Acme Bar and Coffee, situated right beside KLCC, is an award winning eatery that’s a favourite for its extensive menu and unique, chic setting. Taking in the looks of a New York City loft, the interior of this café is smooth combination of clean steel lines, comfy sofas, plush cushions and floor to ceiling glass walls with Jazz music calmly playing in the background. Serving delicious and wholesome breakfast from 9.30am to 5.00pm, you must totally try the Salt Beef Eggs Benedict as well as the Organic Buckwheat pancakes.

I remember trying their to-die-for Sizzling Pan Brownies! Gosh that indulgence when they pour the chocolate sauce all over the warm brownie on a hot cast iron skillet, the sizzling sound as the sauce hits the pan and the aroma that penetrates through your nostrils... it's just heavenly.

The Good Batch Café at Damansara Utama

Next up! The Good Batch is a cozy brunch retreat in Damansara Utama that serves sumptuous all-day breakfasts, crunchy salads and light snacks, as well as a good range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. '

Serving a harmonious blend of Malaysian flavors in classic western fare, the highly recommend food here would be - The Good Stuff (grilled mango-stuffed French toast drizzled with crushed nuts, gula Melaka, caramel sauce served with a side of creamy vanilla ice-cream) and Malaysian-Lah (chunky lamb marinated in Malaysian spices, tossed with potato cubes and fresh greens, all wrapped in roti canai). You cannot get any more Malaysian fusion with it especially with the spices and that roti canai! Yums :)

The Red Beanbag at Publika

Another hit favourite for breakfast and brunches is The Red Beanbag! Situated within Publika Mall in Solaris Dutamas, is a modern Australian-inspired café that serves up hearty all-day breakfasts and western delicacies. During weekend mornings, it is often fully-packed with youths and families so be sure to head there by 10:00am to avoid a long queue.

French toast, eggs Benedict, and pancakes are served for breakfast while mains such as risottos, pastas and burgers are served from 12:00pm onwards. Get up early and go get your hearty breakfast which is so good especially if you had a good morning workout. So missing their Eggs Benedict which I must say are one of my favourite places to settle my cravings.

VCR Café in Bukit Bintang

Located right in the heart of the city, you just cannot miss out on VCR Cafe especially for those of you who are coffee advocates! VCR Café is a great place for discerning coffee drinkers and brunch lovers. Remodeled from a corner-lot building, this attractive cafe retains much of its original charm and old-world feel while an airy, breezy, rattan-chaired setup dominates the first floor. Serving a nice range of coffee from single-origin beans and unique blends, VCR Cafe also offers hot chocolate that’s made with quality Valrhona cocoa.

Complement your choice of caffeine with its delicious homemade cakes. The must haves will surely be The King Cake, an indulgent banana cake layered with peanut butter frosting, banana slices and chocolate.You will definitely get your good fix of coffee plus some of their hot meals when you're in KL.
