This dessert shop is making waves in the Damansara Uptown area. And I can totally understand why. I have also become a fan of this place! This is where people go, after meals, if they want some good desserts. The menu is simple - just a combination of hot and cold desserts, served with sprinkling of Taiwanese, Korean, Chinese and also local styles and flavours. Think shaved ice, boba, jelly, popping pearls, sweet potato and taro balls … sound familiar? This casual sweet eatery is run by Pei … [Read more...]
PUDU CHAN FATT WANTON MEE @ Damansara Utama
When Megan Wong left her job as a Financial Controller and said goodbye to the corporate world, she decided to revive her family’s heritage wanton noodles business. If you are older than me and has been a true-blue KLite, you’d probably know about Chan Fatt Wanton Mee in the Pudu wet market. Megan’s parents – the late Woon Poon and his wife, Lee Yit Yee started the business as a small stall in 1955 (imagine, that’s during the British era!). They sold only wanton noodles with char siu and sui gao … [Read more...]
THE TANG ROOM – tantalising Cantonese cuisine at The Starling
The Starling Mall is fast becoming one of the more popular residential malls in Damansara Utama, thanks to its line-up of interesting tenants and eateries. To me, the draw is of course the Tang Room, the latest baby from the Oriental Group of Restaurants. With their sister restaurants - Ming Room and Han Room (and the Nobles and Orientals properties) firmly established in the F&B scene here, it’s not surprising that the Tang Room has now joined the stable. Occupying several lots … [Read more...]

M1STAR CAFE, Damansara Utama
M1Star is a no-frills eatery in Damansara Uptown run by a husband-and-wife team. Its menu features predominantly Western-Japanese food with special focus on their house-made sauces. Most of the mains are also served in sets with rice and drink packaged in – such a boon for busy people around that area. On days when you just want to have a simple tasty meal without too many decisions made, M1Star’s set meal selections would come in handy. But before we got to the mains, we couldn’t … [Read more...]
NOSH UP @ The Atria Shopping Gallery, Damansara Jaya
After considerable success from their 1st outlet in Jaya Shopping Centre, Nosh Up recently opened at the Atria Shopping Gallery. Much like its sister outlet, the decor is similar – simple, casual with some rustic touches here and there. The menu is also similar, offering regular cafe dishes with some twists. I believe there has also been some adjustments in the execution of some of their dishes, working on feedback garnered from the Jaya Shopping Centre cafe. Take the Lamb Pie (RM24), … [Read more...]
Epicuro @ Damansara Uptown – delectable porky bites!
“Where would you recommend for a good meal?” I often get asked this perennial question. I usually drill further to find out what particular cuisine the person has in mind before giving any recommendation. These days, if someone asks me where to go for some casual dining, western-style, I find myself saying unreservedly “Epicuro”! Ever since I checked them out a couple of months ago, I have been back there a few times. What draws me back to this simple unassuming little restaurant is … [Read more...]
