#DINEWITHME - FRANCO, THE CURVE (MUTIARA DAMANSARA)

"What's for dinner tonight?".

The multi-million dollar question arises again. Looking at each other, we then laughed. 

Walking round and about to figured out which restaurant to dive in, my brother and I came across FRANCO - A French Japanese Artisan Cafe; crafted with Japanese precision and embodying French perfection. The cafe is hipster and cozy just perfect for that quick lunch or lazy weekend dinner. 


We both settled down at a table on the outdoor area, noticing there are also an indoor dining area with air-conditioned. The waitress was rather quick to notice and approached us even before we raise up our hand and call for their service. The menu here is pretty much simple and the real highlights here are the desserts. If you're a sweet-tooth nor dessert maniac, here's the right place to be! 















Since it's a rainy day, a pot of hot Chamomile tea is just perfect for the evening. I was quite impressed being served with chamomile flower buds instead of infused tea bag. Most often than not, cafes only serve a pot/glass of hot water with tea bag and it was rather rare for a commercial cafe to serve this way nowadays. I give them a "Like" for this!

Pretty excited to try out their french toast, we ordered a portion. Franco French Toast is so damn good. I would say, it's the best french toast I've tasted in KL so far. Stacks of super tender eggy bread chunks, dusted with icing sugar and served with maple syrup and a huge dollop of whipped cream; so rich and creamy! Ahh...It was just too good to be true! The french toast wasn't too sweet and the combination is just perfect. Good for sharing (Consists of 10 chunks).

An absolute must-have! Don't ask, just order!

Since my brother wanted a pasta dish, we tried out the Carbonara. I heart this pasta, as it's not over creamy and the bacon slices compliment the whole dish with a touch of eye candy - an egg yolk in the middle. "Poke the yolk with the fork!". That's the first thing that ran into my mind.

I really wanted to try out the Squid Ink Rice, but just because I do not want to end up having black teeth, I gave up. Instead, I replaced my order with Souffle Au Franco. It takes a minimum time of 20 minutes for the dish to be served on your table. To my advice, if you are extremely hungry and lost your patience on waiting, do not attempt to order this dish. 

The dish is so rich on it's topping, flowing with egg and cheese goodness. Hidden beneath the souffle are mushrooms, tomato rice and etc. One huge portion that is good enough to makes your stomach explodes.

sauteed rice that's right underneath


The overall dining experience here is good and I will definitely come back again. Apart from the food and drinks are satisfying, their services are excellent too. 

My aim for next visit - Chocolate Souffles

A Taste of Tradition and Modernity: My 8-Days Journey Through Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a city that captivates with contrasts — where glittering skyscrapers meet colonial charm, and time-honored cuisine shares the table with global culinary trends. My return flight was made even more seamless and comfortable with Cathay Pacific , a world-class airline that embodies the spirit of Hong Kong, thanks to the generous sponsorship from  Immersive Hong Kong.
