🍽️ Review: Lao Pa Sat (LPS) at Eco Botanik – One Spot, Many Cravings Satisfied

Lao Pa Sat at Eco Botanik is a pleasant surprise tucked right in the heart of the neighborhood. It’s a casual eatery with a global twist—serving everything from Western comfort food to Thai spice, Chinese classics, and local Malaysian favorites. With such a diverse menu, it’s a fantastic option whether you’re dining solo or with a group of mixed tastebuds.

The variety here really shines. I tried the Western-style fried chicken chop, and it stole the show—crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and full of flavor. Thai dishes like the tom yum soup brought the right balance of tangy and spicy, while local fare like hor fun and nasi lemak offered that familiar, satisfying comfort. The Chinese dishes, especially the claypot options, were well-seasoned and authentic, though I did feel the portions were on the smaller side.

Service was cheerful and efficient. The staff were quick to make recommendations and kept things moving without hovering. The ambiance is simple and cozy, perfect for a no-fuss, laid-back meal.

Price-wise, LPS hits a sweet spot—affordable, with generous servings for most dishes, especially the Western and local items. The Chinese dishes might feel a bit light if you’re a big eater, but the overall value makes up for it.

Final Thoughts:
If you’re in the mood for variety without sacrificing taste, Lao Pa Sat delivers. Come hungry, bring friends, and definitely order the chicken chop—you won’t regret it.
