This "Cabin-like" Cafe with lots of glass windows and greens as well.
Prawn vs Cereal Pasta, 23.90. The pasta was simple yet delicious. It basically consisted of stir fried prawns, olive oil spaghetti and cereal. The small prawns were a bit of a let down because this is the kind of dish that could really do with some large prawns. It kindda just goes without saying. As for the cereal, I wish they could add a lil more to the dish as oppose to it just being a ‘garnish’. The little bit that I did have though worked really well with the pasta and prawns, it certainly complemented the dish well. I like this dish.
Food: 4.5/5 Seasoning is nicely done Environment: 4/5 The little cabin decoration can be improved Price: 4.2/5 Price is reasonable compared to others cafe Service: 4/5
the venerable raju banana leaf rice, but in this video we had breakfast instead.. tosai.From old review - http://kyspeaks.com/2008/06/23/ky-eats-banana-leaf-...
Banana Leaf Rice was good; my pick will be their Cabbage and Cauliflower. YUM!! Banana Leaf Rice @ RM 7
Breakfast at one of the most popular spots in Petaling Jaya; Raju has been a roti canai stalwart for years now along Jalan Gasing. Raju is also a popular spot
Overall, we all enjoyed the food here, with each of us having our own fav dish.
Ambiance: 6/10 Price: 6.5/10 Food: 7.5/10 (pork-free) Verdict: Try the fish molee, sambal ikan bilis and cutlets. Best to go slightly earlier so you get first dibs, I say. ;)
I haven't tried fish puttu before.. and I really liked it! At Shobana's, they use mackarel in lieu of shark's meat, which is shredded and mixed with spices, chilli and freshly grated coconut
Pulled Pork Burger, 17 ringgit The Pulled Pork Burger is their popular/recommended dish. It was a nice, wholesome dish. The burger itself was pretty good. It came with a generous portion of flavorful shredded pork meat, a whole lot of it – yay!
The dish comes with yellow rice + Potato Perathal? + Pork Vindaloo + Cucumber, onion in yogurt. It was yummy. The pork was tender, dense and well cooked, it broke apart pretty quickly when cut into. The vindaloo gravy was flavorful and packed with spice. Having it with some rice and soft, flavorful potatoes…. oooo, yummy!
The briyani was decent. As you can see, it was made up of briyani rice + a boiled egg + chicken. The chicken was not boneless, taste pretty good though. It was not too spicy, had a good mix of flavor, could pass off as a chicken ‘parathal’. The bummer here was that I was told that I would get some raita with the briyani but I did not receive any. Good thing the briyani rice was soft and flavored enough to be eaten on its on or else I’d be somewhat pissed 😐. That being said, this briyani is priced on the cheaper side, so for what it is, it was a pretty good meal.
A more than satisfactory meal at "Jam & Kaya" today. Will be back soon for another Pancake brunch, maybe the next visit will be for the the Cafe's 2 other Signature offerings which are the sweet "Jam & Kaya's Pancake" and the "Hot Chocolate with Choco Balls"!
We like that the kaya and fruity jam were not overtly sweet. In fact, the kaya jam has a lighter green hue as they are made from freshly made pandan. The strawberries were not sour too – which is a plus in our books. We literally demolished the pancake stack in 5 minutes!
总而言之,Jam&Kaya有可能成为公司的最爱,超越其相对隐蔽的位置并避免提前宣传。
I prefer the steam chicken, its definitely tender, very nice soya sauce and chili sauce to get with it.
Verdict: The chicken rice was above average, compared with the previous chicken rice I’ve posted recently, this undoubtedly fared better. Restoran Satellite definitely more than a decent place for poached chicken rice but there was one thing that really annoyed me that day. Dining with music/songs played at the background certainly can elevate the dining mood but not with earsplitting volume which was really disturbing and a totally put off for me.
Every year, we will go to Ipoh and so excited to try Ipoh Food. Some of the Ipoh food from Ipoh Famous Chicken Rice Chains are a huge disappointment. They can’t even serve a decent chicken rice. This Satellite Restaurant Chicken Rice and 1977 Ipoh Chicken Rice are way much better than those shop.
