Old fashioned cafe at Souka @ Subang Jaya

Souka is an old-fashioned bakery shop which is located at SS15 opposite the Subang Jaya Medical Centre. Their cakes are freshly handmade and the place is suitable for gathering among friends. The cafe environment is very intuitive and with nice ambience.

Taste:7/10(Moderate. Do come here for their coffee. That's the item which they done the best. The matcha cheese cake has too much cream and lack of green tea taste. The mint mojito taste were good but lacking alcohol making it an expensive drink).
Price:4/10(Near expensive. The price of food items and drink here are not cheap. You are paying for the nice ambience environment to dine here. Ordered their matcha cheese cake at MYR15.00 per slice, latte at MYR9.00 and mint mojito at MYR13.00. Do take note that the mojito is non alcoholic).


Nice old fashioned cafe.

Cakes selection. They have a variety of chocolate cakes.

Riders Garage - Interesting motorcycle lifestyle shop @ Subang Jaya

Riders Garage which is located in Subang Jaya is a rare motorcycle lifestyle shop in Malaysia. They sell all those cool motorcycle related products such as leather jackets, leather gloves, denim jackets and Red Wings shoes. They are stylish but almost all of the items are imported so the price can be quite expensive. Lifestyle or fashion motorcycle shop don't fix bikes and they focus more on bikers fashion. With a high number of affluent population, students and expatriate in Subang Jaya, the market is there for such store. Although the brands and the items are quite limited, they do carry popular brands such as Bell Helmets, Roland Sands leather jackets, Schott leather jackets and famous American Red Wings shoes.
