Ba Xian Vegetarian Court @ Kepong

I've seen many people recommending this vegetarian court in Kepong, the pictures looked so tempting so I decided to give it a try. The food court located in a remote area from Kepong town.  But you'll find it pretty 'happening' once you reach there, there is live concert everyday in the centre of the court. It's a good place for chit-chat and supper especially after a long day at work. Ba Xian Vegetarian Court is located in a corner of the Sun City Food Court. It's very easy to find by the big red banner. Fish head meehun (S) - RM7.00 I ordered the smallest size but the portion is even large enough for 2 pax.

So I've came across a video which describes the hidden tragedy of the cows in a dairy farm 👇 https://www.facebook.com/chwh0707/videos/1420675118018686/?hc_ref=ARTmSEJWY0cDGRFK0z3Ne7Uilxz45gnSWnq8kxzXlMbdOn3bi_FMXgX2AqvkIrvi4Ow&pnref=story Though I believe not all dairy farms operate that way, I still feel pity and guilty after watching it and it drives me to do a thorough study about alternative calcium sources if I'm ready to give up all dairy products.  Calcium is vital for  strong bones and teeth , but it goes beyond that. This mineral also helps the body maintain healthy blood vessels, regulate blood pressure, and even prevent insulin resistance (which could lead to Type 2 diabetes). If you are adopting plant-based diet, you can still get over 500mg of calcium a day without worrying about it. Below is a chart showing the calcium content of a sample of many types of plants, with whole milk listed for comparison. FOOD (AMOUNT) CALCIUM (MG) Whole milk...

LOVE LIFE DESSERT @ Rawang

Love Life Dessert (蜜爱堂.甜品) was launched about 1 year back, serving mainly on dessert, such as smoothies, seaweed bird-nest, black sesame paste, matcha and etc. Apart from that they also serve some creative main dishes such as  Signature "Grandmum Green Rice Nasi Lemak", pumpkin spaghetti, pumpkin soup noodle, pita bread with blueberry sour and spicy sauce vege chicken and etc. The interior design of the cafe, together with the lighting and the jazz music make up a pretty good place for mentally unwind after a long day. Even thoughtful enough to serve free lemon juice (and FREE REFILL) to every table, regardless of what have you ordered! Simply ❤ this concept so much! FYI lemon juice is rich in Vitamin C and it helps in digestion and detoxification. Lets start with their Signature "Grandmum Green Rice Nasi Lemak" (RM7.50) . It comes together with hard boiled egg, cucumber slices, papadom, sunflower seeds, fried chicken substitutes and samba...
