Of course, I had to buy some bread to eat it with and these days, I love toasting my bread with those grill pans, the one with lines so the toast would have lines on themā¦nicely toasted but not all brown and hard, lightly crusty on the outside, still soft on the inside.
My missus had their seafood aglio olio (RM20.90)ā¦which was very good, much nicer than my girlās carbonara ā one can only eat so much of the latter before one gets jelak. It was a bit too rich and creamy
Well, they have a new guy now and I had his stewed pork noodles (RM5.00)ā¦the other morning. Boy! It sure was very very good!
Well, this time around, I had the kampua mee (RM3.00)ā¦and the pian sip, dry (RM3.00)ā¦and I donāt know if after all this time, she had improved or I was hungry as I had not had breakfast that morning but I thought both of them were very nice.
I decided to go for their sambal eco fish (RM14.90)ā¦one of my favourites here and I had not had that for quite sometime now. Just like the Assam Fish, they use the tilapia from Batang Ai, so fresh that at times, they are even delivered alive! The sambal was at best, o.k. and as expected for a place like this, it was not spicy and I wished they had some cut fresh chilies in the soy sauce ā they had that in the photograph in the above display on the wall. Thankfully, the fish was great and I liked the pickled cucumber too so I would say that I did quite enjoy the meal.
I dropped by here that day to buy the yam puffs (RM2.50 each)ā¦that my girl likes a lot and since she was home those few days, she could enjoy them for breakfast or for tea. They are very nice and I like the fibrous exterior, the char siew filling is like what is in their steamed buns
I tried their steamed char siew pao (RM2.00)ā¦before and it was very nice so I stopped by that day to buy a few home to re-steam in the morning for breakfast
I saw the kampua mee guyā¦preparing something with a whole lot of pork liver and he told me it was his Sarawak laksa and some customer requested for the liver to be added. He asked me if I wanted to give it a try and looking at the brothā¦in the pot, I thought it looked good so I ordered a bowl (RM5.00)ā¦but no, I did not ask for the liver. It turned out to be very niceā¦
I asked for the moon version of the Foochow fried noodles, wet (RM4.00)ā¦and yes, it was very good just that it could do with a bit more added ingredients, the green vegetables, at least ā I am sure an extra leaf or two would not be all that expensive. The next time around, I will ask if they have the special. I donāt mind paying more even if it is just a few slices of liver and a little bit more meat.
