Be one with nature.
By Tiffany Tay
If you want to immerse yourself in Mother Nature, but don't want to travel too far from the city, here are some places you can go to feel like you're in the countryside
Surround yourself with nature and good company as you feast on delicious seafood fresh from the water. What could be a more relaxing weekend escape?
1. BBQ Lamb KL Kemensah
Located a few kilometres away from Malaysia's National Zoo, this restaurant has been serving delicious meals in the river since 2017. Wooden tables and chairs have been placed in the river itself, allowing guests to sit in the water and feel its steady stream all around as they eat.
Their menu consists of a variety of meat dishes, such as their skewer set, smokey chicken rice, lamb shank soup, roast duck, T-bone steak, burgers, and fresh seafood. They also have vegetarian options, and their set lunch menus come with free drink refills.
2. Veg Fish Farm Thai Restaurant
Founded in 2006, this restaurant is nestled in a pond surrounded by a lush green forest, and is reminiscent of a Thai floating wet market. They are an organic restaurant as they rear their own free-range chickens, and keep a fish farm as well as a vegetable farm where they grow fresh produce.
As their name implies, this place serves authentic Thai cuisine and delicacies, including spicy tom yam soup, mango slice salad with fried tilapia fish, mango sticky rice, and much more. They mostly serve seafood, and catch the fish straight from the pond beneath you!
What's really cool is that they ride across the pond in small boats to serve your meals directly from the kitchen.
3. Ikan Bakar Sri Nikat
Also located in Hulu Langat, this restaurant is built above a peaceful pond that serves as a fishing location. It's a truly picturesque place with lush greenery all around.
You can already guess that they specialise in ikan bakar, which they cook to perfection and serve as a fragrant, mouth-watering feast.
