Pure coffee connoisseur featuring Pull A Shot Kuantan


Pull A Shot is one of the older cafes in Kuantan when there were not many choices. But they have come a long way. Frequented by coffee lovers and foodies alike, it's definitely a hidden gem in this sleepy town.

There's lots of insta worthy corners here. I couldn't stop taking photos.

Cosy reading corner. One can even borrow books for free. Everyone is welcome to donate books as well.

Their rough menu.

Pull A Shot has 2 certified baristas who happened to fall in love with coffee and to each other at the same time :)

Their coffee is of a single origin. Look at all their coffee making gadgets. It's not just about a cup of coffee churned from the espresso machine here.

The barista/owner suggested us to try this hand brewed coffee. It's not easy to make this cuppa. It requires precise measurement of the weight of coffee bean, temperature and weight of the water. The barista also has to pour the water through the special filter paper over 2.5 minutes for a perfect kaffa. The result is a very soothing and smooth cup of long black.

Entree- Tomato mussel soup. Rich tomato taste with diced potato, carrot and capsicum. Very comforting and goes well when dipped with slices of toasted bread. Especially good during this cold weather.

Main- spaghetti carbonara. Fantastic for those who love thick creamy pasta. Really rich and saturate the palate with all the goodness of cream and cheese, sauteed mushroom and lightly crisped ham. The cheese powder looks just like the snow and reminds me of white Christmas. Will definitely order this again. Baby Bing loved this to bits.

Dessert- this is one of their signature. Claimed to be the best in town, we really think this matcha lava cake is worthy of this. The taste of matcha is not too overpowering.But the warm buttery and gooey lava flowing out is to die for. Savor this with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and strawberry preserve.

Charcoal churros. Festive looking just like stacked logs with snowy icing sugar on top.
Fluffy churros dipped in thick peanut butter sauce yet the skin is just lightly fried. Heavenly combination! 8 pieces is easily shared between 2.

Check out their promotions daily on the board.

Head to Pull A Shot now for some Christmas special :) look at how cute the set is! Gingerbread man, lemon tart, almond tart, friand, cream puff and panna cotta.

Verdict: 8.5/10! Pull A Shot is not just a normal cafe. It's especially for those who really love coffee. The owner likes to share his passion and knowledge about coffee. Combined with good food and tasty dessert, it's definitely a place we will revisit.
