At Desa Sri Hartamas, amidst the hustle and bustle, in a corner of radiant tranquillity, you'll find Sala - a vegetarian haven that's fast becoming a landmark for those heading off the beaten path in search of the city's peerless plant-based delicacies. Chalking up an irresistible allure with their menu of exquisitely crafted vegetarian burgers, Sala sprinkles a touch of culinary magic over the Malaysian capital, heralding a delightful challenge to our taste buds.

Food aficionados shower praise for one gem in Sala's crown: The Sweet Potato Lentil Burger. This foodie's treasure, with its uniquely delicious sweet potato and lentil patty, romances the palate with every bite. Entwined in a love-affair with fresh, crunchy salad and caressed by a gentle spread of tangy vegan mayonnaise, all resting gently within a pair of delightfully toasted, artisan buns — it's no wonder this is the one to try for every plant-tastic food lover in Kuala Lumpur.
