Moonlight Cake House – 15 July 2017



Last year, I ordered a themed cake for my little girl’s 4th birthday party. The catalogue for cakes and the ordering online was super convenient. The cake tasted good too as we ordered chocolate fudge and the price was reasonable too, compared to most home bakers.


RM233.20 for 1 kg 

This year, we have decided to order a themed cake again for my little girl’s 5th birthday party, with the same flavor, chocolate fudge.


RM296.80 for 1 kg (picture from their website)
The actual birthday cake

When we ordered the themed cake last year, we knew that they had a restaurant serving food, but didn’t have the chance to try it.  

Now they have opened a new branch at Setapak where on the ground floor you buy your bakery products and cakes, and on the first floor you dine.

It was a full house on a Saturday night and we had to wait for a table, just over 5 minutes. We were ushered to our table and menus and an order chit were already prepared for us. I was surprised to see so many choices of food, Western, Italian and Asian.

We ordered the following:-


Tomato soup with seafood RM18.90. The tomato soup was very creamy and there were 3 big prawns, reasonable number of squids and 2 mussels with garlic. It was very tasty and I will definitely order this appetizer again.


Smoked Salmon Salad RM19.90. There was green and purple lettuce with sliced cherry tomatoes, which was pretty simple. The dressing was vinaigrette. Salmon was served separately and you just need to add it on to your salad. The salmon was fresh. However, I felt that the dressing was not enough and not to my liking.

BBQ Chicken Chop Sandwich RM15.70. The portion of the burger was big. It comes with sides; potato wedges and salad. The chicken patty was juicy and nicely marinated and the buns are big.


Fish Ball Spaghetti RM14.60 (kids’ meal). There were a variety of kids’ meals and my little girl chose this. Simple spaghetti bolognaise (no meat), tasty fish balls, coleslaw, Yakult drink and 2 marshmallows. Overall, this meal is good and healthy for kids.   

Ice Orange juice and Ice Apple juice RM9.00 each. Normal juice….

Other dishes that we tried on different occasions:


 Chicken Roll RM15.50. There are only 6 pieces of the rolls. Basically it's just chicken mean rolled up, accompany by lettuce, sliced brinjal and sliced cherry tomatoes. The dressing was the Japanese sesame.


Bamboo Charcoal Homemade Chicken RM18.90. Quite a reasonable portion. The chicken patty is nice with caramelized onions, topped with black peppered sauce. However, the potato was hard. The coleslaw was ordinary. 

 Mushroom Soup in French Puff RM14.90. There were shiitake and shimeji mushrooms, garlic, and asparagus stick. Soup was very creamy and nice. Once you have finished the soup, you may not want to eat the puff anymore as it was soggy from inside. Outside is still alright but you would have filled your tummy!

 Bamboo Charcoal Beef Burger RM23.90. Juicy beef patty with lettuce, gherkin, coleslaw and potato.
All Day Breakfast RM15.90. There will be bread, chicken sausages, smoked duck, scrambled eggs , potatoes and cherry tomatoes with lettuce. This dish is very basic.

Lemonade Mango  RM11.90. There are other flavours to choose from, such as lemon.

Fish Meehoon Soup RM15.50. The taste is similar to Fish Head noodle soup, i.e. milky white broth. For me, the soup is not thick enough and sadly, there are bones in the fish. I do not recommend this dish for small kids.

Venus RM14.90. A very expensive drink but it tasted nice. 

The cafe is halal and the service in this restaurant was fast even though it was busy and there were so many waiters and waitresses around to serve you. They are very efficient as well. Upon payment, if you are a member of Moonlight (download the app and follow instructions therein), please present your member code to get 5% discount for food and beverages.  

The ambience of the restaurant is simple setting and bright. However, it was noisy when we were there. There is ample parking in front of the bakery and alongside the main road.

Their buns, cakes, food and beverages are good and reasonably priced. We will come back again.
