Withstanding the test of time is The Red Beanbag, a modern cafe in Publika / Solaris Dutamas which has been around since 2011. This stalwart in Publika's dining scene continues drawing in the crowds and churning out consistently, well-executed meals, arguably better than ever.
While the restaurant interior remains the same over the years, the menu which is prodominantly Australian-inspired (think brunch) has been injected with unique Asian twists.
We started with the light, refreshing Beet It! Salad (RM28), which comes with beetroot cured salmon along with mesclun salad, avocados, pickled cucumber, cherry tomatoes, radish, red cabbage, nori seaweed and sesame dressing. The beetroot gives the salmon a pretty tinge of colour and I loved the addition of the creamy avocados, nori seaweed (umami) and the tangy pickled cucumber which gave it a nice sharpness.
Start your day right with beautifully poached, runny eggs. Order the The Atlantic (RM27), in-house cured salmon served with two poached eggs, ikura, wilted Australian baby spinach, sauteed mushrooms and fluffy brioche toast, drizzled with Hollandaise sauce. The presentation and flavours were absolutely spot on. And that brioche toast is so good!
The Black Sheep (RM32) features a huge, juicy lamb patty with lollo bionda lettuce, caramelised onions, gherkin, aioli sauce and fried egg, sandwiched between charcoal buns. The burger also comes with crispy, curry fries.
For those with a penchant for spicy food, we highly recommend The Kraken, which delivers delicious, punchy flavours. Squid ink spaghetti is served with a whole, grilled squid, shimeiji mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and a highly addictive spicy creamy sauce. The squid was perfectly grilled and tender, and was complemented beautifully by the spicy creamy sauce, inspired by the Malaysian sambal.
The Avocado Ice Cream (RM16) is the perfect remedy for the current hot spell. Three generous scoops of smooth, creamy, homemade avocado ice cream is served with brownie chunks and honeycomb and nutella fudge sauce.
My favorite cheesecake currently is burnt cheesecake, so I just had to try the version that they offer here. Hit the jackpot, as the Basque Burnt Cheesecake (RM15) was absolutely sublime - so smooth and rich with a lovely creamy centre.
Enjoy a cup of coffee by their award-winning barista. Cappucino (RM10)
Iced Green Tea Matcha by Niko Neko (RM14)
