Ole Barista @ Kompleks Perniagaan Syahbandar Melaka

Ole in Arabic means Bravo, and it is always being associated with an expression of JOY; Barista, an Italian word to describe a preparer of coffee behind a counter. And so, my first impression when i heard Ole Barista was this shop is definitely serving good coffee.

Ole Barista is a new cafe in Melaka. A simple cafe with nice atmosphere, and simple decoration. Slightly disappointed as I was expecting a corner with  just sofa + pillows, books; but indeed it looks more likes a eating places rather than a coffee cafe to chill out.

Ole Barista offers moderate selection for coffees, tea, western meals, sandwiches and some basic items.

We started off with the mushroom soup. Taste was fine, but texture wise slightly diluted. It will be good if it is more creamy and rich.

Mushroom soup RM5.90

We sampled the club sandwich. White bread, without toasted, and it came in layer of ham, egg, leafy green with fries as side. The bread was soggy, and so did the french toast. Quite bland tasted. Ingredients were fresh though.

Club Sandwich RM10.90

French Toast RM3.90

Coffee and hot chocolate by the young owners of Ole Barista.

Overall it is consider a nice place to relax over. Service is friendly. One thing they should add in to their menu might be cakes i guess since coffees are always best match with cakes :p

We do appreciate the nice environment, the chef's effort in incorporating the fresh ingredients, but taste wise for both food and drinks, there is room for improvement. Probably give the young owners some time to gain more experience and to hone their taste buds. Will return again to give another try.
