Was invited to have buffet lunch at the Atrium Cafe, Pyramid Tower Hotel. As a vegetarian I find that the spread of food is quite sufficient from raw to cooked and also to desserts. Service is good and ambience is pleasant. To start off you can go for fruits first followed by fresh vegetable salads. After that I had the asparagus soup which was tasty and creamy. For the main meal I had rice with a bit of Indian curry with potato wedges, and also a Japanese sushi - rice wrapped in bean curd skin. Desserts were a plentiful. I had cakes, kueh-mueh, and pengat pisang - a sweet soup with bananas. Finally there were so many flavours of ice-cream with a few types of toppings to choose from too. Still there is also the ice-kacang which I could not space for it anymore...............
FOUND: Best Place for Cendol (in PJ/KL) - Sunway Pyramid
After lunch I was looking for a Malaysian dessert and the thought of a good bowl of cendol came to my mind. My friend suggested Sunway Pyramid - Arena Food Court. According to him, the best cendol is in Melaka but it is too far to go, so he recommended this stall which according to him serves the 'second best' cendol. I have to agree with him. It comes with a good serving of cendol ( unlike those from the Indian stall where you can only find a few strands of cendol ), red bean, cincau and big pearls). I love the pearls, they are so chewy to the bite.

My friends and me are crazy for good cendol and thus far we find that the nyonya cendol in Malacca is the best and has been around quite a number of stalls in Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya trying to look for something close in comparison. The vote is unanimous when we tried this cendol stall in the Food Junction on the basement floor of Jaya Jusco in Sunway Pyramid. Not only is it cheap, the taste is almost as good as that found in Malacca. The standard cendol is RM2.80 and for RM3.30 you get a big tablespoonful of springy pearls.

Hopefully, through this site, the lives of some animals can be spared. Always remember, animals have feelings too, they are our friends not our meal.
