I recently paid an afternoon visit to Qidot Cafe in Banting, Selangor, and immediately felt transported to a quaint European cottage film set—only to discover it nestled well within Klang’s countryside. The white colonial-style exterior, manicured garden with vines and English-red phone booths, and chic interiors brimming with vintage furniture make the space undeniably picturesque (“like Britain met France”). I came in without a booking and the staff politely suggested reserving ahead—smart advice for anyone hoping to avoid a wait in this cozy, Instagram-worthy café.
The menu is an eclectic mix of Malaysian comforts and Western fare—think butter chicken rice, nasi lemak fried chicken, grilled lamb fried rice, pasta, pizzas, and plenty of dessert options like pistachio cromboloni or mango mousse cake (most mains are priced under RM30). I tried the butter chicken rice (around RM23) and a prawn carbonara—both generous in portion and rich in flavor. The butter chicken sauce was creamy and nostalgic, and the pasta was luxuriously saucy with fresh prawns nestled in every bite. I also indulged in a slice of mango mousse cake and a rose-lychee mocktail; the cake was light and fruit-forward, while the mocktail offered a refreshing floral sweetness that perfectly balanced my meal.
Service was friendly and attentive—staff thanked me warmly and ensured I had everything I needed—but I did note that several reviews mentioned inconsistency in food temperature and occasional underwhelming sides (like cold fries or hard garlic bread) depending on the day. A few guests also felt the prices leaned toward premium compared to portion quality—some items, especially pastry-based meals or kids’ sets, drew criticism for being overly pricey with small servings. Still, for a well-curated fusion café with lush ambiance, generous servings, and reliable Western‑plus‑local dishes, Qidot remains a memorable destination worth the journey.
