Imagine a cozy cafe nestled in the heart of Penang, a place where every visit feels like a warm hug, and every bite is a celebration of flavors. That’s precisely what you’ll find at The North Cafe, tucked away on Lorong Kinta.
It’s a local gem, a hidden haven for food enthusiasts, and an absolute must-visit for anyone in search of the perfect brunch experience. With their recent change in operating hours (now open from 8am to 4pm, with Wednesdays as a day of rest) and the launch of a tantalizing new brunch menu, there’s never been a better time to indulge in The North Cafe’s offerings.
The North Cafe has a special place in the hearts of locals and tourists alike. It’s not just a cafe; it’s a sanctuary for food lovers. The warm ambiance and the heavenly aromas that waft through the air are sure to make you feel right at home. But what truly sets this cafe apart is its incredible menu, featuring their legendary dacquoise, which has captivated the palates of many. From coffee aficionados to food enthusiasts, The North Cafe has something to delight every visitor.
One of the latest and most exciting developments at The North Cafe is the introduction of their brand-new brunch menu. With extended operating hours, you can now enjoy a leisurely brunch any day of the week. During our recent visit, we had the pleasure of savoring some of their signature dishes, each a symphony of flavors.
The Hungry Chick On Toast is an ode to comfort food. Imagine perfectly fried homemade chicken, enveloped in a savory wholegrain dressing, balanced with the tangy crunch of pickled radish, all nestled between slices of golden milk bread. It’s a harmonious blend of textures and flavors that dance on your taste buds.
For those who crave a hearty breakfast, the Express Breakkie is a revelation. Homemade sausages are grilled to perfection and paired with sautéed mushrooms infused with the earthy truffle aroma. Fluffy scrambled eggs crown the dish, and it’s all lovingly served on slices of golden milk bread. It’s a comforting, indulgent start to your day.
The Spice N’ Eggs dish offers a tantalizing twist on traditional breakfast. Pan-fried shrimps, seared to a succulent perfection, are accompanied by scrambled eggs kissed with homemade spices. All of this is elegantly presented on slices of golden milk bread, creating a delightful fusion of flavors and textures.
To complement our brunch, we savored two distinct beverages:
Coconut Heaven (White) (Cold) – A delightful latte base infused with the sweetness of coconut syrup. It’s crowned with coconut-flavored cream and toasted desiccated coconut, and the homemade crisp adds a delightful, buttery dimension. The result? A refreshing and decadent treat that’s perfect for a tropical brunch.
Oolong Latte (Hot) – A soothing, aromatic oolong tea latte. It’s a perfect choice for those who appreciate the subtlety of flavors in their beverages.
To conclude our unforgettable meal, we couldn’t resist two delectable desserts:
Peanut Butter Blueberry Mille Crepe – Layers of delicate crepes are generously spread with luscious peanut butter and adorned with plump blueberries. It’s a sweet symphony of flavors that’ll make your taste buds sing.
Black Sesame Crumbs Dacquoise – A recent sensation and a must-try. The dacquoise is a crunchy yet delicate delight, with black sesame crumbs infusing each bite with a unique, nutty richness. It’s a hot seller for a reason.
The North Cafe’s menu isn’t just about looks; it’s about the unforgettable taste. With over 20 mains to choose from, there’s something to delight every palate.
