As for izakaya bites, there are some interesting one like mashed potato with cod roe, steamed potato topped with butter and salted squid, mapo tofu, and Chinese century eggs. Tummy fillers are available too! Somen, Zhajiangmian, Rice with Roasted Pork and Egg and also the simplest but comforting Raw Egg Over Rice, worry less for not getting full with just gyoza and bites.

Juicy, meaty and busting with flavours.

Mimi Daifuku 米米福

Nestled in Kota Damansara, Mimi Daifuku is a Japanese-influenced café specializing in the Japanese wagashi Daifuku. This little café is really cute and zen-ish. Filled with bamboo and lush green surrounding; make you feel as though you are in a zen garden, sipping tea and pair it up with their special wagashi. Very insta-worthy.
