Cafe Lafayette @ Damansara Uptown, PJ
What is the first thing that came to your mind when you think of Damansara Uptown? For me, it is definitely the eateries at the area. Damansara Uptown was THE place for me when I first started cafe hop around PJ area. As time goes by, new cafes are popping up but one of my favourite cafes to hang out is Cafe Lafayette.
Cafe Lafayette was first opened in 2014, and the cosy cafe is one of the places I'll go whenever I'm looking to have comfort food and chill. My favourite spot is the sofa area near the window. Looking out to the street while sipping on my coffee, that's the best!
A hidden corner at the cafe for those who seek for privacy.
About 2 weeks ago, my friends and I paid a visit to Cafe Lafayette and spent a whole afternoon at the cafe.
Cafe Lafayette has recently introduced a new dish - Lafayette Special Big Platter (RM 42), which can be shared by 2 persons. The platter includes chicken chop, fish 'n chips, 2 mushroom soups and 2 ice lemon tea. Can't decide what to order? This "surf & turf" could solve your dilemma.
Aglio Mushroom. Spaghetti tossed with assorted fresh mushroom, chili flakes, garlic and olive oil. If you love spicy food, do give this a go. Personally, I felt this was slightly spicier than the usual aglio. Still very delicious though.
Vegetarian Cheese Baked Penne. Cheese! Cheese! Cheese!!!! And more cheese!!!!!! A simple baked penne but the generous amount of cheese on top of it was too hard to resist.
Honestly, can you say no to these cheesy goodness??? I know I can't!
Fried Mozzarella. One of the must haves at Cafe Lafeyette. Again, if you are a cheese lover, you can't miss out on these babies - crispy on the outside, cheesy on the inside.
Apart from the cheesy fillings, I like the dipping sauce a lot. At first glance, it looked like a common tomato sauce, but the mild heat in it was very appetizing.
Bolognese Mushroom. Spaghetti served with mushrooms, olives and tossed in bolognese sauce. Personally, I'm not a fan of bolognese but this was as acidic as some other bolognese I've had before.
It's dessert time!!! And let's start with one of my favourite dessert at Cafe Lafayette - Black Mango. Oreo mousse topped with fresh mangoes, marshmallows and oreo crumbles, the Black Mango wasn't too sweet and light enough to wrap up your meal.
Tiramisu Parfait. Deconstructed tiramisu, have you tried before?
Strawberry Stack. Crispy waffles stacked with fresh strawberries and ice cream at the side. Nice to see, nice to eat as well.
Banana Chocolate Honey Toast. I didn't realize Cafe Lafayette serves honey toast too. Personally, I find the toast was only so-so, but I love the fresh bananas and ice cream on top.
Menu at Cafe Lafayette might not be very extensive, but they serve delicious comfort food. On top of the dishes above, the risotto at Cafe Lafayette is also another must try.
