Chef Lim Organic Kitchen @ Scotts Garden, Old Klang Road

22/05/2012 No Comments

How many of you will turn down a review or when a friend ask you to eat vegetarian or organic food? For me, I its a new discovery, cuz often on the month of Nine Emperor festival its very hard for me to locate nice organic or vegetarian place in KL as not as widely celebrated compare to Penang whereby alot of vegetarian stalls are set up every where. Chef Lim Organic Kitchen.

[Update Jan 2014: close Down]

Nevertheless, I had the opportunity to visit Chef Lim Organic Kicthen, and how to turn down? I am a food lover in many ways as I always enjoy my meal and learn to eat and dine accordingly. As fore say by many people, organic and vegetarian food will head towards very mild or near tasteless food as one of the reason its healthy food. Never meant to be alot of taste, eat light and simple.

Chef Llim Organic Kitchen open its door to public since last year September 2011 at The Scots Garden, Old Klang Road and it had starting to gain popularity among organic lover and slowly public are accepting the taste of it after learning the way to eat it and the benefits of eating healthy.

A place that well lit up with some English interior to be spill upon.

Many people have the perception that organic food would be expensive including myself too. When I see the price of the menu and what is being offered I find it very reasonable.

One of the reason that Chef Lim Organic Kitchen gaining its popularity among many vegetarian and monks are the fundamentals, freshness and healthiness are assured, long serving PURE vegetarian food where no egg and “five pungent spices” eg: garlic, onion, chives, spring onion and leek is used in food preparing.

Fruit Tea (Large) @ RM17.90 with a few types of fresh fruit being cut and blend then serve warm is something new to me. As mention by the chef is good for digestion and alot of customer prefer it hot. They do serve cold too . . Love the taste of it~

Brown rice @ RM2.00 per bowl that I often take during my meals on vegetarian. Surely it taste very bland and not aromatic as those white rice often eat at home.

Cukawamee @ RM6.90, one of the reason its green colour that many people ask and thought its colouring but its not. Its the effect of being soaked in sugar syrup and the duration makes it green.

Golden Beancurd – Large @ RM18.90 – beancurd that mixed with pumpkin, and ridge gourd

something unique in the soup that add on some extra flavour is this dish . .Coconut Tomyam @ RM17.90

Herbal Mushroom Soup – Large @ RM18.90

One of my favourite is this Basil Leaf Mushroom – Large @ RM18.90 that had been stir fried till the flavours blend in pretty well . .

Another of my favorited is Kapitan Fish – Small @ RM14.90 that is well cook with the gravy is just perfect, not too spicy yet hint of sour at the end of the taste, clever to use eggplant, ladies finger and some other vegetable to make this curry mixture out.

Yam Basket @ RM18.90

Lo Han Chai @ Large @ RM19.90

Kam Heong Mushroom – Large @ RM18.90 as mushroom had been carefully slices and deep fried first then follow by pan friend with kam heong till all the aroma blend well. Some of you might not like the taste yet the crispiness is there.

Very seldom you will see organic food preparing Italian food because of the ingredient involve yet this caught us by surprise that their Classic Cabonara @ RM14.90 turns out to be good too, with a bit milky creamy texture, spaghetti is springy.

This would be one of my highly recommended dish for organic or vegetarian as Fruit Pizza @ RM19.90 being baked to perfection with its slight thin crust of every bite with crips, dressing on top just match the taste of the fruits being finely cut and added on. One of their top seller.

Hawaiian Pizza @ RM21.90 topped with capsicum, tomato and pineapple.

One of the reason their pizza turns out to be top seller as the cheeze being carefulyl source and imported from Australia and it turns out to be cheezy awesome!

Craving for meat then Grill Beef Steak might be one of your selection as again, being well deep fried and special ingredient from the chef to make the texture taste good! @ RM22.90

You will be surprise on the taste that how the chef did this desert without egg and milk. Mango pudding @ RM5.90

This is what happens when there are 2 groups of people, as all being the guys are being busy by capturing all those nice food and as for the girls are all on a table to discuss on recent issue. . :p

If you are ask me where to get nice organic food, this restaurant certainly now being added into one of my recommended list.

For the dishes that had been cook out, I am totally impress by the chef little experience and most definately is because he is super young to be able to cook this kind of organic meal out!

