Three Years Old Cafe — Restaurant in Kuala Lumpur

yes its pretty and very aesthetic. first, you have to write down your name and number, wait for 45min and they will call you, dont have to stand around outside the cafe. you can take all the pictures you want while waiting. parking is limited and mostly illegal and the police station is just right in front, so yea, figure it out.

level 1 is brighter and its got a big round window behind you. the downside is that its near the door, so a lot of people will keep coming in and out, and group around your table. the 1st level seating facing the cake counter have really2 close tables proximity, i dont feel ok with this. i recommend level 2, limited light, but better spacing. i was only here for cute photos, pretty cakes and coffee, so i didnt really put any expectations on their cooked foods. but it was as expected, expensive and subpar. or maybe i chose the wrong thing. if you get distracted alot, and people belanja you, then you can overlook all these small petty things.

Baked eggs with chicken sausages & sourdough (RM25) [3/5] - wow this one was really shocking when it came to the table. 1 pc of sourdough, cut in half, so it looked like 2 pcs. the baked eggs is kinda like shakshuka, two small quail egg yolks (i think), normal sliced frozen sausages, pasta tomato bolognaise sauce, some cheese. obviously the sourdough wont be enough la, still got alot of the egg dip leftover. if this costs RM16, then i can overlook this. but its so so normal tasting and small compared to all the cheaper and bigger portioned shakshuka ive had elsewhere.

tiramisu latte [4/5] - its iced latte, with frappe and coffee powder on top. just order the normal iced latte, the frappe on top is really unnecessary calories.

blueberry cake [3/5] - the yellow top is sour, the purple cream tastes exactly like any old bakery in kl, the layers in between are more sour things. the cake part is dry, maybe because its not from the fridge, so its the same category as butter cake?? its really just a pretty cake, thats all.

staff is really friendly, efficient and kind. but this standard is on par with any normal cafes in cheras, just more pricier. how is it that 3 out of 3 things that i ordered and im not that impressed with any of it, why am i so unlucky...

This has got to be one of the best new cafes in town. The Instagram feed was constantly filled with people posting on this cafe which prompted our visit recently (before FMCO). Located directly behind the popular VCR, this building is the first that you'll see as you turn from Jalan Galloway into Sin Chew Kee via the small road next to VCR.

It was white in colour with settings that will provide fellow social media influencers or average bloke like me opportunity for Instagram worthy picture. At my point of visit, they were full house but we managed to get a table outside after a while. Luckily it wasn't that hot and stuffy yet.

We purposely skipped our first meal of the day in order to enjoy the food here. By the way, parking is a real problem here.

◾Shroooms! RM16 - sourdough with onion jam spread, topped with mushrooms sauteed in umami butter. Didn't know that I'd actually like this vegetarian option. ◾Extra poached eggs (RM5) and chicken sausage (RM5) - we figured that both of us couldn't possibly finish two dishes so we ordered a little extra sides instead. ◾Flat white & latte RM11 each - don't you just love it when the coffee quality is good?

Operated by a young and enthusiastic team, we were made welcomed from the time we arrived until we left the premise. Provided that they survived the pandemic onslaught, I am sure that they will become a mainstay in this area for...

I would recommend their sourdough menu items. I did enjoy their sourdough ham. But their cakes are lackluster. Genmaicha pie is good stuff though.

However, I did not enjoy the experience there. Once we sat down and placed our orders, as usual, we wait for our food. After 30+ minutes, we haven't receive our food so we asked the waitress, who then told us she will check on the orders. (at this point, a few tables after us already gotten their food).

15minutes later, still no sign of our food, and I requested the waitress to check, yet again. a few minutes later, one of our 3 orders finally arrived. Another 15 minutes after that, our remaining 2 items were still not served. at this point, I went to the counter myself to ask again, and was told to wait, again.

waited for another 5-10 minutes, and finally, the second order came. BUT it was the wrong order so I complained directly to the waitress, who said "sorry for the delay, I wish I can make it up to you, I just came back from my break".

Is this how you run a business? employees take a break at peak lunch hour? to be fair, I don't mind if anyone takes a break at any time, but does that mean no one was attending to my orders? and excuse me but I waited for an hour+ for my food. were the employees having a break for 1 hour+?

decent food but will not repeat anymore.

very bad...
