overall I agree to others its a better than average noodle recipe! However the side dishes ordered "水云吞和猪筋丸 WanTon and Pork Tendon Ball" did not impress me.
My Personal Opinion Your best bet here, in my opinion, is their loh shi fun in a delicious soup base (so, you must like loh shi fun to begin with to come away with an enjoyable meal).....complemented by (perhaps) a side order of satisfying fried wantans.
Verdict: Although the Loh Shu Fun is their signature dish but to my dismay it didn’t meet my standard for a good bowl of noodles.
Summary Good discovery of this place, get to know what's all the hype all about. Price was great according to the portion served but the taste and aroma was just mediocre. Queue was slightly unexpected long, embrace longer wait if the person in front of you place big orders.
A standard plate of Nasi Lemak Goreng with fried chicken cost RM8 which is topped with cucumbers and soft boil egg. The rice was soft and moist, packed with “wok hei” flavour. It was a tad bit spicy and clearly the best part of the entire dish. Having a “wok hei” flavoured sambal rice instead of regular nasi lemak rice was certainly an interesting experience.
Rasa nasinya sangat lemak. Dimakan bersama dengan sambal istimewa Chef Fauzey makin naik rasanya. Udang gorengnya juga turut penuh berperisa. Ayam goreng berempahnya memang sangat sedap. Sebab itulah pelanggan Chef Fauzey tak pernah putus-putus datang kerana masakan nasi lemak kukus goreng ini memang sedap
Claypot Chicken Rice has been one of my (Puri) favourite dishes of all time. It has a unique flavour, aroma and texture that can only derive from a claypot. In this episode, we head over to Restoran Veng Soon in PJ Old Town where they've been serving one of the best claypot chicken rice since 1977. The best way to enjoy this dish is by dining in and eating straight from the claypot itself.
This claypot chicken rice shop must be popular among those who who about it, full house at dinner hour. It specializes claypot chicken rice with vege/tofu/soup as add-ons.
加了咸鱼的瓦煲鸡饭,更香、更惹味~! 吃到底部的饭焦,更脆香可口…… * 咸鱼需加钱 *
PJ oldtown舊區粿條湯已經搬遷了,其實粿條湯檔口的茶餐室名字是叫《順利茶餐室》,搬去不會遠,只是隔一條街而已,所以大家不要去錯地方啦!#粿條湯 #PJoldtown #oldtown粿條湯 #馬來西亞美食 #bryanbee
At rm$6, quite a generous amount of 鸡丝 chicken slices (I think maybe some 猪肉片 pork meat slices too), 2 鱼丸 fish balls, a little bit of 猪油炸 pork lard plus some sprinkles of 炸蒜葱 fried onions/garlic and 葱 julienne chives on my bowl of flavorful broth with 河粉 hor fun.
Verdict: We were happy with the food we ordered that day and this place certainly warrant a revisit to indulge the Ice Kacang again as well as check out other food offering.
My Personal Opinion Among some of my favourites were the fish stuffed root (which I now know as sang kan yuen), fried sticky rice, siew mai, deep fried carrot cake, brinjal, stuffed beancurd puffs and steamed BBQ buns.
Dim Sum was good! Service was bad for an establishment which charges service tax.
Golden bun RM3.60 for 2 – I love this – the buns are filled with pumpkin and the juice will just ooze into your mouth with every bite –heavenly!
My 2 grouses were the Fish Head has a small head! More vegetables than fish head. The Tofu were not executed well. Taste was not there. But overall with 10 oldies, sometimes other matters took precedent.
Verdict: Overall the food at Tingkap Cafe was fairly good. I like the wallet friendly price tag and the wide variety of food available but please come here earlier as some food (eg: the local kuih) might run out earlier.
If you’re looking for a really good traditional bowl of ais kacang – we can’t recommend Aunty Peggy enough.
Overall, we rather enjoyed Jessie’s Special ABC although we still prefer Aunty Peggy’s a few doors down. Jessie’s also serves Honey Jelly Shaved Ice and other local drinks such as barley and Kedondong Sour Plum.
