Looking for ideas on what to do with your friends when you’re next in SS15? Try going to one of these places!
1. Oregi Café
If you’re looking for a chilled place to hang out with some friends, Oregi is our top recommendation. Offering great food and shisha at an affordable price, it’s hard to find a place that beats it. They have both indoor and outdoor seating – with their outdoor seating featuring walls painted with caricatures of famous soccer players. Authentic Arab dishes are available, prepared by their Yemeni chefs. Our top suggestions are their lamb fahsa (RM23) and beef fajitas (RM18) which are both served with Arabic bread and a spicy tomato sauce.

Traffic in SS15 can be a nightmare at times, so ditch the car and take the LRT instead. Located directly opposite the LRT station in SS15, Canai is an incredibly convenient option to dine at. Canai offers your typical mamak foods and drinks, but has a unique ambience that sets it apart from other mamaks. Their outdoor seating area is filled with plants which make the place feel more lively. They also offer shisha, making it a great place to enjoy time with your friends.
3. Fowlboys
Great food and an Instagram worthy environment? Yes, please. Known for their American diner-styled theme, Fowlboys has a limited menu that they have perfected. Their menu is kept short with just burgers and fried chicken, but can be customised with various add-ons and different spice levels. Fowlboys meets our expectations of what we would imagine American diner food to taste like, and just hits the spot differently when you get fast food cravings. Make sure to come here with friends so that you have someone to take your Instagram pictures for you.

One food we can all agree on though, is buttermilk chicken – a nationwide favourite dish.

Gold chili has four branches, with the branch in SS15 besides Darussalam being the most popular branch. Gold chili does not take reservations and is almost always fully packed, so be prepared to wait.

6. Nomms Pressure Fried Chicken

Nomms is the perfect spot to go with your friends as they have sharing sets of up to 16 pieces of chicken. Their combos include refillable drinks and a side. Whilst the menu offers a short range of foods, Nomms ensures you do not get tired of the same taste by offering a new flavour every month.
