If you love verdant cafes where plants vastly outnumber people, Florescence by World of Phalaenopsis is worth the 45-minute drive from KL's city centre to Ulu Yam. Waddling ducks welcome you to this pondside paradise, nestled in an orchid farm where summer seems abloom all year round.
Florescence's kitchen is modest, but its fried bee hoon with chicken rendang is worth every tasty bite (RM12.90). We couldn't resist snacking also on a punny plate of Hulu Yam Cake (RM7.90), paired with a pitcher of iced lemon tea to refresh us after the journey here.
