[Food] Le' Gardenz Cafe, Balakong, Seri Kembangan

A few months a ago, me and my sis had spotted a special building made of "container" along Balakong highway, which is opposite of Taming Jaya residence. Last week, we got to know from the ads in the  newspaper that it is apparently a new opening cafe. The ads came with a RM 10 voucher for our first try.

Squeezing some spare time in the weekend, we went to have our lunch with mum at this place. I kinda like the way they design the cafe in the container house, simply trendy. 

                           


The first floor has some open areas for seating, with fan, which will be more suitable for a hang-out at night, but definitely not during the daytime. Luckily, the container house at the second floor are equipped with air-con. 

We are required to place a seat first, to get the seat number, and then order at the counter. I think they try to manage in a way like those self-service style, but as a customer, I would prefer just to be served right in front of my seat. Haha.

Canopy open area at the first floor


Lovely garden deco along the seating area

There is a corner for bakery, good choices over the menu food if you're aiming for a light meal only.

At second floor, there is two container houses, each with four to five seats. Surprisingly, the sound insulation is quite good in this small space. At least there is no much of echo sound.

A corner with sofa seats, nice for two person.

Nice wall art

The inner look of the container house
I love it, arts made of needle and wool, creative!

The outdoor has a giant transformer, hehe

Ok, goes to the food part. The menu actually has not much of the varieties and choices, maybe it's because it's still new.

The Lava rock salad with grilled chicken is quite delicious, with a strong taste of sesame in the sauce. I did enjoy it a lot.

Lava rock salad with grilled chicken, RM 7.90
Lava rock burger is the signature food in Le' Gardenz Cafe. The chicken meat is plain in taste, I think they want you to try to match with the three sauces provided (or they are for the french fries?) -- chili sauce, soybean paste sauce (豆瓣酱), and another one hmm...a BBQ sauce? I failed to recognise it. Lol. Overall, the burger is tasted nice with adequate of vegetable and cheese.

Three sauces provided

                               
When come to order the drink, I am a bit disappointed for not having hot chocolate in the menu. At least a flat white could please me. But neither them in the menu. We ordered mochaccino and cappuccino, the taste was so-so (Bias comment of a typical not-a-coffee-lover, LOL).

Mochaccino, RM 9.50

Capuccino, RM 7.50

 It is a place worth to go for a small gang gathering or with family.

[Food] Thai Express, The Mines, Seri Kembangan

If you are tiring of fast food when you are hunger for food, you will look for something express and hence I had decided to try this restaurant. 

Not as fast as those fast food restaurant but shorter waiting time to enjoy hot dish and rice. 

First glance at the shop front menu ~ big and easy


Signature dish of Thai Express

Thai Dessert


Photo shoot of restaurant while waiting for my order!

Not much customers as they were just opened.

Set lunch ~ Khao Gai Phat Krapow ( RM9.90)
Rice with stir-fried minced chicken

Cold Lemon Grass - Just top up RM 2 for set lunch


Quick lunch set! Served with watermelon too!

The dish that can't be missed when eating Thai Food ~ Tom Yam Soup with prawn (RM 9.90)

The first thought of this soup was not spicy because it's looked so clear. You will feel it's spiciness as soon as you drink the first sip. 

The menu indicates the spicy level was just 1 chili. I can't imagine for the 2 or 3 chili level.

[Food] Butter Up Pastry @ Seri Kembangan, Selangor

It was rare to have some theme-like special restaurants opened around the area of Seri Kembangan, a near-to-town Hakka Kampung Cina. Not saying that Seri Kembangan was a rural-like undeveloped area, in fact, it has plenty of home-based nice Chinese food as well as the branches of the hyper-restaurants.  

When I first saw Butter Up, what makes me stunted is the design of this restaurant, a refreshing Holland countryside style. With the wooden decoration and blue-white cotton sofa seats, the restaurant gives a tone of cosy and warm feelings, which is a very good place to have the gathering with family and friends.

The food overall is nice and delicious. Counting are the western sandwiches, salads, pastas, and pizzas. The prices are moderate, ranged from RM 6 ++ to RM 21 ++.  
Smoked salmon sandwich (RM 11.00)
Mummy best choice's for kids (RM 13.00)


Smoked salmon lies on pizza (RM 21.00)

Riped tomatoes on the beach (RM 6.80)
Pasta - Chicken eats tomato (RM 12.90) 
Pasta - Creamy chicken (RM 13.90)

These are the best seller drinks, the chef makes them freshly everyday into the big junks. I especially love the Summer Lemonade, very refreshing.

Left: Summer lemonade (RM 5.00), Right : Seasonal lemonade (RM 5.00)


They are using Illy coffee, which is one of the famous brands. The cappuccino is served with finger cookie, an adorable spoon-shaped and taste like digestive biscuits. Nice!

Cappuccino (RM 6.80)

There is a bakery corner selling healthy artisan breads. I especially love the honey milk bread, however this bread is only on sale occasionally.


Cake section. What I can say is, their cakes still need a big room to improve the texture taste but the outlooks are attractive.
