The Mugshot Cafe, GeorgetOwn

it's a happee day tOday~ 
guess where I heading for lunch ???


familiar ?


woo hoo... 
I managed to persuade my colleague to fetch me to downtown...
lunch at The Mugshot Cafe !!!!
wahahhahaha...


it's right next to Rainforest Bakery @ Chulia Street...
apparently, both are running by the same owner... 
(can assure the good quality of breads / pastries)
I'm always a big fan of their healthy grain breads and pastries...
4-5 years backed, they actually operated a Guest House too, named Olive Spring, if anyone remembers...
not long after my one and only breaky visit, and it was closed down...

* click * for reference... 

when I heard about The Mugshot Cafe, I was so excited !
the owner told me, they will soon operate back the guest house at the upper levels...
still under planning stage...
stay tune, peeps...


a lot of full length mirrors to snap snap ! haha


foods and beverages menu are on board...
place order at counter and pay later before you leave with happee hearts...


apart from their signature Bagels, muffins, croissants, cakes and yogurts are available too...


I so wanted to try their Greek Yogurt...
few choices of toppings are available..
such as Kiwi & Honey / Jackfruits & Gula Melaka / mango & walnuts / walnuts & raisins...
I will make it on next visit...


pic with the owners.. haha


the baking stove is next to the coffee counter...
opened-kitchen style, to prepare your foods and toast the bagel upon orders made...




we sit at the back...
owners are so considerate to turn on air-conditioner and cooler fans...
tho it's opened-air, but you won't feel hot on such a weather at all..
I love... 



heritage houses are so tall and long...


while waiting for our foods...



'Our bagel are great, but our coffee even better!' 
is what they written on board...
no doubt, the coffee is DAEBAK !


Cafe Cappucino, rm 10
coffee aroma great goes well with the smooth froth..


Iced Cafe Mocha which recommended by the bossie... rm 12
it's good like milo peng~ haha

here come my favourite favourite Bagel !
I so miss the time I made smoked salmon bagel daily myself in Melbourne... 
gOsh...
Bagel - doughnut look alike food but way healthier than it...


toasting up the bagel before served simply an awesome idea...
it made the bagel so munchy and the sesame so crunchy ! 


Bacon & Egg on Sesame Bagel... rm 10



it's just so finger-licking-good...
the mashed of mayo on top of the egg simply a plus point...



 Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese on Sesame Bagel, rm 10
generous portion of cream cheese plus a big and long piece of smoked salmon just so yum~ 



 Corned Beef and Rocket on Poppy Seed Bagel, rm 10

plain bagel for taking home are available at Rainforest Bakery, which is just next door for only rm 1.80 each... 




happee girl that suppa in love and enjoying her bagel and great cuppa~ 




what's next, after filled up our tummies...


busy and thinking...


ta-da~

Pickle & Fig TTDI

18th Jan' 2013...
2 of my good old frens finally opened their very First-and-more-to-come Pickle & Fig Cafe in KL, TTDI...
after gone through many rounds of planning, discussions, testing, executions...
finally, it's on business now... *yippie

happy thing is, the response is kinda good since it's opened...  
I'm so happy for them...

shame on me that only managed to pay a visit after 2 months plus...
went KL for a training course, and first in my to-do-list 
= I want to go Pickle & Fig...

the overall concept is simple and nice...
which I personally very love  :)
big space, and definitely a good hang out spot, to sip a coffee or grab a healthy juice and catch some good time chit chatting... 




you will place your order at the Cashier, and pay on the spot...
the Foods and Beverages Menu have been written clearly and nicely on the big big board on the wall... 


they are concentrating on the Hot Pressed Panini, Cold Gourmet Sandwiches and Fresh Salads at the moment...
soon, they might explore on soups and other foods...
just stay tune... 

for beverages, they offer varieties of healthy juices combo...
before launching, they did many researches on the nutrition consists in each ingredients and having few rounds of test drinking among friends...
hence, the juices combo now are confirming Fantastic and "Healthilicious" !
no drama, as myself very likey... hehe



their business cards and many cards & board games are available at the counter for customers...

  

big and small tables for your choice...
and we like this huge, canteen / meeting type of seats haha



after placed order, waiter will serve cutlery and sauces to your table while waiting for your foods... 



I have this favourite Goji Me Juice, rm 12
mixture of Strawberry, Goji, Apple, Pineapple and Yogurt...
no sugar or ice added... my love, really ! 


Stef's favourite - Avocado Dates rm 13
Avocado, dates, milk & yogurt...
it's very filling and rich...


non - diary juice - Mango Passion rm 9


Caesar Salad rm 12
Romaine Lettuce + hard-boiled egg + beef bacon + crountons + shredded parmesan...
** add on rm 4 per for chicken breast 
or rm 6 for smoked salmon...

the portion is quite generous and we all very happy and love it...   :)


** all sandwiches or panini served with Homemade Triple Cooked Wedges and side salads with Balsamic dressing... 
  


Smoked Turkey Roll & Cheddar rm 15
Smoked turkey roll + sauteed mushroom + cheddar cheese + infused oil on whole meal or white bread...
this is Katz's fav... 
simple and nice   :)








Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese  rm 19
smoked salmon + capers + chives cream cheese + lemon tarragon mayo + mixed greens on focaccia


the ingredients are generous, you can taste the ingredient in every bites of any side of the sandwiches...

I've been working at several cafes / sandwich bars during my 18 mths in Melbourne...
sandwiches and salads are my best frens...
hahahahahahha
I can eat them 3 meals per day for 365 days...
So I'm pretty happy and wish to have such cafe around my living areas~ 
( * I become part of P&F d... I stick their sticker on myself... hahaha~ )

they serve nice brewed coffee too...
too bad it's dinner time, and I won't have the courage to challenge caffeine after 6pm daily...
I'm no longer at "young-age"    :(


Double-shots Flat White...
they serve nice and smooth coffee...
the bubbles from the froth in the pic, was because I took long time to talk and snap this pic... my fault...
the coffee bean used for this cup of coffee will cause the froth turned 'bubble' easier and faster than other brands according to the coffee dealer... 




in the end, I've been forced to try out this Espresso at 10 pm !!!!  
it has really nice aroma, too nice to reject, especially for coffee lover like me..
it's not bitter but a nice and strong bitter sweet after taste stay in your throat...



Baked Nachos, with pickled jalapeno, black olives, tomato salsa and melted cheese


Pickle & Fig have been featured in both I.M. and RRenovation magazines... 



Interview of both owners and a lot details can be found in the magazines introductions... 



before the entrance door, there are this on the left wall...
there are tables outside for smokers~


of course I MUST write something too, to 'prove' I was here... 
hahaha


most of the things I wanted to do within my capabilities which I listed for myself during school time I've already done... like tattoo, sky diving, study overseas, traveling alone and blah...
after few seconds of figuring..
I thought of something to write somehow...


Before I die, I wish to 
BE HAPPY
every moment... so to bring happiness to everyone around me...   :)


they have this daily promo...
please stay tune on the board at the entrance or their Facebook Official Page...


we stayed till closing...
and
OFF

second round
