This relatively new lil cafe is located in an unassuming location in Medan Imbi. Got a lil lost cos I missed the turning but it’s not too bad cos the turn back isn’t too far off. It’s beside the famous Sun Fong Bak Kut Teh. Can park on street tho very limited but there’s also a paid open air parking space beside which cost RM6 per entry.
What we tried for brunch (was here around 10am so managed to beat the lunch crowd):
Fish and Chips The Butterfish used was so fresh, meaty, smooth and buttery. Love that they used cornflakes as the coating which gives that extra crunch and crispiness.
Tandoori Satchel The housemade mint chutney sauce really complemented those smoky tandoori chicken bites so well, made the dish taste refreshing 👍
Gochujang Chicken Salad Love that it’s served with fresh coral lettuce and not just chicken like how most places would serve it. Eat the chicken bites wrapped in a salad makes it less cloying and more appetizing 😋
Tamago Quesadilla
Tomato-Tomahto Soup
Healthy Fudgy Cacao Brownies with Sizzling Vanilla Ice Cream
Tiramisu Latte
Tropical Sunrise Loved this! So refreshing and the combo of fresh orange and lime juice with strawberry puree was so delish! I can have 10 of this 😆
No frills simplistic set up for a casual dining feel. Service was excellent, all staffs are accommodating and warm. Food here is very much of a East meets West concept but with a twist. Pretty interesting dishes I’d say.
Pork free & Head chef and his team of cooks...
Read moreFantastic. Everything we tried was good, but, the favorites were:
Tandoori chicken pita with mint chutney. Very well balanced, and the mint chutney drizzled over the top gives it the perfect little zing. The pita bread was fresh, soft and with just a slight char around the edges that I loved.
Coconut latte. Wow! I've tasted a lot of coconut lattes, and most of them good. But this one is on a different level. Perfection. Somehow the coconut flavor remains prominent, yet the well roasted flavor of the coffee isn't lost. It still shines through so you know you're drinking coffee, and not just a cup of coconut. Very well done!
Tiramisu latte. This one was double the wows, because the owner recommended this one stating that its just like drinking a tiramisu cake.... Well, I've heard that said before of other tiramisu lattes, but they never lived up to the description.... This one did. But the trick is you must use a spoon, ditch the straw.
The top of the drink is a thick cheese cream just like a tiramisu cake. Push through the cream, and scoop up some of the coffee, and you're going to be impressed at just how much this tastes like the real deal!
All in all, thus is a must try. Order the 3 items above and you'll be hooked. The service was great, and the owner seemed very interested in feedback on each item.
Will come back for sure. Glad to have found this cafe. My new #1 spot for latte. But next time I plan on trying the PB and J smoothie and gula...
Read moreJust had a very poor experience with a male staff member here. I ordered a falafel wrap which mentioned it was plant based on the description. It came with cheese so I sent it back as I am plant based. The description is misleading as apparently this only refers to the falafel and not the sandwich. The server was quite rude to me and threw his hands up in the air, sighing loudly and made me feel like I was seriously inconveniencing him. He went back and forth to the kitchen and and office about 3 times, each time sighing loudly and talking to me like im an idiot. It was very unprofessional and having worked in hospitality for years I would never have acted like this or spoken to anyone this way. The girl who was also at the till was lovely and apologised (I think for his behaviour). The food looks good and it's got a quiet atmosphere but this person needs some retraining on customer service and ultimately I would never eat somewhere where this is the way customers are treated. It's also just a sandwich, I would hate to see how he would behave if there was an actual problem.
Update: since posting this I can see that a review a few days was made complaining about the same person's rudeness. Its very sad to see nothing has clearly been done about this and clearly the owner does not care about their...
