Delirium

Don’t cancel your brunch plans just yet when the tables at Huckleberry or Yellow Brick Road are all occupied – Bukit Damansara has a new café and it’s helmed by the same people behind Antipodean Coffee. For those who couldn’t have brunch at Antipodean for its porkiness, you'll be happy to know that this new café is pork-free. 

This new venture also promises a more sophisticated menu than Antipodean's basic brunch meals, with a good mix of healthy and indulgent dishes. For example, those on their cheat day can go for the banana nut waffles with manuka honey ice cream; if you’re on the #eatclean team, try the rhubarb granola with mascarpone, or the almond, date and cinnamon Bircher muesli. Sadly, Delirium doesn't do all-day breakfasts (breakfast ends at 11.30am), but its Mediterranean-inspired lunch menu is a promising one with paninis, burgers, salads, pastas, and even kebabs (served with cous cous, yoghurt and salad). The café does its best to make everything in-house, including breads, bagels and even ice cream, on top of growing its own tomatoes and herbs. If you want dessert, you can request for one of Delirium's homemade ice creams although they're not on the menu. Varieties include manuka honey, lemon and mint sorbet, and an egg-free pistachio nut ice cream. 

For coffee, Delirium roasts its own beans sourced from a small village in Indonesia. But if you’re not into coffee, there are fresh juices, milkshakes and protein shakes (one of which comes in a vanilla and Vegemite variety).
