I have had this dish before and I'm afraid I was very disappointed with this one. There was no wok hei fragrance and the whole thing was just salty and flat. The beef slices were very tender but bland.
Char Kway Teow was damn good. It was the highlight of the meal compare to their signature Nasi Lemak. It’s flavourful and has an excellent smoky flavour in it. YUM!!. Char Kway Teow @ RM 19.74
Chicken Satay (RM 11.90) We ordered the satay, choose within the beef or the chicken satay, and this is something not to be missed here too. The succulent chicken meat is well marinated with flavours. Dipped them in the peanut based gravy and you will be sure to falling in love with it.
What do We Like about WonderMama, One Utama? -The sharing set allows us to have variety of stuff to try
Wondermama has inflated prices on their food, but it is possible to get a good meal for lower than you expected if you get one of their value sets or sharing platters. On our visit there was an additional unexplained 15% discount on food, so we ended up paying an astoundingly great price for two huge dishes with drinks. Pair that with an enjoyable atmosphere and perennially cheerful staff and Wondermama is worth a visit. Especially if you’re in that part of 1 Utama’s old wing and can’t be arsed to walk all the way to that restaurant in the new wing that you want.
Nasi Lemak Pandan Chicken Rendang Combo at MYR 15.90+ (10% service charge = MYR 17.40 nett) with a drink of either Celery Apple Honey or Bandung Gula Melaka from the special Merdeka promo menu.
Other than that, we also ordered the ichicabin chicken which was quite nice as well. The chicken is being fried and added with the special sauce that is simply delighting.
The traditional and wholemeal buns as well as half boiled eggs are quite ok. Bread is toasted crunchy and the melting-effect made patrons wanting to order more. They also serve Barley drink.
We will always eat at this place (Nyonya Colors) when we cannot decide on where to eat. Though the food is not as tasty as some other places but it is a safe place to eat as we know what we are getting.
Being a laksa lover, I would definitely not to say NO to asam laksa. The laksa taste was not bad not comparing to Penang Laksa. The laksa gravy is very thick and there is quite much ingridients on it. Taste: 4/5 Price: RM 9.00
Yam Cake. It’s nice.
Lunch Set - Nasi Pandan Rempah Fish - MYR 18.55 nett with a free drink. I like the fresh chili paste on top of the okras because it is not very spicy and it tastes very refreshing.
Conclusion : I, being a big fan of peranakan food, truly give this place high praises as they truly deserved it. Food quality was superb. Portion was acceptable too. But somehow I found the price to be slightly on the high side. A worthy place for fine Peranakan food. Truly acceptable and remarkable. A 4/5.
There is also Portugese Fried Mee which is quite nice. The taste was simply delighting and I can say is a thumb up for this. Taste: 4/5 Price: RM 9.50
What do We Like about Little Cravings, One Utama? -Budget and affordable meal, yet value for money
Kochi Pulut Hitam - strong taste of pulut hitam which I like.
Last but not least, we ordered the Malaysian breakfast which is the kaya butter roti bakar. The bread was thick with the crispy texture of the bread is indeed nice and delighting. The kaya which comes with the bread is also good. Taste: 4/5 Price: RM 3.90
Served not just famous chendol but also loads of Penang food too.
Chendol: MYR 6.50 nett is now MYR 6.13 nett and Rojak: MYR 8.90 nett is now MYR 8.40 nett.
12 noon - lunch for two. Ordered the combo to share - 1 noodle, 1 delight item and 1 drink for only MYR 18.90 nett. Prawn Mee - Normal price is MYR 10.90 nett. Sotong KangKung - Normal Price is MYR 9.90 nett and Hot Cocoa drink - Normal price is MYR 5.50 nett so quite a significant saving by ordering the combo. Next time I am going to request for the sotong kangkung sauce to be served separately because they put in too much sauce.
What do We Like about Little Nyonya, One Utama? -Wide range of Nyonya cuisines in the menu -Assam pedas and pai tee were good
What do We Like about Baba Nyonya House? -The many variety of kuih in their menu
After reading about mee jawa at Nancy's blog and mee rebus at STP's blog, I went in search of them and found the above - Mee Rebus at MYR 12.50+ (5% service charge = MYR 13.15 nett). It has half a hard boiled egg, some vegetables, potatoes, squid, tofu and very thick gravy.
Today I was having my lunch at Penang Flavours located at One Utama Shopping Center. Did pass by there few times, always crowd in build. During this Ramadan, decided to go there enjoying Penang Cuisine. This time, intended to order those are not chef recommended. We ordered kuey teow soup, popiah, yam cake and 2 hot soya bean. It's bit home made style for me, feeling healthy. :D
