Some stairs are worth climbing… we’re not your usual.

Located at the first floor of Publika, Red Beanbag Cafe has attracted scores of customers ever since they opened their doors at the end of last year. The Red Beanbag is a modern contemporary Australian-inspired café with a rustic interior decoration with a nice view of Piazza at Publika from its balcony. The entrance is unmistakably inviting with scores of coffee bean bags lying on the ground teasing passers-byto check out what is in store inside.

Service was also prompt despite the enormous number of customers dining there during lunch hour. The friendly waiter recommended their signature dish called My Crustacean Cousin (RM 29.90) which is a fancy name for their seafood pasta. Food presentation was top notch with huge prawns resting on top of the pressed pasta.There were also a few pieces of clams and scallops scattered around the dish.

The sauce is not the usual tomato or cream based type. Instead it was more watery and has a pleasant seafood taste to it.

The pastas was certainly good and no wonder there were a few tables ordering it that day.The Fowl Luck (RM 25.00) was another recommend item in the menu. The dish came with a piece of nicely roasted chicken thigh with herb potatoes, mushrooms, olives and mushroom gravy.

The gravy was tasty although I wish they would added a wee bit more to go with the chicken meat.And speaking of the chicken, the meat was tender and the taste was spot on. Again, I love their food presentation which makes the entire dish seems so appetizing.No doubt, some stairs are worth climbing and Red Beanbag Cafe is one of them. With its homely rustic ambiance and warm service, it is really easy to recommend this place to eat. Food wise, I was happy with the meal and would definitely visit this place again.
