If you are a regular at Bangsar Village,
perhaps Plan B
should be a rather familiar name as this is one of the few restaurants which
gets exceptionally busy especially at the weekend (expect packed to the brim
scenery during dining hour, no kidding :P). The restaurant under The BIG Group has
gained many attention since its opening due to their unique décor & colour
tone, and of course the nice reputations they have on their food. :)
Plan B. Menu. :) |
The restaurant offers an Aussie-meets-New York deli dishes and recently a touch of Asia culinary has been nicely blended into the menu. Thanks to Nuffnang few of us from Tastebuddies@Nuffnang were invited to try out some of the tempting dishes on a wonderful Saturday lunch session. ^^
Plan B @ Bangsar Village 1. |
Other than its décor with a fusion of contemporary & vintage industrial feel, another impressive thing about Plan B would be the market positioning, despite of being another ordinary cookie-cutter coffee bars, Plan B’s idea of being a cultural café which focuses on both artisan coffee & creative cooking is brilliant as it offers a great variety of dishes to its customers.. Check out their >menu HERE<; with a wide selection of salads/soups, sandwiches/burgers, pastas, small bites, desserts etc., there’s always a plan b if you’re looking for more than just a cup of coffee. :P
Interior & decor, nice fusion of contemporary & vintage ^^ |
So here’re some of the dishes that we ordered:
Avo Quinoa b^^d |
Avo Quinoa (RM23)
A nice healthy dish with avocado, corn
salsa, fried quinoa & mild chilli oil on a perfectly toasted ciabatta
bread. I like the smoothness of the poached eggs & mascarpone cheese
topping which goes perfectly well with bread & crunchy aromatic fried
quinoa. b^^d
Som Tam Crab salad |
Som Tam Crab salad (RM 29)
A Thai style salad which can be tell
from the name itself. Made up by generous portion of spicy green papaya slaw
with long beans, cherry tomatoes & dried shrimp topped with soft-shell crab
& crunchy peanuts, this is for sure one tasty & appealing appetiser. ^^
Asian-Style Soft-shell crab spaghettini b^^d |
Asian-Style Soft-shell crab spaghettini
(RM26)
Springy spaghetti noodles in butter
sauce with chilli padi, crispy curry leaves & chilli flakes, and of course
a nicely plated soft-shell crab topping. One genuine Plan B signature
representing a fusion of East & West. ^^
Arugula Pesto Spaghettini with seafood b^^d |
Arugula Pesto Spaghettini with seafood
(RM 22)
A delightful combination of spaghetti
with arugula pesto and olive oil, topped with fresh arugula prawn & squid. Love
the slimy & slippery smooth texture of spaghetti with a mouthful of arugula
& pesto aroma. ^^
Spicy Fish Tacos |
Spicy Fish Tacos (RM26)
Crispy fish fingers, salsa &
coleslaw wrap via soft tacos, served with equally crispy sweet potato
fries.
Char-Grilled kimchi Chicken Burger (RM
23)
Sesame bun with grilled kimchi-marinated
chicken leg, butterhead & coleslaw, served with sweet potato fries &
side salad. A perfect choice for kimchi lover.
Nasi Lemak Goreng |
Nasi Lemak Goreng (RM 26)
Fragrant fried nasi lemak with prawns
& long beans, served with standard nasi lemak side dishes including sambal
telur, jelatah & keropok.
Buttermilk Fried Chicken |
Buttermilk Fried Chicken (RM 25)
Buttermilk marinated, flour coated fried
chicken served with coleslaw & French fries. Pretty crispy & tender
fried chicken, the buttermilk flavour isn’t as significant as expected though.
a close-up shot just to make you drool XD |
Being a cultural café, Plan B does serves
some nice artisan coffee with a blend of sun-dried Brazilian Santos, Sidamo

in-house. Scroll down to see if any is of your interest. ^^

coffee, chocolates, teas, juices, beers & wines are available :P
Lastly, a perfect way to end a meal—some
yummy desserts ^^
