One of the best things about living in the Klang Valley is the convenience of mouth-watering eateries nestled in every corner of the city. But let’s face it, no matter how delicious these places are, there’s nothing quite like a hearty home-cooked meal.

Good thing is, there are many restaurants in town that claims to serve homey comfort food, without MSG or excessive seasonings.

From home-cooked Japanese dishes to authentic Banana Leaf Rice meal, we’ve listed 9 Restaurants That Serve Meals That Similar To Home In KL & Selangor.

3. Puchong Chettinad Mess

Puchong Chettinad Mess is one of Puchong’s best kept secret. Truth be told, we are unsure whether this is a legit restaurant. That’s because the people here are so friendly and they treat customers like house guest. Further more, with the refillable spread from the Banana leaf rice, we get the sense Puchong Chettinad Mess isn’t profit driven. Nonetheless, the spread here is absolutely satisfying and flavoursome with all the natural ingredients. The vegetables are on rotation every day the exception of mango patchadi and watermelon raita.
