For Soulful Mexican Favourites Decked out in bright-orange walls and loud Mexican menus, Mezcla makes a chipper addition to the otherwise mellow USJ9 belt. Visit this trendy location to mix things up for team lunch or save it for a fun dinner with friends. The burrito bar turns out all your typical Tex-Mex hits, from tacos to quesadillas and burrito bowls. But if it's your first time here, let their namesake burritos win you over. Each is a chunky roll chock-full of rice, corn, beans, tomato salsa and your choice of protein. Frontrunners include the Braised Lamb (RM14.90) that surprises with a hint of mint as well as the Chilli Garlic Shrimp (RM14.90), oozing with a lush, garlicky concoction. Remember to also stop by the sauce station for their housemade red or green jalapeno mayo sauces — these make everything extra satisfying. For an additional RM3, the meal comes with a side of tortilla chips and a drink — we liked their bottled guava juice. If there is space for more sides, snag an order of Avocado Fries (RM11.90), deftly deep-fried for crunchy batter and creamy insides. Avg price per person: RM20

Grilled Beef Burrito (RM14.90) Loving this sudden pop-up of a bright, peopy Mexican joint in USJ. The area always had a lack of good international cuisine, and Mezcla Burrito Bar changes that. On default flavours, I really enjoyed the Chilli Garlic Shrimp (RM14.90) that packs juicy shrimps in with rice, salsa and beans. The oozy sauce came through excellently too — prepare for a messy meal. The Grilled Beef was cooked tender, but arrived a little too cold and under-seasoned. It is a self-service joint, so take note to pick up your food and clear them too! Not unreasonable when you consider the affordable price points sans service charge.

Matcha Latte Overly sweet matcha latte. Didn’t think of requesting no sugar. 😭 The space was packed on 2pm Sunday, be prepared for a short wait.

A Hen's Crush Chili flaked crepe, boneless chicken thigh, golden hash brown, salad and spicy tangy sauce (RM19.50)

Lethal Shrooms (Meat Free) Portobello, shimeji, baby king oyster mushrooms, spinach, caramelised onions, tomato relish, poached egg (RM19.50)

Make-Your-Own-Breakfast I love this place. Environment is comfortable, waiters are polite and friendly. Don't worry even if you sit at a far corner out of sight from the counter because the waiter will check out all corners once in a while. My Make-Your-Own-Breakfast is all good, fresh ingredient, nicely done, lightly seasoned, and filling. I will definitely come again for this. Price: RM28.50, Food: 9/10

For Refined Australian-Fusion Plates It’s been two years since this Aussie cafe opened in KL, and they’re still pulling in the crowds, especially on weekends. Asian-Western flavours reign supreme, like in the French Lady (RM26) that melds raspberry cream, coconut jam and black sesame paste atop fluffy brioche toast. Meat eaters, dive straight for the bestselling Mr. Terry Benedict (RM29) featuring uber tender 24-hour braised beef. Don’t miss out on a good pick-me-up either — the Magic (RM11) is a smooth drink of double ristretto topped with milk. Photo by Burppler Junior How Ka Chung

Perfect Brunch! CMCR club - one of the better sandwiches in the KL brunch scene. 8.5/10

Pancakes And French Toast Sweet sweet beginning for Brunch ! Pancakes were filling, crunchy (thanks to the nuts) and sweet. French toast was fluffy but airy enough with every bite. Paired with fruits and ice cream with maple syrup drizzled on top was 👌🏻
