Why is nobody talking about how good this place is??
Mother’s Day dinner at The Coco Deli ✨
Honestly thought it was just one of those “pretty café for photos” places…
but the food was ACTUALLY good 😭
First of all… 🌽 Salted Egg Corn Ribs
THIS was the MVP of the table.
How is the corn so flavourful???
The moment I dipped it into the sauce beside, I went completely silent and focused on eating 🌚
🍄 Wild Mushroom Soup was insane too.
So good that I almost wanted to ask if they could sell me the whole pot 😭
The mushroom flavour was super rich and smooth.
Definitely not the usual canned mushroom soup taste from random western cafés.
🥗 Mediterranean Watermelon Salad
When I first saw watermelon + mint + grapes together I was like:
“there’s no way this works…”
But wow.
I take my words back.
Eating everything together somehow tastes SO refreshing and layered.
Very fresh, light, and surprisingly addictive.
🥙 Hummus & Pita Bread though…
This one wasn’t really for me 😂
It had a stronger herby/spice kind of taste, but my family actually loved it.
So I think it really depends on your preference!
🥩 The beef was really good too.
Super juicy and tender, not hard to chew at all.
Their sauce made it even better.
🧀 And lastly — Salmon & Leek Maccheroni
Cheese lovers PLEASE order this.
Creamy but somehow not too heavy or jelak at all.
The salmon was cooked perfectly too.
It’s the kind of dish where you keep eating and suddenly realise…
“uh oh, I’m gonna crave this again.”
Overall: 8.5/10 ⭐️
Definitely a café I’d come back to again 🫶
⚠️ Small reminder:
Please make a booking before going 😭
Walk-ins usually end up waiting forever LOL
📍The Coco Deli, Taman OUG
⏰ Monday-Sunday 11am-3pm, 6pm-10pm
If you've been searching for a café that offers both photogenic ambiance and genuinely delicious food, The Coco Deli in Taman OUG should be on your list. From my visit, one thing stood out immediately—the Salted Egg Corn Ribs. The corn was surprisingly flavourful and perfectly complemented by the dipping sauce that kept me focused on every bite, silencing all distractions. This dish alone is reason enough to come back. Another highlight was the Wild Mushroom Soup. Unlike typical canned mushroom soups, this one had a rich, smooth texture and deep mushroom flavor that felt homemade and comforting. It made me wish the café sold it by the pot for takeaway! One of the more unexpected delights was the Mediterranean Watermelon Salad. Initially skeptical about the combination of watermelon, mint, and grapes, I found it refreshingly light and layered with flavor. It’s a perfect palate cleanser or side dish to balance the richness of other menu items. For cheese fans, the Salmon & Leek Maccheroni is a must-order dish. The creamy sauce was just the right consistency—not too heavy—while the salmon was cooked to perfection, making every mouthful addictive and craving-worthy. While the Hummus & Pita Bread had a stronger herbal and spice profile that wasn’t to my taste, it was loved by my family members, proving that the café offers variety to cater to different preferences. The grilled Black Pepper Beef Tenderloin was juicy and tender, complemented well by their special sauce. A word of advice—always make a booking before visiting. This cozy spot is popular, and walk-ins usually face long waiting times. Operating daily from 11am to 3pm and 6pm to 10pm, The Coco Deli is perfect for lunch or cozy dinner plans. Overall, I gave it an 8.5/10 and plan to return soon. If you enjoy discovering hidden gems with standout dishes and a welcoming atmosphere, The Coco Deli is well worth your visit.
