The wanton mee surprisingly vy nice. Roti bakar vy normal only.Kopi was vy thick and nice.Overall the food was very nice...will go again.
Offer wide varieties from western breakfast to mix of Asian (Japanese, chinese) and best of all certain dishes that u can only get from hawkers. Order taken fast and all dishes serve quick, fresh and delicious at very reasonable price. Operating hours has been extended, now you can enjoy your meal here from as early as 7:30am to 9pm.
I had the pleasure of dining at this cozy cafe, and I must say, everything exceeded my expectations. The food was nothing short of delightful, especially the char hor fun. It was the best I've had! The atmosphere is cozy with plug points available, making it a great spot for both relaxing and working. The customer service was friendly and efficient, adding to the overall positive experience. Highly recommend for anyone craving tasty food, great coffee, and a chill vibe.
Eclectic choices of food I would say. A few hawker food mixed with western breakfast ideas and some Japanese options. Couple of dim sum option with nasi lemak bungkus. If the weather is hot, I prefer to sit inside where air con makes the experience better. Decor and design is themed after a western cafe style. The prices of the food here is a little upscale and reflects the environment you eat at. I will give the bad first then the good. I was quite disappointed with the nasi lemak. NL is a quintessential Malaysian breakfast. It must adhere to certain level of standards. First the daun pisang covers only the side and top but not the bottom of the NL pyramid. So as you peel it off you are left with 2 non functioning pieces of daun pisang. Secondly, the sambal only had one flavour. Excessive spice. No saltiness or umami to tone it down. Thirdly, the amount of ikan bills and egg in proportion to the rice was embarrassingly kiam siap. Also, no kacang strangely. In short, falls far from my NL expectations. Fortunately, the fried bihun and dry hokkien char salvaged my breakfast experience. Both arrived hot and were both well flavored, cooked and presented. Drinks were thick and kaw. For a morning drink, definitely a good delicious drink. If they are able to bring their A game to the NL, I think it's a nice comfortable air con joint for breakfast.
The shop is more attractive in terms of its contemporary design and a more Malaysianised name. Still, the price is generally reasonable but does not par to the portion itself. Overall, it's still acceptable in terms of the food quality and services.
The maggie goreng very nice! Best. Air kosong also ikat tepi, this is really cute!
