What A Difference!

This afternoon we went to a popular ko-pi-teem for our lunch. Four of us ordered bread... 4 different types of bread varieties and among the four, this tuna sandwich was the most disappointing.

How could this type of tuna sandwich be served at a well-known and popular ko-pi-teem? Kind of disappointing, right? No doubt the price is only RM3.80 but please, do a better job .... Though I am NO good-a-cook, I think I can anytime do better than this above... (trust me!)

For fun we were discussing about opening a cafe called Elin Tidbits Corner and what we are going to cook and sell to our customers... (of course I m not the one cooking la.. but I can serve and collect money vert.. right? heheheee) and definitely one of the special in the menu will be this...

So... what do u think?
Which would u rather prefer?
Ko-pi-teem or Elin's Tidbits Corner?

  9. Tuna looks a little disappointing, they didn't put much tuna salad on it. I would much rather have the second sandwich. Looks more like something you would be willing to pay money for. LOL

    I would choose the second one. It looks more delicious than the first one.

    happy weekend

  13. Oh, forget to answer your question... I'd cut my hand and leg for a bite of 2nd sandwich! I'm a fan of sandwich, just like Cikgu, but the first one... looks so yuck!!!

  14. That tuna sandwich does look a bit sad though. The second sandwich looks like my kinda thing, a great big door stopper! lol!

  15. Well... stupid Old Town White Coffee make horrid tuna sandwich. They should be banned from making them, Claire..

  21. Must plan a trip down to Ipoh for makan makan... :)

  22. Going by the picture...the second one would be an obvious choice.If you guys serve that kinda food then people will surely select your cafe.The first one surely looks disappointing.One does have a lot of expectation from well known eating joints and if that doesn't meet the expectation then one surely feels cheated.

  23. Some of the food there is not delicious enough. But to be fair...it is relatively cheap compared to other more fancy restaurant. So..no complains from me I guess. :p

  24. The best sandwiches are from Subway! :p

    ReplyDelete
  25. Old Town White Coffee food is terrible and I think the bring a bad name to Ipoh too !

    ReplyDelete
  26. I think their standard drop now? Now i prefer another popular ko-pi-teem. :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. OMG..what were they thinking when they made that tuna sandwich?! Stuffing them with tomato slices is the least they can do..

    its a whole different story with the 2nd sandwich..one glance and it's already a winner! :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Wah... can see a lot of "liew" in that multi-storey sandwich. Can imagine how sedap it is already!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Of course I would choose Elin's Tidbits Corner.. But my mom's cooking is still the best, nothing can beat it!
