Nido Cafe @ Melaka Raya

Another hidden gem in the town! I first noticed this cafe when I saw a friend checked-in to this cafe in Facebook. Haha, thanks to Facebook, I found this favourite cafe of mine so far in Melaka.

Quietly sit on the first floor among the busy area of Melaka Raya, it might be slightly difficult for you to locate the cafe. But no worries, as you may look for this wholesale bag shop which located exactly downstair of Nido Cafe; or alternatively, look for Sironi Nyonya Restaurant, which is beside the wholesale bag shop :p

Simply love the uncomplicated, spacious form of design in Nido Cafe. It's the coziness and warmth that brought by the concept itself. Unlike most of the cafes out there, the uncluttered layout of tables allows a comfortable and restful environment for a nice chit chat session with friends.

Plenty of nice reading materials can be found here

As usual, hot chocolate lover me got myself a nice hot chocolate. It was rich and yummy! And Tze commented that both the coffee, Latte and Cappuccino were great also, smooth and aromatic.

Hot Cappuccino RM10 Hot Chocolate RM10

Hot Latte RM10

Nido Special is something different for you if you in need of something cold and light. A mixture of soda water + berries, this drink is light and refreshing.

Lemon water that served FOC

Nido Cafe is definitely the perfect place to meet for drinks with friends, or to enjoy a nice cup of coffee alone in a lazy afternoon :) Love this place! My only humble comment is I wish that the cafe owner may consider to extend the business hours till night time. So I may have more chances to hang out here :p

Backlane Coffee @ Jonker Street Melaka

The month of October welcomes another new cafe to Malacca! Thanks to my dear friend Gui who introduced me this new cafe, Backlane Coffee. Backlane Coffee located "inside" a souvenir shop ( besides Koong Woh Tong herbal jelly shop), right opposite the Jonker Street main stage. Yes, it is inside a shop so you could hardly see the cafe from the facade :p

This cafe seems like an oasis free from distraction of the busy Jonker Street. The ambience is very welcoming and relaxing with the nice interior set up.

We were quite pleased with both the cake - "Backlane Passion" and macaron. Backlane Passion is with layers of passion fruits cream, chocolate mousse, white chocolate and the tempting caramel glaze. Not too sweet, with a bit of sour taste which was really refreshing. While the chocolate macaron, texture and filling were smooth, though i found it slightly too sweet for my liking.

Backlane Passion RM12.50

Tempting layers :)

Chocolate macaron RM4.50

Beverages wise, nothing much impressive. It looks tempting though for Ice Chocolate float which Gui's ordered. And for the Honey Melon Tea, taste was a bit too mild :(

Iced Chocolate Float RM13.50

Honey Melon Tea RM7.50

Staffs were quite friendly and attentive. They approached me several time just to check whether i need to add any hot water for the tea without me even asked for.

Both us did have a good time here. I believe the cakes here are worth for my second visit, haha.

Fahrenheit 600 cafe @ Publika

Our second visit to Fahrenheit 600 cafe at Publika. It is more than a cafe I should say due to its' extensive menu.  And reason to come back: Super value for money lunch set + the superb tempting tasty cake as dessert!

Fahrenheit 600 was packed with customers as usual.  The Koi sisters had to wait for minutes before we got a table. We straight had our orders placed and again, as usual, the food were being served fast and yet, remain the same good quality. In fact, the Koi sisters were having such a great time here with the comfortable environment and energetic & humorous staffs :) Love this place!

The very rich Chocolate Mousse. One word: Yumilicious!
