3 Two Square PJ food butter cake Cake Chicken Shephard's Pie Coffee Dessert Dirty Latte New 2026 : February New cafe PJ 2026 February Seksyen 19 Petaling Jaya food Seksyen 19 Pj cafe

Twitch Cafe at Seksyen 19, Petaling Jaya – Dessert, coffee and a cosy spot (Pork free)

On a cold, rainy evening, I found myself with a craving for something sweet. As a result, I was on the lookout for a cozy, under-the-radar café that would offer dessert, drinks, and a place to wait out the chilly wet weather. While exiting 3 Two Square, I noticed this café. Just over a week old, Twitch occupies a small and inviting spot on the Ground floor of this business center.

Officially opened just over a week ago, this café is a venture between two longtime friends, both certified pharmacists, who share a passion for travel and coffee, among many other interests.

Menu

Daddy’s Skull, RM 16 + Butter Cake, RM 10 + Chicken Shephard’s Pie, RM 16
Butter Cake
Daddy’s Skull
Chicken Shephard’s Pie

The majority of the food served is homemade, specifically prepared by the owners’ respective siblings. The butter cake was light and not overly dense, which was crucial in preventing an overly full stomach. Many butter cakes tend to be thick and dense, resulting in a full stomach by the time one reaches the last bite. In this case, it was light and the delightful flavor of good quality butter was apparent in every bite. Furthermore, its moderate sweetness was a particular pleasure.

Daddy’s Skull is their signature offering. It is fundamentally a dirty latte, characterized by a serving of hot espresso poured over cold milk. Notably, this beverage is served in a uniquely shaped, cold glass. As someone who does not frequently consume coffee, I find it challenging to articulate the experience; however, unlike the harsh bitterness typically associated with espresso, the addition of milk mitigates this intensity, resulting in a drink that resembles a lukewarm latte.

The pie too was homemade and it exhibited a tasty flavor profile. The crispy crust was limited to the top, resulting in a substantial quantity of filling that was not fully encased. Regarding the filling, the ratio of minced chicken to potato was equal, ensuring that each bite contained both the main ingredients. Well seasoned, the pie delivered a satisfying taste, compelling me to finish the entire portion in a single sitting.

For now, Twitch Cafe remains undiscovered, making it the perfect spot for those seeking a quiet atmosphere with an under-the-radar vibe. Its small size and welcoming owners enhance its charm. The cafe offers a small selection of drinks and desserts, alongside nasi lemak for breakfast and chicken pie served throughout the day. With plug points conveniently located around the space, it’s an ideal spot to tackle your work in peace.

Address: Unit No. A-05-LG2 3, Two Square, 2, Jalan 19/1, Seksyen 19, 46300 Petaling Jaya, Selangor

Cake Fruit Rojak Muslim operated Nasi Lemak New 2026 : February Onde-onde Cake Open Daily TTDI TTDI food

Grai Warung at Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, KL – A new opening (Muslim operated)

The last few days were pleasantly quiet thanks to the Chinese New Year holidays, with half of KL seemingly emptied. The roads were clear, and driving around was a breeze. Our journey took us to TTDI, where we discovered Grai, which had just opened a week ago. Here, you can indulge in a selection of local favorites, including Nasi Lemak, Nasi Goreng, Nasi Kerabu, and more.

As you step into the restaurant, a welcoming waiter greets you with a warm smile. Right at the entrance, you’ll pass by the Grilling station (for Ikan Bakar and Satay), which is poised to start serving its delectable offerings in a week or two. The enticing aroma and smoky visuals will undoubtedly draw in passersby, encouraging them to experience what this establishment has to offer. Inside, Grai boasts a comfortable and well-ventilated atmosphere, adorned with decor that evokes a ‘warung’ feel, especially with the replica wooden windows and panels adding to its charm.

Menu

Kek Ondeh-ondeh, RM 9.50

If you’re after a cake with a Malaysian twist, the Ondeh-ondeh cake is a good choice. Unlike conventional cakes that can fill you up quickly, this one feels delightfully light thanks to its sponge cake base. Paired with a coconut flake cream and a brown layer of sweetness from Gula Melaka, this dessert was enjoyable.

Nasi Lemak Biasa, RM 5.50

As we we still somewhat full from brunch earlier, we chose to forgo the fried chicken option and selected the Nasi Lemak Biasa instead. It was served on a piece of paper reminiscent of a Grai newsletter, adding a unique flair. The sambal was just right, striking a perfect balance with its subtle sweetness and thick texture; it wasn’t overly spicy but was bursting with flavor. Paired with the warm, aromatic rice, it was nothing short of delicious. I am definitely a fan of this nasi lemak sambal.

