DAEBAK Limited Halloween Edition Ghost Pepper

by Taufulou 21/11/2020

The packaging of DAEBAK Limited Halloween Edition Ghost Pepper already indeed quite attractive that is available across 7-11. The pack comes with Ghost Pepper Cola Favourite Drink & Spicy Chicken Black Noodle at RM 8.90.

Just imagine yourself as drinking cold ghost pepper cola in spicy hot flavour + with the hot noodle along. This is the craziest combo. The cola itself is quite spicy. drink it slowly, if not it is going to choke you. That is where the spiciness will instantly hit you.

Put in hot water and let it sits for 3 minutes.

The outcome of the noodle is just perfect. Springy and pretty good. The heat will comes after your 2nd or 3rd bite. Thats where your tongue will get spicy and your tears starting to drip. (this is as for me).

The spiciness is different type of spicy that I have never encounter before. If you finish the whole cup, be prepare to enjoy your toilet session next day.

Marrybrown Mala-Tup series

by Taufulou 16/11/2020

written by Taufulou

I am certainly a big fan of Mala but never knew that it will be incorporated into fast food. Marrybrown have take a notch up by introducing their new special menu. Mala-Tup Ayam Goreng. I have tried it and it is indeed impressive for people whom have not tried Mala before.

This limited time menu comes in 4 options :

Ayam Goreng Mala 2pcs Combo = Harga dari RM 15.90
Ayam Goreng Mala 3pcs Combo = Harga dari RM 18.80
Bubur Ayam Mala-tup Combo = Harga dari RM 14.60
Mala-tup Box Meal = Harga dari RM 22.60

My personal preference will be 2 pieces of Malatup Chicken and best if they can have fries added into the Malatup chicken set. Then it would be perfect!

Those of you never try before, I would advise to hit on 2 pieces of chicken. The taste of the Mala is very mild, a bit of mild spicy and mild numb after taste (it wont happen during the first 2 bites but after you finish the first piece of chicken). Some of you might feel it immediately especially for first timer.

chicken no doubt is fried to perfection. Crispy inside out and chicken meat is juicy.

This is the Mala-tup Box Meal = Harga dari RM 22.60 You get fries, onion rings, a chicken burger, 1 piece of mala-tup chicken and coleslaw.

This box is good enough to ko me for my brunch till dinner. quite filling but I am in love with the Mele-tup frieds. If they do sell it separately. Go for it!

Another interesting combination is their Bubur Ayam Mala-tup. turns out to be better than expected. A nice mix hit of spicy, hot porridge alot of crispy bites and of course the chicken add nice bites to it!

Recommended!

Best advise to dine there to get the best experience of the chicken or consume within 15 minutes after take away. I did take away as 35 minutes when I reach home, the chicken is not as good as I am eating there.

High Tea @ The Ruma Hotel and Residence

by Taufulou 05/11/2020

written by Taufulou

High Tea is indeed not my thing as I find the price for it is quite steep for me. However when I saw @ivyaiwei posted about her experience for High-tea in The Ruma Hotel and Residence, then I asked her about her opinion. She just told me her no.1 spot. Best of all, CIMB card/Debit cardholders get 40% off!! Immediately I just went and book for it.

Just got an email that their promo had extended to November too. Menu right at the bottom.

Ruma Hotel and Residence would be like one of my recommendation for travellers with budget. Indeed it is a boutique hotel with nicely build up modern interior. I have not stayed here before but did came over for functions. It is indeed a nice place for picture taking.

Their high tea area is in Goutal room. During this time, reservation is highly recommended and have to send them email ([email protected]) for reservation confirmation. Then you have to make a deposit to secure the spot.

there are 2 sessions. 2.3pm or 3.30 pm. Upon arrival, you will be greeted with their handwashing ceremony.

From the menu, there area some selection of tea for you to choose from. Fret not, as hot water for the tea is refillable.

We had :

Chocolate Mint Tea
French Orange

Both tea were surprisingly good. Got their own taste charactor and it is light yet do not cover the actual tea taste. Pairs well with our tea set too.

as it was Pink-October, in support for Breast Cancer awareness campaign, they have created the tea set to be feature in pink theme.

the flow was to start from top tier then flow to bottom . However, it depend your own liking how you would want to kick start on it.

Not the usual pastries I have especially those tarts with beetroot – that gives you hint of earthy and hint of sweetness at the end is pretty good. Yet the cracker and topped with salmon cubes is savory and perfect!

Can see that they actually put in effort for their mini cakes as there are layers of flavours in it. After enjoying the whole series of items, only then I understand why IVY mention is her no.1.

If many of you want to pamper yourself for a nice afternoon treat, I guess with 40% off is a pretty good bargain and it is quite full actually. I am here mainly because of the 40% CIMB high tea Promo! 😀

What’s in for November?
Movember menu starts from 6th November:

Afternoon Tea available every Friday-Sunday
Afternoon Tea Session starts at 2:30pm-6pm.
Afternoon Tea is charged per person.
Cancellation Policy ( after payment) : 5 working days’ notice full refund / 3 working days’ notice 50% refund / 1 working days’ notice 100% deposit forfeited.

Coffee Place Food Fusion Local Food PJ Selangor

Therefore Cafe @ Menara Symphony, PJ

by Taufulou 30/10/2020

written by Taufulou

I am sure many of you know this famous Therefore Cafe for their instagramable place in Menara Symphony, PJ. A cafe that have nice pink frontage that captures many of our attention. Yet their food is a local fusion kind of menu that bring it a notch up to your not so usual cafe dining.

