Talking about NZX at Ara Damansara the other day, we would also like to take the chance to recommend some good food over there. We’ve picked Station 1 Cafe because its packed of people at that day. We felt that the food there won’t go wrong if the restaurant is full of people. Oh and, it has FREE WIFI!
Station 1 Cafe’s style is just like any other Wong Kok or Prince Cafe. I think the only difference here is that they serve beer over here. Hence, this is a good place for people to meet up, chit chat and while they enjoy their beers. No wonder its so packed. This cafe have a number of outlets here at Klang Valley area. They have cafes at Subang Jaya, Puchong, Kuchai Lama and etc etc.

OK, back to the food. The food served here ranges from local malay rice meals, to western to chinese and more. Well, for the first time being here, I’ve decided to try something safe, and ordered a nasi lemak with curry chicken. PP, ordered a spicy fried sauce noodle. We’ve waited for quite some time before being served with the food. I guess they could not cope with the number of orders. Hmm.. should improve on that!
My nasi lemak was served first. The nasi lemak’s fragrant sure makes me more hungry. The curry chicken that’s served with it is just nice, rich in flavor and tender. It also comes with a fried egg, some sambal, ikan bilis and peanuts. This plate of dish also comes with a stick of ota-ota. Hmm.. something new in a plate of nasi lemak.

PP’s noodle tastes good too. Its a little sweet and spicy. The noodle is topped with a dark gravy with minced meats. It also comes with a lot of sliced vegetable and carrot; it certainly looks healthy. The noodle is cooked just right, not too soft and its still has the chewy feel.

Oh, also, Station 1 offers memberships to their patrons. Join their membership and you’ll get to enjoy the benefits such as item redemption, birthday’s special, member’s day special promotion and more. Log on to their website to find out more!

PP came to look for me for lunch today, as we have some things to be settled at Mid Valley. We went to my usual makan place for lunch, the All Star Cafe. This cafe is located at the ground floor, just beside Swatch. I like their set lunches very much. Its served with quality and the portion is not too small either. They change their set lunch menu from time to time so that you won’t feel bored with the food over there.
Luckily they have some set lunches which is lessthanten and I’m able to introduce it here. PP ordered a curry chicken rice, which I’ve recommended to him. As for myself, I wanted to try out their fried fish with marmalade sauce. The curry chicken rice comes with two pieces of chicken, one of them is definitely the very dry breast meat. It also comes with acar, papadum and potatoes.


For my fried fish in marmalade sauce, its sweet and has a little peppery taste. Just like what I wanted. Apart from the sweetness, the fish fillets are fried until its crispy on the outside but not too dry. They also do give you a little bit of vegetable and two pieces of sweetened pineapple. Both our set lunches only costs RM9. For us who are working at mid valley, its very likely that you’ll eat every meals at about ten ringgit.
So, this is especially for those working at mid valley and have not tried all stars cafe. Do visit them and try out the set lunches. Its not that expensive, but they do serve you food with quality! Oh, not to forget, this restaurant is equipped with big tv screens for those sports lovers and they do always screen soccer matches during lunch.

Yes, I know its a little bit late for me to blog about this shop. Who is not familiar about Big Apple Donuts in Malaysia? People often compare it with the JCo Donuts which has lesser chain stores here. Till now, PP and I have not tried any of the JCo Donuts yet. But our house mates and colleagues did have a try at it, and they have the same verdict which is JCo is slightly sweeter than Big Apple. They also said that the dough taste is not as good on the JCo. What do you think?
Well, Big Apple stores are now everywhere, almost all of the big shopping malls. They even have it near my housing area at NZX, Kelana Jaya. Wow. You can check their website for the list of stores, but now I think the site is still under construction.


What I like about this shop is its donuts and PP loves their coffee. Big Apple served ILLY coffee. PP’s all time favorite is the Americano. Their coffee is at an absolutely affordable price and it comes with a free glazed donut. Our favorite donuts are the Alien, Kimochi and also the Glazed one. Their donuts dough are soft and spongy when you bite on it. The flavors are not too strong, and you certainly do get the dough taste out of it. Its not overly sweet, just nice for those who don’t like sweet foods.
For those who have not tried it out, we strongly recommend that you must at try it.