Fruit Rojak

The Fruit Rojak was enjoyable, though the rojak gravy leaned a bit too salty for my taste. It had good flavor, but the saltiness dominated each bite. The dish featured a mix of cucumber, pineapple, sengkuang, mango, crackers, and more.

Overall, I had a positive experience at this establishment and I am anticipating the opportunity to try their satay and ikan bakar in the coming weeks.

Address: Jalan Tun Mohd Fuad 3, Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, Kuala Lumpur.

(*** Same row as Cafe Common and 2nd Street TTDI Bundle Shop)

Opening hours: 12pm to 1am (Ramadan Special) (From 19th February to 20th March 2026). Open for Lunch, Buka Puasa and late night Moreh)

Cacio E Pepe Garlic Chili Anchovy Butter New 2026 : February Pasta Pork Free Viral Wisma Cosway food

Francobolli Pasta at Wisma Cosway, KL – The new viral pasta spot, a chaotic mess (No pork)

Officially opened just over a week ago, Francobolli Pasta is already making waves on social media platforms. I’ve completely lost count of the countless videos showcasing this Italian restaurant, with enthusiastic praise for the fresh pasta they serve. Located on Level 1 of Wisma Cosway in Bukit Bintang, this establishment has confidently stepped into the spotlight as a secondary venture, building on their successful primary business of supplying pasta to various restaurants and cafes in the area.

Long waiting line at Francobolli

If one intends to dine at Francobolli, it is advisable to be prepared for an long waiting period. I made two visits to the establishment before I was able to savor their cuisine. On my first visit, I arrived at 12:30 PM and was required to wait for 40 minutes, only to be informed that they had sold out of all their pasta dishes – which is literally the only items they serve in addition to Tiramisu. On my second visit, I arrived earlier, at 12:00 PM, and waited until 1:00 PM to be seated. The food was served 25 minutes later, yet, regrettably, their Tiramisu was sold out.

Small space, large crowd

The restaurant features a small layout, resulting in a crowded atmosphere during peak hours, which can occasionally feel stuffy. Customers often find themselves in close proximity to one another—this interaction is an integral aspect of the dining experience. In the absence of the availability of an individual table, guests are seated at the long high table positioned against the wall, sharing a spot with other customers.

Menu

*** FYI : If you visit 1pm and beyond, be prepared for them to run out of everything on their Menu, which essetially are three options of pasta only. Their Tiramisu is sold out even before that 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

At this point, Francobolli has been in operation for a week, and one would expect that they would have familiarized themselves with the crowd by now; however, their operations remain as chaotic as during my first visit, with items frequently selling out hours before closing time.

Customers place their orders through a uniquely printed QR code that is distributed for individual use. In instances where the volume of orders are overwhelming—particularly given that only one chef is cooking—incoming customers can expect to experience delays until the order flow subsides. Haiyaaaaaaaa 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️.

Cacio E Pepe Pecorino Evoo, RM 28

This dish was a let down. After an hour-long wait, the plate of pasta failed to meet expectations. True to the essence of Cacio e Pepe, one can immediately taste the pairing of cheese and pepper; however, beyond this familiar taste, the dish lacks any elements that would engage my interest. While it does require skill to harmonize the strong, distinct flavors of cheese and pepper without one overpowering the other – credits to the chef, yet I will not be reordering this dish. Furthermore, the choice of rigatoni was not to my liking, as I would have preferred spaghetti or linguine instead.

Garlic Chili Anchovy Butter, RM 26

This pasta dish was heaps better than the Cacio E Pepe. The freshly cooked linguine provided an ideal al dente texture that complemented the sauce well. Each strand was generously coated with a smooth, buttery oil that glistened invitingly, while the rich and aromatic flavor of garlic was evident in every bite, enhancing the overall experience. A simple dish it was and certainly better than the other dish we tried.

But was it worth standing in line for an hour for? No.

Would I revisit Francobolli? No.

Address: Lot 1.25, Level 1, Wisma Cosway, Jalan Raja Chulan, Kuala Lumpur.
Opening hours: Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 11am to 3pm.

Chicken Satay Kambing satay Muslim operated Mutton Satay Open Daily Prima Damansara food Satay Satay shop in Petaling Jaya Soto Soto Ayam

Minah Satay at Prima Damansara, Petaling Jaya (Muslim Operated)

We found ourselves longing for some satays, excited to explore a new spot we hadn’t tried before in Petaling Jaya. As we scoured the internet for options, we stumbled upon Minah Satay. Although this brand was new to us, it seemed to have won the hearts of its customers, boasting a good average score of 4.8/5 from over 65 reviews. Intrigued and eager to satisfy our cravings, we set off to Prima Damansara with hopeful anticipation.

