With a population of fewer than 15,000, the hill village of Testour promises an engaging peek into rural Tunisian life. Its local fare is worth exploring too - buy some bread to pair with the traditional cheese, with wild-picked berries and fresh pomegranate juice for a satisfying refreshment.
With founders who reputedly hail from Ho Chi Minh City, Saigon Avenue does delicious justice to the Vietnamese culinary repertoire: The pho bo is hearty and heartwarming, brimming with beef tenderloin, shin and meatballs (RM17), while the banh mi stuffed with barbecued beef is robustly flavourful, a very worthy lunch for RM11. Beyond beef, we'd return for classics like the stuffed squid, crispy pancake and lemongrass chicken with vermicelli; round out your meal with hot or cold Vietnamese tea. Saigon Avenue P-G-29, Tropicana Avenue, Persiaran Tropicana, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Daily, 11am-930pm.
