Forget sloppy salads; Swich puts virtuous effort into veggie ensembles. The "Lite Aphrodite" (about RM16) is a hillock of strawberries, carrots, tomatoes, spiced pecans, arugula and romaine with balsamic honey truffle dressing. Add several ringgit for thick slices of smoked salmon.
The Beef and the Barbie: succulent slow-cooked beef (lots of it!) with Swich's house-made barbecue sauce in a sesame bun with apple dijon slaw (about RM18). Prices here are steeper than what char kuey teow might cost, but portions are heftier and arguably healthier.
Swich's chocolate brownie is brilliant, thanks to its mouth-filling, flavor-flooded creaminess. The red velvet cake is less memorable by comparison, but still marvelous.
We've never seen this much cranberries jammed into a carrot-and-walnut cream cheese cake. Every bite was berry-licious! Confession: this visit to Swich was several weeks ago, so some items might no longer be on their ever-changing menu.
To avoid a food coma from all this glorious grub, order some coffee, made magical at Swich with a sprinkling of Valrhona chocolate.
Or have some hot chocolate, made doubly chocolatey with Valrhona too.Swich's weekdays-only, no-dinner-served business hours are unkind to folks far away. But try heading here for a long Friday lunch if you're seeking someplace different. The service team whispered that a branch in Bangsar Shopping Center might happen sometime this year.
