Round the corner from busy Jalan Gasing, in a neighbourhood known for its banana leaf rice eateries, lies a discreet musical gem in the heart of Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

Curtained doors at the top of the stairs lead to a rustic haven for independent artistes and busy city dwellers seeking respite from Top 40 hits.
