105c Coffeehaus @ Jalan Pintu Sepuluh, Alor Setar

Located in Jalan Pintu Sepuluh,105c Coffeehaus is one of the latest spots to chill out in Alor Setar. 105c Coffeehaus stands out as compared to other restaurants and cafes due to its striking modern red-brick double-storey building, spacious environment, and relaxed vibe. It's easy to locate this place, just drive along the main road of Jalan Pintu Sepuluh and you will find this place right next to Starcity Hotel. Food-wise, they offer a variety of Western foods with desserts and gelato. Probably due to the first few days' jitters, the service quality is below par and has room for improvements.

Though the menu features mostly Western dishes, there are a handful of local delights as well. We had the Big Breakfast (RM29), one of the most ordered items... its portion was quite small for its price. Only a half-side of muffin, jumbo sausage, hashbrown, cold baked beans, salad, and "scrambled egg" were served. The most disappointed us was the "scrambled egg" as mentioned on the menu, in my cognition, I thought the scrambled egg should be soft and creamy. Don't you think it looks more like fried eggs?

Taste: 6.0 (1 bad → 10 good)

The Stuffed Chicken (RM20) was crispy outside and tender inside. Nonetheless, the ham was not stuffed well, it was separated from the chicken when served. Mashed potato-wise, it was rather tasteless, and it was even served cold like baked beans. The worst part is that it took about an hour to be served. Mini muffins (RM 17.90) were alright but not something significant. In a nutshell, 105c Coffeehaus might not be the perfect place for a meal but good enough for a casual meet-up or a place to have your quick caffeine fix.