Remark: please do note that this place is not suitable for people who have strong taste bud as you will find this place near tasteless, for vegetarian and organic lover, this place would be a recommended restaurant!

*quite surprise that they are HALAL outlet!

Cheap Japanese Meal at Nihon Kai @ Old Klang Road, KL

23/11/2011 12 Comments

I might have been selfish in sharing food places at times or another way to say it, I have forgotten to blog about it till I look thru my old folder. If you are craving for Japanese food yet you are a bit tight in pocket? well, there is this place I went so often with my ex-colleague and friends, is this Nihon Kai, Japanese Restaurant located at Old Klang Road which is a hidden gem in the area.

For this post, you might think I am being lazy, reason is I have lost this receipt and its a combine pictures of many occasions I went there.

The shop is very hidden but yet they enjoy brisk business for lunch and dinner. One of the reason they are always full is their generous portion of serving at economic price.

There are 2 levels in the shop that mostly cater for 2 – 4 pax and if you have bigger group you will be seated upstairs. .

So during my last week in my ex company, they did a farewell for me in this restaurant again, we book the whole tatami section . . .

You can just see what’s their price range. We find it cheap and nice. .

Itako

Sashimi Platter @ RM 53

This is the set lunch/ dinner that we usually order that they do have about 12 sets to choose from. This is Unagi Set

Grill Fish Head

Seafood set

Torikatsunabe + Sashimi @ RM 20 – Chicken cullet with scramble egg and raw fish, even in the set, you can see how thick they cut the sashimi for you, some even about as thick as 1 n half inch!

California Roll

Here we go, these people are my best colleague that I have been working for the past 2 years, cheerful and helpful . . Thanks to many of them in the company for making the work flow so smooth . .

Set Price start from RM 16 and ala-carte starts from RM 4 . .

Alright, this is a highly recommended Japanese restaurant by me if you are referring to the price and quality. Do not over expect it~

Ah Wang Bak Kut Teh @ Old Klang Road

21/02/2011 9 Comments

Do tell me who is not a fan of Bak Kut Teh? I am a big fan of Bak Kut Teh, just that whenever people mention this, where is the best, first location always pop out in people’s mind is Klang Lahhhhh, but Klang you want to hunt for good 1, always have to be in early morning. . .what bout if you crave for Bak Kut teh then its at night? One of the places that also with the word Klang, is Old Klang Road, and when you mention Bak Kut Teh, alot people first’s response is ‘Under the bridge 1 ah’? Old Klang Road Bak Kut Teh, under the bridge. Ah Wang Bak Kut Teh

Well, what can I say, Murphy and his cousin bring me to this famous Ah Wang Bak Kut Teh shop at Old Klang Road where most of the time its always filled with lots of people especially during dinner. Here is not only famous for Bak Kut Teh as they are very well known for their signature Steam Fish . . . . .

For side dishes, its always ‘Tu Ka Chor’ (Pigs Trotter Vinegar) is one of the additional that I would order. For this stall, its highly recommended by me as I don always like the texture of it, as for this stall, it was nicely steamed till it was very soft and one bite of the fats into the mouth it nearly melts on tongue, with its thick aromatci sauce cook with a bit of herbs and their very own style is one of the bowl that I finish it by myself. The thick sauce goes very well with rice!

This stall Bak Kut Teh served very mild taste of herbs that most of the people in KL would prefer and add on with some spare parts.

Vegetable is good too .. .

This is what people meant that Bak Kut Ten Under the bridge which is located directly below. . . This direction is from Old Klang Road heading to Mid Valley as the stall would be on your left.

This stall nothing to boast about just that they had made their name and very famous among all the neighbourhood and if you do come here, their Tu Kar Chor is not to be missed! Will try on the steam fish next round .. . .

Best Cao Cao Lamb BBQ @ Kuchai Lama

15/10/2010 No Comments

I did read a few people blog about this place before and I have forgotten on it until my friend brought me there to eat. This mini hawker that makes its mark on its own with the neighborhood is located at the edge of Cao Cao Lamb BBQ Kuchai Lama and Old Klang road that operates from 7pm to finish.

Many stalls to go after as most of them have their own business.

If you are in this hawker center, one of the food that you MUST NOT miss which is the Cao Cao BBQ Lamb. A Family business that operates along with grandmother and son taking care of the business and you can expect to wait long enough of you go during dinner time.

