So, we found another place that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and tea-time. Levain is located at Jalan Delima, nearby Noble House and Ka-Soh. Its exterior is something to be admired in which they had transform a big old double-storey house into a nice-looking bakery and restaurant. Apparently, it is always full-house during lunch hours so if you want to get a nice seat, it's advisable to come early before the lunch hour starts. The concept there is simple. You get a place, remember the table number, and order your food and give them your table number at the cashier and the food will be served to your table.
Creamy Mushroom Chicken Soup @ RM5.40
It's really delicious. Thick creamy texture with plenty of mushrooms and chicken inside.
Seafood Aglio Olio @ RM12.50
Served with 2 pieces of crispy bread. It has plenty of seafood in it and the pasta is cooked to perfection. A little drizzle of olive oil and some chilli peppers complements the whole dish perfectly. The portion is just right for one person. The only thing I was not satisfied with it is that while they gave plenty of fish meat and prawns, there are less squid in it.
Toasted Chicken Cutlet Sandwich @ Rm9.90
Crusty toast with big pieces of chicken cutlet in between. They had drizzled some sauce on the chicken cutlet which I suspect is teriyaki sauce and made the whole dish a little salty/sour. It's tasty but you might have a hard time eating it as a whole because it's quite a big portion. Can be shared between 2 person.
Macaroons @ 1-5 for RM3.60 each, 6-9 for for RM3.30 each, 10 & above for RM3.00 each
PISTACHE - , LIMONE-, JASMINE-, FRAISE (Strawberry)-
The macaroons were actually not too sweet as I imagined. The sweetness is just right and their variety of flavours is something to be amazed at. There are many types of macaroons that I had problem choosing them. However, it's sold out pretty fast so if you want to buy the flavours that you want, better be there early. I recommend trying the Jasmine flavour and the Limone flavour. Fraise flavour was not bad too but Pistache flavour has a bit of a weird taste but that is just my opinion. If you are feeling adventurous, try their Durian flavour!
Chocolate Baked Tart @ RM9.50
Delectable dessert. A sinful dessert where the whole dessert is coated with chocolate. Chocolate tart, chocolate mousse, chocolate ganache and cocoa powder. Truly a paradise for the chocoholics.
The Breads & Pastries
Unfortunately, we were too full to try out the breads and pastries. We will make a visit to Levain again, this time devoting ourselves to trying the mouthwatering breads and pastries.