From the insights gathered from customer reviews, it appears that Minah Satay was originally operating from a stall before transitioning into a shoplot. Currently located at a corner lot within a row of shops in Prima Damansara, Minah Satay now provides a well-organized seating arrangement for its customers, characterized by a simple and clean setup.

Menu

There are four types of satay served here – chicken, beef, mutton and duck satay. I cant recall the last time I’ve seen or heard anything about Satay Itik. Given its rarity, I almost forgot about its existence and so seing it served here was a pleasant surprise. I did not try it this time as I was craving for Satay Ayam and Kambing in particular but I will know where to head to next time I have a craving for duck meat.

Besides satay, this restaurant also serves Soto and ‘Goreng-goreng’ like Fried Rice and more.

Satay Ayam, RM 1.50 per stick + Satay Kambing, RM 2.50 per stick

Between the two versions of satay, I preferred the Kambing version. I found the meat to be tender and better flavored. There was also less fat and more meat included.

Unfortunately, the Chicken Satay did not leave much of an impression. It appeared to be a healthier version, as it seemed like the meat was grilled without any prior coating – which usually gives it its flavor. As a result, what was presented was essentially grilled meat with minimal seasoning. I am uncertain whether this lack of flavor is the customary preparation or if it was an accidental oversight. The texture of the meat was good, leading me to ponder how much more appealing it could have been had it consisted of a well-seasoned coating.

Soto Ayam, RM 5

A Chicken Soto priced at merely 5 ringgit presents a cost-effective option for diners. With the lower price, the absence of mee hoon, the traditional noodles typically included in soto, is understandable. Instead, the dish features a generous serving of Nasi Impit, which is soaked in the flavorful soto broth. Complemented by strips of chicken, peanuts, and fried onions, resulting in an enjoyable dish.

Would I return to Minah Satay? Unlikely. Firstly, the restaurant is situated in a location I would not deem strategically located. Secondly, although I enjoyed the Satay Kambing served here, I tend to prefer establishments that excel in both their Satay Ayam and Kambing, which unfortunately was not the case in this instance.

Address: B-G, 19A, Jalan PJU 10/9a, Prima Damansara, Petaling Jaya.
Opening hours: 8am to 10pm, everyday.

Asian & Western Italian New 2026 : January Pasta Pork Free Roast Chicken with Mash Potato Sarawak Laksa Pasta Seksyen 17 Seksyen 17 PJ cafe Seksyen 17 PJ food Sweet Potato fries Ukiyo Hotel Petaling Jaya

Rothmans Place at Ukiyo Hotel, Seksyen 17, Petaling Jaya (Pork Free)

In case you’ve missed the ongoings in this side of Petaling Jaya, here is a quick update for you. Once, this area was defined by two iconic landmarks: the Rothmans roundabout and Lisa De Inn, the 3-star budget hotel that welcomed us as we approached the roundabout. Fast forward to 2026, and both landmarks has been replaced. About 16 to 17 years ago, the roundabout transformed into a traffic light junction, and years thereafter, Lisa De Inn was successfully rebranded as Ukiyo Hotel. The hotel is perfectly positioned at a central junction, providing seamless access to various parts of Petaling Jaya, including SS 2, Seapark, Seksyen 14, Seksyen 17, and beyond.

Rothmans Place is named after the iconic roundabout and is located at the lobby of Ukiyo Hotel. As a new, one month old established venue, the restaurant serves a mix of Local, Asian, Western and Italian cuisine. Given its strategic location, it is an ideal spot to ‘lepak’ whether for breakfast, lunch, tea, or simply to wait out the rush hour traffic.

The eatery’s prime location offers diners a clear view of the former Rothmans roundabout, now transformed into a bustling junction. The steady stream of traffic serves as an engaging backdrop, while the abundant natural light enhances the vibrant atmosphere of Rothmans Place. With good ventilation and a comfortable setting, I enjoyed the hour I spent at this establishment.

The hotel offers a private car park within its vicinity at a rate of RM 3 for the first three hours, followed by RM 1 for each subsequent hour, with a maximum charge of RM 15 per day. Given the location, the parking rate is reasonable. I could see myself waiting out rush hour traffic here, eating and catching up on work.

