Waffles are no doubt a versatile dessert. You can eat them plain, topped them with ice cream or other add-ons or even turn them into a savoury dish. Here are the 8 best places to enjoy delicious waffles in Klang Valley!
1) Cafe 5
Pudu is often associated with local Chinese cuisines such as wantan mee, siew yoke (roasted pork) and steamed fish. But somewhere within the Pudu area lies an unlikely little cafe called Cafe 5. This cafe is known for serving authentic Belgian Liege waffle. Their waffle is made using old-fashioned yeast fermentation technique for more than 20 hours. Apparently, such method is to retain the waffle’s natural texture and flavour. It even has no preservative and artificial flavouring, making this a healthier choice than your regular waffle. Some of their recommended Belgian Liege waffles include “PB Bunk” (waffles with chocolate peanut butter and bananas) and “Murakami” (waffles with flamed takoyaki sauce, Japanese mayonnaise & spices and bonito flakes). For sharing purposes, it’s highly recommended to sample their “Willy Wonka” — which consists of waffles with Belgian chocolate fondue, strawberries, bananas, marshmallows and 3 scoops of ice creams.

2) New Chapter By The Owls Cafe
If you’ve been to New Chapter By The Owls Cafe near Bukit Jalil before, you will come across two names in their waffles menu: “Rebecca” and “David”. Those names weren’t just randomly picked because they sound catchy. They are, in fact, two waffles named after the owners of this cafe. Not surprisingly, the “Rebecca” waffle turns out to be a fan favourite. And it’s easy to see why: a waffle packed with cut fruits like bananas and strawberries. Then, there’s a scoop of homemade Earl Grey ice cream on top alongside a sprinkle of almond & coconut flakes and maple syrup complete this yummy-licious waffle you can’t afford to miss.
