Founded by a passionate 21-year old reptile enthusiast, Yap Ming Kang, this cafe was born from his love for reptiles way back when he was just a little kid. Yap muses that these little creatures are more than meets the eye, and he used to fill his time with enjoyment catching and observing spiders around his home. To no surprise, his fascination led to his decision to open up this cafe, in collaboration with Dekori, Malaysia’s homegrown dessert brand!
Ultimately, he wanted a place where reptile lovers can express their passion for reptiles and share it with the community, at the same time inspire the public to interact with reptiles and face their fears!
