Garage 51

 As a Sunway University student, Garage 51 is a place that you have got to try at least once (right behind the campus). So, here is my take on the well-known coffee place to-go-to.

Left: Maria Palova Mash Potato with Chicken Ham Cheese Mushroom; Right: Red Velvet

So, apparently when you are there it will be wise for you to order coffee right? But, we went there during the water rationing season so no coffee is being produced. I was like, a coffee shop with no coffee on  the menu. Hmm, they should stock up on water or something instead.

Oh well,
The brunch meal was disappointing. The brown round patty lookalike is no fried chicken but it is hashbrown instead. I do not like it as the flour coating/dough tasted like eating KFC with hashbrown inside and it is pretty salty. Blek!

The red velvet was jusk OK, a little on the dry side though. With my disappointed face, my friend told me that they are popular for their coffee so might not be hyped for their food. Well, maybe. I need to go another round and order their coffee this time for redemption. 

Coffee Ink

In Klang area, it is hard to find for a good coffee shop like those offered in Klang Valley areas until the existence of Coffee Ink. Founded by 2 young guys (if I am not mistaken) Coffee Ink is in town, Bukit Tinggi opposite Aeon Bukit Tinggi. 

Getting There:

The area made it very accessible as it is easily spotted especially those who are not from around here. Those from KL areas, could use the Kesas Highway and drive towards Bandar Botanic or Bukit Tinggi. Once the highway ended, Aeon Bukit Tinggi will be on your left and Coffee Ink is along the row of shops upstairs on the right.

Above: Peanut Butter and Blueberry Crepe; Below: Hazelnut Latte

Their coffee are more to the stronger and bitter side, thus might not be favoured by light coffee drinkers. However, you could go for Hot Chocolate and/or flavoured coffee with Belgian Hot Chocolate as their signature chocolate drink

Their Latte however, was not great as I have tasted better. It might be due to personal preference as I prefer my latte with a thicker and creamy/smooth foam which is not quite the case here at Coffee Ink. However, their flavoured lattes tasted pretty good as it was adequately flavoured with rich tasty syrup (and also according to the barista who makes it).

I love chocolate flavoured desserts and it is what I usually opt for. While expecting for a creamy rich flavour from the Chocolate Crepes, it however did not turn that way. But, the Peanut Butter and Blueberry Crepes is one of the best I have ever tasted! It just so filled with the right flavours and richness in your mouth and the combo of peanut butter and blueberry is like peanut butter and jelly. Its AMAZEBALLS!

Coffee Ink however, only serves coffee and crepes until now which has an addition of 'Breakfast for Dinner' from 6PM to 9PM.
