It took me two visits and one takeaway meal from Yi Feng Restaurant in OUG before I can write what I opine about this establishment. A Chinese version (read: non-halal) of a Malaysian kopitiam so expect hawker favourites like wantan noodle with char siew and siew yuk, and pastries with…

BLONDE at Republik in Damansara Heights is the latest addition to the Serai Group, said to serve “fine comfort food” with hints of Asian flavours. It has been quite the rage on social media, to a point Jien insisted we gave it a shot. I was admittedly hesitant. Especially after…

My second attempt to dine at Sunbather Coffee at The Sphere in Bangsar South required effort. We had a good experience at the café first time around and wanted to return to check out more of what they have to offer. Alas, there was an issue with electricity and they…

I remember my first experience with Nespresso – during one of my stay in a five-star hotel and the Nespresso machine was available to use when I needed coffee. It was nifty and portable, and best of all, I got pretty decent coffee within a touch of the button. The…

The café scene in JB is more developed that I expected it to be with a lot of the customer base coming from our neighbouring country. When Jien and I were in the city a couple of months back, we checked out JWC (short for Just Want Coffee), The Factory…
