KGB (Killer Gourmet Burgers) @ Jalan Telawi, Bangsar

28/06/2013 11 Comments

After bubble milk hit hard on our local shores then what is the next buzz? Well, there are 2 actually as now little cafe’s are popping up in many corner and there are a few good ones and burger is also the next big thing here. One of the latest outlet to open its door to public is KGB (Killer Gourmet Burgers) that located the same row as Antipodean Jalan Telawi there.

Its a small shop that operating around the area that soon to be filled with many coffee joints. Started off bout less than a month if I am not mistaken and its start to gain its popularity over the neighbourhood with a few bloggeres blogged about them.

On our first visit we came it was rather dissapointed cuz we did not know the opereate only at night for the 1st month and for the following week, we decided to come back for dinner. STaff here are very helpful and friendly as they are explaining to us what to eat and try for first timer.

Menu are pretty straight forward with what types of meat you prefer and there is not much to choose from which makes us easier to make up our mind.

chicken bites are pretty good though, fried to crips and the best thing to pair with it is their special made sauce. Light sourish end that goes well with it.

Kimchi with Bulgogi Beef Fries @ RM 13.90

this is another item that attracted our attention. Looks good but the taste is still room for improvemement as we did gave our feedback to them.

If you cant take beef then this is one of the choices to go for. Seoul Chicken @ RM 15.90, find that the taste is bit funny.

on the size of the chicken breast that they are using, its quite thick, and still juicy after fried.

All their burgers come in their signature and one of the best is not only their patty is also their bun. I love it as its soft and fluffy yet toast to my likings.

The Bobcat burger @ RM15.90 made with luscious green chili slaw & jalapeno mayo. If you cant take spicy then skip this as the spicy dont hit you instantly. It comes after that. To me its still okay.

The Shack turns out to be one of my favourite in the list @ RM13.90 nett, the patty is fragrant and juicy top with a slice of cheddar cheese with Shack sauce sandwiched in the fresh, fluffy bread. I just called it Cheeze burger. One of the best in the list that wont go wrong. – Highly Recommended

The Tornado @ RM15.90 – Looks big that filled with onnion rings, fried egg and fiery mayo. I expect this to be spicy because of the word fiery mayo but didnt enlighten me with that.

I must say that the chef here are pretty good that able to make nearly all my range of burgers medium, that make it soft and juicy. All of us love it.

this is one of the special homemade sauce. Its good!

Remark: Do take not that some of the burgers are filled with sauces and it might get messy . . Do take tissue to prepare. 😀

Just Like It! A Revolutionary F&B @ 1-Utama

04/06/2013 No Comments

Few weeks back while waiting for movie, saw this new ice cream stall located infront of GSC 1-Utama ticketing counter with many people flocking around. Then only realise its something new. Just Like It

[No longer operate]

When I was travelling last year to Sydney, I did saw this concept of ice-cream and thought it would be very interesting or something new to me. With all the dry ice type smoke flowing out from the stand mixer. Just Like It! Ice cream is another revolutionary of F&B.

The concept of the outlet is rather unique and impressive with chilling nitrogen gas, all the staff looks like lab technicians with lab coats, beakers, volumetric flasks….

Well, if they are not ice cream then what are those? hmmm . .. Their offering of flavours are pretty unique with New Popcorn, Durian Durian, chocolate flakes or as above the menu you can see.

Can see that all the flavours are pretty concentrated.

and the add ons that we choose to blend along ..

Their process of ice-cream is rather interesting by pouring their N2 liquid and also the puree that they have.. .

This is how interesting as it would get with so much smoke from the mixer ..

After a while it became into solid form and tadaa.. our ice cream is made. . .

The process continues if you order other flavour, as they wash the item and prepare for next.

Tried both their Mango and Durian durian. The texture is smooth and taste of both flavour is not bad. Durian have the strong durian taste as they do add on little durian meat in it, yet I still find that overall mouthful taste, flavour and smoothness of it, still Sydney much better.

Nevertheless, its still one of the new concept in town that did make a buzz out of it. . Price at RM 7.90 – RM11.90. Still worth for you to try it out at least once, to see what is the difference between the rest of the ice cream.

