KotaKotak at Shah Alam

Hello foodies.

At the moment, almost all parts on the outskirt of Shah Alam are developing fast now like Kota Kemuning & Glenmarie. Whenever there are development, there will be new opportunity for F&B. I passed Accentra Glenmarie area almost everyday & then i finally noticed a new cafe opened here. It took a real courage to open a cafe in Accentra Glenmarie as it wasn't a center of attention. 

The menu here focus more on fusion food came from KotaKotak's chef creativity. There is a lunch menu as well for patrons with limited lunch hour.

I'm not exactly sure how the name kotakotak came about as the cafe design certainly doesn't reflect any box type. 


After carefully studying menu, we decided to go for Chicken Burger, Our middle eastern egg & All things banana. The chicken burger was decent. Chicken thigh patty crusted with parmesan, fried egg, homemade fries & bombay aioli. The burger flavor owed very much to the homemade mayonnaise. Served with charcoal buns. The chicken thigh was succulent & soft.

Next is Our Middle Eastern Egg. Actually, the egg wasn't the main actor here. Poached eggs, sits next to rolled warm chapati & on top of homemade hummus rich with pistachio nuts bits. The hummus was very different to those arabian restaurant. Kotakotak hummus are more dense & textured. The tomato ragout provides the edge & taste for this dish.

Last but not least, we had All Things Banana for dessert. To me, this was the dish of the day. Simply amazing. The dish made of brioche, banana fritters, crushed banana chips, homemade lempeng pisang & vanilla ice cream. For banana lovers, this medley will just blow you away. The lempeng is sweet fulled with banana. The fritter is crunchy & sweet. Brioche is crunchy & soft. 

All things Banana

Overall, food served here are quite interesting. Surely there are hit & miss but certainly quite satisfying. Menu here will change every 3 months so be sure to check it out.
