Salt N Koffie Gallery at Jaya One: Restaurant Review

Checking out the new concept cafe that opened in PJ this month: Salt ‘n Koffie Gallery at Jaya One.

Cheerful Space

Salt ‘n Koffie, a colourfully cheerful space whose friendly creators clearly love potted plants & fascinating furniture.

The ‘salt’ in this cafe’s name could be a reference to ‘salt water’ – Salt ‘n Koffie is reputedly run by diving enthusiasts who sell a plethora of paraphernalia here linked to their primary passion.

The Accidental Affogato

‘Koffie’ seems self-explanatory, but Salt ‘n Koffie serves something special that’ll likely be a major magnet for dessert aficionados: ‘The Accidental Affogato’ (RM12), with a scoop of Sangkaya’s increasingly renowned coconut ice cream partially submerged in a shot of single-origin espresso.

Sweet-Salty Beverage

The other signature coffee beverage is called ‘The Salty Koffie’ (RM13), with iced coffee, Gula Melaka & some salt combining to taste like something out of a cendol bowl. Deliciously well-balanced in its sweet-salty dimensions, ideal for a hot afternoon.

Luscious Desserts

Desserts in jars are another highlight here; we like this one with yoghurt, mango & muesli mix – it tastes fresher than expected, with luscious slices of fruit partnered with smooth, creamy yoghurt.
