Do you all still remember the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan few months ago that it had affected one of their nuclear reactor till the Jap government at taking high safety precautions on that. Kin Shui Tei Japanese Restaurant AS I am a big fan of Japanese food, during that time I get to discover that actually there are a few ports that export their fresh seafood ingredient to other parts of the world and which I get to know and explain by a few Japanese restaurant during that time was, most of the restaurant in Malaysia their ingredient is import through the southern port at japan which the quake hit wayyyyy up in the north whereby the nuclear reactor is located up there too.

For me, I cannot just think like last time tsunami hit Acheh does that mean the whole Indonesia is in trouble? usually nope which is just affected a small part of town and people assume is the whole country. For me I still support Japanese food as that time the TVB series that show alot on Sushi had made my crave for it alot, I still eat it too. Now, next in the line is Kin Shui Tei Japanese Restaurant which is located inside of Tropicana Golf Club.

Start off with one of my favourite Cold Sake which is very mild in taste, easy to drink and smooth. It doesnt taste very strong in alcohol yet the the more you drink and the after effect will be like wine, you wont feel the kick in many glasses, once kicks in, you will be in another world. . 🙂

kin (2)

Deep Fried Shrimps then you squeeze with lemon to make it a bit sourish, and let it soak for a while into the crispy fried shrimps then its good!

kin (3)

 Edamame is not one of my preference, I just go along as it is boil in hot water then add on with a bit of salt to bring up the taste a bit.

kin (4)

Seasonal Anago Tempurawith Deep fried sea eel with Japanese tempura style with crunchy vegetables.

kin (5)

Special Hokkaido Chirashi Sushi @  RM98 

kin (6)

kin (7)

Combination of a few fresh ingredient in sashimi and I can say that every piece that put into my mouth I am enjoying every bits of it, that the sashimi is super fresh.

kin (8)

Beef tofu Katsu Don RM38

kin (9)

Everytime when comes a dish with tofu, most of them will just stuff it infront of me first saying that being taufulou you must eat your own first -_-“”””. . . . The tofu is very soft, fried well on the edge on the skin with egg coated abit that makes it aromatic and  eat along with fragrant rice, just perfect.

This is the first time I tried out this Smoked Ayu as was told is a sweet fish, while I use my chopstick to poke through it, doesnt seem like a fresh fish cuz a bit sold, but when put inside my mouth, the aroma just burst, with sweetness and fresshness of it. GOOD!@ RM55 

kin (11)

Lamb rib steak with homemade special sauce @ RM50 

kin (12)

Teppan Seafood Special @ RM98

kin (13)

Seafood Kimuchi Udon @RM39

kin (14)

When I tried this, I was like, eh, izint that this is kimchi, and how come Japanese restaurant serve Korean food ah, well, I just eat it, which is their kimchi is homemade and the taste is nice and I just love mine to be more spicy then it would taste even better, the texture of udon is just nice, not too soft yet it is springy.

kin (15)

As human being, we always take safety precious over the food from that country to avoid the best rather than purposely go find fault, as time pass during the event, people concern grew over food safety and Kin Shui Tei is one of the first restaurant in Malaysia to prove to their customer that they are actually radioactive free by scanning from this high tech device that they bought from US which previously US reluctant to sell it to Malaysia because its no need and not affected.

for a human to have a side effect on the radio active which will need at least reading of 100,000 and above and anything less than 20,000 is harmless. . . As some customer is scared of the food and will ask where does your product come from, and when mention from Japan they will ask safe or not, then will prove to them by using this device.

kin (17)

For Kin Shui Tei to serve even better they have import their ingredient from different parts of the world such as rice from USA, scallops and salmon from Norway, Tuna from Indonesia, Unagi from Taiwan and the list goes on.

It is definately safe to dine in here as all their food had went through extreme check if the item come from Japan. For me, where every there is good food, I will just go hunt . .

King Crab (19)

At first I did not bother to eat this yet as it involves using hand and I was still trying out other dishes, it was not until Sunny start eating it, and seeing the way he it is so tempting till I could not resist and jump in to grab the crab.

When I dig to find the crab part that I want, my fingers already covered with the creamy sauce and when I lick it, OMG! I was like in heaven. It was so rich in taste, creamy and I just cannot stop licking the crab craw. The meat is solid hard which shows the sign its fresh. This is one of the best butter crab that I have had so far and surely its a higly recommended dish by me if you do go to this restaurant.

