Before our afternoon tea time at Kebun Cafe, we visited one of the main attractions at Ulu Yam, which is World of Phalaenopsis. Built on a 6-acre agricultural land, World of Phalaenopsis as its name implies, is a nursery specialises in moth orchids.
If it’s the latter, then I suggest a day trip to Ulu Yam, where you’ll find World of Phalaenopsis, a plant nursery that specialises in phalaenopsis (or moth orchids, because phalaenopsis is a mouthful. lol). Tucked within a quiet kampung, about an hour’s drive from Kuala Lumpur, the nursery is home to thousands of orchids as well as a myriad of other plants — and it even has its own hipster-esque cafe called Florescence.
So after a brief stroll around the beautiful orchid farm of World Of Phalaenopsis, we quickly headed to the café for a speedy nosh.
You will be first greeted by the hanging green plants at the entrance before it leads you to the orchid varietal area as you went further in, bypassing a little pond chirruped by excited ducks and gosling too.
Ooooo man, I’m glad we dropped by. It was beautiful, charming, peaceful and really enjoyable. Soooo totally worth it to pay this farm a visit. Definitely wouldn’t come across something like this in the city. Lots of greens, yay!!
Florescence is a really pretty place to eat, and the staff are quite friendly. However the quality of food isn’t nearly high enough to justify the journey out of town. On the other hand, if you want a snack when you are in the area (say, buying orchids), then why not?
