the good batch @ damnasara uptown

  one of my best friends came down from malacca. he has never had brunch before, so i decided to bring him to the good batch. i've been wanting to try this place as well because of the cool names and good things ive heard about it. they call their food, the norwegian, or the malaysian and things like that. i had trouble deciding between the norwegian which is basically like eggs atlantic but with capsicum and onion jam or the portobello road which is basically eggs benndict but in place of bacon, a deep fried portobello mushroom. 

in the end, we decided on, ordering both to share. for the drink i had their signature iced tea, which was something like lemon grass with tea and passionfruit. i wanted something really refreshing because i had a really heavy breakfast. i had too much. for bfast. i regretted it though because, i was gong to have an early lunch. hence i opted for something more refreshing rather than trying out their coffee. 

 this was their deepfried portobello eggs. perfectly poached eggs seated on portobello mushrooms, deepfried to perfection. with a huge slice of tomatoes. i didn't like this though. i liked the mushrooms. but i didn't like the huge slice of tomatoes. it was too thick. the mushroom and eggs were good but the whole combination wasn't very good.

the norwegian, or more commonly known as the atlantic. smoked salmon was good. but the bread was not toasted. i didn't like that.

ihonestly i was disappointed. because i'm a subang girl, and rarely go to damansara, i'd much rather go to village nasi lemak if i were to venture off so far. by far my brunch rankings are still antipodean, followed by garage 51. then, red bean bag. maybe nutmeg, and lastly this place. 

not a fan.
