[2025 Kuala Lumpur Restaurant] Travel Guide for themanis.kl (Updated Apr)

Manis KL, a charming dessert café tucked in the lively streets of Chinatown Kuala Lumpur, offers a cozy spot to cool down with traditional Malaysian sweets. I tried their Cendol Red Bean, and it did not disappoint. The dessert came with finely shaved ice, smooth and fragrant pandan jelly, soft and sweet red beans, and a luscious swirl of thick coconut milk. The finishing touch—a generous drizzle of rich gula Melaka (palm sugar syrup)—tied all the flavors together beautifully. What stood out was the balance: not overly sweet, just enough to satisfy a dessert craving without overwhelming the palate. The café itself has a modern yet nostalgic vibe, blending well with the heritage charm of the surrounding area. If you’re strolling through Chinatown and need a break from the heat, Manis KL’s Cendol Red Bean is a refreshing, flavorful must-try.

Indulge in a delightful dessert escape at The Manis KL, where nostalgia meets sweetness in the heart of Petaling Street! With its vintage-inspired setting and beautifully crafted treats, every bite is a trip down memory lane. From traditional Malaysian flavors to modern indulgences, it’s the perfect spot to satisfy your sweet tooth while soaking in Chinatown’s timeless charm. A must-visit for dessert lovers! #favouriteitinerary
