Blue Dahlia blossoms as PJ’s charming new cafe for classic Malaysian kuih and desserts, relying on a Malaccan Peranakan mother’s home-nurtured recipes for generations-old favourites.

Everything’s worth nibbling - bingka ubi, pulut inti kelapa, pulut panggang, kuih koci, kuih kosui, kuih talam, onde-onde, seri muka, sago kelapa, keledek kelapa, kacang mochi, and buttery pineapple tarts.

Each bite feels comfortingly familiar, with dense textures and clean, clear flavours, fine-tuned with less sugar.

Also try the cendol, soft and smooth, a soothing antidote to summery afternoons. Gula Melaka is thoughtfully served on the side if you prefer it sweeter.