Our favourite goes to Nasi Ulam. Mixed chilled rice with crunchy local herbs, served with roasted beef or roasted chicken accompanied with coconut milk, spicy gravy, sambal kelapa, sambal chili, fish cracker, salted egg and ginger pickles. Best to have a bit of everything and tuck in in one spoonful.
Top on the list of Genji’s Winter Specials and Signature Dishes menu is the air-flown Wagyu beef. With its rich tender buttery melt-in-mouth texture, thanks to the heavy marbling, wagyu is best savoured grilled lightly or dipped into shabu-shabu. Swirling the wagyu for just a few seconds in a bubbling umami broth is the best way to enjoy the beef. We definitely didn’t stop at one slice! The Shabu-shabu wagyu (marble 10) is at RM380
Every Saturday and Sunday, Paya Serai in Hilton Petaling Jaya presents their ever popular Weekend Hi-Tea Buffet featuring over 40 delectable teatime delights. The buffet, which runs from 12.30pm to 4.30pm, will rotate between three different menus and will showcase International as well as authentic Malay, Chinese and Indian cuisine The Weekend High Tea at Paya Serai is priced at RM122 nett per adult and RM66 nett per child
Families and large dining parties can choose from Fortune Set (RM2,188 nett per table of 10 persons), Prosperity Set (RM2,388 nett per table of 10 persons) or Longevity Set (RM2,488 nett per table of 10 persons); available for lunch and dinner.
Another must-try is the Blueberry Cheese, which has a mild, subtle cheesy flavour in the centre, as well as the Pomegranate Raisin, which is tangy and fruity. The best part is that they’re not too sweet!
The Jade Rabbit Premium Series One of the must to enjoy is their latest creation and the signature box which comes with the intricate laser-cut wood finishing, featuring two adorable rabbits, against a night background with a glowing full moon. This collectible is available in two colours, blue and pink (box of 4) and peach (box of 2). And they are priced at RM 118nett for a box of 4 pieces | RM 68nett for a box of 2 pieces
The Fried Kway Teow is pretty popular, 20 minutes wait time on weekdays before 12PM. Taste wise is slightly above average, noodle a bit soft, and quite some ingredients. The popiah is huge, taste..
I'd say its an above average Wan Ton Mee.
A small serving Char Kuey Teow cost RM6 while the large one is RM7. The large Char Kuey Teow here is fairly big and can be quite filling even if you are a big eater. The Kuey Teow noodles were moist and loose with an amazing “wok hei” flavours which you can smell and taste. The grumpy uncle was indeed skilful in controlling the heat and wok which made the noodles charred but not burnt surface with a strong smoky aroma.
Parking was easy at 8am this morning, beware of parking without coupon as MBPJ officers make their roundings ar random hors daily as seen today issuing parking summons at 3pm today.
My lunch order - seabass rice bowl at MYR 19 nett. One of the 3 rice bowls from the set lunch menu. The other rice bowls are vegetarian rice bowl and chicken rice bowl. The seabass fish (siakap) is fresh but they put a bit too much soy sauce deep fried garlic on top of the fish as garnishing so it is a bit on the salty side but overall, apart from the saltiness, this dish is tasty with the sugar snap peas and mushrooms.
Cake spread is quite a delight; making this quite the lovely place for sweet tooth. Caffeine beverages were fairly decent. I took a sip of the Matcha Latte and reminded myself that not all matcha are meant to not go wrong. At least this one is an exceptional.
Overall, we were very pleased with our meal. Max is happy to report that the duck rice still tasted good after so many years, and this was a wonderful discovery for Ming.
I will definitely put more effort in hunting them down.
In the evening, Kam Heong Coffee Shop in PJ New Town serves Teo Chew style braised duck and pork trotters but in the afternoon, it has a few stalls that sell noodles and roast meat with rice. We were there one afternoon for lunch and these are the food we ate:
Overall, a good meal. Most dishes from RM12-18 for a small size portion.
