Brew N Bread Wisma MCA — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

Here for the Breakfast + Coffee

My first encounter with Brew N Bread was a pleasant one. It was pre-MCO, the missus had some works to do in Kota Kemuning and I had time to kill while waiting for her. Found this cafe and to my surprise the food, cakes and coffees were good.

They have since expanded their operation by opening new outlets in KL city - and this outlet in Wisma MCA right in the smack of KLCC area was one of them. It's still far by my standard - but once in a while I have to go to city centre so I can plan my breakfast first.

Perhaps it was the general vibes of the cafe, or even the friendliness of their service crew that gave me the good impression. The smell of coffee was intoxicating as I pushed the door open. Limited table outside the cafe for alfresco, but sitting inside especially in the morning could get pretty cold.

◾Eggs Benedict - fried chicken was used as the meat of choice but I am not complaining. I have to say that their bright yellow hollandaise sauce was gorgeous - luscious, creamy & flavourful - and paired well with the oozing egg yolk as I cut the poached egg. A tummy filling classic dish with a twist! ◾Hot Sandwiches - Jamaican chicken & Tuna Melt. I was glad that they have variety of sandwiches with different fillings to choose from because the young ones had different taste bud. All sandwiches were nicely toasted with fresh lettuce, tomato and respective filling. ◾Coffee - the "Driver" coffee that I drank had this chocolatey note in it, which made me swooned. The note was more pronounced in their long black, but in flat white.. it has this nice strong flavour and butter aftertaste.

They are serious on their coffee and depending on the time that you go, they have dishes catered for breakfast, brunch, lunch or even early dinner. Or just check out their pastry and cake selection at the counter.

The service was definitely courteous, and my visit was made welcome from the moment I stepped inside the cafe until the "thank you"...

Being impressed is an understatement when I made my visit to Brew N Bread. From the moment that I stepped inside, the service has been exceptional and courteous by the waiters and waitresses. Even the deco and the ambiance of the cafe is nice and beautiful. But the most impressive aspect of this cafe will be its incredible foods.

First, the fettuccine pesto pasta was superb. For RM23, the portion is very big and filling, and it's also filled with mushrooms, tomatoes and also chicken. Taste wise, it's the best pesto pasta I ever had. I'm not a pesto connoisseur but I love the very herby taste of the pesto, with the subtle hint of saltiness and creaminess from the parmesan, making it a very satisfying plate of pasta. The wild mushroom scramble egg toast is also excellent. Super creamy scrambled egg with perfectly seasoned mushroom on top of toast. It's a delicious brunch menu for RM19.

As for the Buttermilk French Toast with Fried Chicken, the portion is big as well, and the chicken is seasoned accordingly and very crispy despite drenched with the buttermilk sauce. But somehow the buttermilk was too sweet for my liking, and the French toast itself is too thick and tough, the egg mixture only coats the outside of the bread. Double boiled mushroom soup meanwhile is unique on its own. The soup is like a cream based soup and the mushroom is put into the cream. Not the usual mushroom soup that you usually have. Unfortunately I didn't taste the pastries but they looked great.

Overall, I can say the foods really tick the boxes very well. The Fettuccine Pesto and wild mushroom scramble egg toast are impressive and I really love it. Some of it can be further improved. The best part of this place is the price of the menu is very affordable as compared to other cafe, and taking account the quality of its dishes, the ambiance and the service, this is the best cafe that I have ever been in KL. I will definitely come again and happy to be a regular patron...

This gonna cafe going to be my weekend cafe or brunch cafe ✅ one of the reasonable prices, good ingredients, right amount of portion and good quality of pasta ✅ 👍🏽 RM16 aglio olio ? at first we thought this gonna be a simple and nothing to shout out mana tahu their aglio olio is delicious ❗ their refreshing drinks it is nice too ✅ but the only problem is the parking

Price : RM16 aglio olio ! this I would like to shout out ! average of their main course is about RM20 to RM25 and drinks wise like normal cafe price but their refreshing drinks if RM13 each cup I think this would catch more attention

Portion : right amount for a pax

Taste/Quality : 4.5/5 (overall including drinks)

Environment : 4.5/5

Parking : before 1pm - RM3 per hour and after 1pm RM6 per entry (during weekend) - this is one of the things that I couldn't accept

Service : have to improve on this (during my visit on this cafe I have ordered 2 drinks and one of the M size body waitress literally forgot my drinks and we waited about 15 mins and one of the malay staff immediate take actions to get our drinks)

Payment : cash and card (e-wallet not sure)

Definitely will come back for their pasta and refreshing drinks ✅ hopefully next visit can see some improvement...