Then Dato requested us to try to eat with the ‘Fried Man Tou’ and without much hesitation, I just walap the man tau and dip it into the butter crab and I was in heaven, with the creamy thick sauce and crispy warm man tau . . . I just wish I could have more of it, and that makes Andrew want to have the last piece of man tau as he keeps staring.

During the dinner, we have a special honor guest that dine with us too which is the restaurant owner ‘Dato Marcus Kam’, a young man who graduated as the Chemical Engineer and with the MBA qualification that has burning desire in everything that he is interest in. He is also a speak in a lot of events, and we have learn a lot from him during the dinner, to him, a great business talk would not be perfect if without wine.

I could not deny that we had a great food and would be one of the best seafood restaurants to recommend in the area. *Non-Halal

After long hard day of walking around which I am looking foward for this dinner since from the very begining of day 1. As i have been told by my friend this buffet is very nice and fresh. Famous for its sashimi and the most signature is the beef. Located in a walking distance of Central station which is located under a basement. We book a certain section of it as we flock with 40 ppl in there. 😀
This buffet cost HKD350 per pax. Which worth every penny to spend on it.


The interior is deco with Japanese style. The sliding doors, the private area and some VIP room.

The best part deal of the dinner is we were given a free flow of cold and hot sakae compliment by my friend. Not Restaurant.
When we were seated down and I busily look through at the buffet menu, then we were served with a Abalone each. A jump of excitement and I thought I can order as many as I can. After I swallow the whole thing down and my friend asked me…y so fast..must slowly enjoy ma..Cuz all of us were given 1 a complimentary by Steven… I directly DOWN…I thought eat all I can…
First plate of sashimi that were pre order by my friend. The sashimi look sooo good then when I see it I were like swallowing my sliver.
This is the ‘Salmon, Tuna, Sweet shrimp, Scallop and Sword Fish’ is soooo fresh. I have never eaten this kind of freshness since when I was in Melbourne.
This plate is filled with ‘Salmon, Amberjack, Sword Fish, Scallop’. The scallop is so fresh that we ordered more than 5 plates.
‘Horae Mackerel Tataki and Sweet Shrimp’ which you cant have anough of it. We were just walaping the sashimi like nobody’s business. Enjoying every piece that entered into our mouth.
Next we move to goreng goreng stuff…‘Fried Toufu’ which fried with certain nice aroma contain in it and its very soft from the inside. Dip it with the sweet sauce given, gives you the best taste.
‘Grilled Eel’ Well marinated and well cook by the chef which still preserve the softness of the fish and the skin just melts on your tongue.
‘Teriyaki Squid’ Grill well from the inside out, never too over grill and its very chewy, just as what as we expected.
Cant really remember what is this called but it was cut to a very thin slices of beef and grill it to 50% cook and you can still see the juicyness and the softness of a meat suppose to be. Was stuff with a asparagus. One plate is not enough.
‘Grilled Cod Fish’ is well marinated with the Japanese sauce and grilled to perfection. Can still make its slices and softness of the cod fish still maintain.
I just cannot describe how good is this plate. The prawn’s freshness which taken to grill and the scallop was perfectly grill.
‘Fresh Baked Oyster’. I walap this whole plate bymyself. The combo of the cheeze which was served with fresh oyster, just cant have enough of it.

This I do not know what is it called as it was ordered by my friend, taste weird at first but you would want more after that. Something which you cant find in our Malaysian japanese restaurant.
‘Shark Fin Handroll’. Something worth to try on.
‘Grill Beef’ adding on with the slices of fried garlic that soak into the meat and eating along with it, with half done cooking makes you drool for more.
This is a chicken leg knee part which is fried to golden brown and I do not really know how to enjoy this but the rest of my friend were happily eating it. Feels that you are like bitting their nerves.
Cant remember what is this called also but with the sweet japanese sauce that add in, makes the whole stick lickable.
This fish is well grill and filled with alot of fish roe inside its stomach.
‘Gyoza’ which is very well fried and crispy on the main layer of skin and inside filled with meat. Wont too fancy eat as I have eaten better one.
After eating lots of raw and goreny goreng.. so we move to steam boat. My talbe order the ‘clear soup’ base.
We were told to hantam on the beef and lamb slices. So we ordered alot.
With added on seafood dish to pour into it to make the soup taste even better.
Busy preparing the pot.
This is what it have become after hantam all in.
After eating too much, we need to take a break in between to let it digest. So let the camwhore session begins.
As agai, Gay Keong(on right) in action again, and Ivan got drugged and waiting to be brought back home… They are not gay but the gayiest pic ever taken.
Post with Karlina, don really know what is she trying to do.

