We are familiar with fusion restaurants, but what would a café cum furniture store look like? Well, besides featuring a very unique and quirky interior design, the café does live up to its name by selling wood and steel furniture at a gallery upstairs. And it’s not all about the hipster look and feel either, Wood & Steel is a cozy place for serious coffee lovers as they serve really rich and aromatic bitter coffee. It goes so well with carrot cake that has crunchy bits of fresh carrot and classic cream cheese topping that is not too sweet or overpowering.

Alienated from the busier parts of Kota Damansara, you might need your GPS to get to this humble café if you’re not local! Those already let into the secret head to Amaze K Café for amazingly good sa-yung (a type of sweet fried sugar egg puff that resembles a doughnut, with a light spongy centre).

Simply order any main dish on the menu and it might just blow your mind! The Teriyaki Chicken Pizza is a crowd favourite comprising Japanese style pizza with a thin crispy crust and soft chewy centre, perfectly loaded with ingredients on the top. Meanwhile, the Spicy Cream Seafood Spaghetti finds the perfect balance of softness and texture of spaghetti plus an out of the world sauce combination.

Every junkyard is filled with rats and the Burger Junkyard with their eye-catching and colourful graffiti relishes this fact, making it into another feature, with rat soft toys as their fun number holder for patrons to play with whilst waiting. Every burger is a work of art and fusion burgers are their particular pride and joy, as they incorporate the use of sweet and tangy pineapple as one of their highlights. The Burger Junkyard insist on replacing common minced meat chicken patties with boneless chicken thighs, and their yummylicious beef patties are made from actual grain-fed cows from Australia. Cheeses range from smoked mozzarella, pressed cheddar to process sharp cheddar, and these are heated using a special steamer to yield steamed cheeses with a meltier and softer texture.
