I have never been to Johor in my life (except going through the check-points on the way to Singapore, so I guess that doesn't count), but this year itself, I have been to the state more than 5 times. Recently whilejalan-jalan cari makan (meaning, roaming around for food) in JB, I found this eclectic looking cafe. The peculiar name got me really curious - Flower in the Window. In a glance, one might mistaken this cafe as a plant shop. The front shop is decorated with lushest potted plants that you definitely won't miss when passing by Jalan Dhoby.



We were awed with the entire interior design of the cafe that we couldn't resist to stop by for cakes despite just had a filling lunch at Roost Cafe down the road.



The foods are highly inspired by flowers and of course, you can find some hints of flower ingredients in their cooking as well. Their specialties are the variety of breads. Do check out the bread section on the menu.



My favourite pick from the drinks menu is the rosemary, chilli & lemon. Sounds weird? The taste is . acceptable and pretty refreshing. The chilli flakes are added to tickle your buds and not spicy at all.



Half of the first floor is catered for the open kitchen. Do proceed to the second floor for more spacious seating. The environment is homey and cozy. It is a place perfect for hangout with friends.

Expect some cute Disney characters walking around during breakfast to make it even more interesting!

Everybody who visits Bangkok will think of After You for their Shibuya honey toast.

Baby Shibuya Honey Toast (THB165)

Baby what???? Yes, they have the regular size toast and the smaller version. We had lunch at Som Tam Nua Siam Square which is a corner away from After You. The baby version is brilliant - no way I can finish one whole toast right after lunch!

Just the normal food court you'll find in Malaysia where you can get street food all under one roof.

We had BKT at Pao Xiang and popped by Eng Ann for local dessert.

Lin Chi Kang / Cendol seems to be very popular, they say always order something that everyone has on their table and you won't normally go wrong!

Located at Publika, this shop seems to be busy all the time. They serve Thai street food with an exorbitant price. You people are paying for their rental as well.

Boran Thai Ice Cream (RM16.90)

Not sure what style is this, but bread??? And there's sticky rice. Nothing wrong with that, except I just wanted coconut ice cream. This is too much for me.

Som Tam (RM15.90)

Yeah, you're probably thinking you can get something like this in Thailand for half the price. Also, the portions in Thailand are twice bigger and much more generous when it comes to ingredients like dried shrimps / salted egg / salted crab. Theirs is a very small and sad portion which consists of very little taste of the shrimps.

Pandan Chicken (RM13.90)

The pandan chicken is exceptionally small, and also pretty disgusting. The chicken is wrapped with pandan leaves and it's unusually oily. They are too lazy to even drain the oil before serving! The middle bits are a little pinkish. I'm not even sure if it's because of being frozen for too long so it isn't fresh or it's just undercooked. Also, these are not chunks of chicken meat, it's 50% chicken meat, 40% chicken fats and 10% chicken skin. After removing the disgusting 50%, I'm left with the chicken meat no bigger than a Ferrero Rocher chocolate. Wait, the chocolate is bigger than the actual chicken meat. This is anything but good.

"Original" Coconut Shake (RM15.90)

Please slap yourself silly if you order the Coconut Shake. It's so full you cannot move or stir. It's a pile of tasteless shaved ice. It melts extremely fast due to our weather condition. It messed up the place. When we finally had most of the tasteless shaved ice, the bottom bit is extremely sweet. What kind of coconut shake is this????? I just can't. For RM15.90, there are better options out there.

And the prices are not inclusive of GST and Service Charge. Yes, please spend your money elsewhere. This place is now listed on the Top 10 Terrible Thai Joints in Klang Valley. 

On a side note, it's Halal. Perhaps that's why the attracted so many people. I shall continue to hunt for Pork Free/Halal Thai shops in Klang Valley which are MUCH better than this one.
