    • actually i'm currently working at somerset.

      so would personally like to know what are the food that are nice there and of course not too costly because i'm like gonna eat over there for lunch every working day.

      but based on my own scouting, i would recommend a few.

      Cineleisure

      Food court

      - Roast Pork Rice. I must comment on the roast pork they sell. they actually removed the bottom layer of fats so that eating the roast pork doesn't make you feel very 'jerlat'. the skin is very crispy. (up for that). they add rice for free for students, not sure if adults are included.

      Price: $3.50

      - "Yu Pian Mee Fen" *don't know what is it called in english* the fish is fresh. (up for that). but besides this fact nothing much commendable about this stall. but the fish itself makes it a must try at least once dish for me.

      Price: $3.50

      Lucky Plaza

      Food court (the one tt looks more rundown)

      - Nasi Lemak. the stall name should be called rivervalley nasi lemak. hope i didn't get it wrong. comes in different set all costing at $3.30 each. not really fantastic but its nice as a whole. i must admit that the standard dropped drastically from the last time i ate there many years ago.

      Price: $3.30

    • other places where you can go for lunch.

      these are the few i've tried.

      PUB Building

      Zup Cai Png - nothing much to comment about. taste the same like everywhere else.

      Japanese - not bad, than again there is much room for improvement.

       

      Singtel Building

      Chicken Rice - taste not bad for a $2.50 chicken rice if i'm not wrong.

      Vegetarian - not to my liking. sorry.

       

      Meridian Building

      Lor Mee - not to my liking either. but the thing i like about it is that it isn't as gooey as lor mee sold elsewhere.

       

      Foodcourt @ Cuppage

      Zup Cai Png - so-so but they way they charge damn weird.
