6) Wú Coffee Gallery, Kota Damansara
If you’re someone who enjoys café hopping, Wú Coffee in Kota Damansara is probably one of the most aesthetically pleasing spots in town. It is the antithesis of bright lights and luscious cousins. Instead you’ll find a minimalist, almost Scandinavian take on décor.
Crafted by the founders of Kota Damansara’s Mobius Academy of arts and design, the space is full of grey concrete and raw, exposed brick walls juxtaposed with luscious green potted plants. Oh and the iced brews aren’t bad either.
