Uncle Tetsu, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Uncle Tetsu’s cheese cake is very soft, sweet, and savoury; a perfect combination of cream cheese and high quality butter. Besides the cheese cakes, there are cheese tarts and madelines (new).

In Malaysia, there are 2 outlets : Pavilion Mall and Mid Valley Mall. I went to the one in Pavilion Mall, located on the Basement Floor. The store is small, near the escalator. I bought the cheese tarts and madelines since I had tried the cheese cake in Jakarta.

The cheese tart is good! The tart is crunchy, very light, soft, and less sweet. The cream cheese is also less sweet and delicious! Slightly salty, savoury, but creamy and buttery tasted. You can eat more than one cheese tarts and never get too much.

The madelines are actually muffins. There are 4 flavors: Early Grey, Matcha, Chocolate, and Honey. Actually, the texture is not as fluffy as I thought. It’s full, un-fluffy (bantat), and less sweet. Seems like eating brownies. I don’t like the madelines, except the chocolate flavor.

Overall, two thumbs up for Uncle Tetsu! The cheese cake is very good, as well as the cheese tarts. For the madelines, they need some improvement in the dough and the flavor taste. Heading up to Uncle Tetsu now!
