Peace Be Quiet Cafe
We did plan to go to PS.Cafe at Dempsey Hill, but not only for lunch. It was one of those combined missions. Eat, look around, understand the area, and quietly ask ourselves if Nala could ever belong here.

Dempsey Hill, during the day, is surprisingly quiet. Almost too quiet. You walk through beautiful spaces, but many feel a little empty, waiting for the evening to come alive.
And then there is PS.Cafe.
By far the best place to sit on the entire hill. It has that rare quality where everything just works. The greenery, the layout, the light, but more importantly, the people. Everyone looks good. Relaxed. Happy. And that changes everything. You feel it the moment you sit down.
We had lunch, and it was exactly what it needed to be. Simple, well done, comforting. The lemon yoghurt cake deserves its reputation. Light, fresh, and very easy to justify ordering.
But what stayed with me was not just the food. It is the kind of place where you realise, halfway through, that you could stay the whole day. Work a little, think a little, watch people, reset. No pressure to leave, no rush, just a very easy rhythm.
We also stepped into Dover Street Market Singapore, and that alone is worth the trip. It is not just a store, it feels like a gallery. Everything is so carefully curated that you find yourself wanting to take everything home. It is rare to walk into a retail space where every single piece feels considered, and yet nothing feels heavy.
Together, these two places create a reason to go.
And it made me think. Why do we not have something like this in Kuala Lumpur? Imagine this exact energy in the Lake Gardens. The space is there. The greenery is there. The city needs it. A place where you can sit all day, where people come with their dogs, their laptops, their children, where business and leisure blur naturally. It would work. It would do extremely well.
So here is a simple suggestion.
Open a PS.Cafe in the Lake Gardens in KL(and a fashion store).
I would be there all the time.
