Tea time at Padi House OK May 13, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western variety | Restaurant | Pizza/Pasta | Sweets/Snack

Have seen a lot of changes in Setia Walk ever since last year visit. 

My friend brought me to thi s place, Padi House for a high tea. It is actually coincide with my birthday (soon), and she decided to choose a piece of cake to have an early celebration.

We had ordered a mascarpone layer cake, a set of camomile tea, and to quench my thirst, I added one double fruit juice (orange+granny smith).

Although the mascarpone layer cake is one of the chef recommended, I did not taste any wow factor in it. Overall, the cake just taste blanc, and in the middle of the cake, they put in the lady finger's which is commonly used to make tiramisu. Frankly speaking, a tiramisu cake is more well worthy than this mascarpone layer cake. I had expected it to be more cheesy and creamy, because of using mascarpone as the attraction. However, it was not as what I had expected. Oh, well... it is definitely own preferences. If you like to have lighter taste of mascarpone cake, without the feeling of getting to creamy taste from the cake, then you might prefer this mascarpone cake.

The camomile tea is quite common. For those whom likes to chit chat while and spend time at a place to have gathering, you might opt to get the tea, as they will give free refill of hot water to the tea bags. 

The fruit juice that served had no added sugar, and I had asked them to serve with no ice cubes. Fruit juice was a safer choice, but the volume seems to be a little too small for me.

The service from today's visit was somewhat disappointing. Lack of attention, and hard to get any waiters or waitresses to notice you, especially when you are seated at the smoking area.

Delicious porridge Smile May 07, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Chinese | Restaurant | Noodles

Came across this porridge stall at Soong Kee when both my friend and I were craving for cantonese style porridge.

I have to admit that the porridge served was totally amazing. Ordered the chicken porridge, and mix pork porridge, together with one oyster sauce vegetables.

My friend would always ove to ask for more soy sauce+sesame oil mixture from them. The steam chicken meat was tender and smooth. I did not order chicken breast, though... so it is ahrd for me to comment on the breast meat.

The mix pork porridge was equally good. I likes to have the fired intestine and the small intestine with the mixture of pig stomach. I do not fancy much on the liver, which I still find that this mix pork porridge was awesomely good.

I did not eat beef, hence I could not leave any comment about the beef noodles. According to my friend, the mix beef was great!

curry mee OK May 05, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Malaysian variety | Noodles | Halal | Desserts

Saw  this penang road famous teochew chendul shop. I stopped by and have a good look, and curry mee and asam laksa are on the menu board. Well, I can't really get the aroma of the asam laksa but I can easily catch the curry mee scent overpowering the shop.  What's more?  I went to the counter to order a bowl of curry mee (it is vermicelli mixes with noodle) and their original chendul.

The curry mee was jus nice to me with handful of curry flavour and not spicy at all (a bit  disappointed as I wanted a little spiciness). Nevertheless,  the curry mee still better than the chendul which I think I can have better chendul at other places such as at ss22... and the chendul is rather too heavy with coconut milk.  The red beans were disastrous as I taste not fresh and smell like it had been kept in a fridge for more than a week. It does smells like that to me.. because I had kept red bean dessert too long in the fridges that it smells like rotten to me.
It might not my day to get such a bowl of chendul.. but I shouldn't be served to me at the first place because they supposed to have keep a good reputation for quality chendul...
Curry mee is good. ..jus that those served cockles were too small.

Not your usual Japanese Dinner Smile May 02, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Restaurant | BBQ

One might find this Japanese restaurant served small portions, as been mentioned in the first review.

However, before they shrink the portions, they served in larger size which is at higher price. They had adjusted it to suit the Malaysian budget for outside dining.

For those who are tight in budget, you might opt to visit this place after 930pm. They served most of the ala carte foods in discounted price.

I had been a fan for their salmon head. It is always not overly done, which I find that you have to really spend time and grill the salmon head with more than 20 minutes. Not like some particular Japanese restaurant which they served you with the whole fish head looks like charcoal, or the fish head is stinky due to some part at the inner side was not properly cook. I consume the fish eye, which I can tell you which fish is fresh and which is not.

Also, the pork bone soup udon served at Wakon is a limited dish, as the salmon head as well. Both these dish is not easily available, especially the pork bone soup udon only have 20 serving per day, and the salmon head will only be available if they had fresh salmon flew in from their supplier.

Their skewers are equally good. Especially if you like the pork neck with rice cake... or the truffle oil mushrooms...not to forget their awesome stuffed ebi chicken wing. If you like to try their new food, sometimes they have daily special. I had tried their fresh hotate shashimi, in which you won't find the same taste at any other high class japanese fine dining.

Lunch OK Apr 28, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Chinese | Kopitiam

Once arrived at Sabah, my friend and I called an old taxi uncle whom we called him as Uncle Siao. He is a very kind taxi driver whom is willing to bring us to eat at Restaurant Kuo Man.

Each of us ordered a different type of meal, uncle with his beef stew dry tuaran mee, my friend with mix fish fillet with dry tuaran mee, and lastly me with mix pork with dry tuaran mee.

I was not impressed with the mix pork dry tuaran mee, as the pork taste too porky to me. I do not have the exact word to describe the porky taste, but I can be sure to tell that the pork smell had covered the whole freshness of the soup. The intestine however, taste good and I am not a fan for kidney, so, I could not comment much on it.

I did not try the beef stew either. Therefore, I could not chip in my opinion for the beef stew. Somehow, my friend and Uncle Siao said the beef stew was awesome, and smooth. For those whom can have beef, you might want to have a try.

The killer for all these 3 types, was the mix fish fillet dry tuaran mee. The tuaran mee seems ordinary for me, although I must admit the chillies together with the tuaran mee was good. The fish fillet served were all fresh, you do not have the stinky smell of rotten fish meat taste when you take the first bite. The soup was filled with the fish essence. Worth to try the fish fillet mee. (Quite expensive though, just be prepared)
