Aka Cafe @ Taman Desa

January 8, 2016


Helmed by Malaysian mother-&-daughter team Amanda & Aika, this hidden cafe offers a slice of cosy calm in Taman Desa, with a selection of Japanese snacks & fusion fare inspired by Amanda's years of living in Tokyo; expect everything from onigiri & inari sushi to ebi fry with curry rice & chicken katsu with toasted bread, with most servings costing between RM6 & RM20.

The chicken stew with carrots, potatoes & rice (RM15) & a moist, tender hambugu sandwich with a rich sauce (RM20 for a beef patty topped with fried egg) convey wholesome, home-made flavours. Matcha ice cream (RM8) is a fuss-free option for dessert; if you want a more elaborate concoction, check out the cookies-&-cream ice cubes with chilled chocolate milk (RM12).
