Lawn Garden Cafe, Cheras

Flowers and leaves offer fertile inspiration for Lawn Garden Cafe’s recipes - the Lei Cha Pasta fuses Chinese and Italian traditions, featuring bigoli whole wheat pasta tossed in a mild ground tea sauce that's the Hakka equivalent of pesto, its earthy nuances bolstered by plenty of fresh vegetables (RM18.90). Also nutritionally sensible: Blue rice, naturally tinted with butterfly pea flower, rounded out with juicy, almond-showered grilled chicken and more fibre-rich veggies with a vivid crunch (RM16.90).

Tea makes a final encore in the cafe’s star dessert, a milky-frosty ice-blended paired with a potent punch of matcha. Meanwhile, fruits shine in rejuvenating chocolate and caffeine-based beverages - bananas are blended into an irresistibly creamy chocolate shake with a pinch of salt (RM14), while a splash of lemonade spikes up the cold-brewed coffee (RM9.90). These drinks are chilled, but service is warm.
