A morning at 1 kopitiam & 2 cafes~ Golden Kim Wah, Lavie Boulangerie & Universal Bakehouse, Damansara Kim

Morning date with bestie, this time we went to 1 kopitiam and 2 cafes in one morning in Damansara Kim, all located at the same row. We had early breakfast at Golden Kim Wah Kopitiam since the cafes open only after 8am. Most of the food here are good and worth trying that's why we are here! We both choose Penang Hokkien mee since we miss Penang so much; and it is the Penang Hokkien mee taste we familiar with! The stall owner uncle is so generous, he gave us an extra bowl of broth since our broth reduce nearly half after absorb by the beehoon (we both asked for beehoon only). No extra charge, just RM9.50 for a bowl of hearty Hokkien mee! 





After breakfast and stroll around the SS20 neighbourhood park behind the shoplots. We came to Lavie Boulangerie, just few doors away from Golden Kim Wah for a cup of latte and cromboloni. I remember that this place was Bakely-la well-known with it's long fermented croissants. After never been here for 2 years, now the name has changed and place also renovated. However the breads and pastries~ croissants, cruffins, crumble danish, kouign-amanns etc all still the same! Let bestie chose what she want~ and she picked the chocolate cromboloni~ a round shaped croissant with creamy chocolate filling. The chocolate filling is not overly sweet, nice to share among two of us. They also served all-day-breakfast, pasta and sandwiches, will come back to try next time when we come to Damansara Kim again!











After hang around for more than an hour and a lot's of talking, we leave Lavie and drop by Universal Bakehouse which is another few doors away to get their signature sourdough home. Very limited seats, only few tables outside and window bar seating with 3 highchairs inside, as it is meant for take-out than dine-in. The old school signage is follow the original design of the previous business in this premises - the Universal Laundry which has been around for 40 years until the owner retired at age 80. New owner decided to keep the name and original design of signage to honour the neighbourhood's legacy. This bakery opens it's door in 2019 is owned by the restaurant next door - Table and Apron.
