Bread Basket Bakery - Kota Kemuning

It’s a Friday, weekend’s approaching… our boss is outstation!!! Early in the morning C already busy herself with food search. So we receive this IM from her:

Bread Basket Bakery - Roof - Top View

Upon reading my these two review I told C that those blogs reviews are probably bias since they are friends to the owner. I mean.. if I am your friend and you invite me to sample your restaurant’s food.. you think I will write bad about you?

If I do, I will risk: 1. Our friendship 2. Free food next time

Bread Basket Bakery - Store Front

Okay, when we reached the owner/owner’s son/helper.. we do not who the rather plump looking guy was, (we are not keen to “low chan low chek” – (familiarize ourselves) with every restaurant staffs.. we are just part time bloggers, ok?) usher us upstairs to Friends Chinese Cuisine Restaurant since downstairs’s full..

(Automatic) Door to Friends Chinese Cuisine

We had to double & triple confirm with them that the Chinese Restaurant upstairs serve the same food as downstairs.. (aiyo.. aunties.. just go up ok?!!!!)

Environment wise is pleasant, the restaurant smells of “pandan” leaves. But the table we are seated are quite uneven.. so throughout our meal we have background music that goes.. **creekkk .. eekk.. eek… ** (C reminded me that as good bloggers we need to note this down). Anyway L & J start to move about to take photo of each other... ?! Girls!! (Eyes roll up)


Interior deco that L & J ogled over..

A plump auntie (must be a relative to the plump guy) look at our antics us coolly … & take our orders.. *** this auntie quite action.. ***
So this is what we ate & verdict ** Drum roll please **

BB Special Fried Noodles - RM 7.50

Four of us ate the same thing: BB Special Fried Noodles. Cool auntie described it as fried Wantan noodles are fried with seafood (crab stick, squid, prawn).

We can smell the wonderful aroma, when it's serve but had to bear a while longer since we need to take a few snapshot of it.

It taste yummilicious.. really good..full of "wok hei" but I wonder why they try to confuse us by putting the 2 egg & lettuce at the side of the dish. Why not just put on top?

Reasons on why they might want to do this:
1. The plate's too big, so by separating the egg, lettuce & noodles, the serving looks bigger that it actually was.. (C was eyeing at my plate & say enviously that my serving looks bigger. I look at hers & said no.. her's bigger.. So we had to kinda agree that the serving looks bigger when the plate is viewed from the side.)
2. A lot of people has requested for no egg / vege.. so to make things easier they separate the two.
3. For presentation purposes. ( I'd rather not believe that is is the reason since if you care so much about presentation my vege & egg won't look so 'senget' like the chef have no space to put the noodles & had to push the egg & vege to the far corner like that.)

I am making an issue out of this because due to of the way they present the food, I ate the vege first.. and then the noodles and then the egg. So vege taste like vege, egg is quite tasteless (abit on the dry side), but noodles.. yummy.. so after eating the noodles I have to quickly revert back to my vege & egg incase I finish the noodles before the other 2.. get it?


Nasi Lemak with Rendang Chicken - RM 5.90


We also had another collegue who ate Nasi Lemak with Rendang Chicken- she claimed that it was good too. (notice how nonchalantly I write her comments? We can only verify it if we eat that.)

Mango ice cream - RM 0.00


A complimentary dessert - mango ice cream is served. Ice cream taste really smooth and light with bits of dried mango. The 7 of us had to initially guess the ice cream's flavour. Friendly plump guy confirmed that it's mango. He said that taste varies with different batches since it's homemade and sometimes it taste sweeter / sour depending on the mango used. Definately good-good.. Reminds me of the yogurt ice cream from Sunway Pyramid.



Some miniature bread deco @ Bakery
(C says you can get this from Subang Parade @ RM5.00 per piece / alternatively fly to BKK RM 2.50 each.)



The bread that they sell are fresh and tasty too.. although presentation wise, there's room for improvement. Tastewise, can fight with more established bakery like Bread History.

Quick review :
Chocolate Hazelnut Bread Loaf - so so for me. (C please add your comment.. C is stressup with work these few days...)
Pumpkin Loaf - yummmzzz..
Doughnut balls - soft but too sugary

So our final verdict. Food is no joke... really good & quite value for money.

C: Hazelnut loaf has no hazelnut taste or aroma... Pumpkin loaf was good! Just that will be better if latered with more pumpkin.

Sorry no pics.. the bread looks like those loafs from Bread Story
