Fikcles Cafe, TTDI

The deal: Meal + drink for 2 for RM28 at Fikcles Cafe

What we got:


Lontong goreng (RM10.90)

The lontong goreng seems to be a much raved-about item in the blogs we trawled prior to visiting the cafe (yes, research is important!). Fried rice cake with onions, garlic, ginger, chilli and an egg, the portion was big enough to share. As it was our first time tasting this dish, we have nothing to compare it to, but on a stand-alone basis it proved to be rather decent. We would've loved it more if there was less chilli oil pooled at the bottom of the dish.

 Hearty breakfast (RM14.90)

We wanted to try the salted egg squid, since this also seems to have garnered positive feedback from previous customers. Alas, we were informed that they would not be offering this dish that day, as they did not want to compromise on the taste of the dish as the quality of the ingredients were not up to par that day. We got the hearty breakfast instead upon their recommendation.

The scrambled eggs, unfortunately, suffered from too much of a good thing--with the good thing being butter. Not sure if it was a fluke that day, but like how Kaffa Cafe botched their scrambled eggs with way too much salt, the chef here seems to be a bit too generous with the butter. The sausage was slightly spicy and very delicious, while the mushrooms, baked beans, tomato and croissant was average. 

Green tea extravaganza (RM14.90)

Essentially ice-blended green tea with milk. You'll love this if you love Starbuck's ice-blended green tea cream. Serving size was great too.

Flat white (RM8.90)


If there's one thing we would recommend they improve on, it would be the ventilation of the place. Because the kitchen wasn't properly separated from the dining area, we could smell what's cooking the moment we opened the doors to the establishment; not exactly what we expect when we choose to have our meal at a cafe. That aside, our waiter was really friendly, making for a pleasant dining experience.

Tax: None


How  much we paid: RM28
