Review: WIP on the Park
April 28th, 2025
Pita Power! Pita sandwiches have finally hit KL, courtesy of this cool cafe where recipes are crafted with care and creativity by people with a clear passion.
Pouches bulging to bursting with the likes of smoked salmon, horseradish mayo, onions, capers and crisp leaves (RM17.50) are the highlight here.
Pikapita’s pocket bread is baked fresh on site, assuredly staying soft and fluffy while stuffed with fish fillets, chopped cucumber and egg tartar sauce (RM10.50).
Pitas come in four varieties, original, beetroot, chili and curry, any of which can be partnered with fillings like Indian keema-style chicken curry and fried eggplant (RM10.90).
The bulk of Pikapita’s sandwiches are Japanese-influenced, from beef hamburg with grilled zucchini, mushrooms and onion-soy dressing (RM16.50) …
… to deep-fried shrimp with pirikara mayo (RM11.50) …
… to chicken karaage (RM12.50), each prepared to taste delicious and be nutritionally balanced.
Portions are perfect for lunch; even the vegetarian’s ATM special (avocado, tomatoes and mushrooms with French vinaigrette) is satisfyingly substantial.
Folks with space for desserts can savor simple stuff like a pleasant-enough tiramisu.
Pita sandwiches are currently served 11am-5pm, Mon-Fri, and through 3pm Saturdays. Between 8am and 10am weekdays, the breakfast menu offers French toast, yogurt, omelets and ratatouille with half-boiled eggs.
