Café Barbera Outing

frostier / People and Places, The Love of Food / Cafe Barbera, Food Review, Sunway Pyramid / 4 Comments

Because of my interest in the Sugarbun Food Review session, I was cordially invited to Cafe Barbera, Sunway Pyramid on 28th Nov 2011 which falls on a Monday; a Public Holiday. So I would like to thank Shannon Chow for the invites.

A little background of this Café Barbera.

• has more than 140 years of coffee perfection
• originated from South Italy
• A family business
• The unique concept of Cafe Barbera is based on it’s selection of exceptional coffees, current food trends and a consumer demand
• provides a venue to relax in, a warm & inviting yet elegant dining experience

Before continuing with the details of the food, do note there are 2 promotions running. One of them ending soon

First of all, I never liked Sunway Pyramid. I always think the place confusing. Traveling there for a food review is fine. However, the attempt to get an empty car parking lot seems to be an uphill task. It took me almost an hour to find a spot. Gosh, I wonder who goes to Pyramid. Technically I can deduct these patrons are from either Putra Heights or Kota Kemuning people. No life around there is it?

Anyway, that’s not the main point of this post. The main point is here.

The place is situated far towards the left side of the Pyramid – just outside of Parkson. Hence, geographically it doesn’t do much justice because who on Earth will drive up all the way jamming inside the Pyramid carpark just for the food? Somehow it will still ended up as an option for the patrons when they decided what to dine. I almost got frustrated just to look for the place. *pulls hair*

Yet, another selling point here is the price point. Somehow it is reasonable and worth for money. Yes with the reasonable portion. Not to stuff you full till food coma tho’ – A menu screenshot is attached below for comparison.

Straight to the food.

For starters, one cannot miss out the Rolled Smoked Duck Salad. It is just so juicy that reminds me of the Chinese New Year sang choi.

I personally like these two. The spring roll is superb with the cheese portion just suffice to make you want more of it.

Lastly the awesome pasta. Maybe I am bias but you ought to try out their pasta – especially the prawn aglio olio!

In a summary:-
+ Service
+ Ambiance
+ Price
+ Food
- Small portion
- It’s in Pyramid (but there are few options to go to)
