Due to the fact that I'm banned from seafood for two weeks and that basically means that almost 80% of the menu is off limit so I settled for this hearty bowl of beef and rice. The soup from braising the beef has a light, sweet taste to it and it blends well with the bowl of rice. Eventhough it doesn't have the wow factor like the chirashi bowl, but it has a more homey feel to it as if it's home made by our dearest mom.
Hailed as one of the best dessert at its sister cafe, the cempedak spring rolls with vanilla ice cream (RM 15) has made its appearance in the menu here as well. The cempedak blends well with the vanilla ice cream and one plus point is, the vanilla ice cream does not taste like this which you bought off the rack, with heavy vanilla essence aftertaste.
It's summer time and it calls for this beautiful, gorgeous bowl of colourful goodness! Yellowtail, salmon, Hokkaido scallops and salmon mixed with house made dressing. By looking at such colours, wouldn't it make you happy too?
By the name of this dish, who would have thought that the team has incorporated lamb meatballs into this dish. This is definitely a new twist which is a good one as it amazingly blends well with the cheesy omelette. Beside than the new elements incorporated into their brunch menu, their pricing is pretty competitive with no GST and service charge, so, what is not to be loved about this cafe!
Pandan infused pancakes topped with caramelised bananas, cream and shredded coconut. When you have too many western style desserts going round the area, a twist to this traditional flavour would be a good choice since every (almost) Malaysian grew up having pandan being incorporated into their meals. The whole concoction is an orchestra in your mouth with pandan and bananas taking over the stage. This place definitely warrants subsequent visits to try out other interesting items on their menu.
La Boca serves some real wicked chicken wings that a non chicken wings fan like me, was blown away. The selling point for this chicken wings is that the BBQ sauce used is not cloyingly sweet to the point that you have to give up even before finishing a plate. The taste hits the right spot that you don't feel like stopping once you have started. It's a good sharing plate if you dine in among a big group but the price (RM 19.90) is slightly pricey considering the portion.
Famous for dishing out local flavours, our nasi lemak and curry laksa are pretty decent.
When you have craving for something curried, or deep fried breaded pork/chicken cutlets but do not want to battle against the carpark jam or do not wanna break your wallet, this is the place to go! Out of all the set meals, there's only one item which costs more than RM 20 so it means you can have a satisfying meal without spending more than RM 20. Of course, by paying less than RM 20, you can't be expecting Ma Maison's quality but hey, considering the portion, the taste, I would say this place has guaranteed a second visit from me and bf whenever we have the urge to binge on curry!
Specialized in crepes and they do serve up a variety of it to the extent that I has difficulty in deciding in the ones I like. Do expect to share table as it has a huge communal table and due to limited space in the restaurant, it does get very noisy when it's packed full of customers.
This new udon shop has taken over Arata Udon which specialized in udon as well and I'm kinda sad as Arata Udon served really well made udon compared to other players in the market. Luckily, this new kid doesn't disappoint (though I still feel Arata has fared slightly better in the quality of their udon) as their udon is pretty decent but I was quite bummed cos they have ran out of Tamago (RM 7.90) and Onsen Tamago Udon (TM 16.90) so I had to resort to this Udon with Vegetable Fritters (RM 14.90). The vegetable fritters are crunchy but not too oily which is a good news to me as I usually avoid fritters since it will normally be drenched in oil. As for the edamame (RM 5.90) I'm one happy customer with the quality that they served, even though edamame seems to be an unassuming side dish but I always think that a decent plate of edamame is what all Japanese restaurant should master in, as even some of the famed Jap restaurants have their fair share of crappy edamame. All in all, try this restaurant if you have sudden udon craving as all the items served are quite value for money with decent quality to fill up your grumbling tummy!
A true matcha heaven for green tea lover! Its green tea ice cream has a mild hint of bitter after taste which I love as the matcha flavour ice cream that I have tried previously was so sweet that it doesn't have the real green tea taste. However, they have adjusted their pricing after the implementation of GST and a standard partita will set you back by RM 21++, which seems to be quite steep.
Inside Scoop doesn't need more introduction, known to serve unique flavoured ice cream and crispy waffles. This round got to try passion fruit cheesecake, mango and rum & raisin but wasn't quite fond of these flavours. I'm more of a fan of tea flavoured ice cream so their hojicha ice cream is absolute love!
