While cakes are the main highlight, Le Chouchou also serves a solid menu of homemade pastries, hot brunch items, and fine coffee. The menu isn't overly overwhelming, but it offers just the right variety for a quick bite or a relaxed afternoon tea.

Breakfast Pastries & Refreshing Drinks

We kicked off our morning session with a few baked treats and handcrafted drinks:

Croissant 

RM 8

Croissant: Golden-brown and beautifully laminated with crisp, flaky layers on the outside and a buttery, soft interior.

Quiche Lorraine 

RM 15

Quiche Lorraine: A savory tart featuring a delicate, fluted pastry crust filled with a rich, silky egg custard, savory bits, and baked cherry tomatoes on top.

Beverages: We paired our pastries with a Hot Cappuccino (RM 14) featuring smooth foam art, a vibrant glass of Fresh Orange Juice (RM 16), and an Iced Dark Chocolate (RM 16)—a decadent choice crafted with premium French Valrhona cocoa powder, served over a rich chocolate base.

Hearty Brunch Plates

For something a bit more substantial, their brunch dishes are both satisfying and beautifully plated:

Tuna Avocado Salad 

RM 28

 

Tuna Avocado Salad: A vibrant, mountain-high bed of fresh mixed greens, arugula, cherry tomatoes, and pomegranate seeds, topped with creamy sliced avocado and a generous mound of seasoned tuna.

Creamy Chicken on Rex Milano Bread

RM 28

Creamy Chicken on Rex Milano Bread: Tender, savory chicken folded in a rich mushroom cream sauce, served over thick, toasted slices of Rex Milano bread and blanketed under a layer of golden, torch-melted cheese.

Smoked Salmon Egg Benedict with Sourdough

RM 38

Smoked Salmon Egg Benedict with Sourdough: Crusty artisan sourdough topped with generous ribbons of smoked salmon, perfectly poached eggs, a golden drizzle of sauce, and a delicate tangle of fresh microgreens.

Comforting Pasta Mains

If you're swinging by for lunch, their hot pasta options offer classic comfort:

Aglio Olio With Grilled Chicken

RM 26.90

Aglio Olio With Grilled Chicken: Perfectly cooked spaghetti tossed with garlic, herbs, and juicy cherry tomatoes, served alongside a tender, beautifully seared chicken breast infused with aromatic herbs.

Carbonara With Beef Bacon 

RM 30.90

Carbonara With Beef Bacon: Silky spaghetti coated in a rich, velvety cream sauce cooked with premium Grana Padano cheese, generously tossed with crispy, savory strips of beef bacon and a dusting of herbs.

Sweet Ends & Artisanal Desserts

No visit to Le Chou Chou Café is complete without sampling owner John Tan’s handcrafted cakes! We tried a trio of their gorgeous 3" mini creations:

Strawberry Shortcake

RM 28.30

Strawberry Shortcake [FollowMeToEatLa Top Pick!]: This was the absolute star of the dessert table and my top favorite! Crafted with an airy, pillowy sponge base, it’s layered with a velvety cream that strikes just the right sweet note without overpowering the palate. 

Finished with fresh-sliced strawberries, crushed berries, and tied with a sweet, rustic string, this dessert was pure perfection. It was so delicious and light that I honestly could have devoured the entire 3" cake single-handedly! 

Opera Cake 

RM 25.30

Opera Cake: An elegant, multi-layered chocolate delight coated in a crunchy chocolate glaze, piped with rich coffee cream, and decorated with chocolate music notes and fresh blueberries.

Tiramisu 

RM 25.30

Tiramisu: A sophisticated classic featuring light layers infused with coffee notes and dusted with cocoa.

Final Verdict

All in all, I had a wonderfully peaceful dining experience at Le Chou Chou Café. Between the great brunch options, aromatic coffee, fresh sandwiches, and artisanal pastries, it's a place where you can easily lose track of time relaxing with friends (or your furry companions!).
