Jien and I spotted The Farm Foodcraft in Bangsar South slightly over a month ago, when we were walking around the vicinity after dinner. Since we’d already eaten, we told ourselves we’d give this place a shot another time. That time came a few weeks later, when we met up with some friends for lunch.
My second attempt to dine at Sunbather Coffee at The Sphere in Bangsar South required effort. We had a good experience at the café first time around and wanted to return to check out more of what they have to offer. Alas, there was an issue with electricity and they couldn’t serve customers when we...
My in-laws are adventurous when it comes to food – they are constantly exploring new places to eat, much more than Jien and I do these days. In a way, they have become the food radar for this blog; updating me on their new discovery weekly. Lubuk Bangku in Bangsar is one of those places [] The post...
Bangsar South is fast becoming a hub for food and coffee, given the recent opening of restaurants and cafés including the renowned Forty Hands Coffee from Singapore. Jien has been eyeing this place since we caught wind of its opening some time in February this year and finally got down to checking them out...
Eating healthier has come more naturally to me these days; my father jokes that I’m slowly but surely morphing into my mum. It was my yoga instructor that recommended Fittie Sense to me as I’m supposed to refrain from sinful food after a workout session. Fittie Sense is located in Bangsar Baru and...
Chocolates and desserts have always been Jien’s thing – he has a weaker spot for sweet treats compared to me. That’s also why our fridge at home is stocked with chocolates from our trips abroad. When we did BB10 last November, it was apt to have a dessert table with chocolates as a feature and...
Bangsar is a popular spot when it comes to café-hopping because most cafes are located along the same street or at the very most, a short drive from each other. From hipster cafes to pretty- looking ones, here are five Instagram-worthy cafes I recently checked out in my hood. Tiny Temptress Tiny Temptress...
My father in-law frequents the FB establishments at APW quite regularly with his group of friends and seems more up to date with the food scene than I am. Proof Pizza + Wine at APW has been on Jien’s to-try list for quite some time, but I wasn’t as keen because my father in-law told [] The...
The interior of Fancy Breakfast Club reminds me of what youd find on a kinfolk magazine – minimal yet put together, with an etched feature wall to add to the dining ambiance. Jien and I popped by for brunch after my yoga class, after hearing about the breakfast club’s version 3.0 from friends.
My siblings and I spent a lot of my childhood along Jalan Bangkung – where my parents would take us to the park nearby to cycle and rollerblade. The Bangkung Row used to be office lots before it became an FB hub, and has become one of my go-to places for a good night out. [] The post Lucky Bo,...
The corner lot spot in Lucky Garden Bangsar has changed establishments several times, where Balas Banana Leaf is now an occupant. Bangsar currently has quite a number of banana leaf rice restaurants possibly to cater to the demands of the residents in the area. It was just recently when...
If I could pick just one item to eat at Botanica + Co, it would be Sam’s Crab Crayfish Laksa. This new spot in Bangsar South is all the rage at the moment, commanding a rather impressive lunch crowd when I went, twice. The laksa has a thick and aromatic broth, with laksa pesto [] The post...
Hong Kong Hot Pot in Telawi Square Bangsar is relatively new but it’s often packed when it opens for business at night. It was my second visit to this small establishment – without a booking, you might have to wait for a table. I’ve been wanting to return since my first visit slightly over a []...
rif and I try to make sure we go for date nights at least once a fortnight despite our busy schedules, though we sometimes miss out because of work/blog commitments. We both decided on Maria’s Steak Café in Bangsar on our recent date night because it was one of the places in Bangsar we haven’t...
Edo Ichi in Bangsar South looks just like any other chain Japanese restaurants in town – I believe they have an outlet in Publika but the one at Nexus Bangsar South is easier for me to access for obvious reasons. The menu is extensive, with set meals and bento boxes that are pretty good value []...
Kuriya Japanese Restaurant in Bangsar Shopping Centre has plenty to offer, from the freshest sashimi cuts to handmade soba. The ambiance is semi-casual – where lighting is somewhat dim and the mood, zen-like. I was invited to try a specially created 5-course menu by Chef Nakagawa San, comprising sashimi,...
Portofino in Bangsar happens to be one of the Italian restaurants I frequent – clearly because of the location and mostly because I find the ambiance ideal and food, decent. Pricing is fairly reasonable considering the location and service on most of my visits have been consistent. Almost as consistent as...
There was no air of pretense at Ngam in Bangsar when I stepped in for a casual dinner session last week. The setup is basic, almost no frills, and the menu is straightforward and honest. I will admit though, the decor played no part in my interest towards Ngam. It was their creamy tomyum noodles []...
I love a good beef burger – a simple one, juicy and nicely browned all over, with just a bit of seasoning to allow me to enjoy the essence of the beefiness. But I love more is a jazzed up version, with cheese, egg, bacon and even better, an additional patty. That was exactly what [] The post...
Southern Rock Seafood in Bangsar no doubt serves the freshest oysters and seafood I can find in Klang Valley. I’ve been getting my seafood supply from them regularly, especially since rif and I dine at home more regularly these days. On special occasions, I would get them to shuck a dozen of their best...
