With all the cafes coming up in Ara Damansara, I'd say this is the best of them all... heck, I'd even say this is one of my favs in all of Klang Valley.
The main attraction for this cafe in my opinion is definitely the atmosphere. The moment I stepped in, I got goosebumps. I felt like I was instantly transported to one of those back alley cafes I visited in Tokyo. Though not particularly based off a Japanese theme or cafe, the vibe certainly mimics-if not-surpass them.
I had the standard Iced latte while my friends had a Japanese drip coffee and one of the sodas(I can't rmb the name of it). The Latte was good, but not outstanding.... had a nice smokey flavour but just a tinge too much milk for my liking. My friend said the soda was alittle too sweet but still enjoyable while the drip coffee was no doubt the best. It's flavours would instantly hug your tongue with a sour yet flowery flavour and soon settle with the smokey bitterness of the coffee bean. definitely would recommend getting the drip coffee.
The best of all were the puddings. If you come here, it is a must. its got a fine balance of sweet and sour from the sauce?(im not sure what it is). The pudding was too jelly-like but had a beautiful custard texture and taste. I would highly recommend pairing the pudding with a cup of coffe - a great combination with both sophisticated sweet and bitter flavours complimenting each other.
Lastly, the price - Its not cheap but 100% justifiable. My latte was RM13 and I would much rather come and drink a coffee here rather than going to underscore down the road as the atmosphere and service just downright dominates over underscore. the pudding was RM14 - quite hard to swallow if you dont take much desserts (like me), but it's a definite must have. overall, I wouldnt complain at all and would come again.
The only thing is, I wish I had a girlfriend to bring with me - this place would be the perfect...

🍮 I tried their sandwich cheesecake, chocolate mousse, and burnt cheesecake ~ all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. You can really taste the difference! Special shoutout to the burnt cheesecake 🙌🏻 hands down the best I’ve ever had (and yes, I’ve had a lot of cheesecake).
☕️ Their signature Dirty Latte is a must-try perfectly balanced between coffee and milk, bravoooooo! And the limeade was super refreshing too, so if ure not a coffee lover, do try this!
💁♂️ Service was warm and attentive. There were a couple of minor mix-ups with the order (possibly due to new staff), but the floor manager (or maybe the owner?) stepped in quickly and handled it well.
Definitely one of my favourite cafés in Ara Damansara so far, plus, they have an adorable cat 🐈 Just a heads-up: they’re not open every day, so...
Read morePrice : On the high side.
Food: The desserts here are genuinely good. Each bite felt indulgent without being over the top. You can tell they put care into crafting them. The coffee? Rich, smooth, and clearly high-quality. It complemented the sweets perfectly.
Service: Absolutely amazing. The staff was attentive, friendly, and genuinely seemed to enjoy being there. It created a really welcoming vibe, and they were quick to offer recommendations or check in without hovering.
Atmosphere: The space has a really unique charm—stylish without trying too hard. It’s super comfortable and a great spot to just chill for a while. I especially loved the music selection; it added a lot of character. That said, there were moments when the volume crept up just a bit too much for easy conversation. Not a dealbreaker, but a slightly lower volume would’ve made the experience...
