Fruit Rojak @ Atria Shopping Centre, Damansara Jaya, Petaling Jaya



Short post for today as I'm kinda feeling tired. Not sure if all of you are feeling the effects of the hazy, hot and humid weather but I feel like moving to the North Pole right now. Today was kinda better as we had a short rain storm - felt so blissful when the wind was blowing and the rain fell. Unfortunately it got hot really quickly after the rain dried up.

Last week since everyone made a hoo hah about the Atria fruit rojak man, I decided to make a visit here. Kinda good too since I discovered the Big Bookshop sale and picked up more reading material.


The rojak man is actually in front of a small food court on the side of Atria, Damansara Jaya. Next to him is a van which sells soya bean milk and curd that is pretty good too. Unlike the other place, the sauce is not so thick but extremely fragrant. If you're eating there, you can choose to sit at the food court stalls. Do beware of the territorial issues as it's a no-no to eat the tau foo fah there as the food court has their own drinks stall.

Back to the rojak, I liked the sauce and the fruits which tasted really fresh and juicy. Cut in quite big sizes, it's really nice sprinkled with lots of crushed peanuts. He adds a cracker first and places the fruits on top of it. One thing I didn't quite like is the sauce tends to get liquid quickly with the cut fruits oozing out their juices. Maybe I wasn't eating fast enough? If you pack back the rojak, he seperates the sauce and crackers in different plastic bags which is a better idea.

  13. big boys oven - ah, that's a nice combo. the yummy mushroom mee and rojak.

    joy joy - hope the translation was helpful.

    mycoffee - this one is better as the taste is milder. The other one can be overpowering as it is too thick. Only problem is must eat quickly as the fruits emit quite a lot of juice.

    xiu long bao - LOL! I don't think u will want sashimi in North Pole as it will be too cold. Seng Lee's rojak is nice, I love it too since I've eaten it all these years.

    jason - lucky you! No rain on my side.

    tummythoz - grrr, sounds yum since sauce is from penang.

    precious pea - so hot! I hate the weather. Yes, time to revisit uncle and get yr fix.

    lianne's blog - I keep putting my hair up everyday until it's no longer straight!

    unkaleong - can eat this soon when u're home for good.

    teckiee - didn't know abt the chicken rice. Thanks for the tip. I love the tau cheong soi also.

    jackson - taman eng ann also got rite? ask yr bini no 2 to take u?

  15. Heh heh, made a trip specially to DJ to try out the combo of ...

    1) Chicken Rice
    2) Rojak
