The cafe serves the usual array of drinks such as lattes, cappuccino, flat white, iced coffee, selected teas, chocolate drinks, as well as bottled juices by Smooshie, a local fruit juice distributor. Food-wise, Strangers at 47 Cafe offers a balanced range of crepes with memorably quirky names that are arranged so meticulously that it’s almost criminal to not take snapshot or two before taking a bite.
Diners with a healthy appetite for savoury crepes will take delight in the Lethal Shrooms (RM19.50), a delightful combination of Portobello mushrooms, shimeji, baby king and oyster mushrooms wrapped in a thin and lightly herbed crepe. Topped with a perfectly poached egg, tomato relish and balsamic reduction, this meat-free crepe makes a delightful filling brunch option.

A great choice for seafood lovers, Miss Dory (RM20) is a savoury crepe of breaded fish fillet, battered squid, citrus-cucumber-onion salad, potato pumpkin mash, roasted cherry tomatoes, and siracha mayo lime. For dessert, we highly recommend the Go Bananuts! (RM13), a not-too-sweet crepe with generous amounts of chocolate and peanut spread, caramelised bananas, raspberry coulis, crushed peanuts, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
