Hello food lovers out there! How did you spend your precious Saturday? Well, for me, as usual, food hunting is a must during weekends, in fact, everyday. LOL. Today, i am going to talk about one of my gallivanting Saturday in PJ and share with you some awesome-posome findings! Cheers!
After i gotten my seat outdoor, which was quite hard as the crowd was crazy during a Saturday afternoon, i just ordered a single nasi lemak with chicken thigh, the best seller and also the simplest dish. You can add on some dishes like other curry, fish and vegetables, but you have to make your order by queuing inside, which also takes a long time, thanks to all the supportive nasi lemak lovers. Basically, nasi lemak is kind of a staple food for us Malaysian. It consists of a cupful of fragrant rice cooked with santan/coconut milk, sambal/chilli paste, fried chicken thigh, hard boiled egg, anchovies, peanuts, cucumber and more, depends on the creativity of the maker. This is what Village Park's famous nasi lemak looks like.
Judging from the appearance, it already screamed 'EAT ME'! Thank God, all my effort of looking for carpark and waiting did not go to waste because it was really delicious! The rice was full of santan essence, chicken thigh was well seasoned, well cooked and juicy. Sambal was absolutely spicy but good, the rest of the items combined real well together. I was not a fan for nasi lemak, but i don't mind exercising 2 hours in the gym just to get this. Truly satisfying!
Price wise, RM 9 for a plate of nasi lemak is indeed pricey. Parking is always a big problem around PJ Uptown. I would come back to this when i crave for good old Malaysian supper. It is definitely a must for Malaysian to try this, the King of all nasi lemak!

As i always say, a meal is never complete without dessert. Plus, it was almost tea time when we finished our satisfying lunch in Village Park, perfect timing to hide in a cozy cafe, sip some coffee and avoid the horrible heat out there.
So, we found out that their specialty waffle is a must have here in Standing Theory and we ordered a Waffle+Ice Cream, with a cup of Piccolo Latte and Flat White.
I'm sure some of you must be like 'What? Bacon with ice-cream?!'. Yup, that's right guys! This is Standing Theory's specialty waffle, combining both sweet and savory, on top of a piece of extremely crispy waffle. Basically, i find nothing wrong with all the components here. I love the coconut ice-cream, refreshing and creamy. I love the bacon, well who doesn't? I also love the thick gula melaka syrup. When everything was put together, hmmm, not too sure about that. Anyway, i do appreciate the idea behind this creation. Please lovely peeps, give it a try when you visit Standing Theory next time!
Standing Theory offered us a great afternoon experience with great coffee and interesting sweet and salty treats. Pricing was average and service was acceptable. They also offer hot food items as well, might come back next time for their coffee and mains.

First stop: Village Park Nasi Lemak, PJ Uptown
Well, to begin with, i am not exactly a fan of nasi lemak. Not that it is not delicious, but it is the calories and fat content within that keeps me away from it. #girlsproblem #dietsucks Anyway, i decided to gave in and went to this famous nasi lemak restaurant in Damansara Utama just because rumors has it, claiming this to be the best nasi lemak in the whole Klang Valley.After i gotten my seat outdoor, which was quite hard as the crowd was crazy during a Saturday afternoon, i just ordered a single nasi lemak with chicken thigh, the best seller and also the simplest dish.

Second stop: Standing Theory, SS2
As i always say, a meal is never complete without dessert. Plus, it was almost tea time when we finished our satisfying lunch in Village Park, perfect timing to hide in a cozy cafe, sip some coffee and avoid the horrible heat out there.
Since we were near the vicinity, we decided to locate Standing Theory in SS2 to try out their best selling waffle that was said to be very unique. Located on the outskirt of SS2, this cafe might be a little bit tricky to find. No worries, just bring on your GPS, it should bring you to the doorstep.
So, we found out that their specialty waffle is a must have here in Standing Theory and we ordered a Waffle+Ice Cream, with a cup of Piccolo Latte and Flat White.

| Piccolo Latte--RM 9 |

| Excellent quality coffee, might be one of the best milk coffee around this area. |

| Don't ya wanna dig in? |
