Fun place - Edit
The vibes, pastries and options are really great and you'll wish you arrived more hungry so you could eat even more of the menu!
Read moreIn my opinion the actual food is a little bit less good than at the hungry tapir, but still an incredible spot.

cant help but love this place - Edit
I've been here a lot because their food is really delicious and also special, they have some flavour combos i havent had before. also their drinks are nice and the ambiente and interior really seals the deal. i will say one thing, we once got the sweet croissants from the dessert shelf and they were quite dry, bummer. the other things always were really good

A complete vegan restaurant - Edit
We went to this place twice, first as a takeout for just a simple dessert and second for a full dinner. The place has very cool sitting area and good vibes. Outdoor seating as well. Lots alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and beverages. Lots of meals and desserts as well. If we thought THT which is literally a minute or two away was good, this is even better. First the desserts.
Read moreMango Cheesecake - the best cheesecake we have ever had vegan or not. And this is not understatement. The cashew cheesecake didn’t taste cashewy and was perfect sweet and mango was just mind-blowing. The Pain Au Chocolat good.
The Dark Rich Chocolate Cake was divine. The Tiramisu was it was meant to be. Rich cream, coffee and lady finger cookie type base. Just amazing and to die for.
Steak and Mashed Potatoes with mixed greens and BBQ sauce was good. Steak was good and had a unique stringy texture. Mashed Potatoes very good.
The Diwali Thaali was a surprise that it was still available and was not in the menu, however the server suggested and we went for it. The mutton rendang was amazing. The rest of the curries very good and they were spicy - South Indian/Sri Lankan spicy. The vegan yogurt was something else. Never had vegan yogurt so close to the real thing. Some curries a bit greasy.
I hate going to restaurants like these! I want to try everything on the menu and I can’t in one or two visits. Wish it wasn’t 15k Kms from us.

Service was meh- - Edit
I’ll preface this with it being a holiday- lunar new year. It’s busy. We made a reservation and received a table outside which wasn’t great. We never received cups but were pointed to self service water, I ordered a dessert appetizer to eat while we wait knowing it would be a wait and never received it. Had to reorder the dessert 30 minutes later. It came with food.
Read moreFood was delish so I’m giving it 3 stars.
The staff was likely overwhelmed.
Bathroom was located in the hotel next door.
Other location is much better.
Pros: Good food
Cons: Minimal service , No bathrooms

My new favourite resto - Edit
The vibe itself was worth the visit. Pretty in pink and pumping with jazz music—it was so chill! I wish I was based in KL so I could come by again. The food was outstanding. We had the banoffee pie (incredible), espresso cake and the “bacon and cheese” pastry. The flavours were fantastic! The staff were also lovely. I hope I can return! :,))
Read morePros: Everything, but especially the Banoffee pie
Cons: That it isn’t where I live

Fancy - Edit
Trendy bar in the center of Kuala Lumpur. There are various seats, both inside and outside the place. Young and chic atmosphere. Friendly staff who speak English. Not too extensive menu but with choices for all tastes. Good food slightly expensive. I found it too salty for my taste, portions ok. Overall a positive experience, I would recommend it and would go back, maybe not every day.

Best vegan croissants ever!! The Pain Au Chocolat and cinnamon bun was so fresh and straight out of the oven. We went here practically everyday it was just too delicious! The hardest part was choosing what to order because everything was amazing. I highly recommend this cafe seriously the best vegan restaurant in KL😊 also don’t skip out on the sunny days bagel or pizza both were outstanding!

Located in Chinatown - Edit
I saw on Happy Cow’s Instagram that this place serves one of the best vegan croissants, so of course, I had to try it – and it did not disappoint! The croissant was delicious, not overly sweet, with just the right balance. The breakfast selection was amazing and super creative; I could’ve happily tried everything on the menu. The decor was also very cool and added to the unique vibe of the place. I just wish we had a restaurant like this in Germany.

