Farm Visit: Water Crest Valley in Cameron Highland

Water Crest Valley is at Tringkap. If coming from Simpang Pulai, will not miss this landmark on the way to Brinchang.

View of the watercress farm from the restaurant. 

 

Admission to the farm is RM1 per person if not having any food in the restaurant. This is the path going to the farm which is quite steep.

Children and old people need to be careful with the steps.

Cute little flowers attracted me...

In fact, the view from the restaurant is equally good unless want to have a closer look on the watercress..

Great: Watercress contains significant amounts of iron, calcium, iodine, and folic acid, in addition to vitamins A and C. It acts as a stimulant, a source of petrochemicals and antioxidants, and a digestive aid.

A 2010 study conducted by the University of Southampton found that the consumption of watercress may also inhibit the growth of breast cancer.

Not so great: Watercress crops grown in the presence of manure can be a haven for parasite. This place looks pretty clean.

Clean water supplied to the farm. This part of the watercress were already harvested though.

The restaurant on the top.Yeah..we took the stairs down to the farm..

According to the owner, their watercress are organically grown. They served vegetarian steamboat, non-vegetarian steamboat and other home made dishes. And the steamboat is using charcoal instead of gas. 

The restaurant has really nice view.



Very pleasant experience to enjoy the farm view while eating.

We ordered a non-vegetarian steamboat for 2 person, RM60. Don't be intimidated by the soup color..haha

It was cooked with the watercress, black beans and other herbs. All you can taste is the aroma of watercress.

The dinner set came with chicken meat and Dory fish. I dislike Dory fish though, i would prefer a vegetarian steamboat next time.

The rest of the ingredients were great especially the water crest which were hiding underneath.

Here we go our hearty meal!

Having steamboat in cold weather and surrounded with such beautiful view was really enjoyable.

We ate slowly and enjoyed the view since nothing much to do in Cameron after dinner..
