Review: WIP on the Park
April 28th, 2025
Einstein Cafe, tucked on the first floor of a shop-house on Jalan Sultan in Chinatown. The cafe has no signboard, so look for Sinn Optical & the little red door beside that store.
Thirty Seconds, a cosy Bandar Sri Damansara residential neighbourhood cafe. Just the place for residents from nearby to stroll in and enjoy a good meal.
The Lake Fields neighbourhood might seem a bit off the beaten track, but it's barely a 10-minute drive from Bukit Jalil, making Bites Cafe convenient enough to visit, especially in the evening & on weekends, when parking should be easier in this enclave that's crowded with commercial outlets.
From the Beanbag to the Box: Chef Ryan, a familiar face from The Red Beanbag, is spearheading his own place with Taiping-born chef June to open Metal Box.

Checking out a cool new concept cafe that opened in PJ this month: KARE Cafe at 1 Utama, an F&B spin-off from the Munich-origin furniture brand.
Fans of hidden cafes are poised to flock to The Front Door, tucked inside a century-old three-storey building that was occupied by retail traders.
Flower power: Delectable by Su, one of KL's top makers of designer cakes, shows her new creation - Delectable Buttercream Floral Cakes.
A purple reign has dawned in Oasis Ara Damansara. Purple Pasta is particularly popular among office workers for lunch due to its no-frills RM5 pastas.
Nosh Up, probably the prettiest cafe in Jaya Shopping Centre, has a menu infused with intriguing twists.
The Cafe More at The Fare, another sunshine-blessed outpost in the Mont Kiara neighbourhood, with a wide menu and an extensive selection of beverages.
Wild Coffee & Tea supplies much more than coffee & tea; the selection sweeps through a wide swath of Asia.
This week's newest cafe attraction: Ahmad & Co, a curiosity-provoking establishment that traffics in both caffeine & cigars on one of Kota Damansara's roads less travelled.
Coffee hits home: Blaq could become a home brewer's best friend, offering a unique subscription service that ships
