Major Tom Coffee, Cyberjaya

Major Tom Coffee is Tamarind Square’s new stop for coffee and chocolate, poured with care by a husband-and-wife team.

The monthly-changing pour-over selection currently spotlights coffee from Ethiopia, Kenya, Colombia, Peru and Panama, while the single-origin chocolate comprises three Malaysian varieties like Perak's Bagan Datoh 70% Dark, light and florally clean with warm hints of spice.

Fun fact: The cafe's name is a shoutout to Tom, the founders' cat, with a nod to David Bowie.

Point Break Coffee, Subang Jaya

Point Break Coffee is SS14 Subang’s new compact coffee bar, catching the first wave at 6am with a swell of brews, bagels and banana bread.

Ride the morning current with the Beluga blend for dirty lattes, a Brazilian-Guatemalan triumph that tastes of toasted hazelnuts, brown sugar and dark chocolate. Home-baked cheese-centred bagels and cinnamon-crumbed banana loaves rise with the early tide.

Fun fact: Point Break’s name nods to co-founder David’s passion for surfing in Bali and beyond.

Rehab Pasar Seni

Rehab Pasar Seni is Tun HS Lee Road's new hideout for sourdough muffin stacks, thick and tender with chicken patties, scrambled eggs, streaky beef, caramelised onions, cheddar cheese and garlic mayo. Couple with chocolate coolers topped with salted maple syrup cold foam, honey and cinnamon.
