Frisson Coffee Bar @ Damansara Uptown

Thanks to Tap by Seeties I got to attend The Seeties FBIs gathering at one of my favourite café; Frisson Coffee Bar at Damansara Uptown.

I would say it was a great experience for me as this was the first time I attended a food review session without knowing anyone who’s attending the event (I was actually really nervous).

To be honest, it was my third time here in Frisson but I’ve never actually explored the café yet as I was always sitting near the glass window; for a better lighting- Instagram purpose.

So, here’s what it looks like inside.

The counter

Here's the dessert section.

I would say one of the reason I don’t mind coming back to Frisson was because they offered affordable price for their food and beverages despite the good quality of ingredients they’re using.

Plus, they even have lunch set menu which comes with drinks.

Just good for a student like me who wants to take care of my pocket yet wants to have some awesome café shots to update my Instagram.

Below is the newly introduced Frisson’s premium Italian Pasta and Affogato Series.
There’s two available offer you can get when you purchase a Premium Italian Pasta:

1.       Buy one premium italian pasta and get a free pizza (By using Seeties apps); OR

2.       Buy one premium italian pasta and get 30% off the affogato series.

                       

   

Daren which is the café owner was really friendly to actually explain all the foods that were brought over to our table.

So, here’s the selection of pizzas available in Frisson.
To be honest the presentation look almost similar that I couldn't identify it, except the Norwegian Smoked Salmon ones.

The Vegetarian Pizza (RM 15.90)

Beef pepperoni pizza (RM 15.90)

Norwegian Smoked Salmon Pizza (RM 18.90)
The smoked salmon was really fresh *thumbs up*

And here’s the typical Instagram shot.

Peppermint Chocolate (RM 11)
Their hot chocolate and peppermint blended so well. Even with the rich chocolate taste, I could still taste the after taste of  the mint.

Here’s two of Frisson’s Special Hearty Meal.

Croissant Ala Fusion Chicken (RM 22.90)
I've always have a thing with croissant. Well-baked and the chicken was well-marinated with the ingredient they used.
But for this dish, I would say its better to come over during lunch hour where you could save about RM 4.

Frisson's Big Breakkie (RM 28.90)
With a lot of combination used, and the good qualities of ingredient I would say RM 28.90 was okay.
Even the bread used was rather unique compare to other cafes.

So, here’s the premium Italian Pasta selection.

Frankly speaking, I don’t take beef so I couldn't comment much when it comes to beef food selection. And I hope I didn't get mixed up with all the food names.

Beef Striplon Pramigiana (RM 26.90)

Picante Soft-Shell Crab with Creamy Tomato (RM 29.90)
This dish was quite impressive, every chili ingredient was well blended with the rosemary creamy tomato sauce (Even thinking of it make me drools).
** Don't order this if you think you can't handle the spiciness.

Garlic Basil Salmon (RM 28.90)
I would say the herb was infused properly. Salmon was really fresh as well.

Salmon on Creamy Tomato Sauce (RM 28.90)
This dish was pretty similar with the Picante Soft-shell except this isn't spicy.
The sauce proportion was nice, not too creamy.

The owner is also kind enough to let us try the Affogato series.

From top left is Chocolate Mint (RM 12.50), Chocolate affairs (RM 13.50), and Are you Nuts? (RM 14)

I ordered the Chocolate Affairs with espresso shots (You can choose either chocolate or espresso shots) and it was really really good.

           

 

Not forgotten, he also gave us this apple crumble cheesecake (Okay I got lost with the full name but it was called something like these).

The owner said it was one of the bestseller. Two cakes could just sell off within half day.

For someone who doesn't really eat cheesecake, I actually could accept these.
The cheese was just nice, not too jelak. Apple crumble was nice too!

Overall, this was all the food we were feed on during the whole 3 hour gathering.
I actually enjoyed having to gather around people who I've yet to known, to talk with café owners which I don’t usually do and to try the other food that I didn't get to try during the last two visits.

Sincerely would like to thanks Daren the café owner for having us here, and also to the community members of Tap by Seeties who accompanied us during the whole gathering session.

As usual parking here will be a headache, and the only solution to this is to park at Uptown 7 with one of the cheapest parking rate compare to the other building. You could also park at the underground parking but parking at Uptown 7 is nearer.
