And with more halal hipster cafes popping up all over the city, a holiday here promises a fun time with family and friends! If you happen to be in town and are looking to dine someplace a little more special than usual, the perfect answer to that is Loteng.
Translating to attic in English, Loteng is a two-storey cafe situated at the Teluk Cempedak beach. Nestled in-between Starbucks and 7Eleven, this eatery is a favourite hangout spot among the locals for its calming ambience and picturesque view of the expansive blue sea and sky. So don't forget to fish out your camera for an Insta-worthy shot and memories of your visit.
On top of the amazing view, you can look forward to all sorts of delicious dishes here. Their menu consists of a mix of western and Malay dishes such as tom yum mee hoon, grilled chicken chop, cheesy wedges, and keropok lekor, though it is their drinks and desserts that keep people coming back for more. Among popular picks are their Thai Green Milk Tea and Mango Cheesecake Bar.
Once you're done having fun on the beach and in need to fill your hungry stomach, you'll only need to take a few steps to get to a hearty meal! It also works if you're planning to visit the beach after lunch. Either way, it's a super convenient place to drop by so make sure to fit it into your Kuantan itinerary.
