Chocha Foodstore @ Petaling Street, KL

Heritage area in KL is really rare. There is these pre-war houses at Petaling Street is slowing changing its vibe, attracting few F&B and bar operating in the area. One of the latest add on is Chocha Foodstore. This cafe is offering Asian delights with a twist. In the menu mention that they will be launching a bigger soon, along with opening of cocktail bar & wine lounge on second floor in near future.

Love the ambiance of this place. Unfinish walls, classic colour pastel titles, mining light bulps and classic food furniture add on the feel of it. One of a unique cafe in KL.

To add onto the feel of it, they have also created classic tea. We tried Taiwanese Dong Ding Oolong & Yunnan Black Tea with osmanthus flowers & star anise @ RM16 per bottle.

In the menu, Chinese Pesto Flat Noodle attracted my attention cause it is housemade noodle, flat and packed with ulam pesto with charred capsicum, semi-dried tomato, crunchy peanut and aromatic sesame seed. Taste is pretty strong with unique twist indeed. Find that the flavour is too strong to my liking and I could not finish the plate itself.

This is another unique twist. Serve with mix of barley and rice to add in the mouthful bite, and top with pan-seared duck confit breast, poached egg, and house pickle. Combination of flavour is interesting and just a note where as you keep eating, saltiness of it is overpowering.

As for the food, it might be too “modern” for me but they sure do have great ambiance. Maybe I will look forward for their upcoming bar.

Another famous cafe in Petaling Street is just right beside them- Merchant Lane.
