Flat White

I would like to thank my buddy, Yuheng from Jaben that brought me to this awesome café located in the heart of SS15 Subang Jaya. Flat White is probably one of the earlier cafes established in SS15 before the whole café craze started. Flat white is a rather cozy café which could get quite noisy during peak hours. They have two sections of seating area, the non-​smoking and smoking section which is very thoughtful of them.
Their breakfast meals is actually quite good and so is their coffee as well. If it’s not due to the fact that it’s almost impossible to get a parking in this area, Flat White is definitely one of my favourite cafes to visit. Other than that, I find that they have a good environment for more informal business meetings as the place is quite conducive for a good conversation.

I’ve been here a few times with friends and I like how cosy this café is. This place is perfect if you want to catch up with a friend over cakes and coffee. This café (it’s located on the second floor) gives you the choice to choose between seating at the smoking or non smoking area which is great.
Their workers are also friendly (and I’ve seen cute ones too!). I really like the Nutella cappuccino here as they’re quite generous with the Nutella. The peanut butter mocha is slightly too rich for my taste and the cakes here are pretty mediocre. But do ask the barista for a recommendation as they seem to know quite a bit about their coffee. If you’re not up for any of those, go straight for the flat white as that’s what they’re known for anyway! Overall, I think this is a great place to chill.

To get to Flat white, it only takes 20 steps to awesome coffee… according to the «Flat White» signage which you will not miss if you walk along ss15’s row that’s the same as Starbucks. From the entrance, you literally take 20 steps up to go to Flat white. It’s a simple set up café that’s situated upstairs which is super cool because most coffee shop around town are in the lower unit so this definitely makes it stand out among other. Although this place is for coffee junkies, when I’m here I end up ordering the hot chocolate which is the bomb. The amount of milk they put in the drink is just nice that the chocolate drink doesn’t taste too thick from chocolate, but very mild and more to the milk side.

«Flat White» — I don’t know about you guys but everytime I heard these words, it always reminds me of Taylor White. She’s white and she’s flat. Sorry but this review is not about her. It’s not even about somebody who is flat and white. It’s all down to a café that located at the most crowded place in Subang Jaya, SS15.
I’m not a coffee person. That’s because I’m not a morning person. You can blame my unhealthy sleeping cycle upon that. Yeah, after spent tons of insisting and forcing, my friend finally got to persuade me to go for a coffee here at Flat White. This café is located upstairs on the first floor and once again I had to against another thing that I dislike the most — the stairs.
Well, it wasn’t that bad actually. They got some kind of graffity+doodle on the wall. The painting are so beautiful as it makes me completely ignored the stairs. Once I reached the café, I asked my friend to get the closest seat to the entrance. Running out of breath. Damn you stamina.
Luckily, it didn’t take long for me to settle down. The surrounding were so perfect. The interior and coziness did makes me sleepy. My friend did all the orders while I’m resting on the chair like a boss. She got me mocha. One thing you should know about me, I may loves all the carbonate drinks but I can’t stand with the sweetness in tea, coffee or ‘Milo’.
I saw the menu list on the wall. They provide breakfast as well. I hope they still serving breakfast at noon because that’s the start of a day for me. I guess the price range here is kinda reasonable considering this place is a hips café. I can’t comment on the coffee but one thing for sure, I will be back for the environment. Plus, I saw there was a cute girl that sat few tables away from me.

I would like to thank my many caffeine addict friends for dragging me around the jam infested areas of SS15 to pay visit to Flat white (Sarcasm). Located directly opposite Asia Café, not far from Taylors and INTI College, expect a slew of students to be lounging around, with their laptops and overpriced smartphones. Needless to say, for parking, I wish you good luck. The setting is a mixture of the utilization of wood and brick with classic coffeehouse blackboard and chalk menus. Worth noting is their Flat White is priced at a lower than usual rate of RM8, thumbs up for a gimmick that actually saves customer cost. A decent assortment of cakes and savory meals fill up the rest of the menu, but other than a cheaper cup of Flat White, nothing really strikes you off the bat that would create an inclination to pay regular visits to this café

This place was introduced to me by one of the team writers, Jon. We work together in a couple of stuffs and since he resides in Subang, I told him to suggest me a café to work at. So that’s how I got here!
You have to climb up approximately 20 steps up before reaching the café. It’s located in one of the shop lots around the corner from Starbucks and right opposite Asia Café. The first thing I noticed when I climbed the steps were interesting paintings on the wall (see photo). And as I walked in, the store is separated into two sections — inside and outside. The outside seating isn’t too bad: you’ll get a lovely view of the street below and the open «café» across.
I met Daeng, the store manager, during my first visit. What a wonderful guy! It was a pleasure talking to him and really, if you do pop by, spare 5 minutes in talking with this guy. He’s really lovely. Obviously I think it would be blasphemy if I’d ordered anything else but a Flat White.
There’s free Wifi in the café and the place is relatively quiet during non-​peak hours. Peak hours tend to fall during post lunch and dinner sessions where mainly youngsters (teenagers and young adults) would drop in for a cuppa.
Parking around this place is a hassle! SS15 is one of the worst places to seek for a parking spot. I would recommend you to park somewhere at the housing areas across the SS15 site and walk over here via the bridge access. That would save you so much time from circling around the area. There’s a parking lot nearby actually however despite the fact that you’re paying to enter does not guarantee that you’ll find a spot. And you have to pay the parking fee upfront as well. Feels like a rip off to me during peak hours! I think during this instance, you gotta ask yourself that Clint Eastwood line: «You got to ask yourself one question — do I feel lucky?»
My suggestion, come over during the non peak hour period (meaning during lunch and/​or dinner time) and enjoy the space as much as you can with less crowd. And find a way if you can invent a teleportation system so you can get here without going through the parking hassle.
