In Malacca, do as the Malaccans do. And that, ladies and gentlemen would entail the notion of going forth and sampling one of Malacca's best featured pastry: the French Layer Cake -or more commonly known as 'mille-crepe'. With mille-crepe in mind, there are several places in Malacca that house sinfully good mille-crepe, one of them being Gateau Cafe. Located in the premises of Dataran Pahlawan Melaka Megamall (a stone's throw away from Malacca's most renown landmark, the A' Famosa), Gateau Cafe has plenty to offer if you're looking for a place to unwind, get a cuppa coffee and of course, have mille-crepe.
In general, a mille-crepe is a pastry cake derived from layers upon layers of paper thin crepes stacked meticulously on one another, with each layer separate by cream. And here in Gateau Cafe, they serve a whole variety of home-made mille-crepes ranging from their best seller, durian -yes, you saw that right, durian; flavored mille-crepe to Oreo chocolate to matcha (green-tea), coffee-flavored, raspberry and few more. In essence, there are many choices to choose from, and being one of the front-runner of the mille-crepe industry in the state, the tastes of Gateau's mille-crepes are not to be trifled with.
Fluffy and light in terms of texture, coupled with the sweetness of the mille-crepes, anyone will have a good time taking in both the food and the ambiance of the surrounding environment. And like every pastry products, mille-crepe goes well with a hot cup of coffee or tea, so be sure to order your favorite cup of caffeinated beverage as well.
