Purelife Organic

This organic shop in Kajang also serves a delicious meal.  Naturally, all ingredients were organic vegetables.  The vegetarian meal left us all feeling full without the guilt of eating meat :)

IMAG0160 Salad – fresh greens with light mayonaise

IMAG0168

Coleslaw – absolutely yummy.

IMAG0165

Fried rice – a treat for the whole family.

IMAG0167

Spaghetti bolognese – minus meat of course.  The tomato paste was very fresh and light.

IMAG0172 

Rojak – a typically fresh Malaysian concoction of mixed fruits blended with dark sauce and lots of crushed peanuts. YUMMY!

Restoran Hakka Ren, Bandar Mahkota Cheras

IMAG0726

This unassuming restaurant in Bandar Mahkota Cheras (facing Jusco) serves delightfully delicious meals.  Prices are reasonable and the taste is very similar to a home-cooked meal!

IMAG0717Sweet and sour chicken – a family favourite.  The mildly flavoured sauce was topped with a generous helping of pineapples, cucumber, capsicum.   It went very well with plain rice.

IMAG0718

Yong tau foo – ample amount of fish paste stuffed in the brinjal and tofu pieces.  The accompanying brown sauce was tasty and complemented this dish.

IMAG0719

Stewed pork with seasoned vegetables – alas, this was a disappointment as the meat was not left to boil in the gravy long enough for it to absorb the taste.

IMAG0724

Stir fried sweet potato leaves – a simple, fresh, fuss-free dish.

Service was good as we were the only occupants on a quiet Saturday afternoon.  Food and ambience comfortable for the whole family.  Worthy of repeat visits.

One Pot Cafe, Seri Kembangan

This restaurant is tucked in the corner of busy main street.  If not for the huge signage from the main road which points to the restaurant, one would never have known it existed below some shophouses.

Once inside though, the cozy ambience is a pleasant change from the hustle and bustle of the busy road.

 

IMAG0635

Iced lemon drink and green tea

IMAG0630

Salted Vege Taiwanese Noodle – an acquired taste but tasty nonetheless.

IMAG0632

   Stir-fried chicken and ginger – this dish was simple and tasty.

So if you are on the lookout for a quiet retreat within bustling Seri Kembangan town, head on over to this restaurant for quick tummy filler.
