Swich Cafe, Publika – Mangosteen Cake, Burnt Sugar Cake & Red Velvet

CC had somehow done it again. Just as I thought I had sampled the best of her cakes, she came up with an avocado cake!

Here’s my loot just yesterday, a reward for myself after appearing on Bella Society on NTV7, marking a great start to the year 2013. 🙂

Swich Cafe – love the Durian Mud Pie, Cempedak Cake, Carrot Cake, Fruit Cake and Hummingbird Cake!

** UPDATE: Swich’s intriguing Mangosteen Cake, rich Burnt Sugar Cake and everyone’s favourite cake – the Red Velvet!

For those who find HP Towers on Jalan Gelanggang a challenge to get to on weekdays (like me) the Swich outlet in  Publika is due to open pretty soon.

The better news than that? Swich cakes are already available for your consumption pleasure, with a small stall right in front of Sushi Q in Publika starting 2 Mondays ago.

YEAST Boulangerie – Bistro and Bar à Vin @ Telawi Bangsar

The newest and most promising French boulangerie and casual dining outlet commenced operations just last week.

Yeast Bakery, Telawi Bangsar-030

I first got wind of it when Chef Paul of The Cooking Studio hinted at an upcoming French bakery during my Rachel Allen session just a month back. Chef Paul, who knew about my obsession with breads and desserts had confidently proclaimed that my woes of seeking good European breads here in KL are over.

BELOW: Gruyere Cheese and Smoked Duck Batard (RM TBC), Walnut Raisin loaf (RM12).

Just Heavenly Cafe – Bangsar Shopping Centre

When I was in Nepal for the Air Asia X CSR – One Child One Laptop Programme (OLPC); I remembered showing these bright, inquisitive children pictures of my life in KL. One of the folders they loved was this set of pictures from the Just Heavenly Cafe at Bangsar Shopping Centre.

Namoo on the Park – Korean Dessert Cafe and Bistro @ Publika

I’ll be heading to Urbano eFresco as the owner has invited me several times to sample the food. With Ramadhan coming to a close, I’ve finally almost finished all my Ramadhan reviews & now able to focus on other outlets. The Craft Bakers outlet you see below offers remarkable artisan breads freshly baked everyday. Check out their range HERE.

Now right opposite Craft Bakers and Urbano eFresco is Namoo on the Park. A cute name and an even quirkier cafe, Namoo caught my attention with its Rice Burger and cakes.

BELOW: Quirky decor and whimsical touches around the cafe tugged at the corners of my mouth.
