 The usual? asks Penny, a hairdresser at Hairworks in Taipan Business Centre USJ 10, with a warm smile. I have frequented this salon for more than 15 years, having grown up in Subang Jaya. There are other familiar vendors in Taipan as well. Just a few shops down the road, the tasty aroma of freshly baked pastries fill the air at Berrys Cake House, which has been in operation for 25 years. Despite the steady yields in the property market over the years, its pastries are still affordable, as are most of the goods and services offered in Taipan.
