Coliseum Jaya 33, PJ

THE Coliseum Cafe Kuala Lumpur is part of the city’s history, having been around for over nine decades, since 1921.Located along Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman, few places can boast of seeing how the country has progressed from the British colonial era right up to the formation of Malaysia.Seriously, If you are looking for something old school place to dine, wanted to feel dining in the colonial era.. just proceed to Coliseum Cafe.
The one that I experienced is in PJ located at the Ground Floor, The Plaza, Jaya 33, Section 13, Petaling Jaya. Frankly, I did not fancy the food so much as the menu is more or less the same like Kluang Station and Victoria Station but what I do like and admire are the old school setting, the environment, the friendly people, it is sooo antique. Being in there as if I am in the era of the 20's, 30's and 40's. I really enjoyed the ambiance of the place not the food so much.

Alternative Dining: Ben's

"From a breezy marine penthouse to a sophisticated Manhattan townhouse, a Savannah plantation, an understated Australian house and a 1900s colonial-style interior; Ben's unique décor is modelled after a dream-like home right here in Malaysia. As a home-grown restaurant with its signature style, emphasis is placed on the familial quality that Ben's has adopted, hence the value of building relationships through food in a cosy and welcoming environment.

Taking on a modern interpretation of East-meets-West, there are plenty of choices for everyone to enjoy. Whether for coffee, a big family get together or even a relaxed weekend brunch, Ben's is perfect for any occasion and welcomes friends and families to enjoy themselves just as they would at home" - Ben's website

Personally, it is a great place to be and the foods are so superbly brilliant... attracted to its motto - To Eat is To Love.. The kind of place that will make you come again and again...
