Recently a reader emailed and asked us to write more about non fancy restaurants/cheap eats around KL. Well, it is a misconception that we only go for tai-tai-ish high teas, cafes and fine dining though I must admit that we tend to post more about these places as the pictures always turned out better. We also go back to our favourite cheap eats again and again and again, sometimes 2-3 times over a … [Read more...]
There's no denying that Swich Cafe's mangosteen cake is one of the most photographed cake in KL recently.

Last month, our rainy day cravings were especially bad and fortunately for us, a dear friend recommended Jalan Sentul's nasi lemak and thus we decided to give it a try. He forewarned us about the long queue as soon as the … [Read more...]

Ask any KL-lites for the best siu yoke in town and 8 out of 10 of them will mention Wong Kee! Finding this place was quite a challenge, if you are not familiar with the Pudu area.

I wouldn't necessarily call it a "hidden gem," but it is certainly off the radar of many … [Read more...]
