The other day I was at Zouk KL around lunch time for the Astro Spinmaster 2 Finale and found myself looking for some food. I found it rather tough finding affordable and nice food around Jalan Ampang area, and ended up at this nice looking restaurant about 150 metres away from Zouk. NZ Garden Cafe is this mamak eatery offering mixed rice and malaysian specialty food.

It was a quick stop before heading back to Zouk so we did not order much, only enough to fill our stomachs. I was rather impressed with the cleanliness and ambience of the whole place. There were already quite a few customers dining there when we arrived.

Check out below on what we had for lunch that day. I took the tandoori chicken because it really looked nice from the kitchen. My partner had the mixed rice which tasted good, while I took the fried maggi mee with an added sunny side up egg,

Overall it was a good meal. At RM21 for two persons, I wouldn't say it's very cheap, but I guess the pricing at KL Mamak Restaurants are normally above average. It's the only eatery nearby Zouk KL for that matter, unless I wanted to hop over to have some of those hotel food.
Looking at the ambiance of the restaurant, i would say RM 21 is cheap. And I love Mee Maggi Goreng max. My fav mamak food.
ReplyDeletePreferring hotel food.. wakaka..
ReplyDeleteThe tandoori chicken looks really yummy! (:
ReplyDeletePlace looks great, impressive...a lot more impressive than the nasi kandar shops in Penang, food looks good...and RM 21.00 is cheap! May even be cheaper than in Penang or the same...and the shops there not even half as nice. Just wondering- what does NZ stand for? Not New Zealand, I'm sure...? LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteThe egg... still raw? I like the design of this outlet.. looks neat...
ReplyDeletethis is good, it's beautify Malaysia and also makes tourist feels that we are organized!
ReplyDeleteOK, now I know where to eat if I am in that area. But why they call it NZ Garden?
