Grab, Menara UOA, Bangsar, KL

Grab was brought to market as a purveyor of coffee and has evolved in its seven months of operation to fulfill requests from its customers, offering breakfast and lunch options. They also operate a brew bar from 3-6pm.





We were recently invited here to check out their offerings. Hubby started off with a cold brew (RM12 per bottle), which is made from Ethiopia Konga Beans (tasting notes: black tea, fruity, vanilla, peaberry). The cold press process takes about 4-5 hours.





Since I am not a coffee drinker, I went for the iced chocolate (RM9). They also serve Smooshies here, as well as gourmet tea from Harney & Sons.



Their menu consists of breakfast items, sandwiches, wraps, croissants, pizzas and salads, as well as some daily specials such as pasta and roasted chicken. We tried some of their bestselling items such as the chunky chicken and mushroom pizza (RM12.90), which was served on a crispy paratha base, Grab club sandwich (RM13.90) with turkey ham, fried egg, cheese, lettuce and tomato as well as the egg and cheese croissant (RM9.90).






What really impressed us were the macarons, some of the best we've tried in KL in terms of texture. They come in several flavours such as salted caramel, Pink lady, matcha and adzuki, pistachio and summer love (mixed berry). Reasonably priced at RM3.80 per piece.


Ma-ma-ma Macarons





Hubby also tried the hand brew coffee (RM15) made with Tanzania beans (tasting notes: black tea, herbs) as well as the affogato (RM12.50) - he really enjoyed the affogato and commented that it was a nice size as well. :)






Opening times: Monday to Fridays only 8am to 8pm. Closed on weekends.

Parking rate: RM4 for first hour, RM3 subsequent hour.

  2. Which of the macarons is least sweet? Pistachio? Salted caramel?

    1. I would say the matcha, as they have a dusting of matcha powder on top (slightly bitter, balances some of the sweetness).
