiks as a tribute to Terengganu's batiks.

Pretty isn't it?

No one would have thought of that.

You can see clearly by the sun rays that beam through the batiks as their styles are different from one another.

Next lane coming up is

Lorong Haji Awang Besar

A Malay style decorative, named after a wealthy Malay businessman who lives nearby.

This wooden house is donated by his family which is also a reminder for all of the small Malay population that lives in Chinatown previously.

Last but not least

Payang Memory Lane

The name is taken from the nearby "Pasar Payang" which happens to sell lots and lots of different batik.

It pays tribute to the leaders of the Chinese community of Kuala Terengganu.

Seven leaders whose face are up on the wall on the left hand side of the alley, their names and what they did for the community were stated.

The umbrellas are to symbolized how the local community is “united in diversity”.

and that is all!

This is in Pasar Payang where there are lots of batik shops around.

Can't give an estimate figure because there are really a lot.

So do stop by Chinatown if you get the chance to come to Terengganu.

You wouldn't regret it.
