D'Laksa @ IOI City Mall

The 'Food Junction' foodcourt at the top floor of IOI City mall. It looks different from a few years ago.

These days, it’s common to see stalls selling malatang, Chinese Muslim (halal) food, and Indonesian ayam gepuk. Gone are the days of mixed rice and local fried dishes.

Nothing really appeals to me. So I went to AEON supermarket food court to continue my food hunt.

aha....D'Laksa!

Ordered a combo of asam laksa with cendol drink.

Waited for 10 minutes coz the staff was busy preparing for a large Grabfood 'delivery order'.

Both the asam laksa and cendol were just so-so....

The broth is not that spicy and abit diluted compared to last time.

There are a lot of other outdoor eateries with bistro-style & alfresco dining in IOI City Mall. These are mostly open at noon until late night (for bistro) which caters for the nearby hotel tenants. Before the pandemic, I used to have team dinner at this place. It was quite happening at night.

The pattern on the ceiling looks like a long snake. Don't you think so?

Braised chicken drumstick, tofu and egg with rice. Bought from the weekly pasar malam. Quite big portion. Taste good too. 

This stall also sells lu rou fan (minced pork rice).

Will buy this again.

Unagi (eel) with omelet rice from AEON supermarket. Can't remember the exact price (somewhere between RM10-14) but still it is way cheaper than dine-in in Japanese restaurant where a bowl of unagi rice would usually costs above RM30.

will definitely buy this again😀
