An offshoot of the more-established Zukkini in Oasis Ara Damansara, Mustardfields proves to be a hidden gem in Mont Kiara. It is actually quite hidden from the main road and you would need to know where exactly to turn in to the carpark and entry into this cafe. It’s located in a standalone building, with welcoming rustic vibes etched in its modern industrial elements of exposed concrete beams, naked brick walls and warm timber accents. We were there for brunch so there … [Read more...]
CALIA – PAVILION BUKIT BINTANG
From its imposingly elegant marble-clad doorway to the cosy simplistic interior, Calia at Pavilion KL is immediately welcoming. Thanks to its spacious décor with natural brightness streaming in through the high windows, we felt very comfortable and this was enhanced by the polite friendly service of the crew. Known for its creative modern Japanese menu, we were so tempted by the range of appealing selections. We kicked off our lunch with 2 of their salads. We … [Read more...]
LE CHOU CHOU CAFÉ, MENJALARA
Located in a mid shoplot in the commercial buzz of Bandar Sri Menjalara, it’s quite amazing to find Le Chou Chou Café – a cosy spot wafting with delicious just-baked aromas and freshly-brewed coffee. With its soothing cream and latte colors theme and high ceilings, this pork-free café is immediately welcoming with its inviting vibes. The café is also pet-friendly – furkids are welcome on the ground floor. Translated, “chou chou” refers to “favourites” or even “darling” in … [Read more...]
TIPSY BOAR, PETALING JAYA
With its simple basic set-up, it’s clear that Tipsy Boar focuses more on its food offerings than having a fancy décor. The place, although rather utilitarian and sparse, does provide comfortable seating for diners to savour the food. Pork Ribs are their signature and the menu specified 3 types: Signature BBQ, Sarawak Black Pepper and Memphis Dry. At RM37 for 2 huge ribs, I would say it’s a decent serving. We could actually smell the smokey aromas wafting from the kitchen while we were … [Read more...]

HAINAN VILLAGE, KOTA KEMUNING
When “Hainan Village” is mentioned, not many people know that it’s a meatless and halal kopitiam/restaurant. However, unlike most Chinese-style vegetarian eateries, Hainan Village’s offering does not just present the usual run-of-the-mill Chinese “dai chow” kind of dishes. Flipping through their menu, we see selections of appetizers, “small eats” (snacks), western items like pasta and burgers and other unique renditions – all of which are plant-based. Some of our favourites here … [Read more...]

ONE CHUN PHUKET
In our last trip to Phuket, we chose to stay in the Old Town area. Usually we would have stayed in the popular Patong Beach area but this time we decided to stay in Phuket Town itself for a change and also because there are better dining options there. One of the most popular restaurants in the Old Town is One Chun. It is almost an institution there and it’s always busy! Located in a 19th century building, this vintage restaurant is appealing with its charming old Chinese … [Read more...]
WARTEK – Indonesian Cuisine in Ara Damansara
This place has been making the rounds in social media lately – Facebook, Instagram, Tik-Tok all have featured Wartek. Opened just a few months ago and located in a rather obscure spot in Ara Damansara, this cosy set-up has been packing in the crowds. We were there for lunch on a week day and the place quickly filled up after 12pm. Most of the dishes have been pre-cooked and served in deep glass dishes at the counter while some of the fried stuff were continuously fried from the … [Read more...]