With this Auntie Angie…just like to disturb her. Don know why. But seriously, she is a heavy drinker. I salute her. Drinks alot of hot and cold sake already still no problem.
This si lang Pat as always like to kacau me. It is very wrong to seat us together because we talk like cat and dog.
A failure of Sake advertisement. Surely the company bankrupt, reason why, me the male model..
With the rest of the indo friends which from Surabaya.
After damm all out camwhoring session, of course back to and enjoying my meal.
Soon after we left the restaurant, and on the way walking back to the train station to catch the last train as we still got 15 minutes left. So walk walk walk and saw this bike parking on the road so yeng. Directly run over and camwhore with it.
Police on duty to give ‘Saman’ and were were like busying :
and asked the policemen to take pic with us. He said me very in the hurry, need to catch traffic offenders. Told him 1 only..1 only..very fast 1.. he said okay. Then we continue walking. To the next junction saw him again, so the rest of the ppl just run like siau lang and shout at the policeman that they want to take pic with himm…
We asked him, when you go catch traffic offenders, can we take pic with your bike, at first he was reluctant then ask as where are we from. From other countries then he was like go ahead. Kenny they all take a pic with the policeman and request them to tag him on Facebook. Damnm geng..HK policeman also FB kaki.
Me on the Hong Kong policebike..wakkaka..
Having a great time at the restaurant and of course with the 1st class food and serving, surely wouldnt mind to intro my friends to go there makan.

It has been quite a while since I last went to snorkelling and this is the famous Marine Park nearby Redang Island whereby the most satisfying so far.

The amount of fishes they have there at least it looks like a ocean and something to look for. FISHES~

To get a pack of the bread to feed the fish cost RM1 only to lure the fish to take pic with you.
If I am not mistaken I still think that the coral at Pulau Payar is much nicer than this 1.
Not many types of fish you can see in here just a few types but in large quantity.
Nearby the rock there is 1 quite giant fish floating in there. Was told that quite tua pui and heavy. Most of the ppl swim to this area trying to see this fish and the eel about 3-4 meter long. Could not spot it. Some where in the ocean I guess.
Ahhhhh….this is the type of fish whereby you can see every day, when you eat Nasi Lemak.
Trying to take as many pic as we can.
This pic was taken on another island during afternoon snorkelling session, one of the guy dive into the bottom of the sea to bring us this. If did not handle with care, your hand will be cut easily as the shell is quite sharp and inside it lots of small thorns.
In this island there is not much thing to see as lots of dead corals. So ask the helper to take some pic for us and he was like…aiyaaaaa you guys again ah! come la.. I help you take~
Greetings from earth, we come to the sea in peace!
On the way back, friendly and funny guys~

In the evening I had nothing to do so decided to drop by here, the ‘Khoo Kongsi‘ area to take some pictures before their big event. Cultural performance whereby it is a yearly event organise by them. To avoid the crowd I went 1 day earlier.

Official Penang Bull Mascot to be ready for the ‘bullish’ year ahead.
For the preparing of praying ceremony
Do not know until today.
I was on the way walking back then got attracted to this stall because of the banner cover all over the stall. Like hardcore promoting their food with alot of newspaper cutting and in alot of media before. So decided to give it a try.

The ‘tau keh soh‘ is very friendly by serving very fast as there are lot of customer waiting.

This uncle thought that I am a reporter for food, lol…Did not know I look like 1..he keep asking me to take picture of him in the stall, so decided to take for him. He was so happy like strike 4-d.

Even inside the kopitiam wall also got the news of the food.
This is what the food is famous for, because of Eel Fish Ball Soup. The fish ball is made of eel meat. They have 2 version of it, as I know how to read English only, so this is the section for you guys to read.
Well, actually there is nothing special about the noodle, but I must say that the ‘Eel Fish ball’ is so soft like a very fresh steam fish meat. Mix with the soy sauce, gives you the perfect taste. The noodle soup is like water. Tasteless. Mine is consider added Eel Fish Ball so it cost me RM3.50
