Brewing the perfect cup



Ever wonder how this perfect cup of latte is prepared?

Like all great things in life, it takes preparation and practice to perfect the art of handcrafting our signature blend of coffee. Let us bring you a sneak peek of behind-the-curtain scenes into perfecting this art.

Tony Tang is a name which is well known among the top notch baristas. Being one of the judge in an International Barista Competition and a coffee bean supplier as well as a coffee roaster, this lass from Singapore flew all the way down to our branch @ Setiawalk, Puchong to train our new line of baristas into preparing a perfect cup ofcoffee for you.

Sharing basic knowledge about coffee and identifying fresh coffee beans.

This training enables our barista to know how to select the freshest coffee bean, extract a good shot of espresso, frothing the milk perfectly, mixing it well to give an aromatic cup of coffee and finish it off with a nice coffee art. Also, not forgetting the cleaning, maintenance and calibrating of the coffee machine daily to provide a constant quality of coffee to you.

The master at work watched closely by our enthusiastic baristas.

It’s practical time!

This training took around 1 to 2 days to complete and after proper demonstration, it’s time for some art creation!

Rough ‘work of art’ by the newbies

And the expressway towards honing this craft is to let the baristas try their own brew! If we don’t love it, we won’t serve it to you. That’s our promise.

Tasting your own brew!

Each of our baristas needs to pass the test for this training and there will be a revision course every 3 to 4 months time to ensure that our coffee quality is top notch at all time.

On a side note, we are having a contest soon with 100 winners of amazing price! So, do watch our space closely!

782, 783, 784, …..



The tension is building. Some dreams are shattered while some dreams are still a far, far distance away. Some are secretly hoping that the count will end soon. How about your guess?


The venue is ready for the Guess the Beans Counting Session.

The media personnel have arrived right on the dot @ 3.30pm to witness Chilla Cup ‘Guess the Beans’ counting session. During the period of 18th to 29th June 2012, we have launched this contest with a single inspiration – to create the awareness of our signature blend coffee which is on par with the finest coffee in the region. Therefore, 5 winners that have guessed the most accurately will be complimented with 10 regular handcrafted premium coffees.
