More than a petrol station

Gone are the days where Petrol stations were just a place you pump your petrol and buy some snacks. 

Stepping into the Petron at the East-West link, Taman Connaught, Cheras (along IKON Shopping Centre) is like walking in to a cafe! I kid you not! With proper tables and chairs and proper meals to satisfy your hunger, this place is worth checking out!

This Petron branch at Taman Connaught, Cheras houses a Quiznos Sub and a coffee chain called The Coffee Brewery. 

 This little cafe kiosk can serve up some rather amazing food and quench your thirst in more ways that you can imagine. 

The Coffee Brewery offers hot drinks, iced drinks and even ice blended drinks like these (they call it slush) to cool down on a hot sunny day. Drinks are interesting. We tried the Pecan Nut Flavoured Coffee in Slush form (RM12.20) and the Roasted Matcha Shake (RM16.00). 

For non-coffee drinkers, there is also something for you. You can opt for the Chocolate Slush (RM12.20) or the Pink Ladies (RM10.30) as a refreshing alternative.

And if you want to have a fuller meal, you can even have a Quiznos Sub. You can enjoy Quiznos in the form of a Sub (sandwich) and in this case I had a tuna sub.

You can even enjoy it in the form of a pizza if you want something light. It is thin and crispy to perfection. This is perfect for me as I am very much a pizza fan. Here I tried the Baja Chicken and the Mesquite Chicken. 

You can even add on waffle fries (RM4.90) as sides.

There are various fillings available. The sub comes in two sizes Regular and Large.The prices will be based on the fillings you pick.

Oh! By the way, for morning rush hours before your head in to work, you can even grab a bite with Quiznos' Breakfast Breakie Bites starting from RM6.00. Quiznos Sub can also be found at Jaya Shopping Centre, Mid Valley and JB Paradigm Mall.

The Coffee Brewery at this Petron branch also offers  pasta and waffles. I tried the classic cabonara (RM10.30)

and their berries waffle (RM15.00). The food presentation looks awesome and it comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It's a perfect match that goes well with these waffles.

All these at a Petron? Oh Yes! Cafe styled food at a petrol station.

Wait....there's more......

What! They even serve mooncakes at a Petrol Station now? Yup! You've heard me right! Step right up into this Petron station at Taman Connaught and sink your teeth into some awesome mooncake flavours. Pair these mouthwatering mooncakes with a cup of hot coffee or hot tea at an unbeatable price. They have pretty interesting tea flavours too you know. This Cream Orange Tea (RM9.40) is bursting with aromatic flavour.

For RM19.90 you will get a cup of hot coffee and a mooncake. What a great deal this is!

Coffee and Mooncake Pairing.

These mooncake flavours just made my mouth water. 

 A box of 2 mooncakes are sold at RM38.80 and it comes in this classy packaging. 

5 amazing mooncake flavours are readily available. 

The Golden Gem

 The Golden Gem is my favourite. It is actually a salted egg custard mooncake. Sounds interesting eh?

Wait....I gotta tell you this. The inner egg yolk is actually not your usual hard egg yolk. It is soft and oozing with salted egg. Something different from the usual mooncakes I must say.

Classic Select

 Classic Select consist of white lotus single yolk. You can never go wrong with this. If you are buying mooncakes for older folks, pick this one. I love softness and freshness of the lotus paste in this one. And the best part is, it is not too sweet. 

The green one is the Matcha Tiramisu if you are looking for some unconventional flavours.

 The mooncake festival is coming soon. 

Hope you find your perfect mooncakes for gifting.

Besides this Petron station in Taman Connaught, you can also hop in to the Library Coffee Bar at IOI City Mall, 1 Utama and Penang Gurney Paragon to get your hands on these mouthwatering mooncakes. Or get it at the Coffee Brewery outlet at DPulze Shopping Centre at Cyberjaya.
