#kualalumpurtrip Came across this Manman cafe located in Bandar Menjalara, decided to step in and have a try! We ordered their latte and notice the quality was at upper standard compare to any other cafe out there. Their decoration is rather simple, muji and a little bit of industrial, a place that you can relax totally and spend easily a couple hours here doing your things on phone.

#kualalumpurtrip Q House located in Bandar Menjalara in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur. This restaurant has been here for a couple years and noticed it is still standing strong amongst all the restaurant in this area. We decided to come over during one of the late night around 9pm, and notice they are still open. They offer vegetarian food option where we had their fried noodle, sukiya and also herbal tea, totally worthwhile!

#traveldiaries Having lunch at Hong Kong Noodle Kepong is a delightful experience, with braised beef tripe noodle being the highlight. The beef tripe is tender and flavourful, and when paired with the restaurant’s Hong Kong-style chili oil, it adds a superb kick that enhances the dish. Alongside the savoury noodles, the egg tart is a perfect sweet contrast with its flaky crust and smooth custard filling. The Hong Kong-style coffee, strong and slightly sweet, ties the meal together, making it an enjoyable and well-rounded lunch. I have visited this restaurant few times, their wanton mee also delicious especially the prawn wanton, yummy!

The beef is usually tender, sliced thin, and cooked to perfection, often with a bit of fat for extra flavor.

#weekendgetaways This shop instantly become one of my snacking places after our first try. They offer a few flavour options from Original, Spicy Lamb, Caramel, Butter Cinnamon and Red Bean, I personally love the Original one! Not just that, they also serve own branding dry noodle and also beverages (Oolong tea, Cold Brew and Dessert Drink). This shop is just located in Menjalara and can be easily found, with many other shops surrounding it!

#weekendgetaways Over the weekend, we decided to come to one of our favourite Vegetarian Restaurants - Veggie Century that serves scrumptious food! Not just the food but also their signature Wolfberry Logan drink, you can notice there is 1 cup on every table. We came many times and this was our first time order others in the menu - Tofu set and fried laksa, turn out to be great! The tofu is deep fried to perfection and the fried laksa come with very fragrant fried egg, this is all we are expecting and it is served on the table!
