Koffie Craft - Dutch Restaurant & Café — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

We came across koffie craft on Google and wanted to check it out. It was love at first sip with the coffee. We also loved their menu. We missed eating Dutch pancakes in Amsterdam so had to try the oven baked pancakes here!

We have been here twice and here’s what we have tried:

Breakfast waffles and pancakes - super light dough that melts in your mouth. You can easily have a meal and still eat them 😋 Grand breakfast - not your usual big breakfast, but every single dish is special. Their savoury tomato jam binds the dishes together Gouda chicken breast - Super tender chicken breast topped with cheese, served with lettuce salad, tomato sauce and potato waffles. Oven baked Dutch baby pancakes (chocolate baby) - death by pancake filled with three scoops of vanilla icecream, dark chocolate sauce and freshly made cherry compote. This is a meal by itself! Don’t share 🙃 Iced cheese koffie - who would even come up with this? Freshly brewed black coffee topped with cream cheese! This is the best thing ever! We have been addicted to this ever since Hot latte - their 100% arabica coffee beans are amazing, this was definitely different from the other coffees we have had! Bossche Bol - home baked light and airy puff filled with vanilla scented cream and coated with dark chocolate sauce 🤤

Given a choice we would eat these all over again, but they have too many different dishes to choose from, so can’t wait to try those, especially their burnt cheesecakesss!

The owners are over 60 years old, they greet the guests and check in on you after you finish every dish. Also a reason why we would go back! Extremely positive environment, warm hospitality and...

This cafe shows the immeasurable value well-trained staff bring to the table as the food I had did not suit my tastes at all yet I'm considering giving this place another go- just for the pleasure of the fantastically trained staff. For Koffie Craft has achieved a real sweet spot here in terms of service, being friendly but unobtrusive while still indicating that they're clearly ready to help with any questions and requests.

Unfortunately as for the food, it seems that perhaps certain Dutch tastes just dont agree with my Malaysian palate: to me, the poffertjes taste too strongly of yeast, the pancakes while wonderfully soft had jarringly sour berry compote which clashed with the sickly sweetness of the syrup, and the filling of bitterballens quite frankly just tasted like claggy wallpaper paste. Even loading up on mustard didnt help. I am extremely regretful and conflicted about noting these observations but it is in hopes that other Malaysians can have an idea what to expect. I will also note that everything else that came with the bitterballen like the bread and salad were beautifully presented and quite good, especial kudos for serving me the most well tossed salad I've ever had the pleasure of eating in my life. I'll most probably return to try another, more conventional dish like a...

First let's start by saying I'm a cafe/bar hopper and a food critic. If the food tastes bad, or bad service, I'll just move on to another place.

First time, I was full already and I just googled "best dessert in the sphere and it listed me Koffie Craft". So I met Koffie craft by chance, and ordered the dessert (in pic), but after that night I reminded myself "I'll definitely come back here, it's just too good".

Here comes my second time. Today I ordered Salmon Quinoa. It's RM45 for a fillet, it's super cheap (compared to a Japanese restaurant in Nexus which gave me a salmon fish 'scrap' quality for RM90, with bad customer service. Funny that restaurant is rated #7 in KL, meh).

Note that on average, the main dishes cost around 30-ish (The salmon dishes cost ~RM45 nett). And for dessert, they cost just 20-ish. I never tried their beverage yet, but there are quite a bunch.

My only concern about Koffie Craft is it's slightly hard for the disability with a wheelchair or some with the heavy (kid) stroller to enter because there are roughly 0.5 cm gap/height at the entrance door. ^Well, I tell ya I'm a critic.

That aside, with the top notch customer service and great food quality. There will definitely be a third time for me, which normally, I rarely do. But for Koffie Craft, it is just...