Famous Marshall’s Burger @ Burmah Road, Penang

19/03/2013 No Comments

I guess for the pass 6 months is the big buzz off Burger and Cafe. In KL we have quite a few famous one like MYBurger Lab or street Burger Kaw Kaw (which is now overrated) with different version of it. In Penang Island, Marshall’s Burger had been a hit for the past 6 months with them starting selling burger at the road side in Pulau Tikus area, opposite Belissa Row that you will not miss a long queue at night after 8pm, this would make them hold the title Penang Best Burger. Not only that, the best part is they sell pork too.

Few months down the road, now they have successuflly bring the brand to another level by operating in a shop lot at Burmah Road or next to Penang Plaza.

A shop that filled with simple decoration in a old building with wooden menu that place all their signature burger on the wall.

Sitting place in here is rather limited as I was highly advise by my best friend to head there early, and I was lucky that they do operate for lunch on Weekends. as for weekedays only at night.

Menu is rather straight forward with few choices to choose from or different meat.

People like me, sure will do add on’s

Onion rings are pretty good by frying to perfection that its crisp inside out with Marshall special sauce, its like a combination of bbq with light sour sauce, will pair very well with beer. .Ended up order another portion RM 6.50

The Biscon with 2 beef patty, 2 cheddar cheeze and bacon@ RM 15.80

Classic Beef @ RM 8.90

For pork lover, you can opt for this .. The Boar that comes with 2 patty, 2 cheeze and bacon @ RM 16.50

Here is my special verison of burger as I order only The Bull – with 1 beef patty and cheddar and I add on with 1 pork patty @ RM 6

Then we deconstruct the beef patty . . .

Grill till the meat is just nice, not too dry yet not too solid as in between have slight airy feel. Just nice.

here is my pork patty and I find beef taste better.

Those who do not prefer beef or Pork you can go for chicken which is Bacon Special Chicken Thigh with a cheeze and patty @ RM 8.90

The burger is pretty good and their amazing signature is the sauce that makes the whole thing different. Only set back is the bread that they are using, not so fluffy and its doesn’t taste fresh. Sauce is good and if they can intorduce another 1 or 2 more then its perfect.

For this kind of price, its definitely a great bargain, and will surely return again.

If in Penang its will be a top notch place and good enough to satisfy your burger craving. Please do not compare to other joint in KL.

My friends are all a good fan of this brand.

Aus Trip (Sydney) Day 1: Moochi Frozen Yoghurt @ Strathfield, Sydney

14/12/2012 No Comments

Right after our dinner, few doors away is this yogurt stall is super pack with humans, as when I first arrive it had already attracted my attention to join along the crowd to try out what is so special about this Moochi Frozen Yoghurt place. My friend had never understand what is the whole buzz about whenever he come and dine at his favorite Korean BBQ food at Bassim.

As a tourist, of course I would keen to try on any food. During winter time its quite a good crowd despite yogurt is cold and many people are still keen to get brain freeze. I jump onto the queue and my friend scolded me, because of you I only try out. Normally I wouldn’t care much, as anything that I have to queue, they wont enjoy my business.

I wonder how did this brand came about. . .

They even have their own drinks.

A simple menu that the have and their price is very reasonable.

Moochi comes in different sizes and if you are a big eater then MASSIVE would be your choice. They have 4 flavours to choose from. Original, Green Tea, Pomegranate and Watermelon

Right after the order you can choose your toppings. Ranging to about 21 toppings selection.

Then pick up a bottle of Pomegranate peach passion white tea @ AUD 4.50. Slightly sourish, and strong hint of passion fruit taste and we find it slightly sweet to our liking. Its good though if they can tone down the sweetness 20% then would have been perfect.

Jeng Jeng Jeng, I choose a small cup to go after as we are super stuff right after super heavy dinner. Chose Original with 3 toppings, @ AUD 5.40 with mango, lychee follow by unique flavor that for the first time I have come accross is Watermelon with another 2 topings, oreo and honeydew (if i am not mistaken). Watermelon is a better selection.

Texture of the yogurt is smooth, aromatic and slightly more creamy that I like it. After putting into your mouth, it melts slight faster and upon so many brands that is in Malaysia, this brand definitely stood up.

Plan B @ Paradigm Mall, PJ

05/11/2012 No Comments

Plan B had received a huge buzz over blogging for quite some time when they first started, cuz of their unique concept that they have. Modern New York chic concept that had gain many diners heart that is cosy, nice interior that made them stood out from many of other cafe outlet. Then I try out another of their concept or I would call a slight changes of their concept from Plan B which is Journal by Plan B at Publika. Many people say good things about this outlet on their food. I try out their brunch turns out to be good too.

with one of their latest outlet, Plan B at Paradigm Mall that located below Star bucks is one of the latest addition to the mall or expansion of their cafe.

