My first visit to Butter and Olive was the opening of their Bayan Lepas/Relau branch. I have been there several times as that is the nearest shop for me to visit. I have tried many of their buns and cakes. This time, we visited their Sungai Dua branch where it has beverage station and they also serve set lunch.
