Living in TTDI is a blessing.
The rental of my home increases steadily every year and I’m in the midst of looking for another house. But as long as I’m based in this neighbourhood, I’m thankful for its proximity to 1 Utama, The Curve, IKEA and almost every bank in the country.
I can obtain almost all produce and products I need within walking distance or no more than 3 km drive.

The TTDI wet market is one of the best managed markets (clean, orderly) in KL with the choicest ingredients. That said, prices are slightly higher, but negligible if you’re shopping for one or for a small family.

After my stocking up of eggs, chicken and greens, I occasionally make time for an apom.
Chanai & Chaya is a favourite of many. It is self-service but no one minds that.

To be frank I prefer the one at Om Shakti at Bangsar.
It is sweeter and creamier due to the addition of rich coconut milk.
Even with an egg added, a piece of apom here won’t cost RM3.

Om Shakti Chelo’s Appam: Plain – RM0.80.
