CrafRoaster, KLPAC, Sentul

A cup of joe by a lake, surrounded by green & the sweet sound of birds chirping and the rustling of the wind. A place I don't mind coming time and again, if the weather is fine! 

CrafRoaster is an event space/cafe located inside KLPAC (Kuala Lumpur Performing Art Centers). It's on your right once you enter the main building of KLPAC. 

There are greens in every corner of this space - albeit some looks like they are in need of some water :p 

Some really thirsty Monstera... :p

CrafRoaster offers both indoors & outdoors seating space, and they have plenty of long communal table, which makes it great for large group gathering (whilst complying to the social distancing SOP please!). I definitely preferred the outdoor seating, albeit it can get rather hot and toasty in the afternoon. The team behind craf was thoughtful enough to place a standing fan outdoors and put the tables & chairs under shady trees though. 

The indoor seating space feels spacious & airy - thanks to the floor-to-ceiling glass windows. One will have to place their order & pay at the counter upon ordering.

The Food & Drinks

CrafRoasters serves Western, Local & fusion delights.  Food menu here.Sunday roast is available on Sundays. Was there on a Sunday and I noticed quite a few tables having the Sunday roast which looks rather appetising.  

The Shazz / Melbourne Ice Coffee RM16.90

Espresso & milk, topped with two scoops of vanilla ice cream & caramel sauce. 

Sinful, but a wonderful respite from the heat on a hot sunny day. 

Long Black RM930 

After your meal/drink at craf, do have a stroll around the vicinity :)

This is definitely a place where I wouldn't mind going time and again for coffee :) Parking is free at KLPAC so that's a huge bonus factor :p

Three Little Birds Coffee, Sentul D7

Bird-Eye View of Three Little Birds Coffee, a cafe amidst green, sunlight & modern architectures in the artistic building of D7 at Sentul.

Three Little Bird is the latest brainchild of the team behind Artisan Roast & Nowhereman Coffee at Bangsar, at a location that sets to calm your senses with it's serenity and calming atmosphere, where sunlight basked the aviary through the gorgeous green vines...

Close your eyes...And listen to the soothing sound of water splashing.

Isn't this a perfect place to sip your coffee & unwind! Of course, please do remember to bring along mosquito repellent if you're susceptible to mosquitoes bite. And perhaps some sunscreen when it is blistering outside.

Ah yes, Three Little Birds do have an air-conditioned indoor seating area too.

And next to it is their store, full of bags of coffee beans.

And also their own roaster, where they roast their beans in-situ :D

The interior of the indoor area of Three Little Birds- a blend of industrial & wood, with its wet-looking cement floor & triangular wooden chairs.

Coffee Menu

Cakes & Chocolates & Pastries. Yes, they do serve AR Signature Cheese Cake here :) Pastries served at TLB are supplied by the famous Tommy Le Baker @ Jalan Ipoh.

Mocha (Dulcey) RM13

White chocolate Mocha

We absolutely love the Dulcey Mocha! Smooth & milky, with the right amount of sweetness, just like the one I had at Artisan Roast HQ @ Section 13. Of course, you can also opt for the normal dark chocolate Mocha if you're feeling more sophisticated.

Our food was served when we're halfway through our coffee and we had the biggest dilemma figuring out which to dig in first.

Nutella Pau + Coconut Affogato RM18

When East meets West dessert. Well yes, we had to devour this up first or the creamy & aromatic The Last Polka ice-cream would just turn into liquid cream coconut. 

The coconut affogato was divine. A perfect marriage between sweet & bitter. The creamy cold ice-cream tickled my taste buds, with the perfect blend of aromatic & sweet coconut flavour and bitter espresso. 

And meet Nutella Pau. Nutella Lau Sha Bao, to be exact. Imagine popping in a fluffy pau overflowing with pipping hot, rich chocolate-y nutella goodness into your mouth...ahh yes, feel free to droll over your screen hehe :P 

Tommy Le Baker Sandwich (Beef) RM12
Crunchy toasted baguette encasing generous tender slices of roasted beef, shredded cheese, tomatoes & pickles, slathered with creamy mayo to finish it off. We left the sandwich intact on the table for about 10 minutes but the baguette was still nice & crunchy, not wet & soggy as feared.
