There are so many wonderful delicacies around us in Penang but you won't expect Mona Lisa painting element in a cafe. D' Fat Mona Lisa cafe used to be one of my favourite breakfast spots.
The previous menu was simple and minimalist, but the new one is designed with newspaper concept and there were many new and creative dishes being rolled out since my last visit, including the "Tycoon" Platter. I thought it was tempting and I decided to have a try.
So, the "Tycoon" Platter looks like this. A great portion for two persons. The platter has a big portion of lettuce salad, served with roasted sesame sauce and thousand island sauce. A vege lover will love it.
I like the wholemeal croissant the most. It is stuffed with scrambled egg made with special sauce. There's a slice of sour dough with a sunny side up egg on top. The egg yolk is perfectly matched with the sour dough. The ham and cheese omelette roll-ups were the best! Mixed with ham and sausage, the fragrance of the omelette has been brought out. The cheese also melted perfectly between the ham and sausage.
Did you notice all three items were made with eggs? These may be friendly to the egg lovers. The platter is also topped with herbs and basil, which could enhance the overall taste. But to be honest, this platter wasn't bad but it didn't wow me. The platter is too simple, which can be prepared with not much effort. It could be better if they could serve some bacon strips and mushrooms. The absence of nuts in the salad has certainly deducted some marks. But hey, on the bright side, the coffee wasn't so bad!
