Café Café

Sarawak


Café Café serves decent Southeast Asian fare, including Nonya-style chicken, Thai curries and Chinese noodles. There are daily specials and inventive desserts such as salted-caramel-apple-crisp cheesecake and Reese's-peanut-butter-chocolate cheesecake. With decor that mixes Balinese, Chinese and Western elements, this is a sophisticated urban dining spot. The Vietnamese-style drip coffee is a good way to ease into a sultry Sibu afternoon.
