chicken cordon bleu rm15.90

this place is simple and cozy and even though the location is quite weird (below some flats) is a nice place...

It has quite a variety of food ranging from appetizers, Asian food, wide range of pasta, other main meals (beef, fish, chicken and lamb) and a selection of desserts.we ordered 3 dishes and a slice of cake..

the chicken cordon blue was basically chicken stuffed with turkey ham and cheese. yummy and full of flavour with a nice hint of herbs. it is served with some vege and mashed potato.the mushroom sauce on it is creamy and with lots of mushroom. me likey :D

carbonara, RM15.90

Pasta ranges from classic bolagnaise, carbonara, prawn/vegetable aglio olio, arrabiata and lots more...the carbonara is creamy and rich. there is lots of turkey ham, chicken slices, mushroom. it has lots of cheese.but i think i can't finish it by myself cos it gets quite "jelak" if you eat too much. but it was good :)

the prawn aglio olio was so-so. abit too oily for my liking. aside from that, it had a nice hint of spiciness and was quite tasty. with lots of prawns too

prawn aglio olio, RM14.90

chocolate millie crepe, RM9.00

the dessert counter has brownies, muffins and bread butter pudding. but the must try star of the day is the mille crepe. its really FANTASTIC!
mille crepe means "thousand layers"
its actually 20 pieces of thin crepe filled with fresh creme. 3 flavours are available-chocolate, vanilla and strawberry&cream.
biting into in is like heaven!!! you can feel each individual slice of crepe and the creme just oozes out and the texture is light and fluffy. melts in your mouth.

overall, Food foundry is a nice place to dine. food is good and prices are quite reasonable. DO try the mille crepe!!!

on our second visit (just two weeks after!) we had these..

from the appetizer menu. soft shell crab with spicy sesame dressing.it was crispy and not bad. just one complain that it was a little too fishy. and i could not taste any spicy sesame dressing.

this is the nasi lemak with curry chicken. quite good. crisp anchovy and yummy sambal :)

grilled chicken with rosemary and thyme, served with vege and mash.

This dish was really good. the gravy was nice and herby, chicken cooked to perfection and mash was a typical comfort food

and for the main agenda. Mille crepe (how could we resist NOT ordering this??) this time we ordered two slices. muahahah. chocolate and also strawberry. both were super good :D

food and beverage: 7/10 (mille crepe: 9/10!!!)
price: 7/10
environment: 7/10
service: 7/10
overall: 7/10
