Visited 26 Feb 2016.

This was our maiden trip into JB, first time we are driving into Malaysia without my dad. We were joined by OPF, Lianne and Makcik Elena. Initially it was pretty 心惊胆跳 cos of all the "horror" stories about driving in Malaysia... but hubby was really brave and drove like a pro. Armed with printed addresses and names of the destination, and the car GPS system... we made it into and out of Johor without any hiccups... we did a bit of detour here and there, but that was expected... GPS is quite a confusing thing sometimes... and we made it. That trip paved the way for more future trips for hubby and I... so much that now, my dad just lets my hubby drive when he joins us for our JB trips.

Anyway, OPF said that there is this very famous cheesecake which used to have a shop in Orchard, but closed down, called Uncle Tetsu. And I was like... got meh? Never heard of it before. So ok, googled and printed down the name. When we finished shopping at Aeon Tebrau, we went to the shop to buy cheesecake. I still remember along the way, we kept saying how come OPF bring us to such ulu places (GPS keep bringing us to small roads)... bring us to sell is it? When we reached Jalan Austin Heights... wow, we were surprised... the area seemed really atas, as they had a lot of restaurants and shops... all looked trendy and upmarket too. And we bought one chocolate and one original flavored cheesecake to bring home. The cheesecake has to be kept in the fridge if not consumed within 12 hours, so we usually try to coincide this place as the last stop.

The cheesecake is soft and light... in fact, feels a bit like eating sponge cake. Pretty good... @ RM21 for the signature cheesecake... less than S$10 for a cheesecake leh... value for money.

They have this in original and chocolate flavor. Both are nice. The chocolate flavored one reminds me of the Rich & Good Cake Shop's swiss rolls.

Uncle Tetsu Cheese Zuccotto (Hat Series) 

We wanted to try the Strawberry flavored one, but at 2pm they were sold out already! Next time then.
