Discover the Secret to Delicious and Affordable Food at Timeless Treats
BANGSAR: When was the last time you went to Bangsar, had a fantastic meal, and didn’t have to fork out a fortune? Picture this: a mouth-watering plate of chicken katsu rice or a juicy chicken burger, all for under RM20. Sounds like a dream, doesn’t it?
A Passion Project Born from Friendship
Timeless Treats is the passion project of college friends Vinod Chandra Kumar, Janesh Kapoor, and Vinod’s Japanese wife, Makia Abe. With seating for just 20 diners, this cosy fusion restaurant along Jalan Telawi is a hidden gem in the heart of Bangsar.
A Menu that Takes You on a Culinary Journey
From poké bowls and Japanese curry rice to falafel salad, chilli con carne, pulled beef burrito bowls, and pancake chicken burgers, Timeless Treats has something to satisfy every craving. Each of the trio had their own specialities and dishes they were really good at, so they decided to merge them and experiment.
The Power of Collaboration
The trio’s collaborative approach is the secret to their success. They experiment together, giving feedback and checking online to see if Malaysians are familiar with the dish, how they might react, and how they should price it. If it’s something new, they make sure it’s affordable enough to draw people in.
A Journey of Passion and Teamwork
Vinod, 33, and Kapoor, 37, first met while pursuing their culinary arts diplomas, where they dreamt of one day running their own restaurant, serving exquisite global dishes. But life took them down different paths: Kapoor moved to Australia to further his studies, and Vinod stayed to complete his bachelor’s degree.
The Rice Burger: A Game-Changer
The most unique dish they have is the rice burger – Makia’s brainchild. Instead of regular burger buns, they use sushi rice to create their own rice buns. It’s a big hit with customers.
The Future of Timeless Treats
Looking ahead, Vinod shared their plans for expansion. One challenge they face is their small space, and the fact that their signboard isn’t very noticeable. But they are determined to make it work, and moving to a bigger location will definitely be a stepping stone for them.
Conclusion
Timeless Treats is proof that good food and good vibes go hand in hand – and that’s a recipe worth celebrating. With their passion, creativity, and teamwork, they have created a culinary experience that is truly unique and affordable.
