SQUARE Q CAFÉ- I’M NOT A WAFFLE (格子q 咖啡馆 ) @ SOLARIS MONT KIARA






Started off with a humble kiosk at Plaza Mont Kiara which has since spiked the tastebuds of both local and expatriate, Square Q has now expanded its business into a café since last September by accommodating its loyal guests in a much more comfortable dining environment- Square Q Café securing a humble lot at Solaris Mont Kiara.







While it may widely known to many as a dessert place, little did we know that this sleek and vibrant café is also a place to chill out over nice cup of joe, be it espresso based or manual coffee accompanied by toothsome house –baked waffles, desserts and pastries, all within the cozy confine of this Taiwanese-inspired establishments.





What is actually a snack that looks like waffle but not a waffle? (=





The waffles approach adopted by Square Q differs themselves from the rest with its unique texture of crispy on the outside but chewy from the inside. They are made of pure milk with base texture akin to mochi. Final step before they are ready, waffles are dusted with pearl sugar for that beautiful caramelized layer after baked.





Having just launched its enticing Brunch Buffet for only MYR 15 since March, it has been receiving tremendous response with advance booking till May!







Just order any drink and then just top up for MYR 15 which then allows you to the free flow of fresh pastries and confectionaries too.






At times, patrons of Brunch Buffet would also be surprised by new creations such as Tiramisu or Lemon Cheesecakes that would be added on to the array intermittently. Trust me, you gotta be hurry up on this or risk returning back to your seat with an empty plate (=





Lemon cheesecake is undoubtedly alluring with specially tuned recipes by the affable Kong, using A-one ingredients, albeit the heftier cost so long it gives out the best result that the perfectionist desired.






Not forgetting to mention its noteworthy mushroom soup that comes along with the Brunch Buffet too. Trust me, it’s really robust in wide mushroom flavour, smoothen up with some French Cream. Thumbs up!






Great deal here too as these various waffles are also part of the Brunch Buffet too!

Now get ready to sink your teeth into assorted Square Q flavours such as Original (Milk based), Chocolate, Banana, Green Tea, Coffee, Cranberry, Yogurt and Butterscotch- special flavour of the day!





Their forte would have to be the fluffy waffles recipes with the prominent chewiness that resembles mochi subtly. Most ingredients are imported to retain that quality and nuance, such as by using only Japanese glutinous flour in the waffles dishes, Varhona for their chocolate-based beverages and desserts as well as French dairy products for their pastries.





Both kids and adults would definitely enjoy relishing in this array of fresh bakeries!

While yogurts are made inhouse, the coffee beverages are using premium Illy coffee beans, as locals are more associated with dark roasted beans for the stronger body palate.


Say hello to Freddo- special creation from Square Q!
In another words, it means cold espresso.

CAFÉ LATTE FREDDO (MYR 12)
It’s a chilled type of Café Latte but without ice- which is good as I get to sip it slowly and enjoy it without worrying the melting ice cubes diluting my drink. And one exceptional point, it really tastes like draught due to that light foamy layer on the top, interesting!





SINGLE ORIGIN COFFEE PACK BY GROWER’S CUP
Also available in Brazil, Ethiopia, Columbia and Guatemala varietal.





As I prefer something light in between Ethiopian and Brazil beans profile, we decided on Guatemala beans.






Don’t forgot to try out this new way to enjoy coffee conveniently no matter how busy you are, which is hybrid coffee specially brought in from Denmark. It’s pretty cool I would say, also easily manageable and handy wherever you go, travel or just to fix the caffeine craving in between meals whether at office or home. If it works for a filter coffee amateur like me, surely it would for you too. A fuss-free single origin for everyone on the go!




GUATEMALA SINGLE ORIGIN (MYR 15)
Acidic with herbs hint and medium body between Ethiopian and Brazil beans.

It has the ‘lo hon ko’ shade upon first sip and the beautiful aroma stays lingering in your mouth for some time.




Moving on next is something in the pipeline and currently not available in the menu yet, but rest assured is equally promising too. So stay tuned!

Cold Brew using Ethiopian Yirgarcheffe G2 for over 24 hours drip.
It’s brilliant, greets you with a clean palate with fruity notes. I have always enjoyed this way of brewing, perfect for sultry days of late.





Or espresso shot for the purist (=





Special thanks to Kong for the wonderful sharing on the coffee discernment that has further enlightened me in numerous ways. For someone who once a milk-based coffee aficionado, I have since now garnered a better perceptivity on these charming beans and loves its au naturel appreciation even more! A convert emerging from sampling soon? May be (=

And if you are planning to throw a special occasion for 6-8 pax, you may also reserve in advance for a private room at no additional charge.





Affordable lunch sets are also available throughout the weekdays too!





You may of course try to catch them at Plaza Mont Kiara on every Thursday, but chances are you might be let down  for unable to get your hands on those crispy and fluffy waffles for they are really selling like hot cakes- usually the products would sold off before office hours end. So, to avoid disappointment, it seems to be a wiser decision to visit this café instead and enjoy your tête-à-tête session sensuously as you unwind your day unhurriedly.
