Dining out: Dabbsy's Cafe

By: Unknown on Sunday, October 30, 2011

One of my favourite hangout when I got tired of working from the 4 walls of my room is Dabbsy's Cafe @ Valencia, Sungai Buloh. It doesn't boast an impressive environment but a cosy and quiet cafe to get some work done. Sometimes I try to update myself with some overseas reading material from their magazine rack, probably left behind by their customers, they have a wide range of magazines from auto to  high society. On weekends you can also enjoy the al fresco dining experience under the huge shady trees and umbrella to relax for the rest of your weekends.

They serve perhaps the best mash potatoes here. I always prefer mash potatoes with a bit of milky taste but here they put a huge dollop of butter on your mash giving it a really creamy and smooth texture.

So far I have brought 2 girlfriends here on 2 different occasions and they love the food here too. One of them especially love the pumpkin soup, saying that the soup is thick and yummy. I'm glad to have found this little gem in the area where I live without driving too far out.

The downside of this place is the lack of a better service. One of their waitresses is a bit clumsy and slow with orders, at times I feel like she is trying to avoid doing extra work especially when the boss is not around.

I remember that not too long ago it was also the Rugby World Cup and the cafe will turn into a little pub with a lot of expats that live in this area crowding together to cheer for their team over beers and finger foods. On every first Tuesday of the month, a British expat ladies club will hold a gathering for chit chatting among members.

Unfortunately I'm not sure if outsider is able to come in this place because Valencia is a gated living environment and it's a residents only place.
