One of the best cafe in KL town, #VCR

Here's one of KL's hidden cafe on Jalan Galloway, VCR provides pleasures for dinners of vintage styled cafe. The walls of this cafe are painted all black. Black as the black cat you see on the streets and black as the night's sky. This cafe used to be like the row of houses around it but it has been remodeled and retaining only several original charms like the  floorboards on the second floor and back stairs for staffs to use. The cafe has 2 floors. On the ground floor, it has many windows to allow as much of sun light to enter the cafe during the day and during the night it can be cozy-romantic. It allows customers to view the tempting cakes next to the place where customers comes in to place their orders as well as watching baristas chatter and work their skills behind bars. On the upper floor, the windows are wider and more spacious compared to the ground floor. It is a quieter environment upstairs enabling customers to be more focused on their work.

In terms of coffee, the baristas here are well-knowledge and passionate about their coffee. They are also willing to share their coffee knowledge with those who are interested.  Feel free to #askthebarista about anything and provide feedback too as it is encouraged. We were also treated a hand-brewed filter from the baristas working at VCR to display their skills on trying to achieve the best coffee and satisfying their customers. Their espresso machines are also one of the top-notch machines used for coffee that would bring about coffee aficionado stare. Along with their coffee, they also serve a variety of cakes, tarts and quiches. All of them looks so tempting. However, we picked one of their cakes that are to die for and it is famous among the loyal customers here. With the most indulgent being The King Cake, banana cake layered with peanut butter frosting, banana slices and chocolate. Moreover, they have just started serving food on their menu and to be honest, it tastes just as good as its coffee served.  Pricing here is very reasonable, especially for their quality on coffee and cakes. Reasons to visit here would be their opening hours are 8-11pm everyday (even on holidays, except public holidays), great coffee, their rooftop green patch that allows customers to sit and relax on and their famous The King cake. Ratings for this place is 8/10. Two thumbs UP!!
