The good thing about living in the city, or at least surrounding the city, is that there is absolutely no shortage of food. It's no secret that we Malaysians love our food, and we're always on the hunt for good food, sometimes even travelling far and wide to try out some local, authentic delicacies. However, if you're living in the KL & Selangor areas and don't really want to go too far, preferring to hang out a little closer to home, try Taipan, otherwise known as Taipan Business Centre or USJ 10. Sure, it might not be as well known as its other Subang Jaya counterparts like SS15 or the Sunway University area, but Taipan has plenty of food choices and its own charm. In other words, this is your guide to "What to Eat in Taipan?"

So Really, What To Eat In Taipan?

Patisfrance is actually more of a bakery, but you can also opt to dine-in with their range of pastry and tea or coffee. Besides bread and other various baked goods, plenty also drop by Patisfrance for their gelato, which is quite popular in the Subang Jaya area. The best time to visit is actually early morning just as all their goods are freshly baked and being brought out--you haven't experienced contentment until you've bitten into a freshly-baked bun accompanied by your preferred hot beverage on an early morning. Personally, we recommend the Chicken Potato Bun, but to each their own!

Besides Korean BBQ, you can also order other dishes such as fried rice or herbal chicken. Don't forget to knock back some soju while you're at it!
