As MG's Cafe is very near to my dentist, after my visit there, the most convenient place to have lunch will of course be at MG's. After ordering the must have - Assam Laksa - we ordered a rice dish, Vege Unadon to try out. The vege unadon is rather fluffy and there is no bite to it but fortunately the taste is delicious and it has got some kelp to go with it. We also had a red bean tart for dessert. It is nothing extraordinary and the red bean inside is hard and like not too cooked. The frontage of the shop is very colorful and attractive now with a lot of Chinese New Year goodies on sale. Many ideas for presents for relatives and friends.

Not many choices of vegetarian food in Desa Sri Hartamas so ended up again in MG'S cafe when I was around this area during lunch time. The price is rather pricey for this bowl of Black Pepper Udon which came with only a few thin pieces of capsicum and two really tiny pieces of small ham which is more like two half toothpick thin pieces. The taste however israther delicious. If only they can add a little bit more capsicum.

I frequent MG Cafe for the wonderful assam laksa, which arguably is more authentic than the assam laksa found elsewhere, even the non-vegetarian version! Portion is just right for one and pricing is not too pricey, with the assam laksa going at $6.80. For those that are looking a vegetarian bakery without eggs added, this is the place to frequent! =) Despite being a coffee fanatic recently, I would not recommend the moka pot coffee as the taste was nothing tremendously special for the price that was charged, i think it was RM16 per pot (equals to about 5 1/2 espresso shot glasses).
Assam Laksa highly recommendeda great variety of vegetarian bakery (items with egg added are clearly stated)

Ordered the asam laksa but find that there is a little something missing in the taste. The spicy prawn rice set, thai style, was strongly recommended by the boss who claims that it is very fragrant and tasty but it turned out to be nothing extraordinary.
Many other tasty snacks are on sale too

Assam Laksa - YUMMY
I personally LOVE their Assam Laksa. I didn't really like the other fast food dishes (ranges from western-pasta to japanese-sushi to local delicacies-nasi lemak. They also have a bakery, but beware, some of the breads/cakes/food contains egg, but they are clearly specified in the menu.
