Alcea Coffee, Cyberjaya


Named for the alcea flower, beloved by the wife of Alcea Coffee's co-founder, this is one of Cyberjaya's top stops for thoughtfully brewed coffee.


Sip on a Ethiopian Ayehu pour-over, relying on naturally processed beans from a sustainability-practising farm, beautifully light and pleasant, with official tasting notes of strawberry, rose and chestnuts (RM20). Alcea's filter coffee prices range from RM15 (Ijen Plateau, Indonesia) to RM58 (Boquete, Panama); if you're fortunate, the baristas might have a small sampler glass at hand for you.

Prefer espresso-based coffee? Try the creamy-smooth, noticeably nutty flat white, a single-origin Brazilian from the Fazenda de Lagoa plantation that's meant to convey dark chocolate dynamics (RM12).



Customers can't live on coffee alone - banish hunger with the mutton curry fettuccine, featuring meat and pasta that both prove tender, with the fettuccine richly absorbing the curry's flavours (RM18).
