This café has a strange name, but it’s a beautiful little space. It’s run by a Swiss man, Urs Capol, and his wife, Teresa. Upstairs, Teresa has this amazing little museum with Indian and Baba-Nyonya collectibles. (Baba-Nyonya is the nickname for the first Chinese settlers in Malaysia.) 38 Lebuh Armenian 60/4-261-8935 edelweisscafe.com.
