Kimosasa @ Plaza Low Yat

Kimosasa is a fast and convenient food store located at the lower ground floor in Plaza Low Yat. And it appears to be the only vegetarian food store in Plaza Low Yat, thus it is certainly a pit stop station for people who are vegetarians while shopping for IT gadgets in Plaza Low Yat😎 The store is very small scale where only a few customers can fit in a time.  No idea where else they would shift customers to where there's a crowd🤔 Kimosasa offers variety type of cuisine like rice set, burgers, sandwiches, pizza and salads. Chicken Burger (RM11.90) Do not expect too much on it as the overall was just OK👌 Typical vegetarian patty which is made from starch was not too appetizing, glad they are generous in serving vegetables like lettuce, tomato, cucumber and bake egg to make it more tasteful. There's something about the fries that impressed me a lot! *will reveal later*😈 Kimochi Gohan (RM12.90) Kimochi Gohan is defined by Japanese cu

PuRe Space 朴乐空间 @ Klang

There's a cozy and relaxing little corner in the bustling city- Klang.  PuRe Space is located in one of the residential area in Klang, though it's quite outskirt but it is growing in popularity, you can easily access to the place via Waze. 朴乐 in defined as simple and fun.

It was actually a corner house with plenty of parking space. I was deeply in love with the interior design to the extent once I step into the place I start photographing everywhere. I'm not being exaggerating, but every corner in PuRe Space was simply photogenic!😍 They are selling some hand made merchandise, books, calendars, mainly to promote Chinese culture. 

Probiotic Supplement- do you really need it?

Probiotic is a type of 'good' bacteria which helps in digestion and protects your body from 'bad' bacteria.  Prebiotic is non-digestible carbohydrate which acts as nutrient for probiotic to survive.  Probiotic and prebiotic are a combination which benefit each other. For example, fermented dairy products, such as yogurt and kefir, contain live bacteria (probiotic) and the fuel (prebiotic: lactose, fruits) they need to thrive. There are many types of bacteria which are classified as probiotics, but majority strains are originated from two groups: 1. Lactobacillus:  This is the most common probiotic which can be found in yogurt and other fermented foods. Different strains can help with diarrhea and may help with people who can't digest lactose (milk sugar). 2. Bifidobacterium: Can be found  in some dairy products. It may help ease the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and some other conditions. Studies have shown that probiotics can help in:

City Garden Veggie Cafe @ Kepong

City Garden Veggie Cafe located in Taman Usahawan, Kepong (shop lots opposite AEON Kepong). They serve a wide variety of menu selection, including local and western delicacies, snacks, and even steamboat set. This is not the first time I dine in City Garden Veggie Cafe. I would drop by here to have lunch/dinner almost all the time when I go to Kepong. I personally think this is one of the best (in term of foods and environment) and affordable vegetarian cafe in Kepong. Their specialty is the '2 TASTE IN A BOWL'. In case you're having dilemma on whether to order curry noodle or tomyam noodle, opt for this so you could have both together😍 Their western burgers are also worth recommending, each of them were distinctive and you'll wish to order all of them👍 Soup Noodles with Dried Noodles (RM10.90) Both of them taste just okay, nothing outstanding😅 Among all 2 TASTE IN A BOWL, I would rather recommend the 'Curry Noodles