Disappointing - Edit
After an amazing meal at The Hungry Tapir, we decided to go to La Gula the next day for lunch. I am a hater of vegan cheese so I ordered one of the few menu items which didn’t mention containing fake cheese: Mr Rodrigo’s Deli, a ‘pastrami’ sandwich which said it came with “pickled red onions, mustard and gherkins”. Unfortunately what arrived contained a lot of vegan mayo, slabs of fake cheese and a very unappetising blue-dyed sauce. I picked out the pastrami pieces and left the rest. We also ordered a side of shoestring fries but they hadn’t arrived by the time we had finished eating and were ready to leave, so we had to ask for them to be removed from the bill (bearing in mind it was lunchtime and they weren’t especially busy). To drink I had the green juice which was unexpectedly small and some of which spilled due to the table being very wobbly.

Amazing desserts - Edit
We came to La gula multiple times, they have a great variety as everything is vegan, I especially loved their scone with blueberry cream. We also tried their pizza, wonton noodles, biscoff croissant and so much more

Delicious Brunch - Edit
We came here earlier in our Malaysia trip and decided to return for another brunch.
Read moreMy partner had the rendang croissant and really enjoyed it. The rendang had loads of mushrooms and the sauce was creamy and flavoursome. The croissant was flaky and crisp on the outside.
I had the sunny days bagel, which contained a fried egg, ham, and cream cheese. I was worried the cream cheese might be a little sweet, but it wasn't at all and didn't overpower the other flavours. The meaty slices were excellent. I loved the texture of the egg, but wish it had a yolk and an eggy taste. It felt like it only really contributed to the texture. It was really delicious and I only wish it had been bigger!
My partner had a mocktail, the cranberries, which he really enjoyed, it was fizzy, fruity, and sweet. I had the oat of this world smoothie, which is thick and tasty but could have been a bit colder.
I also had a slice of chocolate mousse cake, which was basically a chocolate cheesecake. It was rich and delicious! I wish the biscuit base had been a little thicker, but no real complaints.
The music was too loud, at one point it felt like the bass was reverberating through my body. It's not the experience I'm looking for at lunchtime! Besides that, service is great and it's a really light and airy spot.

Tasty food with lots of options - Edit
For breakfast I had the see-food sambol croissant. This had bits of mock prawns and konjac squid that were coated in batter and in a sweet and spicy sauce. This was all stuffed into a heated sliced croissant. It was an enjoyable dish, I liked the textures of the mock sea food but I didn't think there was a huge difference between the two. The croissant was good and flaky and a bit sweet. The whole thing was very tasty but just a touch too sweet.
Read moreMy partner got the LaGula big brekkie and it lived up to its name. The sausage was excellent, it was well fried with a good crispness to the outside and was delicious and meaty. The ricotta cheez we think was in a square croquette form and tasted very much like a smooth potato filling (it was tasty). The scramble was pleasant, not particularly eggy but it had a good texture and taste. The mushrooms were good, they were well cooked and seasoned. The beans didn't really work very well, they were very heavily flavoured with dill and that didn't really fit with that rest of the dish.
The oat of this world smoothies were delicious. They were really thick and sweet and felt like quite a decadent treat.
Takeaway... The no bacon or egg pie was the highlight. It was a big hearty slice generously filled with lots of pastrami and cooked onions, we didn't really get much of an eggy flavour or texture to it though. It's a shame we had it cold as I'd really like to have seen how it was when warm and a bit crispier.
The Cheez sausage with croissant probably would have been better if heated too. The sausage was tasty but there didn't seem like much cheese, maybe on heating and melting it would have seemed more plentiful. This was tasty but the filling was just concentrated down the centre so most of it was just plain croissant. Maybe it would have been better to be sliced and have the sausages put in more like a sandwich.
The biscoff croissant was good. The croissant is well made and flavoured and it was sliced and filled with a layer of biscoff spread. The almond croissant was similar, it had a sweet almond spread on top and inside along with lots of flaked almonds - it was a bit too sweet.
The pain au chocolat was too bready and didn't have a good pastry texture. There wasn't a lot of chocolate filling so most of it was very dry. The cinnamon bun wasn't great. It could have been a bit flakier or crispier but it was all very soft. The flavour of the filling had a bit of a strange taste so it didn't work for me.
Cons: Offers breakfast but doesn't open until 10am
