#106 Brew and Bread @ One City Mall


I really like the fact that so many dissimilar cafes have mushroomed themselves into Subang area, and still continuing. We Subang-ians don't have to travel to another state just to get our cravings fixed, have a cup of good coffee and what not. It really is convenient and time-saving too!

Brew and Bread has recently mushroomed itself into the new shopping mall in Subang Jaya - the One City mall.


It was very late when we got there - approximately 9:30pm? So there weren't many choices but we still get to try one of their cakes and some pastries. Got ourself a blueberry cheesecake, an apple strudel and.. sorry I don't remember what was the other one but it's filled with chocolate.

Look at them chocolate goodness oozing out!


The blueberry cheesecake? Moist and really yummy crust at the bottom (my friends and I really loved it). Have I ever mentioned that I am a fan of cheese!? So I eat all kinds of cheesecake as long as it isn't dry and it leaves a satisfying aftertaste.



With two cups of hot chocolate which was good, too.


And here's an additional, not necessary, but instagram-worthy picture of myself taken by Adeline. HAHA!




B&B's hot chocolate is pretty good to me and was I satisfied! :D Since I am restricted from consuming coffee, I've always made hot chocolate and matcha green tea latte my kind of drink in a cafe. And because of how I am allergic to coffee, I really do look forward to an authentic and flavourful cup of hot choco / green tea latte. A cafe should not only focus on their coffee but in every possible aspect, no? I've tried places which serve great coffee, but really bad hot chocolate and it makes me really frustrated knowing that they focus so much on making a good cuppa that they've neglected the rest of the drinks on the menu.

Thus, I'd give an overall verdict to B&B a 7 upon 10.

#104 The Library Coffee Bar @ Sunway Pyramid


My friends and I really do enjoy dining in new cafes / restaurants and enjoy the new and unique environment that each individual dining place could possibly provide. So, we were a little hyped up to try The Library Coffee Bar which was opened in Sunway Pyramid not too long ago and it has opened another branch in SS15 as well.


Cappuccino.

I'm still upset over the fact that i'm allergic to coffee, but I still drink it once in a while though I would get side-effects.









I ordered a simple English breakfast set which cost me roughly about RM10 if i'm not mistaken. I remembered it to be really cheap and was hoping that it would taste great, but sad to say, I would pay a little more for something heartier. The scrambled eggs, salad and waffle were a let-down.


My friend had mushroom carbonara and she said it was really really bland and I have to agree with her because it really is tasteless. I wish they could add a little more seasoning to the sauce and perhaps they could add in some salt whilst boiling the pasta. It does make a difference and it would taste a lot better.



Overall, it was okay for the price was priced reasonably but I would be really happy to pay another visit with slightly more improvements on their dishes. The coffee though, was good, so thumbs up to that! 'till then.

#92 Frisky Goat Bakery Cafe @ TTDI


I've read reviews and heard my friends saying that you always need to wait to be seated in Frisky Goat. Perhaps I was lucky that day I didn't need to wait but to be seated the moment I stepped into the restaurant half-packed with frisky patrons. A waitress immediately ushered us to a table for two at the corner of the restaurant.


The concept and the interior themselves have already wowed me. Were you, too?




My bestie and I made our way to Frisky Goat @ TTDI 'cause I've came across their menu online and found out that they serve eggs benedict with waffles which have favourably lured me to this place for brunch.


Two cups of good cappuccino with pretty good coffee art too @ RM9 each.

"The Works" breakfast @ RM24.

And I was wondering, how is it a breakfast platter when there isn't an egg plated with these goodness? How does this even look like a complete breakfast set? Well, truth to be told, the fried egg is placed underneath all of those. I guess they were trying to make it seem like a "surprise" by placing it underneath. However, I personally prefer it to be seen on the plate.

Monsieur Ben Waffles @ RM17.


This is really good. Great combination - I like how the waffles are so light and fluffy, it goes so well with the poached eggs, spinach and a slice of beef bacon. However, the eggs were quite a let down 'cause the egg yolk isn't runny enough. In fact, it was almost like a hard boiled egg.




& salted caramel chocolate cake for dessert.


Giving this place an honest verdict of 6.5/10. Love the food, coffee, friendly service team and the dimly-lit cozy interior that makes you wanna linger a little longer with your companions. This is a place that I wouldn't mind re-visiting albeit there are some things that is needed to be improved.

#91 Cosans Coffee @ SS15

Back in the day when I haven't gotten my hair dyed.

