Mr Shawn & Miss Chicken

Sitting outside on Burton Street has Darlo vibe galore, especially on Mardi Gras day, love really is in the air. Inside the little cafe there's a party atmosphere. Even though we are in fancypants Darlinghurst, Jilat Jilat maintains full hole-in-the-wall street cred, complete with bainmarie of love.
It was my first visit to this cafe and I was very impressed. They serve classic cafe dishes as well as Malaysian dishes. I opted for Malaysian dishes and everything was delicious.
Love their Thai milk tea and strong coffee.
The homemade chicken curry with salted duck egg pie was pretty special and came with rich curry sauce.
Their signature Penang char kuey teow was yum and the nasi goreng kampung was just the bomb! Love how they have sambal belachan too. Totally made everything better!
For dessert I chose the homemade durian baked cheesecake. Don’t be afraid to try even if you don’t like durian ‘cause the durian flavour was quite subtle (but the cheesecake was still divine regardless!)
Highly recommend this cafe.

Love, love, love this place so much and hope more people come across it. Seriously it is the best all round cafe for brekky, lunch and dinner. The new owner is a wonderfully kind man who is very customer focused and the chef is talented. The coffee is brilliant, my fave brekky is sour dough, pesto, poached egg and haloumi and the lunch time laksa yum! Very Vegetarian friendly :-) also alcohol served from breakfast to dinner. Xxx
