Modern Art Culture @ Sea & Saw, Johor Bharu

   I am always someone who adore art and appreciate simple living. As much as i love food, my love for photography is what get me started on this blogging journey. I used to be a portrait-enthusiast, but thanks to my dear architect friend, Ms Zheng, i developed some twinkle in architecture, design and nature as well. On my last trip to JB with Mr. J, we came across this unique and artsy space recommended by our senior, Edward, who happens to be the owner of The Replacement Lodge & Kitchen which i'm going to write about soon. Edward said that the view from this cafe is spectacular, especially during the evening. Hence, we traveled towards Danga Bay area, overlooking the Terbrau coast, in search of this well hidden gem--Sea & Saw.

    It was no joke looking for this particular cafe called Sea & Saw. Located off Jalan Straits View at Danga Bay area, we had to make a few turns before we found it. I would advise my dear readers that wish to try out this cafe to look for a Korean restaurant along Jalan Straits View if you are travelling from the old JB center. After you see the Korean restaurant on your left, Sea & Saw will be less than 500m on your left, with a tiny arrow with its name on it. Nevertheless, it is gonna be worth the effort because this find is more than awesome!

~SEA & SAW

 Sea & Saw is an artistic space, simply explained in 6 words above. It emphasized a lot on arts, furniture, architecture, modern art, food and coffee culture. Their fervent passion for art is so applaudable and prominent even as we step into the space. Every corner in Sea & Saw is a piece of art, created and developed carefully by the team. It contains of several different spaces with different set ups, themes and decors. They played hugely with the marriage between tiles and wood, metal and glass, altogether bringing a relaxing, rustic and comfortable space for art enthusiasts to shoot photos and chill.  

    Mr. J and i were literally in heaven, enjoying these wonderfully created spaces with our cameras. Photography aside, we were eager to try out their desserts and drinks. We ordered a glass of Passionfruit Smoothie and Green Tea Pie which is one of their most popular sweets here.

Passionfruit Smoothie--RM 10.90+

Green Tea Pie--RM 12.90+

     The passionfruit smoothie we had was just the thing we need in a scorching hot Malaysian evening. It was refreshing, icy cold and with just the right amount of sugary goodness. I can also taste the real passion fruit seeds in the smoothie. Green tea pie was another great dessert as well. Matcha flavour was very intense, rich and pie crust was buttery and flaky. However, it would be perfect if the sugar level was reduced about 30%.

Mr. J

   Even when the night falls, one can enjoy the sunset and sea breeze with the outside seats facing the coastal line. Overall, we were very impressed with Sea & Saw's concept, decor, architecture, design, food, drinks, service and their unique free spirit. For those who are planning to visit JB in the future, i highly recommend this wonderful cafe for a relaxing afternoon out. They also serve warm food and coffee! Make sure you take some nice photos and show me on Instagram @lovelifecherishmoments. Good day!
