Cafe Berlin @ 1 Mont Kiara Mall

A promising entry into Mont Kiara, serving an array of German, French & Italian bread.

We have trouble pronouncing Cafe Berlins offerings (vollkornbrot? schwartzbrot?), but even if words wont roll off our tongues, flavors can be relished by our taste buds.

Cafe Berlin supplies everything from simple Vesper mixed wheat bread ...

... to loaves loaded with grainy goodness, great enough to eat on their own.

Dense & heavy with seeds & nuts, making a RM20 ten-slice loaf worth the premium.

Also available: wheat-rye kruestchen & stollen fruitcake (even if its not Christmas).

Bonus stop: A short drive from Mont Kiara Mall, Swich has opened its dine-in outlet at Publika.

Entries on Swich Cafe at HP Towers: July 20, 2012 & Jan. 6, 2013.

Its a treasure trove of Swichs greatest hits, finally available seven days a week, from irresistible guilty pleasures like butter soft-shell-crab pasta with salted egg yolk ...

... to conscience-appeasing creations like a walnut, fig & pear salad thats vivid with flavors.

The menu at Publikas Swich is only slightly less extensive than the HP Towers outlets; the cornucopia of comfort food spans pizzas sold by the slice to chunky chicken rendang burgers creamily coated in peanut sauce.

And of course, Swichs now-famed cakes are available too (from time to time, fortunate customers might find Swich founder Cheng Chengs masterful mangosteen cake up for grabs). The cafe is located on G3, the level above MPH.
