Grazia Cafe @ Sutera Utama, JB

If you're a coffee lover, never miss this out!


Was spending my relaxing evening with sis and her bf yesterday. Being a lightbulb is my recent hobby LOL! Before my memories turn vague, would like to blog about this cafe located at Sutera Utama. It has been open for business since a long time ago but I wasn't tempted to go, not even once simply because the signboard and entrance were not attractive at all *truthful speaking*.

But not anymore! I didn't know it has changed the layout and even the signboard, until these few weeks when I saw my sis posted the photos in Instagram. 

Trying to be an efficient blogger! Photos taken, edited by yesterday, blogging NOW! because I know once the Monday hits I'd have no time to blog until the next weekend :(
*wore the necklace my sis gave me as my 21st pressie, like finally*

BTW, I went to this showhouse during the afternoon and this lady is gonna own it.
*gratssss hoho*


and then
we went to this cafe called

 Grazia @ Sutera Utama


Hmm... lets pics do the talking, shall we?

the outside *open air area*
the inside


I never expected the interior is so warmth and lovely. Retro theme, country tablecloths, modern style couch, different elements make up a peace combination with each other. It somehow reminds me of Roost cafe (it's more lean to funky old school theme) I don't know why, but with a warmth lighting and more spacious space. 

check out their interior designs and deco!
the most frequent question people nowadays asked
"what's your WIFI password?"
okay now you can save this sentence when you visit this place :)

especially like this corner

Grazia's house blend (Brazil, Guatemala, Sumantra and Robusta.) is available. Start brewing coffee for your loved ones? Haha and the biscotti served with their coffee is actually from Yardley Pastry! Available too at Grazia. 

and this corner. Some little handcrafts they sell/display

and I like the idea that coffee beans appeared everywhere in a cafe. Like Maco, but Maco's is too oriented and this kinda random feeling is what I prefer more.

*RETRO*

cute accessories and handbooks

"you can refill water here, make yourself at home"
only if the owner can write the warmth sentence in those recycled paper used as menu and those little tags on every bottle that put on the table *I like the recycle paper concept*.

painting on the sack as an art, creative :)

love these different floral country tablecloths so much!! well mixed and matched with the whole ambiance!

with white furniture 

the bookrack with both Chinese and English books, and some magazines. Ideal environment for slow-walkers. with the background music playing, you can have a really enjoying and lazy afternoon.

and the left side of this cafe..
black color modern style banquette

 with a really creative wall deco

and their sign "Grazia", it's an Italian word means gracefulness, neatness, grace, prettiness, favour, mercy.
for the hidden meaning behind, shall you ask the owner :)
BTW, I like the textured paint wall, brings an easy atmosphere as it's randomly scratched. But I think this kind of wall finish traps dust easily..

the lighting 


and then the open air area

the handmade welcome sign is so lovely!

on your left

nice obsolete deco! the fiction "One Fifth Avenue" spotted!

Love this pic (and ofcourse the deco) so much haha, creative touch by the owner!

Menu

Believe they are all the hardworks from the owner him/herself.

"Because you can't get shit done when you're asleep"
That's why you need coffee!!! *Caffeine fixed*

"Life is too short for bad coffee," True.


from every single little thing you can see the great effort the owner has spent on it. *Thumbs up!*

#1 Hot chocolate (DAMN CUTE!!)

#2 Mocha (Bunny~)

#3 Flat white 
after the waiter served the first two, we so anticipated for my sis's latte art who knows... We literally burst out laughing. The waiter even came up to explain to us the bubble foam is too little for drawing. Okayy not to blame we just simply wanted to laugh at my sis.

BTW, to my surprise the waiters are pro in coffee knowledge (unlike some other cafes). Knew it the time we wanted to order, he asked about my liking whether my choice suits me not.

Nutella banana waffle. Comes with big portion, quite a stomach filling dessert!

chocolate truffle cake(?) + blueberry cheesecake 
okay, so-so, nothing surprising. but nothing to complain as well.

will definitely pay the next visit :)
for lunch/dinner then. Shall try out their menu. They serve Italian cuisine, pizzas and sandwiches. 

I ain't a paid blogger yea, simply love this place :)

Would you like to pay them a visit too?? Aren't the pictures tempting enough?XD

tadaaaa!
High tea ended. Monday's approaching....


do you have a great weekend?



I do.


"A cup of coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent. "
"Chocolate, men, coffee: some things are better rich."

Some coffee quotes I found meaningful (the 1st) and hilarious (the 2nd)


Anyone brings me out to a simple yet decent cafe like this and I'll like you more haha :)


Another hectic week aheads.
All the best!


Love,
Ee
