5 innovative dishes at Lepaq Lepaq to elevate your chill out sessions

This review is brought to you in part by Lepaq Lepaq.

Hanging out at mamak shops is a rite of passage for many young Malaysians. It’s so synonymous with Malaysian culture that even tourists know to look for good food at mamak shops. Even lepak culture is making it big, with the word ‘lepak’ now included in the Oxford English dictionary!

While mamaks still hold a dear place in all our hearts as the best place to lepak, sometimes we want to be tempted with something a little different, something more exciting that roti telur cheese with milo powder. With food being one of the main components of any good lepak sesh, it’s only natural you’d look for cosy place to have a relaxed chat with friends and enjoy some mouth-watering nosh.

Lepaq Lepaq has five innovative dishes that will elevate your basic lepak sessions and inspire your inner Instaphotographer:

1. Big Daddy breakfast

For a bit of a communal eating experience, this hearty breakfast can be easily shared between three people. The dish comes with truffle-oil scrambled eggs, toasted baguette, three types of sausages – cumberland, smoked chicken and lamb cranberry – two pieces of has browns, and slices of chicken ham and streaky. On top of that, there’s a mixed salad, halved tomatoes, sauteed mushrooms, baked beans and kidney beans to make this enormous dish a wholesome breakfast.

2. Rainbow

This simple dessert speaks to the child in all of us, invoking a sense of nostalgia of a time when hanging out with friends meant going out to the movies and snacking on sugary things. The unicorn fluff of blueberry and raspberry candy floss atop a serving of ice cream is a dreamy little dessert to inject some fun into your day.

3. Hainanese chicken rice cake

Now, we all know that nasi lemak and chicken rice are local favourites, and everyone has their own pick of where to get the best of each dish. But instead of your basic delicious chicken rice, Lepaq Lepaq has a sumptuous Hainanese Chicken Rice that will surely tempt adventurous lepakkers.

4. Deep fried lotus root

The craze may be dying down, but a well crafted salted egg yolk dish can still draw a crowd. Crispy fried sliced lotus root served with salted egg yolk flakes and coated with butter will be a sure winner with all your lepak companions. These addictive chips are a fun snack to have for your next get together.

At this point, you’re probably wondering what else there is in your basic lepak session that can be outdone…

5. Rainy day coffee

Coffee of course! Take a basic cup of coffee, add some fluffy clouds, and you have a whimsical rainy day coffee. The steam from the hot coffee will melt the cotton candy cloud, making it rain sugar right into your cuppa – not even bru coffee is that exciting.

If you want to take a leap forward from your usual lepak plans and try something different, Lepaq Lepaq is the place to be. Get a couple of friends and settle down in a cosy corner with some hearty grub.
