Acme Bar & Coffee @ The TROIKA

The ambiance at Acme Bar & Coffee or ABC reminds me so much of Melbourne. Open spaces with dark fittings and furnishings. The menu also offers a different selection from what most places serve.

Pomegranate and cranberry fizz
Crunchy French Toast
Farmer's Hash
Cempedak cake
In a nutshell, I love this place. Prices are average about 20+ per main. Definitely worth checking out.

Petite Millie @ 1 Utama Shopping Centre

Petite Millie is a French restaurant in 1 Utama's old wing, located just next to Sun Moulin.

There is not much to say about this place except that the food has been AWESOME twice that we've been here. Not many people have eaten/written about this place and I think they deserve more recognition.

Pictures to do the talking:

Bread Platter MYR6.50
Crab & Avocado Tarte Flambee MYR19.50

Emilia's Tagliatelle al Duck Ragu MYR28.50
Poutine Cheek MYR26

Second visit:
Duck salad
Mac & Cheese with Scallops MYR34.50
Millie's Poutinerie MYR22.50
Emilia's Tagliatelle al Duck Ragu (as above) 

We've also tried a Salmon on a bed of crab mash (can't recall the exact name) which was equally delicious. The Poutine is *insert heaven music* ah-mayy-zingg, the sauce was delicious and generous but did not overpower the fries.

My favourite has to be the Mac & Cheese, it was creamy but not cloyingly so and I found myself polishing it off rather easily.

Portions are generous here, none of that tiny sizes on huge plates and the price is affordable too. Both times we did not have room for dessert but I will make it a point to order some the next visit.

Petite Millie also sells bread/macarons and little desserts for takeaway. Definitely a keeper!
