Qi Bakery & Cafe — Restaurant in Johor

Located in the heart of Permas New Town, it's one of the few local bakeries that's quite nice. It's spanned across 2 shop-lots, one is the cafe while the next door is a bakery.

I have been to the cafe once a long time ago but I can't recall about my experience there, so I'm gonna just review the bakery.

Prices are good and the selection of breads/pastries are not bad. I like their wholemeal bread, thick milk bread slices, green tea with red bean bread and many others.

Qi Bakery & Café｜ Permas Jaya, Johor Bahru

Qi Bakery & Café 是 Permas 区难得保留着老派西餐与亚洲 经典料理风味的小店。

菜单从各式西餐，蘑菇汤， 到本地式炒饭、意粉一应俱全, 让人瞬间回到小时候与家人外 出吃“西餐厅”的记忆。

份量实在、价格合理， 是那种不花哨却诚意满满的餐厅类型。

如今要找到保有这种菜单风格与味道 的小馆子，真的不多了。

空间不大，但整体整洁舒适， 适合日常家庭用餐或朋友聚会。

如果你怀念那种“旧时味”的西餐厅， 这里值得一来。

Qi Bakery & Café is one of those rare gems in Permas that still holds onto the comforting flavours of classic Western fare and familiar Asian dishes.

From mushroom soup to fried rice, spaghetti to grilled mains, the menu brings back memories of the old-school “Western restaurants” we used to visit with family in our younger days.

Portions are generous, pricing is fair, and the overall dining experience is honest and heartfelt — no frills, just food that’s cooked with intention.

It’s becoming increasingly rare to find eateries that still offer this kind of menu and flavour profile.

Though the space is modest, it’s tidy and cozy, making it ideal for casual meals with loved ones or a relaxed catch-up with friends.

If you’re someone who misses the nostalgic taste of "Western food" the way it used to be, this place is worth a visit.
