Enjoyed the overall experience here, the staff is very friendly. Thank you Afro for hosting us and for your patience with us. We were here for our bookclub meeting. The food took a bit long but we were a big group so it's understandable. Loved the presentation of the food, and the signature dish (prawn and chorizo pasta) was definitely 👌 delicious 😋. Teddy is very down to Earth. Thank you for such a lovely place.
I had booked the high tea for 3 of us. I must say the revamp of the decor is mindblowing. The scent is that of a spa very relaxing and calming. We were shown to our table. The ladies are very attentive and very friendly. We're given a starter of falafel and yogurt with zaatar and mimosas. Next, they brought out the mezze platters and sweet treats. We're given a run-through of what was served, and I must say, for the price, the food was a lot. We ordered the veg option of the high tea and were spoiled for choice. There was so much leftover. There was a special "Happy Birthday" surprise of a cup cake and song. The ambiance is definitely nothing short of regality. I truly appreciate the high level of service and attention to detail. Thank you "Just Teddy"❣️
Edit (08/11/2023):
I've since returned to Just Teddy by invitation from Teddy and can confidently change my reviews rating. The experience the second time round was great ! Food was prepared well and this time had the flavours which was missing the first time around .
My first time it seems was just a bad day , seems even great restaurants have them as well. My take away from this experience , is that you should at least try the place twice if the first time was not a great experience , but give it a month or so later before you return for the redo experience . We are all only human .
I'd strongly recommend giving this restaurant a go , you will not regret it !!
************* Original Review **********************
I visited on the 17th , we were quite excited to go, having not been there before.
We placed our drinks orders , our waiter was very attentive and friendly , giving service with a smile.
My Scarlett Chai was made really well.
I ordered the Luxury Scramble, which was well prepared , but the Scramble egg didn't have much of a flavor , unless it was by design and the rest of the dish would provide the flavor. A little disappointing though. Since the menu said it was their "renowned Scramble eggs" .
My wife ordered the Eggs Benedict. She enjoyed it.
However, the macaroons we ordered afterward were not great at all.
It was more like eating a very sweet tart . I love macaroons. I've had them from many places all around the world .
With this been voted best patisserie in 2022 I was expecting it to be great . Sadly not. To this day, the best ones I've tasted were in Switzerland made by Lindt.
The Scarlett Chai was not very good the second time around, neither was my wife's Rooibos Cuppucinno .
It seems to be a consistency issue here. For the price they charge they should not let this happen.
Not sure I'll try this branch again.
