I found this place accidently on my way to the lrt station - I was hungry after a long day of work and it would take another hour to get home... and it was an amazingly pleasant surprise!
The cafe is cosy with small intimate seating, warm lighting and soft background music.
Fre (the owner) greated me warmly and we swapped pleasantries while I decided on what I wanted to order. She agreed to make me one of the items from their brunch menu though it was closer to dinner time. She also offered to make the coffee I ordered as per my taste! She was super friendly and I felt immediately at home.
I ordered the chicken wrap and a medium-sized French vanilla latte and settled in to wait. I wondered why it took around 10 minutes or so for the food to arrive - and when it did- I realised why!
The wrap was extra large in size- the picture doesn't do it justice - and I took that in a hurry since I was so hungry! And it was so so good - moist with various sauces and succulent chicken pieces with lots of fresh vegetables. And it was freshly made! It didn't need any extra condiments- it was that tasty.
The coffee was as hot as I had asked it to be - and upon my request Feh added a couple extra pumps of the French vanilla flavouring cheerfully since we hadn't been sure of how sweet the normal would be and I like mine a little sweeter than usual :)
When I was almost done - Fre insisted I try an almond and jam cookie which she bakes herself. It was so so good - I don't have the words to describe it - it was flavourful and just the right amount of sweet.
All in all, I'll definitely be making more stops at this quaint cafe owned by this amazing...

The lady at the restaurant was incredibly kind and attentive, going above and beyond to make our visit memorable. When we inquired about special treats, she enthusiastically recommended their homemade cookies. Our kid couldn't resist trying the almond cookie, and to our delight, she also surprised us with pistachio cookies that were simply divine - they were truly mouthwatering!
To make our visit even more special, the lady served a complimentary hot chocolate drink for our child, which she absolutely adored. The warmth and kindness shown by the staff made the atmosphere of the cafe exceptionally welcoming and enjoyable.
