New Kid on the Block
Let's be honest. One don't normally expect to find chic cafe in Melawati. This being a rather middle-class, predominantly Muslim neighbourhood, people there tended to be conservative. The demography was also on the older side, mainly a place for the retiree. The neighbourhood had been around for more than 40 years, which explained it.
It was a surprise when we bumped into a newly opened branch of Espressolab when we went there the other day - and when we bumped into the food truck parked right in front of it.
Free wifi, decent ambiance, but the coffee was not really that great unfortunately. It may be our bad luck that the evening's brew just was not up to scratch. Or at least we hoped so. Still a nice place to hand around. Didn't sample the free wifi though as I had LTE.
The location was nice enough that I might be coming back for another look. The outlet did not offer much cooked food though from looking at the menu, unlike the branch at Great Eastern Mall.
