Strawberry Fields Cafe

This is a makan-makan place you will have to go either with family or friends. It's relaxed, has a wide variety of food choices from local to western and it's affordable. So far i have only heard of this place in two locations, 1 in Taipan USJ and one more in PJ town.

One night, miss indu, kim and i decided to have dinner in the PJ branch cause it's nearer to where we lived and also it was a very sudden decision to go there. Was because we were coming from Midvalley Megamall and federal highway was just across the road.

You will find that it takes awhile to decide what to eat because they have like 100+++ over choices. Their most popular dish however is anything with butter cream. They have butter cream pasta, chicken, rice, fish...you name it...just the sound of butter cream....mmmmmmmm and their trademark is they add curry leaves to the butter cream dish for flavour instead of using western herbs/leaves.

Therefore, indu took the butter cream spaghetti with chicken. Very very nice. It shows why it is their most popular dish there.

Kim had nasi lemak. Comes with a fried egg instead of hard boil which is good for her cause she went on and on by saying how much she wants "telor mata". Very generous with the peanuts and anchovies. Comes with a piece of chicken rendang.

And i had tomyam fried kuey teow. It wasn't as spicy as i thought it would be. Maybe i should have asked for extra spicey. To me it tasted like a good char kuey teow penang style, not so much of thai tomyam. But indu and kim had a taste of it and they said there is like a teeny bit of thai flavour so i guess there is. Maybe my tastebuds were on holiday that day.

Overall, the portions here are hugantic...none of us finished our food. We went like 3/4 way and could faint already. (note that we are fairly good eaters)
Satisfying, reasonable, nice atmosphere and many choices. Will definately be back to try more!