Menu

Roast Chicken with Mashed Potato, RM 25

This was a yummy dish. With a whole chicken thigh served on a generous bed of creamy, buttery mashed potato and rich gravy, this dish certainly filled up my hunger in a comforting way. The chicken itself was tender, cooked to perfection, and featured a thin, crispy layer of skin that provided a delightful crunch, which was even more delicious when eaten with the savory gravy. Unlike the usual black pepper gravy that often accompanies this dish, which I generally disliked for its intense flavor, I was pleasantly surprised that here, it resembled more of a thick curry, adding an unexpected twist that elevated the entire meal. The combination of flavors created a hearty experience, making each bite a satisfaction to savor.

Sarawak Laksa Pasta, RM 23

One notable characteristic of Sarawak Laksa is the significant influence of coconut milk on the dish, particularly regarding its broth. This influence was not apparent in this instance, as this was a dry pasta dish. From a flavor perspective, I found it appealing. It was distinctively different from the conventional pasta dishes I have had, featuring earthy undertones likely derived from certain leaves, along with subtle hints of sweetness. When combined with minced chicken, this resulted in a tasty dish. While the overall taste may not lead one to directly associate it with Sarawak Laksa, I found it enjoyable and consumed my entire portion.

Sweet Potato Fries, RM 6.50

There are two options available for the fries. One option features a larger serving size categorized under Starters, priced at RM 19, while the other presents a smaller portion listed under Sides, costing RM 6.50. After already ordering two main dishes, we could not resist the addition of sweet potato fries; thus, we chose the smaller portion, which, to be frank, was sufficient for two people. The fries were accompanied by a side of mayonnaise, although I preferred to enjoy them as it is; their crispy texture and sweet flavor were a delight.

Given the good food I enjoyed, the inviting atmosphere, and the strategic location of Rothmans Place, I am certain I will return. There were several dishes and drinks that I am eager to try on my next visit.

Address: G02, Ukiyo Hotel, Jalan 17/47, Seksyen 17, Petaling Jaya.

Opening hours: Mondays to Wednesdays, 9.30am to 6pm. Fridays to Sundays, 9.30am to 8pm.

Chinese Damansara Uptown Mapo Tofu Omurice Nasi Lemak Signature Pork Ball Nasi Lemak

Chat Hey Claypot at Uptown, Damansara Utama, Petaling Jaya – Mapo Tofu Omurice and Nasi Lemak

Since its opening one and a half years ago, the restaurant has consistently been full whenever I have walked past it at night. Recently, while in the vicinity, I chose to have lunch at this establishment. A weekday visit after 2 pm proved to be an ideal time, as the office crowd had departed, leaving the eatery mostly empty.

To me, the restaurant interior was made to replicate some of the vibrant foodie streets in China, bustling with energy and a rich tapestry of flavors. That was the feel I got from their wall decors, which featured stickers and posters as well as traditional Chinese motifs, the warm color tones that enveloped the space, creating an inviting atmosphere. The combination of these elements transported me to a lively food market area scene – which I suspect is experienced when the eatery is fully crowded.

Menu

Mapo Tofu Omurice, RM 14.90

I have a liking for Mapo Tofu, particularly for the distinct spiciness imparted by the use of Sichuan pepper in this dish. Typically ordered as a side dish or an accompaniment, it was presented here as a main course. The dish featured a generous serving of Mapo Tofu on a bed of white rice, with spring onions, onions, a rich gravy as well as egg. Although I am generally not a fan of tofu, this I liked. The soft, chewy texture of the tofu, combined with the unique, gradually intensifying spiciness, resulted in a simple yet delightful and highly enjoyable.

Signature Pork Ball Nasi Lemak, RM 14.90

One of our favorite local dishes is Nasi Lemak, and seeing it available on the menu, we were eager to try it here. Presented in a claypot, the dish had a visual appeal, although the pot appeared larger than its actual size. It featured all the classic Nasi Lemak components: Basmathi rice, peanuts, fried anchovies, sambal, and a fried egg. Additionally, it came with five pork balls, which provided an exciting twist. Upon tasting, it had a delightful chewy texture reminiscent of a chicken nugget, packed with flavor and delicious enough to enjoy on its own. The sambal leaned more towards spiciness than sweetness, which is a definite win for me, as I’m not fond of overly sweet flavors.

Overall, both dishes were good but my favorite has to be the Mapo Tofu Omurice. I would not mind ordering the dish again during my next visit.

Address: 62, Jalan SS 21/39, Damansara Utama, 47400 Petaling Jaya.

Opening hours: 11.30am to 3pm, 5.30pm to 10pm, Tuesdays to Sundays.

