A MALAYSIAN FOOD & TRAVEL BLOG
I'm going to blog about one of my favourite wantan mee stall at Restoran Okay, SS2. The appealing nature of the noodles is its crunchy and springy texture. As we stood by and observed, the noodles were blanched for a while and plunged into cold water to ensure a firm and springy texture. The noodles were tossed and mixed with the soy sauce gravy which is slightly different from the ones sold … [Read more...]
Ban Lee is one of the few old school bakuteh establishments in KL that still uses charcoal fire to heat up the claypot. It is also one of our favourite haunt for bakuteh because it is open throughout the day, albeit run by different bosses (I think). Afternoon Session: The bakuteh here is of the dark broth variation and is full of herbal aroma and flavor. There is also this bitter after … [Read more...]
With the famed Mo Sang Kor Bakuteh, Pao Xiang Bakuteh and Fatty Mee Hoon Kuih all located within the same row of shop lots, Taman Berkeley of Klang is probably a good place to do a mini food crawl. However with only so much space left to relish our food, we opted for Fatty Mee Hoon Kuih since Mo Sang Kor has a branch outlet in Lot 10 Hutong while Pao Xiang already has a presence in One Utama and … [Read more...]
A year ago, Ken from foodpoi told us, "You must try this stall call Ah Khai at Section 20! Their char siew is simply divine! Ah Khai, the Bangla look alike stall owner used to work in Hong Kong to master the technique of roasting." A month ago, David from Nuffnang told us the same thing. He described the char siew as fork tender with crispy burnt bits, and its cut into large chunky … [Read more...]
There's no shortage of hype over Lot 10's swanky new food court "Hutong" ever since they opened the door to the public last year. With so much already being said I was tempted to keep it short and sweet, but that just wouldn’t do it justice. My Singaporean cousin came to visit last weekend so we brought her here. There's no better place to savour the best of KL's hawker food in an air … [Read more...]
I have a confession to make - I'm not a morning person. Being able to sleep till noon is a comforting reminder that I occasionally get time off work and I really appreciate that. So whenever KampungBoy tries to wake me up for breakfast, I would protest, "Sunday's the only morning I can sleep. Can't we eat later?" and turn my back against him. But there's always an exception, there is one … [Read more...]
The title is self explanatory. Together with my usual partners in crime, we drove back to my lovely hometown, Ipoh and practically nonstop binge eating through out the week. I'm now having a hard time adjusting back to our usual de-lata lifestyle here at KL. As usual, the balik kampung rush has choked the highway to death. Time flies when we were having fun gossiping and before we knew it, … [Read more...]
It has been a while since we have posted good places to eat around Seri Kembangan. For those who are new here, we used to reside around SK when we first started the blog, hence the numerous reviews on eateries around SK. While I was about to reformat my PC, I found some long forgotten pictures from those "seri kembangan days". One of them is this famous mamak that takes it place in front of the … [Read more...]
On a totally random night, KampungBoy brought me to Selera Jaya 223 for some piping hot nasi lemak and boy, I was hooked after that. I have been begging him to take me here for supper almost every week! As you can see, the place is bustling with activities, even after 12 am, which make it a great place for hang out session. Mind you that the vendors here are very territorial and they will lead … [Read more...]
A food crawl isn’t complete with only satays right? Our walking food guide, Simon suggested Kou Lou Chao Fern (Tall Man’s Fried Noodles) at Kepong Dai Gai (Jalan Besar Kepong) as the next destination. Our eyes lit up immediately, and everyone started to nod frantically because we were famished! “Take us there, NOW!” So here we are, at this nostalgic looking coffee shop name Seng Yuen. … [Read more...]
Four crazy floggers embarked on a gastronomic journey to Kepong one night (for full story, read here). Without knowing every nooks and crooks beyond the Damansara/Kepong toll, it was an impromptu trip – we just got to know the destination after we hopped onto the car! WMW and I dreaded to read the map. The reason? Read up “why men don’t listen and women don’t read map”. So we put all … [Read more...]
In quest for the best claypot chicken rice… It brought us to Damansara Jaya (near KDU College). The first place to go is Restaurant Busy Corner which is always bustling with activies, even on a weekday night. Variety is the key here, other than the usual claypot chicken rice; one can opt for claypot prawn rice, claypot beef rice, and some soupy dish that goes very well with rice and is hearty … [Read more...]
