KOTA KINABALU: A cafe located on Gaya Street here has pinked up its menu in the spirit of

Hollywood flick "Barbie".

Cafe on Fifty5 marketing and food and beverage director Esther Wong said the idea came from a marketing and branding team from the agency 1OAK, which had worked closely with the eatery.

"We thought it would be fun to have everything in pink! We are offering pink mac and cheese, waffles with pink ice-cream, pink donuts and crepes, and croissants with pink gelato.

"(As for beverages), we have pink vanilla milkshake, pink lemonade and pink iced latte," she said the Barbie-inspired food and drinks range from RM4.90 to RM33," she added.

Not forgetting a tribute to Ken, one of the items on the menu is fries with pink cheese sauce.

Wong said the menu is available until Aug 31.

"We've been getting great response where customers come in decked in pink.

"We also have lots of families bringing their children for a fun experience at the cafe."