Here is a longggg overdue post about Cosans Coffee. I have completely forgotten 'bout it until I made a quick stroll down my blog's posts and then came to realize that I have missed this out. For your record, this was supposed to be last year's post lol.

Cosans Coffee, a F&B company mushroomed themself into the burger-town a.k.a SS15, and have lured many patrons for it's cozy - alluring interior, great coffee and friendly service team. 



I visited this place after it was opened for only a week so there were limited choices of food and drinks.




Don't you think its a brilliant idea to be sitting here, with a book in your hand or with a bunch of good companions, just sipping a cup of your favourite beverage? Mmm.


Here is a cup of hot chocolate on the left, and a cup of coffee ( I don't remember what was it. Its either cappuccino / latte ) on the right. Their hot chocolate tastes so good, I swear! Funny how I would rather drop by for their cup of hot chocolate instead of coffee. It's rich and good, so perfect to my liking ;)

#87 Cotton candy coffee @ Oh Scooter Cafe, SS21


Let's just say I apologize for the lack of updates not because I'm a sluggish blogger, but because I was down with dengue fever. Fret not! I'm recovering. It sucks to fall sick on your final exam weeks and you have no idea how hard it is to study when you're already half dead. Dengue sucks the life out of you, no damn joke.

I'm here to do a short update because I think I need to. I've abandoned my blog for far too long so, yup. This is going to be a short one because it was late at night when I went to have some coffee and cakes with my girls at Oh Scooter Cafe, and I didn't like how the rest of the photos turned out and hence, the lack of photos. I would pay Oh Scooter Cafe another visit some day soon and make a proper review 'bout it.

Whereas for now, I would like to comment a thing or two on their signature cotton candy coffee.


Oh Scooter Cafe serves their signature coffee in an unique way whereby you place the cotton candy on top of your cup that was already filled with milk, pour the espresso into the cup, and enjoy the moment! You'll understand if you go try it out yourself ;) haha.


But to be honest, it tastes like an ordinary cup of coffee that you would get else where. Nothing promising, nothing special in taste wise. But in presentation wise, it really is something ;)

#78 Beyond Veggie by Secret Recipe @ Sunway Pyramid




I had finally graduated from Pre-U and starting a whole new chapter of life in Degree. I honestly can't wait!

I had spent three weeks of my semester break productively. Worked at Popular book-fair for 13 days continuously and spent the rest of my holiday helping my mom out, spending time with my babylove and headed back to my grandpop's crib during the weekend for ching ming.

Now that being said, I'd like to make a short update on Beyond Veggie by Secret Recipe @ Sunway Pyramid. Just a day before I started working, I drove Daph out for tea and we settled in for a cuppa and cakes.


Two flat white coffee, azuki green tea cake and hazel crunch chocolate cake.

Beyond Veggie is currently offering a tea-break promotion. A set of a slice of cake complimentary with a cuppa or tea at only RM7.50 before tax. I'd say that their cakes are up to my expectations. Both flavourful and moist. This promotion could attract more customers especially students who are studying in Sunway College. 'Cause I personally would like to have a cup of hot chocolate or coffee and a slice of delicious cake, simply to de-stress from all the assignments, projects, examinations and so forth.

K I gotta go so allow me to end this post with two pictures of Daph and I.

#74 Tous les Jours @ Telawi 3


It was a sunny Thursday afternoon and I was in class, brain-storming 'bout Accounting then all of a sudden, I craved for a cup of good coffee. Joanne came over to pick me up from my college right after my class ended and I led her to Bangsar for lunch. We couldn't make up our mind on what to eat so I brought her to Tous les Jours, a South-Korean bakery and cafe franchise owned by CJ Foodville, which I've always wanted to pay a visit.

So we settled down and made our orders.

Red velvet cake.

Sorry I couldn't remember what was this called but it's pretty much like Hazelnut danish.

Apple danish and an ordinary hot dog bun.


Top: Mocha (RM9), Bottom: Cappuccino (RM8)

I personally think that it's hard to find good red velvet cakes around. If you know what I mean. Some places serve red velvet cakes that don't even taste like one. However, Tous les Jours' red velvet tasted amazing. It has the right balance of flavour, sweetness and moist which is almost perfect to my liking. Well, I'm the kind of person whom doesn't like to eat anything too sweet or salty ;)

Oh and if you guys happen to drop by TLJ, please try that hazelnut danish. Haha. It's gooooood!
