Sometimes all we need to do is sit back and relax in a really cosy and nice eatery like Vine Cafe to savour a delicious hearty meal and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea with selection imported from Blooms Roastery & Craft Tea Hong Kong.

At the Vine Cafe in The Starling Mall, the menu is vast with savoury and sweet creations which is something to look forward to if you are into Western cuisine. At Vine Cafe, a family-style restaurant, diners can enjoy a pork-free selection of delectable dishes that include pasta, burgers, sandwiches, pizza, salads, breakfast spread, mains and dessert.

The cafe is based on the Loft Style concept, with the simplistic charm of minimalism, offering an ambience that is appealing especially to younger patrons and family with young children.

So... what's good to eat here? I sampled a total of 15 dishes during the tasting session and most of the dishes fare pretty well to my taste and liking. I would feature and choose my 'Favourite Top 8' of Vine Cafe that you should try if you are visiting them for the first time.
  
Salad
Summer Sweet & Sour
RM 20

Let's kick start our meal with a vegan and guilt-free starter with  Summer Sweet & Sour Salad. Fresh rocket salad, tomatoes and watermelon served together with mandarin orange for the added sweetness,  almond flakes for the crunchy bite and feta cheese crumble for the added saltiness in pomegranate reduction for the dressing. 


Looks amazingly colourful and appealing, and taste good to the last bite, highly recommended for those fruit lovers.

From The Garden
RM 16

Next, on the list ~ From The Garden Salad, this tangy combination of mesclun salad mix with red radish, black olive, tomatoes and capsicum with zesty pomegranate vinaigrette dressing will get you to zoom into a zippy mood!

Main Course
Chicken Roulade
RM 25

The highlight for me was the Chicken Roulade, priced at RM 25 only. Vin Cafe's signature Chicken Roulade,  a fully-flavoured dish of thickly sliced and marinated boneless chicken stuffed with turkey ham, spinach, mushroom and cheese with tamarind sauce and potato Lyonnais.

Hearty chicken dish, the chef is generous with the portion and flavours, delighting your senses with the sweet plums flavour sauce that comes with it. I particularly liked the pairing of the silky smooth sweet sauce with the tender and juicy meat. Highly recommended, a must-try for chicken lovers and yes, the portion is good for sharing with 2 persons.

Prawn Aglio Olio Squid Ink Spaghetti
RM 28

Crunchy, firm, crisp texture when you first bite into the plump prawns!

My top pick for their pasta dishes have to be the Prawn Aglio Olio Squid Ink Spaghetti -  a combination of silky black squid ink spaghetti served with prawn toasted with garlic and chilli flakes. The pasta was flavourful with the crunchy and firm prawn. The addition of red, green bell peppers and cherry tomatoes helped to enhance the overall flavour of the dish.

Nachos
RM 28


Get your kick of Mexican food at Vine Cafe with the appetising and colourful dish of nachos. The all-Mexican favourite snack of nachos comprised of corn tortilla crisp topped with tomato salsa, sour cream and Mozzarella cheese. The light tortilla chips tasted excellent when eaten together with the flavourful beef con carne.

The nachos makes an excellent appetiser, totally guilt-free snack, especially when dining with a group of friends.  I only wished they serve a bigger bowl of the beef con carne to go with the tortilla. 


PIZZA
Beefy-Licious Meat Lova Lova
RM 34

Top choice pizza for the carnivores got to be this Meat Lova Lova Pizza. Pack with a punch and loaded with the beefy goodness of beef ragout, roasted beef, beef bacon, beef pepperoni with a combination of onion rings, capsicum and black olive. Unlike traditional round and thick crusted pizzas, the pizzas at Vine Cafe are made with a thin crust that makes it a good option when eating with this meat-laden pizza. 

Seafood-licious Marinara
RM 37 

SEAFOOD HAVOC! If you love the combination of prawn, squid, mussels, crab meat and fish roe toppings with mozzarella cheese on your pizza, then this is the perfect dish for you.

When the pizza arrives at our tables, we could smell the strong aroma of the Marinara sauce topped with the rich gooey mozzarella. The pizza was superb with the crisp thin oven-baked crust.  

Seafood fans bound to fall in love with this mouth-watering delightful seafood pizza!

BBQ Beef Burger
RM 27

Another notable dish is Vine Cafe's BBQ Beef Burger - Meat eaters will love the perfectly grilled handmade gourmet beef patty with BBQ sauce, sauteed mushroom, caramelized onion, tomatoes, lettuce and topped with American cheddar cheese. I believe this well-executed beef burger that is wider than a human jaw would be popular with the beef lovers.

Meanwhile, Vine Cafe offers a plethora of flavourful dishes and rich desserts of high standards of quality, service and cleanliness as well as freshly cooked-to-order dishes, tea and coffee made by well-trained baristas.  Following are the rest of dishes that Vine Cafe has to offer on their menu.

Chocolate Dome

The culinary experience is not complete without the dessert. To end the meal on a sweet note, chef brought out his yet-to-be introduced new signature Chocolate Dome dessert. Chocolate lover must not miss this yummy melt-in-mouth dessert. A chocolate dome served with strawberry ice cream and brownie hidden within.

The hot chocolate sauce is poured over the dome quickly thus melting it to reveal the treats inside. Do eat them fast though, because the strawberry ice cream melting really fast with the hot chocolate sauce on top.
