Atlas Coffee Embassy




Atlas Coffee Embassy is relatively new among the cafes in JB as it only opened in Taman Mount Austin last December. The place was specially design by a Japanese designer with the bright and clean concept and it's really cozy despite its simplicity. Bright cafe is love~ Their menu features a good selection of salad, brunch items, sandwiches, main course, snack and dessert. I decided to get their Atlas Specialty Breakfast where you can create your own breakfast plate by choosing from the 12 items on the list. The price will be varied from the number of items (3, 5 or 7) that you choose and it comes with white toast and salad! I thought it's a pretty good steal! I went with 5 items option (RM18.90) with pork ham, omelette, chicken sausage, fresh tomato and sauteed mushroom. Love the omelette and pork ham the most! Shen Sim wanted to order their atlas specialty roasted chicken which sounds really enticing but it was unavailable that day so she ordered the chicken avocado sandwich (RM24.90) which was really yummy too!! Being a fan of waffles, i couldn't resist to order their waffles after seeing so many pictures of it on instragram..haha! We ordered a chocolate banana waffles (RM18.90) to share. The waffles were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside which is just what i want my waffles to be..lol!

Brought along my new fisheye lens and decided to do a vlog...please pardon my shaky hand and my poor editing skill! :p Overall Atlas Coffee Embassy stands out as one of the better cafe in town and I just found out that the owner is the 2012 Malaysian Barista Champion and TimeOut KL Food Personality who owned the Top Brew Coffee Bar in Kuala Lumpur last time. You can read more about him here! I would definitely come back to this lovely space soon! :)

D' Good Cafe & Sunday Folks


Wanted to visit D' Good Cafe for the longest time because of their whimsical and adorable interior but somehow the food menu doesn't look quite appealing to me, lol! Anyway, we decided to have our dinner there because we have already decided Sunday folks for our dessert, so D' Good Cafe seems like a good choice because it's just nearby :p D' Good Cafe is located at Holland Village and split into 3 levels which are The Lawn, The Attic and The Balcony. It's a self serve cafe so we have to go to the counter and place our order. Wanted to order a pizza and pasta to share but the service crew told us that the pizza will take more than half an hour to come...what! So we ordered a fresh prawn aglio olio and the chicken tikka masala that the service crew recommended. There's a top up option where you can choose to add on soup, coffee or dessert for just $3 and i thought it's pretty worth it. Frankly speaking, I have heard so much raving reviews about this aglio olio but I really don't think it's that awesome? Perhaps it's just that day but me and my friend both felt that the aglio olio is not flavorful enough, quite blend actually. On the other hand, the chicken tikka masala was a pleasant surprise! The chicken chunks were so tender and juicy and the masala sauce was really nice too! I thoroughly enjoyed the dish and the only bad thing is the rice that comes with it was a little bit too hard.

Headed to Sunday Folks for dessert and we ordered earl grey lavender and pistachio soft serve, ok basically it's me who decided hahahaha!! :p Shering just bought a new lens so we were quite excited about it and she taught me couple of things that I can do with my lumix gf cam..hehe! We both keep taking photo of the waffle with different angles and i think the people around us must think we were crazy lol! Had a really good talk with her about our life, cameras, some gossips and of course ranting about our job..lol! I learned so much about the camera and some functions that I never knew existed *facepalm* It's really nice to find someone who has the same interest and thinking..you know like 知音 hehe! Cheers to more cafe hopping, dinner outing and trippp! :D
