The verdict

Boleh

Jason rates this viral industrial-vibes bakery 7.1: quality pastries that taste good but not wow good, with prices that sting. The honey butter toast is the standout and the best toast he's had this year, while the quiche and sausage roll fall flat for the price.

Highlights

  • Price: RM81 spent across pastries; items RM9-22 each
  • Taste: Quality bakery overall, but several items average for the price
  • Ambiance: Urban industrial vibes with low tables he finds uncomfortable, nice street view
  • Other: Accessible by train near Petaling Street

Dishes tried

  • Blueberry tart

    soft base, thick almond cream, sweet blueberries, expensive

    Score 9.6 out of 10
  • Green confit chicken croissant sandwich

    buttery croissant and rocket carry it, bland chicken, too green

  • Sausage roll

    crispy fluffy roll, supermarket-tasting sausage, average for RM16

  • Seasonal root veggie quiche

    fancy name, average forgettable taste

    Score 5.7 out of 10

I ate 81 ringgit worth of pastries in this viral bakery. It's called Flah! Located in 4 points right across Betaling Street. So you wanna take the train here Boleh? And it really adds to the urban industrial vibes to this bakery. I don't get the aesthetic of low tables, I just find it uncomfortable. But you get a nice view of the street outside. Tempat berda'ah. Say hello to breakfast, a plate of pastries and blueberry tart. And it's 19 ringgit. Hanamampui! But is it good? At first I thought the base would be hacked. The base is actually very soft but it doesn't fall off. It's good eh. Almond cream in the middle is thick and nothing. Blueberry is sweet, not sour. The tart is like a soft cookie. Overall it's nice but it is very expensive. Expensive, tastes good, but not wow good. 7.1. Honey butter toast, 9 ringgit a piece. So you have the option to melt the butter or to just leave it as whole. It smells very caramelly. I'm pretty sure it'd be quite good right? I haven't tasted yet. It's tasteless lah. Try a bite in the middle. Is this like honey and butter? Honey, butter toast is amazing. They also have chrysanthemum in this. And it's all glazed out to make this delicious honeycomb texture. Is it weird if I say this is juicy? I will get what you mean. I will buy this again. Best toast I've tasted this year, 9.6. Green confit Gillette sandwich. 22 ringgit terpaling mahu nak mabus. I'm going to eat the second bite. The first bite is mostly just the croissant but the croissant is also very good. I thought second bite is mine. Tidolua, gang. A lot of the taste comes from the butter croissant and a vegetable called rocket. The walnut gives it an earthy nutty flavour. Chicken had the smallest part to play in the taste department. It was bland. Cheese was richer than your typical supermarket quality. Sandwich too green for me but I can't deny it's mostly well-made. Salmon. This sausage roll sells for 16 ringgit. The roll is crispy, it's fluffy. The bakery overall got quality. The sausage a bit taste like supermarket sausage. Brat was cheese sausage but I couldn't taste the cheese. Tastory was good, sausage was very average especially for the price 6.5. Seasonal root veggie quiche 17 ringgit. Got sweet potato, yam, carrot, leek and that mashy looking quiche feeling in the middle. It tastes like it has barbecue seasoning. Quiche is my loose flavor. Tastes a lot like mashed pea you know like when you blend the pea. Fancy name but average forgettable taste 5.7. You didn't eat everything but I was like why you did my chocolate. You're sleeping on the floor today. Fast one with your lady.
