Universal Bakehouse, Damansara Kim PJ: Sourdough Love

Universal Bakehouse at Damansara Kim Petaling Jaya, a labour of love by Table & Apron located right next door, also the restaurant that churns out one of the best Buttermilk Chicken in town.

The signage that appears so often on our Instagram recently! It recreates the nostalgic touch of traditional bakery shop, hand-painted by a 71-year-old painter.

Artisan sourdough bread takes the limelight here, freshly made from only flour, water and salt along with careful kneading, folding, fermentation and know-how techniques to achieve beautiful crispy-crackly caramelized dark brown crust with tender soft interior.

Assorted Dough, with French butter & Sea Salt RM8

Enjoy by slice in the cafe with coffee, or bring home in loaf. RM6 for 2 slices of plain Country Sourdough with French butter & Sea salt; RM8 for 2 slices of Assorted Dough, sided with French butter & sea salt as well.

Need more accompaniments for your crusty sourdough? Smeared them with Gula Melaka, Jam, Hummus & Pistachio, Duck Rilettes, Chicken Liver Parfait, Butter & Ikura Roe, or add on half-boiled egg for a hearty breakfast.
