For many people, including us at HHWT, going cafe-hopping is a simple joy in life. There's just something about the aroma of coffee, exciting chatter among diners and aesthetically pleasing dishes that put a smile on our faces. So no matter where we travel to, sniffing out a good cafe for a hearty brunch will always be part of our itinerary. If you happen to be visiting Melaka, one of the best places to kick start your day at is Sharing Plates.
Located on Jalan Bendahara, the cafe is an ideal spot to fuel up before you begin exploring Jonker Street since it's just a walking distance away. Spot its pastel green window frame entrance and step into a minimal, white-themed dining space.
If you venture further in, you'll get a different vibe from the front of the cafe where a brighter area lies with open ceilings and lush greenery. Perfect for your mandatory #ootd shot, having your meal while enjoying streams of sunlight and fresh air is a great way to start your morning ?
With the perfect environment all set, your time at the cafe gets even better with the various delicious eats available. Look forward to unique dishes like pandan pancakes with gula melaka shredded filling or french toast with teh tarik sauce! If you're saving your adventurous brunch spirit for another time, then you can't go wrong with their salted egg yolk croissant, toasted sourdough with three different homespreads and bagels.
To those swinging by during lunch hour, heartier options such as teriyaki chicken sandwich, kimchi fried rice and various pasta dishes will fill you up nicely ?
Can't get enough of the flavours served here? Then make sure to grab yourself some of their products before you leave, from cold brews and spreads to kombucha and granola. And if you know someone who appreciates food gifts like these, it'll be the perfect souvenirs for them as well.
