In
keeping with our quirky, kitschy cafe obsession, it was only natural that we
would go searching for such a place in JB. Okay, not that we had much searching
to be done, as the place was actually recommended to us by the true JB-ian,
Buzzylala.
Roost
is located just a few steps away from Hua Mui, in an area that used to
have a rather dodgy reputation (apparently, this area was the place for some trannie action). But the seediness of Jalan
Dhoby has now been replaced with an air of modern vintage, as the street is now
lined with cosy eateries and indie boutiques.
The
way the drinks are served here is super adorable: The Iced Cappucinos and Lime
Juices we ordered were served in these cute little baldis! To accompany your chit-chatting session of gossip fests, philosophical
wonderments, rants and raves and/or political debates, their finger foods are
the way to go!
Our
basket of Hash Browns.
Crispy-crusted,
fleshy wedges!
We
came here after dinner, so the only main dish we actually tried besides the
snacks is the Duck Fried Rice. It was so delicious and clearly very
skilfully-prepared, that we wished we had had dinner at Roost instead!
Roost’s
retro-inspired decor, from its intentionally-mismatched couches and chairs to its
vintage-ish household items, made for a homey hangout place.
