Thoughts: It is the 6th day to Milligram to work in this Café; so far so good no issues for parking "FREE" along the SS25/9 playground which is less than 5 minutes walk from Milligram. Customers do come in for coffee, food, and chit-chat but more people today on their digital devices. 

No coffee today at Milligram but sampling the Lunch set available only from 11am - 2pm with 10 items to choose from the Lunch set menu which comes with rice, pasta, and sandwich choices from rm$14.90 - rm$22.90. And the set does come with Tea of the Day (Hot or Cold), or order any drinks from the menu and get rm$3 off the total bill. 

The rm$14.90 "雞肉沙拉 Chicken Salad rm$14.90 set" came with 熱檸檬茶 Hot Lemon Tea; the salad came with very tasty 煎雞扒塊 Pan fried chicken with 梅斯倫沙拉 Mesclun Salad with 帕爾瑪乾酪 Parmesan and 香醋 Vinaigrette. 梅斯倫 Mesclun (a French word) 沙拉 Salad is a French style Salad with a mix of assorted small young salad greens from local French Provinces; perhaps here the Salad is with mixed of available local vegetables. And don't think there is any 帕爾瑪乾酪 Parmesan cheese on the salad! No idea if it is Authentic French style salad, but the 香煎 Pan Fried chicken was definitely very good along with some "healthy" vegetables; conclusion today was a satisfactory lunch meal plus a good days work in the Café. 

SS26's Milligram Café; so far, a good location for digital nomads; albeit a little noisy during lunch hours or when crowd coming in for a noisy discussion but that is not avoidable as it isn't a co-working space. Also these kinds of "digital nomad friendly" Cafe perhaps usually have their regular crowds who comes to the Café either for the entire day or for some hours in the afternoons. 

Milligram offers FREE excellent high speed internet connection (so far, and no intermittent connection issues), also there are multiple electrical power points for digital devices for wall tables. The Café offers good Coffee and satisfactory Food (price from rm$7.50 - rm$33; while Coffee prices are from rm$8 - rm$13. The minimum budget spending is from around m$11+ if you only settled for a cup of Coffee for the whole day or around rm$15+ with the Lunch set that comes with Tea.

Besides some Digital Nomad friendly Cafes and Co-Working Spaces in town, someone suggested the Community Libraries can also be a good choice (just that there are all closed during the CMCO period) and here are a few of them:

• TTDI Library (Pustaka KL @ TTDI) which offers free Parking but was told it is closed during the MCO period for now. 
• Community Library worth visiting is in PJ Seksyen 13's Jaya One "Selangor Public Library" (PPAS Jaya One). 
• Shah Alam's Raja Tun Uda Library, Shah Alam (PPAS Shah Alam). According to the Government websites, there are FREE for all Malaysians. 
• The Japan Foundation KL Library (JFKL) located in Mid Valley also looks to be an interesting space for study (with annual membership fee of rm$10). 
• There is also another Community Library in Subang Jaya location in 3C Complex (Perpustakaan Hipermedia) perhaps also worth exploring in the future. Unfortunately, there are all closed during the MCO period.
• National Library of Malaysia (PNM) located somewhere along Jalan Tun Razak is one of the oldest library in KL since 1972.
• Perpustakaan Kuala Lumpur (KL Library) near Sultan Abdul Samad Building, recently completed renovation just end of last year may also be a good choice.
