First thing to know about DR.Inc: It's meant to be pronounced 'Drink,' not 'Dr. Inc.' But what's even more certain about this hidden coffee bar is that it's one of our favourite new places in Bangsar this year, a soulful little refuge where people can come for a slice of peace & leave hopefully with their spirits refreshed.
