Unstable Concoction Cafe, Desa Sri Hartamas

Likely launching 11 September, Unstable Concoction is Hartamas’ upcoming experimental cafe, putting a playful spin on its drinks and decor.

Unstable Concoction’s madcap beverage scientists are still brewing up formulations, but clues on their lab walls hint at cold brews with house-made chai mix and luo han guo, espresso with clarified roselle, and curious creations built on cacao nib tea, brown butter cream cheese and more.

The space is unconventional too, fusing a warm vinyl corner with raw concrete edginess, its glass blocks and gleaming metal enlivened by offbeat illustrations that colourfully convey controlled chaos.

Three Little Brick, Steppes Mont Kiara

Three Little Brick is the new spin-off of the city centre’s One Brick Drop, a wide-windowed, welcoming space for lush serenity in Steppes Mont Kiara.

Exclusives to Three Little Brick include modern Japanese creations like crackly katsu prawn ramen in steamy-spicy crustacean broth and crisp-skinned halibut with ikura on creamy tartar, topped with Mediterranean-style veggies.

Manyflow HQ, Klang

Launching this weekend, Manyflow HQ is the architecturally ambitious new flagship of Klang’s prolific family of cafes that spans Moka to Mykro, Maple to Manual, Medium to Midoree, Mofika to Morigin.

Manyflow HQ thoughtfully ties in the cafes’ recurring themes: Sculptures and shelves, slats and shrubs, books and botanicals, ceramics and curves, terracotta and textiles, woven through a warm palette of burnt sienna and honeyed mahogany. Garden landscapes bring a living layer of nature into the calm.

Fun fact: Manyflow HQ marks the M founders’ first foray into Klang’s northern corridor, beyond their Bandar Botanik stronghold. Find them at Omoda & Jaecoo Klang 3S off Jalan Batu Tiga Lama.
