A Cozy Hideout for Bookworms and Brunch Lovers

#kotakinabaluguide During my Kota Kinabalu trip, I found this charming café tucked away in a quiet corner—perfect for those who love slow mornings with good food and cozy vibes. I ordered their sourdough with pumpkin kaya and a pot of green tea, and it was so comforting. The kaya had a smooth, creamy texture and just the right sweetness, paired perfectly with the crisp and warm sourdough slices. What I loved even more was the vibe—rustic interiors, a shelf full of indie books and postcards, and warm lighting that made everything feel peaceful. Whether you're looking for a peaceful solo spot to read or just somewhere calming to start your day, this place is a must-visit. It’s the kind of café that instantly slows down time.

#summervacation #tripfoodie Nice environment with wifi and electric socket. Like that they use rottan chairs. Lavender lemomade was not bad and the color was great. It wont be too sour. Maybe just dont really like that it closes early as 6pm or 6.30pm Carbonara was a 5/10 for me personally as it was too buttery with too little cheese. Staff was nice to offer cheese powder though. Apple crumble french toast - 6/10 (points for fluffy french toast with yummy vanilla ice cream. Apples could be more glazed) #tripfoodie#summervacation
