What recent reviews say

Lolla Paluza wins loyalty through freshly made waffles, rich ice cream, and a calm hideaway feel above Sea Park's street level. The owner runs the space daily and remembers regulars warmly; staff go the extra mile, and the space doubles as a quiet work spot or event venue with books and board games on hand.

Prices on the menu can be outdated, and some felt a recent waffle price hike or fruit quality didn't justify the cost, but most flag the portions as generous and the flavours as balanced rather than over-sweet. Best for people seeking a slower pace, not high-speed cafe culture.

Bröom draws crowds for its striking aesthetic and excellent pastries, with reviewers consistently praising the visuals, sourdough, croissants, and coffee. The space feels welcoming and calm, and most staff interactions are warm. However, mains disappoint compared to baked goods, vegan claims mask poor knowledge, and occasional service coldness or operational slip-ups (closing early, spilled affogatos, gravel hazards) undercut the five-star experience. Staff member Khai earned specific praise for attentiveness. Pastry standouts include croissants, danish, tarts, and sourdough at RM13. The menu spans nasi kerabu, Not Ikea meatballs, and waffles alongside breakfast fare. Pricing sits above local average, though some find it fair for quality.

Asa consistently wins over diners with its cozy, quiet vibe and well-executed fusion menu at reasonable prices. Standouts like creamy kimchi udon and beef curry draw repeat visits, though some dishes slip in consistency, and portions can disappoint. Staff deliver attentive service in a space where people easily settle for laptops or long chats. Their weekday lunch promos (RM19 for meal plus drink) and all-day breakfast menu anchor a loyal local crowd in Taman Paramount.

Fluffed Cafe @ Taman Paramount

Fluffed earns its reputation for waffles: reviewers describe crispy-outside, fluffy-inside texture paired with high-quality ice cream, syrups, and toppings that work together. Coffee has recently improved after switching beans. Service splits opinions. Many praise attentive, proud staff who clearly care about the product. Others report cold, dismissive counter behaviour and chaotic queue management during rushes, especially when the menu's forced combos confuse ordering.