Chicken Rendang with Rice, 15 ringgit. Once we were done with the waffle, as we were both still hungry, we decided to order a rice bowl for early dinner. Yummy 🙂 I like that the rice was real soft and moist, once you mixed everything up – it literally becomes one pile of gooeyness. The chicken came in generous portion, nice chewy cubes of meat. I usually like my gravy packed with flavors and spices, the gravy here was a tad milder than what I am used to but it was yummy nonetheless. They also included some steamed carrots and couliflowers which was an awesome addition to the dish. It gave the dish some crunch amidst the gooey.
The Banana Leaf Waffle (RM25) was served with a big vade waffle, sprinkled with balsamic rice vinegar crackers and curry leaves. On the side it came with tomato chutney, coconut ice cream, mango jelly with chilli, mango curry chantilly, all served on top of an actual banana leaf. The texture of the waffle was dense yet refined, very yummy. Regardless which accompaniments you chose, every bite was bursting with flavour that you could possibly think of when having Indian food, from vade, to chapati, to tosai. Our favourite was the mint chutney and yogurt (tiryu), as both had a taste reminiscent of the real pudina chutney and that you could find when eating roti naan.
An Indian-flavour, inspired and savoury Contains waffles, yoghurt and tons of chutney The magical element that makes you sigh and go “DEI…” is Forêt Blanc’s genius Banana Leaf Waffle V2.0 that tastes EXACTLY like Vade!
Nice banana leave rice.
Verdict All in all, Sri Ganapathi Mess’s was a super satisfying lunch and we trust you will most likely leave with a stuffed and happy tummy. At least our friends over Chasing A Plate felt that way. Prices here are slightly above the average banana leaf eatery but the taste of their food totally made up for it.
Rice + 4 Vegetables + Papadum, 6 ringgit, Chicken Varuval, 8 ringgit, Sura Puttu, 6 ringgit, Fish Cutlet, 5 ringgit = 25 ringgit. Loved every single ingredient on the leaf. Yum! The vegetable option for the day was spinach, cucumber, bittergourd and brinjal. Delicious. The chicken curry was da bomb. Spicy and thick, flavorful, guaranteed to tickle your tastebuds with every single mouth you take. The meats was awesome as well. Couldnt have asked for a better wholesome Indian lunch.
[Pork-free] Let Masala Wheels take you to flavour-town! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place for great food, service and social work.
Flavours of dishes were wholesomely delicious – our fried tenggiri slices were fresh, well-marinated, juicy and very tasty
Pretty good banana leaf rice which include Indian dessert.
The Bak Kut Teh soup was very flavourful. The herbal taste was very strong, the soup was on the saltier side but we did not feel thirsty
兴记肉骨茶 Heng Kee Bak Kut Teh is probably one of the better known BKT in the PJ area as leaving at 7pm+ on a Tuesday night, the place was already full!
Bak kut there here is similiar to those in Klang that serve in individual bowls. Soup here is not as thick as to compare those in Klang yet herbs taste here is mild enough to cater to many general taste bud. I still prefer mine to have strong herbs taste. Soup colour is slightly clear yet aromatic when lingers in your mouth. Generally, if you want a bowl of pippin hot Bak Kut Teh that need not drive far, this would be an ideal place.
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:
As you can see, the Chicken Lunch Set comes with a full pack of white rice + chicken curry with 4 pieces of meaty, juicy chicken + long beans + thick lentil filled sambar + cucumber salad. Food was delicious. There was a nice variety of dishes that came with the set, it all tasted yummy and flavorful.
The Mutton Bone Marrow Curry was just awesome. Being a buffet spread, you could take as much as you want and me being a mutton lover, I was simply in ecstasy. Taste wise, the thick spice gravy was just superb and I would rate this at 10/10
Will I be back? Well, I don’t see anything that appeals to me on the breakfast menu nor the lunch. Lunch is simply rice (or puttu /iddiyappam) with sides while dinner is just kottu again, though with choices of puttu, iddiyappam or roti. However, I don’t mind returning on a Sunday for their RM38/pax Sunday lunch buffet. I was promised authentic Sri Lankan crab curry and unlimited curries.
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.
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
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.
