Making sandwiches might seem like a simple task, but the most satisfying ones are prepared with lots of heart & skilfulness; this modest bakery cafe – run by buddies Hong & Eric – does an admirable job in bringing customers bread they can believe in.

Sandwiches And Pastries At Very Fair Prices

Hong is only 23, but he knows his way around an oven, having spent months working & learning at Sentul’s Tommy Le Baker. With Tommy’s blessings, Hong & Eric recently opened their own place at the D’Alamanda condo in Cheras, offering carefully crafted sandwiches & pastries at very fair prices in a warm venue where customers will feel instantly welcomed like old friends.

Fresh Flavours

Possible choices here include baguettes filled with chicken meat, sourdough slices topped with rib-eye steak & white bread stuffed with egg & tomatoes, each served nice & warm, with unmistakably fresh flavours. Our favourite is the crusty baguette (RM8.50 for the portion below), which provides a pleasant bite & an easy chew.

Lovely Beginning To The Day

Bite down on bran toast, accompanied by a choice of butter, jam or better still, Simplicity’s kaya, thick – with a reassuringly home-made sort of texture – & subtle-flavoured. RM4.50; a breakfast like this would make for a lovely beginning to the day.

The ideal day to visit Simplicity? Friday – that’s when you’ll find Kai of coffee subscription specialists Blaq Coffee – & perhaps his wife Margaret too – spending the day here serving pour-over coffee to pair with your sandwiches.

It’s a convenient way to sample the beans – from local roasters like Sprezzatura & Seraph Awaken – that Blaq mails out to subscribers every month. Lively, harmoniously vibrant notes in these glasses of coffee – & speaking of harmonious notes, Kai often brings his guitar to Simplicity, so ask him to strum you a song after he’s done with the brewing.
