After a long time of lockdown and staying at home, we finally can go out and get a nice brunch. I decided to visit Flakes for a delicately deserved brunch. Flakes is a cafe located in The Hub SS2. The Flakes cafe revolves around croissants, Australian inspired brunches and coffee.
Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic and to keep social distancing, I have to scan a QR code to preview the menu, make our orders and payment by self. However, on the e-menu, you will get brunch dishes, pasta, rice don and some other tasty desserts. Besides that, at the counter, there are also displayed cakes and croissants. Plain croissants have shown up in all their brunch dishes. Among so many other brunch dishes, I had chosen one of the best-selling dishes which is The Pulled Bell Chicken.
-The Pulled Bell Chicken RM23
The Pulled Bell Chicken was a recommended dish and also a crowd favourite. It served in a toasted croissant, along with pulled chicken breast, diced bell pepper with harissa dressing and pumpkin purée. The pulled chicken breast is soft and flavoursome as the pulled chicken breast coated with diced bell pepper with harissa. The toasted croissant is crunchy and fresh. Well, a plain toasted croissant might be a common plain dish without any other food add-in, but add in some pulled chicken breast with diced bell pepper with harissa dressing on it, now that is unique and rare. It may not be everyone’s cuppa tea, but it is definitely mine!!! So, overall it was a lip-smacking dish that is really worth trying!
- Smoked Duck Carbonara RM24
I also had the Smoked Duck Carbonara, the authentic carbonara that served with mushrooms, onion confit and topped with smoked duck. It was nice and simple. The Flakes are very generous in terms of the proportion of the meal and the amount of the smoked duck meat given in a single dish. There were about 4 to 5 pieces of smoked duck meat and the size of them were big enough. I really like the consistency of the past as the pasta was well cooked, not too hard and not too soft. If you are a smoked duck lover, this Smoked Duck Carbonara was a recommended dish for you!
- Iced Blue Chocolate RM14 & Iced Matcha Latte RM13
In general, I really love anything with chocolate in it, so it’s not a surprise that I ordered this drink. Initially, due to blueberries, I was a bit reluctant to order this Iced Blue Chocolate drink because blueberry and chocolate both of them are quite rich flavours, and I kinda worried that they would melt together and they would taste weird. After a sip of the drink, it has a tasteful taste in it. The ice chocolate was really nice and thick with blueberry bits in it. I really enjoyed having this drink.
I also ordered Iced Matcha Latte. It much likely tastes like a Cafe Latte mixing with Matcha. It will have a milk texture in it and will also have a green tea taste with a natural sweetness. So, it should have a vegetal lingering aftertaste. I really like it as it is not too sugary but it tastes just rightly. Matcha lovers are highly recommended to order the drink as it is really flavourful and you will never unlike it.
