Field Report No 4.

 After cleared my Base Cx last night, Felt like being released from a mountain of excruciating burden.....A modest celebration with the love ones is a must. So after , loitering around Section U5 Shah Alam. Suddenly I remembered an outlet in Kota Damansara , which I had sampled sometimes ago last year with my partner in crime , Mr Rahmatullah of MPV Proservice.....

BORAK-BORAK CAFE

Standing in the end lot of The Strand , Kota Damansara newly celebrated township, this restaurant humbly named Borak-Borak Cafe owned by Mr Fandy & Wives (if you know what I mean...respect!) With lavishly but simply decorated really catch my eyes. The tables really mimics meja rumah dato' making it irresistible to leave the sits. hehehheh. The Theme of this outlet is a fusion of Thai with the touch of western styled presentation ….Relaxing environment with a choice of outdoor sitting. Occasionally it’s also a venue for Soccer Lovers.

First impression on the menu ,  choices of dishes are well organized and well categorised. The price ranging from RM4 to RM8 for stirfried items and there are also special items like asam pedas and varieties of seafood cooking. Surprisingly the price of the drinks a quite cheap base on the local Kota Damansara standard.  And this meal that I had sampled scorecard as as follows:-

Simple and Nice fried rice for ‘simple’ person like me…. Basically the rice are cooked as per SOP, nice done with full flavor & color, accompanying Fried Chicken with Kunyit are succulent with a crispy outer layer. For a fire eater like me, a portion of Sambal Belacan for extra kick is a must.The soup was full bodied with flavour with a tinged of Thai herbs not like other hot water with soup smell....
hahah

Comments from my other half, the meal is delicious and sure won’t embarrassing Hong Kong people… Served best when Hot. It would be nicer if more koay teow noodles rather than the condiments.

Actually I’ve ordered 2 plates for Syamil, It’s when that I detected the portion size  are different. The first one are lesser than the second one…Aikkk? Maybe the cook had being using different rice cups kut? Other than that everything was nice and acceptable.

As a wrap up, Borak-Borak Café really lived by its name..a cosy yet casual place for borak-borak with a touch of fine dining. Looking forward to sample other attractive cuisine offered. Fandy & Nana all the best for your Venture De’Cuisine. Good & Polite Crew you both have. Train and treasure them well, They’ll bring Luck to your business.
