早尚好 Good Morning Food Truck
We visited Eco Spring Labs on a Monday so not many shops were open. There were lesser food choices over here as compared to Eco Palladium. Therefore, we chose to eat our lunch at 早尚好 Good Morning Food Truck. A Taiwanese cafe that served both Taiwanese food and Malaysian food. I ordered Taiwanese breakfast as I had been craving for Taiwanese breakfast.
Taiwanese breakfast
Even the Taiwanese breakfast look instaworthy in the photo! We ordered pork egg toast (with peanut butter), pork wraps & scallion. Overall the taste of the food was average, I don’t think that peanut butter goes well with pork egg toast. Can’t wait to travel to Taiwan for authentic Taiwanese breakfast!
Morihana Pastry 森花手工烘焙
Taking a stroll before visiting the next cafe! Every spot at Eco Spring Labs is instagrammable, making it effortless to get a good shot. All the cafes and restaurants are extra asthetic here too.
Soil Cafe
Next, we went cafe hopping at Soil cafe. Soil cafe is a small and cozy cafe with a minimalist interior design. Loving the cafe ambience, you could spend your afternoon sipping your coffee away.
With so many pastries to choose from Soil cafe, you are definitely spoiled for choice. Their pastries were crispy, filled with loads of fillings, definitely worth your money. While their coffee tastes average, I ordered Matcha Espresso and couldn’t taste any matcha flavor.
Be sure to include Eco Spring Labs and Eco Palladium in your bucket list during your day trip to Johor Bahru Malaysia. It’s just 30 minutes away from the checkpoint, it is an easy getaway destination for some European vibes and level up your Instagram right now!
