JB Food

[Grago]

I tried before sometimes back. Didn't know the standard drop. Maybe the boss which has another coffee shop further down (opposite Petronas) make money and don't rather care this. Noticed that there are quite a number of eateries nearby eg S11 business seem so good. FYI, there are two newly open seafood restaurants behind the stretch of shoplot , same row as S11..

Thanks for the Infor..

Hi all

This weekend might go taman molek jalan jalan , any gd food to recommend ?

Thanks

[tonto]

I went to Taman Molek last weekend. A friend brought me to try this cafe My Liberica. The swiss roll (coffee flavour) is not bad. Its more a lifestyle cafe if you like coffee culture. A few shops away from this cafe there is a steamboat place. Did not try it but there was a large crowd. Unless I went to the wrong side of Taman Molek, the area does not appear as 'hip' as what I read in other parts of this forum. In fact, when we drove back to Sutera Mall area, my friends likened the Sutera area to Bangsar of KL (I never been to Bangsar so dont know how it looks like). They liked the buzz and the higher 'hip' factor. But maybe you will have a different adventure at Taman Molek. And while you are at Taman Molek, can check out SSF. Some of the home stuff are nice and reasonably priced. I also headed to Persada Johor to view the Homedec fair. That area gave me the creeps but managed to get much brochures for home reno.

Haha I happen to know Taman Molek reasonably well. These are some of the eateries you can consider. I have not included the more obvious ones like Secret Recipe, Old Town, Lavender, Tutti Frutti, and Baskin Robbins.........

Try the mille crepe cake here, which are OEM from a home-based baker.

Overall, in terms of vibrancy, I think Taman Molek currently loses out to Austin and Sutera areas (No Blackball, Overtime, Library etc). However, Berinda is building a "Little Japan' township near the Molek Pines condos.

Perhaps it will be more vibrant when 'Little Japan' and the 2 other shophouse areas are built (1 opp. UOB at Ponderosa and the other 1 opp. Johor Jaya Police Station).

Thanks Tonto & Redsynwa for the great info!

I was at Maco Cafe & Bakery in Sutera yesterday. The mille crepe cakes were sooo good. Made from Hokkaido milk and butter, its rich, creamy and fresh yet do not leave a heavy fill after eating it. I had the caramel coffee cake while my friend had the strawberry cake. Both were good. The biscotti that came with the coffee was thin and crisp and flavourful. Too bad they don't sell them in packs. Iced lemon tea with the right blend of tea flavour, lemon and sugar was one of the better ones I have tried so far. The only gripe I have is the price tag. Cakes were MYR 8.50 a piece, ice lemon tea and coffee MYR 7.50 each, total damage came up to MYR 32. Like the free wifi, cold aircon and high ceilings, especially on a very hot afternoon like yesterday.

Yes you are right, CoCo.

The hot sun dazzled my eyes and confused my memory. We were both hungry when we passed by and it was not ready to serve yet. So we went to Lu Bang to try. Not exactly the "Lor" that I like. Dark and 入味 is my preferred. Lu Bang has Duck tongue, feet, neck and one more stewed in this way but we are not fans of them.