I have been returning here for a few years and will continue doing so for years to come 🙂
But Nature's Recipe Cafe (12 Jalan 8/1E, 46050 Petaling Jaya) is one of two Malaysian vegetarian joints that gave me hope for the potential of Chinese vegetarian cuisine to reach its own state of nirvana. (The other was Yishensu at 1 Utama.) The food is impressively presented and very tasty, even without a trace of the garlic I so dearly love.
Apa apa pun, sesiapa yang nak mencari Nasi Kandar Melayu yang enak dan lazat. Boleh try makan di sini.
I loved this authentic Penang's Nasi Kandar, just mixed them all up - rice with the spicy, flavoursome and thick gravies to send you to seventh heaven. If you're a big eater, can opt for NASI AYAM BESAR for RM 8.50 but seriously the NASI AYAM KECIL for RM 6 is a huge portion indeed ~ very generous if compared to many others stalls.
This particular plate of Nasi Kandar cost RM8.50 as we opted for the bigger chicken. It is certainly not overpriced compared to Kok Siong or any chain Nasi Kandar as the chicken we had was huge. The curries were the best part as it was spicy, thick and flavoursome. The spiciness were indeed unique, nothing like what you’d find in random mamak stalls. The fried chicken was super crispy yet moist and tender on the inside. It is one of the must try when you dine in Zainul Nasi Kandar. The fried chicken we had was really fresh, you can clearly see steam being released when you rip into it.
And of course their Thai Style Steamed Fish. The Thai Style Steamed Fish is one of my favourites for sure. The Thai Style Steamed Fish is served with the generous portion of lemongrass, minced garlic and coriander leaf . Bursting with the hot and spicy sensation, I am loving how they prepared the delightful item where the fish comes simply fresh too.
If you love Thai food but never tried Thai Corner At PJ New Town, you’re missing out! This restaurant has been operating for 30 years and is a well known restaurant throughout PJ and Subang.
My craving for Thai food hits quite often and I have a usual stall by a Thai lady I frequent near my place. However, she has limited items on her menu and tends to 'open shop' as and when she pleases. So this time, LC decided to introduce me to his favorite Thai restaurant in PJ State.
Conclusion, A&W, PJ’s oldest drive-thru branch and an iconic landmark, holds a special place in the hearts of many. With its timeless root beer and mouthwatering hot dogs, this beloved establishment has preserved nostalgia and created countless cherished memories. Whether you’re reliving your childhood or experiencing A&W for the first time, you’re sure to be enchanted by the warm ambiance and delectable offerings.
As usual I had the set of beef coney bun with curly fries and since I chose to have curly fries it means I get a large glass of root beer at MYR 14.25+ (6% SST = MYR 15.10 nett). The curly fries are tasty but I find it too flavourful. There are some chewy bits in the beef sausage that I had to spit out. The root beer drink was not cold enough so this meal was a less satisfying experience than the previous occasion.
Rogan Josh (Mutton/Lamb in a Kashmiri chili pepper gravy). It is a deep red spicy lamb or mutton dish of Persian origin. It was brought to Kashmir by the Mughals.
Overall, we enjoyed the pastries and food in Restoran Sri Karak and PJ New Town. Visited them for the past 17 years and they remained consistent on their food quality and taste. If you never visited Restoran Sri Karak, you can check them out at PJ New Town.
I liked the fried noodles the best. It had a rather unusual but appealing flavor. The dish originally comes in wet form, Cantonese style. I wasn’t in the mood for wet noodles and requested for a dry version, which they were nice enough to accommodate. The dry version, still came with a little gravy at the bottom but just enough to provide the noodles with some texture – thick, sticky, gooey feel. That gravy though – it was ginger-ish. I usually am not a fan of anything ginger, I simply do not like the overwhelming flavor but here, it somehow worked. It still was the first thing you’d taste but I guess the fact that it was mixed with the gravy that had on several other items, made it tolerably appealing. I liked the extra ‘kick’ the noodles offered.
