BTB China House Penang

Talk about China House and everybody will relate it with this key words, Heavenly/Awesome/Superb/Delicious Cakes. Without doubt, China House is famous for its wide spread of delicious bakes that everybody just craves for it.

It has been a while since I was last there and I am extremely thrilled to be there once again to experience dining at BTB, a quiet dining section that serves modern western style dishes influenced by an eclectric mix of Asian and Middle Eastern Cuisines.

As you turn in from the main walkway, BTB is set in elegant yet cozy ambiance, making dining such pleasurable.

Now for the moment, something nobody could possibly resist, cake time! Infact, when you enter the premise, the cakes will be the first thing that would probably catch your attention first as you enter. Looking at the cakes at the chiller already makes you craving and tempted to eat it badly, but wait til you see the cake counter with a whole load of cakes displayed on the table. Easily over 25 variations for you to choose from. So, good luck in choosing haha..

For that night we had the Salted Caramel Cheese, Carrot Walnut, Banana Mocha Frosting, Chocoholic Chocolate, Passionfruit Coconut Butter and Tiramisu. The Tiramisu and the Salted Caramel Cheese are among those sought after cakes back here.
