RAYs
RAYs at Steppes Mont Kiara is their second home following the first outlet in PJ’s B.LAND. Here, they serve all-day comfort food, including burger, brunch dishes and indulgent milkshake.
A quick glance at the menu makes one thing pretty obvious – the burgers are the star of the show. There is a generous selection to choose from, each sounding pretty tempting. But the rosti was what caught our attention.
One thing I really liked is that each dish on the menu comes with its nutritional breakdown – showing the amount of protein, fats and carbohydrates. It is indeed a nice touch, especially for those who are on gym and people who like keeping track on their macros.

Hillside DouDou
This is their second home after their original outlet in SS4 – which, embarrassingly, I still have not visited LOL #failme.
By day, Hillside DouDou serves up coffee, baked bread and pastries, and also expands to hot food offerings. Come evening, they will transform into GlouGlou at DouDou, a steakhouse concept specializing in aged-meat. Ahh, I would love to try out their evening menu too!

It was a cold, rainy evening when we were hunting for dinner in Kanazawa. However, every restaurant we went to didn’t accept walk-ins. We walked from the station through several streets, but every place required reservations. Eventually, we stumbled upon this standing yakitori bar, and …
