Pre-futsal dinner at the Junction

SP and I hardly ever go to town (read - Komtar area) on weekdays, but yesterday was an exception. We were heading to Kick Cafe where our colleagues were having a futsal competition. But first, we had to have dinner.

We decided on Junction Cafe, a quaint restaurant in a modernised colonial building. More establishments should utilise these colonial buildings instead of tearing these historical buildings down and replacing them with dull drab "modern" buildings.

The menu was quite sparse, but the selection consists of popular dishes. I had the Pineapple Fried Rice, SP had Nyonya Fried Rice and shutterjam had "mee suah tow".

The fried rice dishes were simple. Nothing to see here, move along. But shutterjam's "mee suah tow" looked mighty appetizing.

I liked my Ais Kacang dessert although I didn't fancy the nutmeg. Some people like nutmeg. I'm not one of them. Nutmeg discrimination aside, the Ais Kacang was rather nice. Not too sweet yet still tasty and refreshing.


Junction Cafe was filled with Chinese paintings, sculptures, Chinese calligraphy, all for sale if something catches your eye.
