Food Junction

Shopping malls and food courts. it would appear that you just can’t have the best of both worlds. Of course, there are certain exceptions like the one in Publika. Anyway, wanting to have a cheaper dinner, we came here after 8.30pm and was not greeted by any dinner crowd surprisingly.
As always, we did our rounds of survey and I do have to give pointers for it being clean and well organized, and there is quite a good spread of choices from Korean, Japanese, Thai, Nyonya, Breakfasts, Western and so on. Prices varies though, from below RM10 to above RM20 (which I think is ridiculously, might as well eat at a restaurant).

After the renovation at third floor MidValley, finally, my favorite dining place at MidValley re-​open! Yes, Food Junction is only a food court, however, the best thing about food court is you have plenty of different cuisines to be served!
Believe me or not, the toilet at Food Junction is the cleanest in MidValley (don’t count the one at The Garden). However, be careful when you walk into Food Junction, the space between table and table is narrow. Since foodcourt is self-​service, give you to people who holding their food, so that you won’t hit anybody else, especially those who are holding hot soup meals.
Compared to the one before renovation, I love this new Food Junction more. This is because the stalls are more organized and easier to find. And now, it isn’t located at the center of third floor Midvalley, it is more comfortable for patrons to dine at. The price range is reasonable compared to other foodcourt in shopping mall. The food was okay depending on what cuisine you have. Overall, Food Junction is recommendable. You should try out the food there.

Great selection of stalls, from western chicken chops, to Italian pastas, to middle eastern food, Korean soups and of course all your favorite local fare. The overall setting is clean and bright and the interior reminds of a cobbled London street in Victorian times.
If you have a big group of friends or family and they all want different types of food, this is a great option. Also a budget friendly option for those who are tight. They have several mix rice stalls, chinese, malay and Indonesian, Although they’re not as affordable as those located in warungs or shoplots, it’s still an economical option compared to a majority of eateries in Mid Valley.

Food Junction is really nothing to shout about. They serve the usual varieties that you would find in most shopping mall food courts. My usual order would be from the Wok station where all your meals are served in a cute little wok. The menu consists of everything from fried rice to fried noodles. The interior is pretty basic and simple, not much of an ambience. You’ll usually end up reeking of the entire food court after about 30 mins in there as the ventilation isn’t that great. During the lunch hour it can get pretty busy so seating may be a little hard to come by. Usually one person from our group would go and sit a table while we went ahead and ordered first, to ensure we had a spot once we got our food. Note that everything here is self service.

Located on the top floor. We would frequent this place because my then-​pregnant sister was craving for their Yong Tau Fu. She literally had to have it everyday and if my brother in law were too busy to take her then I would be the one who had to.
They have since then give the place a major facelift and had it moved to a smaller space (waaaay smaller.) The basic circulation of the place is; you order your food from the many different stalls there, pay at their counter, bring your food tray to your desired table, ask a friend to guard your table and food, and head over to the drinks and beverages counter and get your drinks, return to your table and eat.
I find that I have to put my food tray down at a table first before getting my drink because I find that the trays are a tinsy bit small and I usually have two drinks with me cause one is rarely enough. The food prices are very reasonable and the dishes are cooked fresh.
The place is loud, bright and clean. There’s no need to get all dolled up if you intend on eating here, simply put on your best pair of flip flops and take your empty stomachs with you (clothes are optional if you’re really THAT hungry.)
