I went to Lavish Fusion Bakery during tea time with my cousins and siblings. It's a very stylish cafe with a garden-like interior and beautiful balloons and backgrounds.
It's located in Lebuh Victoria, which is one street behind Weld Quay. It's all side parkings by the street, so remember to scratch a parking coupon to avoid fines!

Interior of the Cafe
The front of their menu states Gastronomy Journey In Flight Magazines by Lavish. And it certainly looks like a magazine! It's really nice to see cafes put so much effort into their menus. Even though the layouts are as of magazines, they still portray their dishes very clearly and stunningly. However, their dishes are quite expensive. |
We ordered 4 dishes and 2 beverages to share. My cousin treated us so I don't know how much is the total. There's this thing in the cafe where every RM20 spent earns us an instant print picture using their instant camera.
We had 4 picture opportunities. So the total bill should be over RM80.

Smoothie Bowl
We ordered the berry bowl, but they sent us this green smoothie bowl. We thought my cousin changed the order last minutes, but it turns out he did order the berry bowl. The server sent the wrong one to us.
It's a healthy smoothie bowl, which means there isn't any distinct or outstanding flavors to it. It was actually quite plain.

Spaghetti with Clams
I don't remember what's the exact name of the dish, but it's clams with spaghetti. It was SO salty, and it's the first time I've ever send a dish back to the kitchen to be corrected.
Later on, a server came over and explained it was due to the sourness of the white wine that was used to get rid of the sea scent of the clams.
But wait, what does the sourness of white wine had to do with the saltiness of the dish? So my cousin went to the counter and told them again that it was SALTY, NOT SOUR.
I think, they submerge the clams in salt water before cooking. And they didn't wash the clams before adding it into the pan with the pasta.
And so they sent us another serving of the pasta. This time it was less salty, but the clam definitely taste more of the sea. But at least it's edible this round.

Durian Musang King Cronuts
RM24.90
The durian taste is very outstanding. It was very fragrant and it compliments the plain cronut.

In my opinion, Lavish Fusion Bakery is a very instaworthy and beautiful cafe, but in terms of their food and beverage, it's too pricey for its quality.
I didn't try their pastries but I heard it's decent. I think I will not crave for Lavish's dishes, but if I'm holding a gathering with friends, I will definitely go there for their stunning interior.
