LewisGene Espresso

Pandan waffle smells amazing but their ice cream choices for it is very limited and boring. I would still honestly prefer inside scoop. Their mocha is strong and slightly sweet. Super buzzed. My butterscotch latte wasn’t that good as I have high expectations because these cafes are known to make good lattes.
Typical place you’ll see young crowds who takes selfies and hippy photos for Instagram…
Mighg be back to try their boozy lattes though.

LewisGene is the perfect place to relax and unwind over coffee and desserts.
Their casual and relaxing atmosphere, coupled with high backed cushioned chairs allows you to kickback and soak in the unique ambience, with od school music softly playing in the background. Their coffee list is impressive and written on chalkboards hanging on the walls behind the barista counter.
I tried their Toraja Black coffee which was really strong and immediately lifted my senses the moment I smelled it. My friend had the Kahlua coffee with is topped with a whole lot of whipped cream and sprinkled with coffee powder.
The alcoholic kick (Kahlua) in this drink is what makes it so unique!
For dessert, I had their cheesecake, selected from amongst a large selection of desserts on display including cookies and biscuits. It was a tough choice but I was craving cheesecake at the time. It turned out to be really creamy and fluffy while still maintaining its «lightness» — something I find rare as cheesecakes can get really heavy. There is also an outdoor seating area if you walk further in, great if you feel like taking in some fresh air.
Overall, an eccentric yet relaxing café vibe that is great to chill in with friends, or even alone. With such an extensive range of coffee types and desserts, as well as interesting decorations displayed everywhere in the store (including coffee drip apparatuses), you won’t go bored being here! Highly recommend this place to check out.

Loved the concept here and its interiors :) the menu is all written on blackboards over their counter and there’s a wide range of availablr drinks. I heard that their milkshake is awesome but I resorted to taking a Ganachi instead. Caloriesssssssss :/
Didn’t know ganachi stands for ice blended lol. I tried the matcha green tea with red bead one. Well being a green tea dessert lover, it’s a pretty recommended drink to have :)
My friends tried their lychee, vanilla and oreo milkshake and they tasted pretty damn awesome as well! And oh not to forget, as my friends were all planning to celebrate birthdays for the some of us, they have a wide range of cake selections to pick from :) there were about 8 of us and we chose 5 cakes! I love their whiskey salted caramel with chocolate. DAMN AMAZING! 2^nd choice will be the oreo crêpe cake.
When they serve our cakes the waitresses sang the happy birthday song for us. It was pretty sweet and they were really helpful and friendly :) very patient as well when it comes to explaining the food ingredients and also waiting for our decisions to make orders.
This is definitely a nice place to chill for late night café hops :)

Looking back on it now, I really hoped that that I had taken the initative on quzzing LewisGene about the origins of their name. It was a rather peculiar name for a café, though their interior was just mediocre to say the least.
LewisGene did have quite the variety of drinks compared to other cafes that I’ve been. There was the usual lattes and flat whites, of course. But then they also offered Granitas (ice blended drinks a little on the pricier side), milkshakes, Irish coffee and so on. LewisGene also served as a bar, providing alcoholic drinks like champagne, beer and a couple of cocktails as well. I had a cappucino (RM 9.90) and a plate of Belgian waffles (RM 15.90). My cappuccino was definitely a pretty sight to gaze at, with intricate spidery like coffee art drawn on it’s surface and served in a funky little cup. The waffles were deliciously presented as well, and tasted just as stunning as they looked. All in all, LewisGene really managed to impress and I’m definitely set on a second visit!

After dinner, I needed a cup of coffee, the craving was strong. Having undiscovered many places in Solaris, Mont Kiara, I stumbled upon Lewis Gene Espresso café. It look like a very hip place to be at.
I ordered one of their specialty ice coffee and a slice of chocolate cake. Again, this one of the cafes that has their menu on the wall. Something I do not fancy and find difficult to see. Very messy.
The coffee came fast and so did the cake. The coffee was really good and strong, the ices were coffee ice cubes. Double the caffeine! The cake was delightful too.
Because it is a hip place, there were many customers and it got pretty noisy plus the WiFi wasn’t really stable.
Nonetheless, good coffee and cake.

One of the many café’s that I’ve tried in Solaris Mont Kiara. LewisGene is the café to go to if you’re looking for some waffles to go along with your coffee or tea. They serve up quite good coffee as well.
Tried their Iced Chocolate the last time I was here cause I ordered their waffles so felt like going for something sweet to go along with my waffle. The Iced Chocolate was really good, it had the rich chocolate flavour which I really enjoyed. As for the waffle, I ordered their Belgian Waffle with ice cream. The waffle was okay, nothing great about it. Waffle topped with a big scoop of ice cream with chocolate sauce over and some fruits.
Not a bad place to go to for coffee and waffles with your friends or family.

Under the influence of coffee itself, I led myself into this particular café, with its name ominously named LewisGene, a perfect name for a boozed up prostitute rather than an actual café.
The ambience, of course, is as much as a Wes Anderson movie scene than an actual café. It is hipster-​ish, a telltale sign of the wacky and the unknown. You may find yourself knocking elbows with that other dude behind you, and then continuously finding the right space to really just stand and enjoy your cup of coffee. Their latte is admittedly decent, but with the amount of humans that, like me, wants to sit down to just enjoy a cup of coffee, I really cannot forgive the fact that my legs get no place to be placed on the concrete floor at all.
Of course, you must be there to really experience what I have described to you. One word of warning; do not bring a big bag there. You will be frowned upon and will consequently become the martyr of bad behavior.

As you enter this hipster coffee place, you will be shocked with the amount of people in the small shop lot on the 1^st floor. My friends and I waited for about 15 minutes to get our sit. Prior to ordering, we kept looking at our next door’s sit to see if there any interesting looking drinks or desserts to start with.
There are various selection of desserts and drinks in Lewisgene, and the price is pretty standardize for a hipster coffee place like this. My first experience was displeasing because of the huge crowd in café. Can imagine tuna fish being squished into a can? Yes, that’s the feeling I had. The next table was neck to neck with me; therefore, I could hear every single conversation the other table had. Another letdown would be the fact that the menu on the blackboard was so messed up; I couldn’t decide what to order.
On a lighter note, when it was less crowded, I enjoyed every single second of it. In all honesty, this place is a very good place to read a book, do assignments, and business meetings (when it’s less crowded). As they have various kinds of drinks and desserts, you will be pleased with the fact that you are given many choices to choose from. Two things I would like to commend are the friendliness of the workers, and the best coffee art I’ve ever seen. I don’t mind coming back here again, it’s worth the shot!

On a scorching Friday afternoon, my close friend and I decided to try out a café at Solaris after our brunch at Kanna Curry House. She wanted to try something with Churros in the menu. So we set out our journey to Solaris. When we reached and parked, we were scouting for cafes that have churros, instead we came across a café called LewisGene. When we entered, I did not expect the café to have sort of a nice and relaxing atmosphere.

The menu was written all over the chalkboard hanging by the ceiling. Personally, I would think the pricing of the drinks are a little overpriced but when I look around at the products such as the tea bags and coffee jars that they displayed, it sort of look like they were imported. My close friend and I wanted to go for the strawberry milkshake because there was an offer where if you buy one strawberry milkshake you get another one for free.

The milkshake has a fine strawberry taste. To add on, it was made-​fresh as well have it has a lip-​smacking taste towards it. It was creamy and thick but not too thick to the extend where you might pass out due to you having to suck the milkshake through a straw too hard. I would highly recommend you guys to try out this café and its desserts cause the next time I visit that place, I would give the cookies a try!