My visit to this cafe comes to early this year for a gathering.

My usual will be Latte to kick start.

Tex-Mal nangka nachos, with a local twist, I think this is pretty impressive for me. A dish that I think I would recommend to order as it is topped with tortilla chips with shredded jackfruit. An Asian-style salsa, guacamole, sour cream and cheese sauce @ RM 20

Sistem Buttermilk : @ RM 29 – boneless chicken breast roulade deep fried with seasoned flour batter, served with a creamy curried buttermilk sauce, sweet potato fries and mesclun salad.

And soft shell crab topped with waffle. I think its a dish that try too hard.

Overall, food and price tag okok la. This place do capture a few regular but overall food there are some hit and misses as everyone’s palate is different.

Brew and Bread @ Wisma MCA, KL

by Taufulou 19/10/2020

written by Taufulou

First came Brew & Bread when I was in F&B industry. Gotten free sample from my boss for their drip coffee. For a local roasters they are pretty impressive. Over the years the years, they have then build cafe to showcase their coffee and now with warm food. Their original outlet was sin Kota Kemuning then now another outlet in Wisma MCA at Jalan Ampang which is famous for their brunch in KL.

After the trail, their drip coffee had become one of my favourite before all others came out, of course with the most recent well known that most of my friend is buying is “perks”.

they have a display corner that sells their coffee drips, beans and some other merchandize.

of course, I am in for their single-origin filter coffee @ RM 14 which what they are famous for. Their latte @ RM 8 and Mocha @ RM 11 are equally good.

Read up some reviews, their food are pretty good too. Decided to try out their Truffle Bacon Carbonara with Bacon Brisket @ RM 26. It is creamy and they use like sort of fettuccini thicker version, that is cook to al-dante and fragrant is just right.

this is their signature that a lot of people shout out: Hot Bunny Crab @ RM 25. For price wise, it is a pretty good catch with a generous amount of crab meat, a bit hint of creamy spicy and herbs, yet cheese taste is prominent. No wonder it is a must-order. – recommended too.

A twist of indon – is their healthier version of Gado-Gado @ RM 14. The sauce they did it right, a bit peanut sauce just that healthier side.

Egg Benedict @ RM 26 with special in house marinated chicken. More like chicken kunyit. a nice twist which is not the usually classic. Time to change some taste?

French Toast @ RM 23. Broich type bread and a scoop of ice cream. Kinda normal nothing to shout about.

Sandwich of Truffle mushroom @ RM 13 and I guess this is the least favourite among the food we have tried. If can, avoid.

As we are here for birthday gathering with ex-colleague, after meals, cakes of course is a must.

cakes all so so only.

If you are here, I think their pasta series definitely stood out, follow by Brunch and maybe local delights. For me on my taste profile, rating them as one of the best coffee in KL for a local roaster.

Authentic Thai Street Food at Baan Korat Thai Restaurant @ Klang

by Taufulou 16/10/2020

written by Taufulou

There is this new hidden gem in Bandar Baru Klang that serve Thai Authentic street food. Operate by a lovely couple with his wife from Thai. A home-cook now by bringing her learning experience from mom and aunt to our table. Baan Korat Thai Restaurant is indeed one of the places to visit as it was a highly recommended place by a reader.

I find that their Thai street food style is quite similar to those in Hatyai!

They just started to run this place right after the first CMCO which is in June and now they are being hit again for CMCO 2. However, they are still operating now at this moment with limited seating.

their place is pack during lunchtime with their famous serving of that ala cart and their moo ping is a must-have according to many.

For the first time, I am here for their unique serving of Thai Claypot Steamboat (Jim Jum) @ RM 39.90 for 2 pax and also, of course, current famous street food Tomyum Mama Instant Noodle Pork @ RM 28 / Seafood @ RM 35 / Seafood & Mince Pork @ RM 38

their thai Ice tea is also pretty spot on. Thick Thai tea flavour and quite milky. Some of you might find it too sweet but then this drink I find it have to be sweet. One glass will do.

the reason I am here for this is I have never try Thai steamboat before and second, it is cook with charcoal.

The set comes with fresh prawns, squid, clams, slice pork , pork and chicken.

Serve along with 3 sauces which is homemade by the chef herself.

The soup is unique which is clear, fragrant, sweet from pork bone, yet add in with ginger, lemon grass, dry chili and hint of this leave that make the soup itself very unique and keep drinking on it.

After a while, we are ready to dig in. It is indeed pretty good as first time experiencing this.

Dipping with the sauce, it has its own flavour. Gren slightly sour, red a a bit spicy and sour. if were to choose, I personally felt the green chili taste better.

Here is the famous instant mama seafood pot at RM 35. Serve with Thai Roast Pork, Home made thai meat ball, clams, squid, eggs, and fresh prawns.

The noodle is cook to perfection. Broth is sweet, milky, creamy, mild spicy and hint of sour end. The soup is cook upon order.

Indeed one of the best Instant mama noodle pot I have had so far! – recommended!

Another dish is chef special classic dish – Baan Korat Special. Serve in Thai Clear soup with minced pork slab, meatball, clams. Drinking the soup itself is quite interesting and if you are in for some taste experience then squeeze lime and add-in of chili powder. It totally enhances the whole bowl of soup. @ RM 13.90

They also do serve mookata and other street food. I will definitely come back again to try out some of their other dishes. It seems like one of the best Thai Street food in Klang that I encounter at the moment. Maybe could beat some of the best thai street food in Pj.