Check out their interior design as this section is outside. . .chilling .. .

Just love their interior design .. .

Lets check out their menu . ..

Latte @

Soft Shell Crab Spaghetti Carbonara @ one of the more oustanding dishes compare to the rest we have although its near tasteless, with soft shell crab quite oily. .

This soup is very normal, nothing special as it taste like alot MSG in there and its very salty . . .

Cheese Burger

It had won our heart when we first saw the presentation with melted cheese on top of the patty. Nothing special, yet sligltly salty . .

Signature of the night which is Lamb Pie, over baked that the crust is hard as the colour itself already mention it, lamb in it is overcook and the best of all, its way too salty.

This is the first time we never finish our food yet Marcus was way too hungry, he tried to finish it just left a few bites and gave up. We ended went down to the lower ground to hunt for snacks. 😀

One thing I understand which is different mall have different market as this outlet we think that its a let down or the crowd for Plan B just love salty flavour or it was the chef that had overdoze it. Anyway, with the price that we are paying, we can try other food. 🙂

Hopefully they improve on that.

Best Neighborhood Burger – MyburgerLab @ Seapark, PJ

14/09/2012 No Comments

I guess the hype of burger will never cool down in blogsphere. First you have a big buzz on pork burger over the years and one of the most recent buzz is homemade American burger style. I bet many of you have read reviews about this place before, MyBurgerLab that had made a huge buzz over the blogsphere for the past 2-3 months.

After bugging from my friend and finally I decided to drop by. I thought the huge buzz of this will cool down over the months, I guess it just proof me wrong, as they have strong crowd of loyal customers and I do even have friends that go every week as their burger is just addictive according to one of them. Beware, as their operating times are very limited.

A new outlet that recently open by 3 buddies that had made burger ventures into new dimension. MyBurgerlab is like an experimental lab for them, or more like a food playground that their creative creation being put onto the menu for customers to hunt for.

I am here as early as 6.30pm on weekdays and look at the crowd. Its Crazy and people are queuing out thru the door to order their favourite burger. Some people are hunting for seats. Its a small area, I would best advise you order and make a take away.

Calling number is 77 and the order number had went up to 130. Average waiting time for your burger could take up 45minutes – 70 minutes. So be patient while waiting for your burger as if you do come here and dine, do expect to wait.

Their menu are pretty straight forward with a few choices to choose from the either Beef, Chicken or Vege.

Everything is prepare fresh from the kitchen. . . Even their charcoal bun they made themselves.

Beef A++ @ RM15

Sharp Cheddar , Caramelised Onions, Shiitake and Enoki Mushrooms

Elvis Presley is not display on their menu, order upon request. 😀

One of the best burger I have come accross that its not too dry and peanut bugger mix pretty well with the jam that create the extra umph of it.

It is advisable that treat this burger as a desert burger, as once you eat this burger, you cant really taste other burger as the taste of peanut will cover the rest of it.

Say cheese – Chicken with cheddar @ RM 11. Something light and delightful. Sure enough to satisfy you.

Beautiful Mess @ RM18

Grilled Portobello Mushrooms, Sunny Side Up, Mozarella Cheese. With the name itself, be assure that it is going to make a mess for you as you press slightly harder, the egg yolk will ooze out from the burger to make it a bit juicy moist and if do not hold it well, there goes your finger and next destination is basin to wash your hand.

This is how many burger we order for 5 pax.

I must say that burger here are damm awesome! Moist, not too hard as well prepare and every mouth bite is satisfying that the cheddar cheeze is melted on the patty with their own lab dressing, it just makes you want more. Now I understand why people are craving for it.

Personal favorite – Beautiful Mess and Elvis Presley.

Here we are with the hungry hunters, Anna, Eunice and Me.

and of course Immi, Ren and all the best to you in UK see you soon eh~

To patron this place, it is highly advisable you eat something like before you come while waiting for it and please do come before 8pm as usually it sold out before 8pm on those signature.

People do come here queue as early as 4pm right before the shop opens as they operate only at night. If you are craving for nice homemade burgers, this would be definately one of the place I am recommending as the pricing of the buger is slightly higher and I am sure many people would not mind to pay as they have its class of its own. Just by Adding additional RM5 – you will get frieds and free flow soft drinks.
