The place looks like it officially opened today (1st May 2016). Flowers were strewn all over the front of the shop. The interior has a kinda homey feel (with a soda bar inside) with a mix of benches and cottage style chairs.

Unfortunately at the time of writing there were no baby chairs available. The owner said that they are trying to get them in. They were expecting more adults but ended up with a lot of family diners.
After speaking to one of the owners, they said this is a branch from Kuching and Sibu. The first branch is called Tom's and the second Tom's Too. They decided to call their third branch in KK Another Tom's.
Enough history lesson, We placed our orders. We asked for their recommendations, so they suggested us to try their italian soda's. We ordered the Peach and the Passion Fruit soda's as they were recommended by the owner. Basically, they it looks like syrup with carbonated water.

The owner was nice enough to give us complimentary mushroom soup since there wasn't any baby chair. So far service has been tremendously good.

Mushroom soup was on the salty side but other than that it was full of mushroomy flavor. Once we cleared the soup our teriyaki pork with rice came. I'm not too big of a fan of teriyaki flavors so the flavor didn't appeal to me. The pork was nicely done like a softer charsiu texture lightly dressed with teriyaki sauce. However, its kinda pricey for charsiu rice.

After a long wait, the club panini still hasn't arrived. The teriyaki pork has long been finished so we inquired about the order. The waitress promptly got back to us and said that it would be out in 2 minutes. A few moments later the owner checked with us if we have gotten all our orders yet. We told the owner that the panini still hasn't arrived. The owner promptly apologised and said they would check on it. Understandably, this is the first week they opened, so we expect some hiccups along the way. Again, while having hiccups, service was still at its peak.
Finally the panini arrived, fingers crossed that its as delicious as it looks.

Two bites and i'm half way through my sandwich hehe.. I love it. I think its hard to find good sandwich places in KK so this is something I really enjoy. The panini was stuffed with egg, chicken, ham lettuce and tomato. I might have missed out some other ingredients but basically those were it. There is just something about the bread that they used that makes it so nice to eat. Even the kiddo who normally doesn't take sandwiches was occupied nibbling on it. My only gripe would be the use of frozen fries instead of hand cut ones, but its a minor thing.
I wish we had time to try the cakes, from we were sitting they looked really worthwhile to load up on the calories for. We'll probably give it a go next time.
Overall, from what we ordered and saw from the other tables, they seem to be better at western style cooking. Ordering asian food at these kinda prices are a little pricey in my opinion. So the next time I visit it would probably be for their western menu. Lastly, they do not have service charges here, so if you felt service was good, do give them a reasonable tip to keep service levels good.
