Che Mad's Kitchen, Putrajaya

 

Kao Mongkhol, Bandar Menjalara

Kao Mongkhol is Bandar Menjalara's new spot for Thai rice and noodle specialities, from khao kha moo to khao soi and khanom chin. Duck noodle devotees can devour a rich bowl of chunky-fleshy duck leg with sen lek white rice noodles in dark, deep soy sauce-based broth.

Bread & Bakar, KaMi Residences

Mont Kiara’s new Bread & Bakar burns bright for sun-soaked, sourdough-stacked brunches and BBQ binges.

Try a taster of toast, bagel, croissant or lahmajun with mix-and-match, cross-continental sides like smashed avocado, refried beans, beetroot hummus and baba ganoush. Every element is excellent, rich with a thoughtful balance of salt and smoke, texture and tang.

For a Reuben to really relish, sink your teeth into honest, house-cured salt beef, thick and fork-tender with mustard, sauerkraut and Swiss cheese. One of the neighbourhood’s most satisfying sandwiches.

BBQ is a B&B highlight: Seductively succulent skewers of marinated chicken, tempeh, beef, lamb or sea bass, with Myanmar-inspired lahpet fermented tea rice or Mideast maqluba rice for complete meals.

Also check out oven-fresh bakes like cinnamon rolls with a crackly-flaky twist.

Fun fact: Bread & Bakar in KaMi Residences is by the friendly folks who formerly founded Aman Suria’s Patty & Pie and Sunway 163 Mall’s Crust.
