Commons Cafe at Old Court House @ Kuching, Sarawak

Commons is one of the cafe that registered the deepest positive impression amongst few cafes we visited in Kuching. Strategically located in Old Court House just opposite of the iconic Kuching Waterfront, Commons offers a contemporary and chic atmosphere for your to treat yourself with a cup of coffee and enjoying the menu that has balanced local and western fare. While waiting for your food, consider grab the board games at the corner to kill your time. On top of that, do not miss out the cake counter that managed to make us drools upon a glance. 

As we arrived here with a semi-full stomach, we just order something light for the sake of trying. 

Patty Melt (RM 30) features two pieces of grilled cheese sourdough sandwich with juicy beef patty, and served along with some French Fries. We appreciate the generous of beef patty but it was a tad dry for our liking, and the seasoning was slightly flat that tasted flat when having too much of it. 

On the other hand, Basque Burnt Cheese Cake (RM 14) has an overall nice taste, retaining a nice custardy and creamy texture in the centre, though the crisp and burnt sensation was lacking at the exterior.

Well, the atmosphere in the cafe is what we enjoyed the most. It is quite Instagrammable and if you are lucky, you could grab the sofa spot at both corner of the entrance for a more relaxing meal time.
