I think this is the first market spot turned into residential plot, the other (notable) ones being Taman Megah's Ming Tien and Subang's Asia Cafe. Biji has finally been completed by existing in harmony with its previous tenants. The stalls are still around, even given a more permanent home with an open air food court area just beside the condo.

The anchor tenant in Biji is a swanky Aeon with few other F&B outlets. Kimiya was one that caught my attention as they were having promotions on their bentos for less than RM 30.

 If you order a value set bento, you can add on some items such as this sashimi for RM 9. Quite a bargain considering that their main menu offers it for almost RM 20. Not very thin but fresh without that dreaded slightly icy texture, I got my money's worth for this as an appetizer.

 Udon nabe which is quite unexciting as this is all you get. Mostly noodles, with an egg for protein. Sorry, I didn't get to try this. At RM 22, it was all right.

 RM 22 for the full works of a bento. Grilled fish because all that CNY gluttony needs a break. The fishes were grilled quite nicely with a touch of salt, though you have to be careful about the random bones in the middle. It would have been nice too if they were served warm, or maybe I need to eat faster.

Raindrop cake. RM 3 only if you order a promo main. To be honest, I had so much hope on this as Buzzfeed/Tasty was raving about it. The looks certainly were promising, slightly softer than your normal jelly with a bounce like konnyaku jelly. That brown syrup is sweet while the brown powder has a strong nutty flavor, both of which are meant to turn this into a dessert as the jelly on its own is almost tasteless.  I think this was just an overly hyped desert.
