BACKSTAGE CAFE

When mention about the word 'Cafe', the first thing that came to mind is crowded, packed, long waiting hours, noisy. But among all this cafe craze, I am thankful to find a cafe that is located away from the busy city in the smaller suburb where i can truly get to enjoy the cafe experience.

How does a cafe in the industrial estate sound to you? Some would react with wide unconvincing eyes or worries about the ease of getting there. But well, this cafe is totally different. Accessible by bus, complimentary parking for drivers, tall ceiling, spacious and most importantly, you get to enjoy your meal with peace.

Opened in mid 2013, the cafe undergo a revamp in early 2014 to give customers a more comfortable dining experience.
