Nestled in the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s bustling Chinatown, Merchant's Lane stands as a charming fusion of heritage and modernity. Situated at 150 Jalan Petaling, this cafe embraces the rustic charm of its pre-war building, creating an inviting ambience with exposed brick walls, lush greenery, and cozy corners. It is a perfect spot for tourists seeking an authentic yet contemporary dining experience.
The menu highlights a creative blend of local and Western flavors, featuring crowd favorites like the "South China Sea" – a satisfying fusion of pan-seared salmon with a hint of Asian flair, and the "Italian Chow Mein" - an unexpected yet delightful twist on pasta. Sweet treats like their signature "Hong Kong Hotcake" with pandan ice cream and fruits are a must-try for dessert lovers. The beverage offerings are equally enticing, with artisanal coffees and unique drinks like Matcha Latte with Rose.
