Cute place! We went for dinner and got veggie fried rice and pineapple. The fried rice was good, but really small portion. There was only 3 vege nuggets... And the fried rice was small too. Pineapple salad was just pineapple, cucumber and onion and some sauce. It was nice but again, super small! The staff was friendly. The food is just a bit more expensive compared to The size of the portions etc. But this atmosphere was super nice! I like the decorations.

I was getting sick of eating street food and spicy curries having been in Malaysia a while. I needed something 'normal'. I stopped here by chance walking back to my hotel and so glad I did. Hidden gem. Very pretty, urban, bright and airy. Clean. Quiet. Staff are super friendly, pleasant and nice. I went with the local breakfast butter and kaya white toast with 2 half boiled eggs. I had a hot black coffee to drink and a bottle of cold mineral water. It was probably one of the prettiest breakfasts I ever had. I couldn't fault it. Perfect and much needed. I asked for not too much butter and kaya, a light spread and the toast was just right. Nicely cut up. The two half boiled eggs were like runny and soft, almost soup like and perfect to dip the toast into. The coffee was perfect. The food was delicate, pretty and so good. Not a big portion but this was enough for me. They have quite a varied menu from sandwiches to noodle soups and more. Would highly recommend if you need a break from all the street food and to sit in a quiet place and have a nice meal.

Saw this spot while I was searching for a morning coffee. I'm not a fan of classic Malaysian coffee so was looking for something more similar to Aussie coffee. This is the best coffee I've had to date in my travels in Malaysia. Also had the custard waffle which was so good, and my partner had a watermelon juice.

Just coming in to try to the very special drinks here hahaha the durian white coffee? Curious what is the taste so I came in. They use durian flavour to make the coffee, should be not the real durian cream. The overall taste is not too bad, blended in quite well with the white coffee. The orange americano here is quite sour. This version is without milk, so it is suitable for those who like original coffee without milk. The fried Kway Teow here is with a lot of prawn taste, I can taste the strong prawn flavour even in the noodle itself.

Ordered the popcorn chicken poke and grilled chicken noodle soup, both tasted really good and the price is reasonable. The drinks are good as well, we ordered the gui hua oolong and matcha milk with boba, will come back next time.

We had a delicious breakfast here, their mango smoothie is refreshing and boba tea isn't too sweet. I recommend the vermicelli noodles with the perfect amount of spice for a morning dish.

We visited this café for breakfast and had a great experience. The freshly pressed orange juice, coffee, omelette and mushroom wraps were all very tasty. The fries were especially good. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the visit even more enjoyable. We’d happily come back again.
