Food by Fat Cat at Sunway Geo Avenue Subang Jaya, a new cafe venture by the cheerful team behind The Good Batch and Nara Kitchen & Co. Damansara Uptown PJ. Located at the corner of Jaya Grocer Sunway Geo Avenue, Food by Fat Cat poised to entice the tastebuds of food lovers with heart-warming dishes, covering from rice bowls, fusion ramens, soup, all-day-breakfast, homemade waffles, fresh coffee and tea.
Key ingredients are kept classic but the modern fusion, innovative touch that completes each dish is easily spotted – thinks Cinnamon-Dusted Churros Dipped with Matcha Pandan Sauce; Creamy Carbonara with Japanese Ramen, Edamame Beans; Japanese Fried Rice with Homemade Kimchi, Tempura Onsen Egg; Ninja Fries with Ebiko Sauce, etc.. Sounds interesting.
The entire space is thoughtfully designed, with easy access from both the hypermarket and from the mall outdoor. Entrance from Jaya Grocer is certainly catchy – a wall of brass shelving system adorned with green potted plants, framed pictures, and mini ornaments. This decoration reminds us about The Other Half Cafe in TTDI, but graceful in its own way.
Marble top brass leg high tables with bold black high chairs – our favourite section. Straight away “hide inside” once saw and enjoy our undisturbed moments, indulge into rice bowl, sipping coffee while watching passers by. Nothing beats a relaxing, lazy Sunday brunch like this.
Rice bowl, comfort food that is hard to go wrong with. Put together protein, vegetables, and egg over a bed of rice for us- we are happy kids then. Food by Fat Cat soft launch menu includes 6 types of rice bowl, namely Lat-Lat Gangnam Fried Rice RM12.90, Japanese Curry Tempura mushroom, Chicken Oyako Don, Ninja Bowl, Fattie Bom Bom RM17.90, and Sweet Pineapple Moo Moo Gyudon RM21.90.
No-rice patrons can opt for Fusion Ramen like Minced Chicken Ramen RM14.90, Chicken Yaki-Ramen RM15.90, Stir Fry Beef Ramen RM18.90, Creamy Carbonara Ramen RM18.90; or all-day-breakfast platters such as Matcha Buttermilk Waffles, Vanilla Ice Cream RM12.90; Buttermilk Waffle Stack with Grilled Turkey Ham, Melted Cheese, Organic fried Egg RM17.90; Buttermilk Waffle, Chicken Karaage, Kimchi Pineapple, Poached Eggs, Hollandaise Sauce RM21.90; French toast, toffee-nut Honey RM9.50.
Low-Fat Eggs & Soldiers is somehow worth-mentioned, as we like how Food by Fat Cat put in extra effort in serving buttered, toasted French brioche instead of just white toast, baguatte or normal grain bread. For just RM6.90 in price, we get double half -boiled organic eggs and three generous bread sticks.
Coffee is still something that the team prides at, hence a cup of flat white, latte, cappuccino, flavour-infused coffee or just black will not disappoint. They are currently using mix origin coffees, direct trade with farmers from 4 countries, roasted by Coffex...
Read moreAyo, I usually never leave reviews, but the food was terrible, and my day is ruined.
To be fair, most of the food I had was delivered, but here are some inexcusable mistakes:
Fatty Boom Boom. Aside from the disproportionate rice to chicken amounts, the rice was soggy and felt like a paste. What triggered me more was that they were so stingy with the ebiko mayo.
Teriyaki Chicken Donburi Along with the aforementioned problems with disproportionate rice portions and the rice being soggy, chicken was virtually tasteless. Pretty sure there was supposed to be teriyaki sauce on it, but as far as I know the chicken I had had no sauce. Plain. No sauce = teriyucky.
Fat Cow Gyudon Average tasting. The beef tasted bland. Same rice complaints. Not worth the price tbh.
In sum, disappointed but not surprised. Would not recommend, unless you’re having a meal for the first time in a week, or very hungry, and desperate. Actually no, just get...
Read moreI came because of the good reviews, in fact the environment is good, food and price is reasonable, just the service needs some improvement.
It's required to scan QR to place an order, me and my buddy use our own phone but place an order at the same time, we can see that the order is confirmed on the app.
Soon, they served my buddy with meals and drinks, as well as my drinks, so I assume my food will be coming soon. However they only take up the order after I waited a long time and ask them.
The female staff who entertained me blamed me that I didn't submit the order earlier. Well, not even a sorry but blaming. The male boss came after that and apologized, and told me I should inform them if waiting too long. At the end the boss offered me a brownie as compensation.
I know serving is always not easy, i will still come for the good food, and hope they have better...
