Pork Noodle @ Hong Cha, OUG

28/08/2012 No Comments

In KL it is quite hard to find some place that serve nice instant cook Pork Noodle, and as one of the recent introduction by my friend Ian that turns out to be one of his favorite place when comes to Pork Noodle soup, Restaurant Hong Cha that serve a mixture of Japanese home made sushi and their mains are Pork Noodle Soup.

Located in the heart of OUG right whereby pasar area, or infront of BP station if I am not mistaken is filled with a side by side kopitiam that flank this shop.

As I was told by my friend, they do sell in the morning/ afternoon session right behind at the corner coffee shop that most people would know and pricing its slightly cheaper compare to this shop that only cater for night crowd.

Price are pretty decent and there are other options too if you dislike pork noodle.

I was highly recommend by Ian to go for dry option that it actually separate the soup and noodle. Look at those chunky pork lard that they have added in and shredded pork along.

Then serve along with a bowl of pork soup that filled with some seafood. ‘Pork and Seafood Mee’ @ RM 6.50.

They are pretty generous with the ingredient that being added in with chunks of pork meat and best of all, which for the first time I came across they added some seafood, squid and prawns to make the soup base more sweet. Slightly salty to my liking with a fried garlic and oil being added on to make it a perfect bowl. Looking at the additional item I can add, of course egg is a must to be added to make it even better.

Overall, I still prefer my pork noodle soupy version and this place is still quite a decent place to dine for pork noodle during night time. By my list so far, I still love the stall at Restaurant Win Heng Seng for the instant cooking pork noodle at Jalan Imbi.

31/10/2011 3 Comments

Since the new Fernicular Train (click here) is up and running, alot of tourist have flock this place to take an opportunity to head to Penang Hill as one of the main tourist attractions. After a short walk from the station, then as we walk pass by, we saw this unique hut that mention David Brown’s Restaurant, but the restaurant is no where to be seen.

That makes us more curious and we decided to head in and try out this David Brown Restaurant.

As you have to climb up the stairs, you will head into a garden area and there are more stairs heading up . ..

We just follow the track then till there is a small little wooden gate. . .

come by this huge bungalow with huge garden at the front.

here is the front view and just get to know its a very classic English house that had preserve and did a make over of the place to maintain its classic heritage look.

You can enjoy your afternoon session here. . . with water lily pond by the side ..

When you enter the house, you will be impress by the interior decorations.

Its so heritage British colonial interior is preserved as when I saw this, this place is perfect for wedding photography . .

At this kind of place and ambiance, you will have to dig into your pocket for a simple meal and drinks.

Even handmade grasshopper is hopping around to greet . .:p

Simple Tea

All of us were having good time, with Andrew and Carmen laughing at a Joke . . .

Our expensive afternoon tea set.

If you seated futher out at the edge of the restaurant, this is the view you going to enjoy, Marvelous view over Penang. That is why, its not cheap . .Well, you pay for the ambiance and view. .

I would say, if you are looking for something more relax and something different for meal or afternoon tea, this would be a good place to hang out once in a blue blue moon . .

*have not actually tried the food as came here for light meals only.

Dinner we choose to dine in The Emperor is because of their track record by winning a few awards, one of it is Malaysia’s Best Restaurant Award .. .

It is quite impressive that this is the first time I experience a restaurant with a design of a connecting bridge over to the dining area .. .

They also do have private rooms that can host up to 2 tables which is perfect for family gathering. .

We kick start with their dim sum and pricing is quite reasonable. .

“Har Kow” or Prawn dumplings, Siew Mai, Charcoal Custard bun

This is certainly one of my favourite with the bun is soft and I just love how the custard just ooze out from the bun, just beware, do not eat it while it is served, as let it cool down . The custard sauce with burn your tongue. .

Xiu Long Bao is served with a bit of ebiko on top and the soup in it just juicy and aromatic with its chicken flavour. Dip with vinegar and insert some ginger is just perfect.

I have always love double boil soup as it is simple, clear and full with aroma, Red dates and Chicken soup

Chicken Salami and Lobster Salad

Fresh meat cover in some fruit salad dressing which is juicy from every bite and best is also served along with chicken salami.

Butter Prawns

Bean curd with Asparagus, just love this dish alot, as it was perfectly fried with a bit crips all over and its very soft inside, when you have a bite together with the mushroom, the taste is just perfect!

Kam Heong Crabs

It was a satisfying dinner and good news to CIMB World Master Card or Visa Infinite gets 50% discount for 2 diners.
