Vintage Cafe

Cosy, comfortable and right in the heart of the tourist belt of Old Town. This is Vintage Cafe, a relatively new kid on the block (two years old), offering fusion fare that can hold its own with the ‘big’ boys.

Why Vintage Cafe? Because it is right in the middle of all the heritage restorations that the area boasts and for that reason, the cafe is decorated with interesting ‘vintage’ knick knacks meant to create an ambiance of old world charm. Setting foot into the cafe, one would indeed be taken back to the 1940s, when the building was constructed.

The menu is eclectic ranging from homemade waffles to crepe cakes to thin crust pizzas and mains of lamb, chicken and fish. Sounds ordinary enough but in the hands of Chef Mac, some of these dishes really sizzle. Like the Fried Chicken Waffle Sandwich, crispy crackling fried chicken tenders sandwiched between two slices of homemade waffle, with crisp lettuce, pickles, mayo and cheddar cheese. What’s not to like….other than getting your hands greasy, and a mouth big enough to take bites – RM22.

I love their Spicy Lamb Pizza, crispy thin crust topped with Chef’s special spicy lamb tomato sauce, red onions, rocket leaves, mozzarella and parmesan. Every mouthful a pleasure – RM28.

Their set lunches are great value at RM15.90++ served from 11am to 3pm and comes with a free drink.

And if you are looking for a classic slice of cake, try their very own Neapolitan Crepe cake, delicate layers of crepe slathered with a changing range of cream fillings. Sweet heaven in a mouthful. They also have an Omakase menu with an advanced booking only.

Finally sip Siphon coffee and enjoy their signature Key Lime Parfait, the base made of graham cracker, the middle is Key Lime filling topped with blueberries and cream.

Vintage’s exclusive Omakase (I’ll leave it up to you) menu on an advanced booking only.
