Coffee and pastries. Enough said. Contour’s founder, Jason Loo, is a four-time Malaysia Barista Champion (and co-owner of Yellow Brick Road), who got his start in pastry-making. He couldn’t quite decide what he liked doing best, but that’s all the better for us: Contour is more than baker and brewer, it’s also a roaster. If you can draw your gaze from the café’s front-of-house interiors, that is, with its beautiful display of pastries at the bar and pops of green, you’ll find its roaster at the back. Contour’s beans are available for sale in-store or online at Shopee.
Pop in for espresso-based coffees, filter coffees, and more. What we love: it’s free to upgrade to oat milk here (please, coffee shops, stop punishing us for developing a lactose intolerance in our 30s). As for food, don’t miss flaky, perfectly-laminated croissants, blueberry danishes, and everything from banana bread and scones to almond sponge cake topped with fresh figs and cream cheese.
