If we worked in Q Sentral, we'd be pretty pleased that Gwaku opened recently in this office building, offering lunch specials from both East & West that seem to change daily to keep everyone excited each afternoon.
On our visit, a tender roast leg of chicken with potatoes, carrots & peas (RM13.90) was the popular choice, sold out by 1pm, leaving stragglers with ayam masak merah, begedil, acar nanas-timun & rice (RM9.90; add RM3 for a sambal hard-boiled egg & RM1 to upgrade to brown rice). Soul food to match the Malay-language meaning of Gwaku's official pronunciation (Jiwa Ku).
You'll also find an array of kuih-muih, from bingka ubi, lepat pisang & pulut panggang to cucur badak & talam seri muka. We like the kuih ulat bulu, a glutinous creation of yam, mung beans, coconut, sesame & peanuts.