Aesthetically pleasing Asian & Western Chicken Sandwich Chow Kit Chow Kit cafe Pork Free Scrambled Eggs Sourdough Sourdough with Chicken Hummus

House of Wheat at Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur – Aesthetically pleasing with good food (No pork, no lard)

If you find yourself in Kuala Lumpur and are looking to explore the food scene beyond the usual haunts, House of Wheat is worth the visit. Located along Jalan Tiong Nam in Chow Kit – and area I have not previously explored – the neighborhood carries an interesting history. Once known for its lively past, including as a red light area, it has since evolve into a quiet and unassuming enclave, surrounded by bungalows and double storey houses. Nestled within a row of shop lots is House of Wheat, a pleasant surprise waiting to be discovered.

Beyond the inviting earthy tones of the café’s interior, the striking replica of a rock formation, reminiscent of a canyon, instantly captured my attention. It certainly is a visual standout. The space is spacious, featuring an interior that seamlessly transitions into various seating areas. For parking, we easily found a spot by the roadside, just a short walk from a row of houses.

Menu

Sourdough with Chicken Hummus, RM 25 + Crispy Chicken Sandwich, RM 26 + Scrambled Eggs
Sourdough with Chicken & Hummus

Both main dishes were delicious and satisfying, ensuring a delightful dining experience that left us fulfilled. The Sourdough with Chicken Hummus is a unique pairing rarely found in local cafes and it sparked our curiosity. Featuring some of our favorite ingredients on a single plate, we knew we had to try it, and it certainly did not disappoint. This dish comes with four pieces of lightly toasted and buttered sourdough, each slice perfectly crisp on the outside while remaining soft within. Accompanied by a piece of grilled chicken breast resting on a creamy bed of hummus that is both rich and flavorful, the combination of textures and tastes was incredible, showcasing a perfect balance of savory and satisfying elements.

Crispy Chicken Sandwich

As for The Crispy Chicken Sandwich, the dish included a boneless fried chicken with a perfectly crispy exterior, coated with a dash of creamy mayo and accompanied by fresh, crisp lettuce, all nestled between two slices of lightly toasted sourdough bread that added a delightful crunch. In addition to the sandwich, a choice of sides was available, between a choice of salad and golden, crispy fries; I opted for the latter, as their enticing aroma and satisfying crunch promised to complement the sandwich well, creating a delicious and fulfilling meal experience.

Omelette

The omelette was a side dish we ordered. Typically, omelettes are seldom served as requested—slightly runny and not fully cooked. However, this cafe delivered our eggs precisely how we wanted them. We relished every single bite.

Overall, our experience at House of Wheat was good. When I’m looking to dine out with friends and need a great spot, this café will be a good choice. Not only is it away from the usual places; it boasts an aesthetically pleasing ambiance and serves tasty food.

Address: 15 & 17, Lorong Tiong Nam 2, Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur.

Opened two months ago, Dulu-Dulu is a recent addition to the F&B scene in Bandar Baru Petaling Jaya/PJ New Town. With a selection of local favorites like Nasi Lemak, Mee Siam, Curry Mee, Toast, and more, one can savor kopitiam staples in a modern cafe setting. Conveniently located directly opposite KFC, parking can be a breeze depending on when you visit. While there are parking spots available just outside the eatery, don’t worry if they’re full during peak hours; there’s a multi-storey car park just a few doors down for your convenience.

Menu

Mee Siam Ayam Goreng, RM 16.90 + Dulu-Dulu Pan Mee, RM 13.90
Mee Siam Ayam Goreng
Dulu-Dulu Pan Mee

The Mee Siam Ayam Goreng was pleasant. The noodles possessed a good flavor profile, exhibiting a mild level of spiciness. The Ayam Goreng, though merely fried chicken, was enhanced by the presence of ‘rempah,’ which contributed to the overall taste of the dish. I enjoyed every bite.

In contrast, the Pan Mee did not meet our expectations, despite being labeled as a Bestseller. The issue was not with the taste, but rather with the proportions of the ingredients. The dish contained an excess of noodles while the other components were minimal. Even after ensuring a thorough mix, the composition remained approximately 80% noodles and 20% other ingredients, leading us to leave the dish unfinished. If the quantity of noodles were reduced or if the amounts of minced meat, anchovies, and other ingredients were increased, the dish could have been good, as there were no concerns regarding its flavor.

Overall, my experience at Dulu-Dulu was okay. Although I am not a fan of the crowd during peak hours, I would consider this eatery for future meetings in the vicinity. It provides a conducive environment for meet-ups, and I look forward to trying the Nasi Lemak on my next visit.
