Usually when it's just the both of us having dinner, we try to order the most interesting or expensive things on the menu and use that as our benchmark. This time we chose to have a Pappardelle and Duck Stroganoff (RM22), simply because it's so rare to see duck meat being used! Needless to say, this was probably the most enjoyable dish of the night. Chock full of duck, it was reasonably tender and done just right. Each strand of pappardelle was nicely coated with the robust sauce and had a nice texture to it, resembling pan mee, if you will. We enjoyed this, being a nice change from the run-of-the-mill bolognese or carbonara.

Our meal began with a Fitto Misso - calamari, shrimp and shishamo on a bed of salad. This was quite satisfying; the lightly chilled vegetables had a fresh taste and flavour, the shishamo was juicy, and the prawns were fresh, lightly battered and crispy on the outside. We were also satisfied with the amount of seafood, so we give this one 2 thumbs up. Overall a good mix between East and West because shishamo is usually only found in Japanese restaurants =)

The sauce for this fruit rojak was extremely thick and gooey, but with a generous sprinkling of chopped peanuts, which in my opinion, is the key to any successful rojak sauce. I can't help but feel that it would have been much better mixed with all the fruits, since the juice from the fruits would have thinned the sauce out a bit. The pineapple was nicely sweet and juicy, but I felt the rest of the fruits on the platter were too hard - they should have used riper fruits for serving.

Of course, no local deli would be complete without my (and I believe many others!) all-time favourite Malaysian dish. The Nasi Lemak with Fried Chicken (finally, a price! - RM 14.80) here boasts of a whole chicken leg, with nice crispy skin and tender, well-marinated chicken meat. The 'kick' of the sweet-ish sambal was just nice for me, and really went well with the fragrant rice.

Aaaah, now moving on to my favourite! For those of you who do not know, Sisters Kitchen is actually a diversification of business that originated from the yummy Crispy Sisters Popiah that can be found in almost every major shopping mall these days. I love The Crispy Popiah (what I like to call "new-age" popiah with crispy bits and ground peanuts, and more importantly, sans bean sprouts), the sweet sauce and sweetish crispy bits and peanuts make the perfect crunchy combination. They also do the same popiah filling in an egg roll skin now, but I still like mine with the original skin better. Side note: That squirt of chilli sauce on the egg roll popiah is also extremely spicy! :S
