Restoran Oversea is quite a well known restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, which serves Chinese cuisine. Located just behind the busy shopping stretch of Lot 10 Shopping Centre and Fahrenheit88 (formerly KL Plaza). The restaurant occupied about 4 levels of a row of old shophouses. Walk into the restaurant, one is like step back into the past. The place is decorated as in traditional chinese restaurant with red carpet and wooden dining sets, with rather old looking wallpapers. As it is almost 2.30pm, one could see most of the staffs rushing to punch out. As per normal in chinese restaurants, most are closed for business between the lunch and dinner dining periods. For a group of 6 people, we are seated comfortably at a table for 8. As it is still the chinese new year festive season, the dishes available are not the usual which I would prefer to have. The menu is also quite limited, with one third of the menu is solely on yu sheng (raw fish salad).
Stir-Fried Fresh Lily Bulb with Assorted Vegetables and Sliced Almond (RM18++)A simple stir-fried which tastes light and crunchy.
Deep-Fried Spare Ribs (RM7++/ per piece)Although deep-fried, the ribs is very meaty and juicy inside. Full of flavours.
Stir-Fried Assorted Vegetable with Macadamia Nuts (RM18++)More heavy in sauce, but one can still taste the crunchiness of the snow pea.
Braised Mini Chicken with Chinese Herbs (RM38++)Quite surprise with this dish, as we cannot make out if it is chicken or duck being used in the dish, especially the leg parts look quite long. Seems to be a mixture. Although the dish looks rather dry, the meat is actually quite juicy and well braised.
Overall service is not bad with tea filled regularly. Kid friendly cutlery is given for little JJ to use. Although it is past the closing time, we are not rushed to finish our meal. It is a place where the older generation would like it very much with its traditional food and setting.