Most people say them are quite lansi but what I get to know from other people saying that they just do for pass time and for fun.

Few slabs of lamb being placed on the hot charcoal bbq pit, grilling it slowly after long marination process.

Every time I go there, I would just eat 2 pieces myself as 1 piece cost RM9, it can be a bit pricy but the quality and taste is there. Grilled to perfection with bbq lining is visible on the meat, its soft and juicy, very aromatic of the lamb and marination taste. Recommended!

I also order Prawn Mee as the soup base colour do looks good. RM5

In KL not many places you can find not bad Prawn Mee with the taste of the soup have strong flavour of prawn shells. Soup base which is quite simliar to Penang, add on chili and its a bit spicy that comes to my liking. No complain on this.

When I walked pass Fried Koey Teow, the smell of it definately makes me want to order! RM5

Then came out of the look not bad, but the taste is abit dry and tasteless. We add in soy sauce to bring up a bit taste of it.

Roasted Chicken Wings, is very common nothing to brag about.

Overall, what I feel is the lamb and prawn mee is good to order, and the rest definately will be back to try more. I also have been told by my friend next to this mini hawker center, the Cantonese Stall offers variety of fried stuff and its pretty good. I’ll definately be back~

Location:
nearby Junction of Jalan Kuchai Lama and Old Klang Road.

Ah Mal Birthday lunch at Ishin Japanese Dining @ Old Klang Road

21/06/2010 No Comments

Time really flies, and never thought its mid of June already and reminds us about Jonathan’s Birthday. When he remind us about his birthday, it feels like just celebrated with him few months ago and actually not it was a year ago. Ishin Japanese Dining.

We delay one day to celebrate with him to make it lunch on Friday, and places that ended up voting by most of them is to ala carte menu of Japanese food at Old Klang Road, anyway, who could resist japanese food?

This restaurant is located at the side of Old Klang Road, if you did not notice it, it would be just a plain bungalow as it is conversion of bungalow to restaurant.

Once you walk into the restaurant, we were greeted by attentive staff and seat us to our table. The restaurant consist of two level that decorated with contemporary Japanese dining placed along dark chocolate wooden table and chairs.

If you feel you would like to stare at the chef cutting and preparing sushi, then you can be seated at the Sushi Bar.

Modern Tatami style dining is available on second floor and if you are a smoker, you can choose to be seated outside on the balcony.

Once we were seated, we were given one appetizer.

Ah Tee Authentic Pan Mee @ Jalan Klang Lama

14/05/2010 15 Comments

In KL, there are a lot of famous pan mee, most of the stalls they do have variety of flavours to choose from and I still like the authentic ones not until recently Ken introduce us a very kick authentic pan mee located at Old Klang Road. Ah Tee Authentic Pan Mee The stall is park under a very small hawker center which has no name but painted green in colour.

The recipe came from his grandfather that had been selling pan mee for the past 30 years and had pass down to the dad, mother in laws and now the son, had taken over to operate it for pass time, and need not to support their kids anymore.

This is how the stalls looks like by the road side.

Besides selling Pan Mee, he also sell ‘Home Made Or Kuih’ and ‘Popiah’.

The ingredient that going to add into pan mee, just so tempting that I just cant wait to have a bowl by myself.

The owner with the name Ah Tee is preparing our hot bowl of pan mee, I just feel that his hand is made of metal, that such a big flame and his hand is able to just right above it in adding in the ingredient.

While waiting our pan mee, Ken order ‘Or Kuih’ which is very soft and filled with yam and dip with the chili sauce is yummy~ and the ‘Popiah’ I have tasted better ones before.

One of the secret of this stall which is homemade ‘Sambal’ as there are 2 types of it; one which is not very spicy to dip along, but what we find it interesting is the one behind is recommended to all of you who loves very spicy which is the ‘flaming hot sambal’. Eat it with care, that might choke you easily because of the spiciness and once you got choke, you will be very high! Tears all over and 3 glass of water would not help you to ease it.

This is our ‘Pan Mee’ and add extra anchovies for extra umph! The noodle can be ordered according to the size you one, but the authentic way is to eat by hand peeling from the flour.

I just love the taste of it, as it is very flavorful and strong anchovies taste as one of the secret that I found out was, he took the fried anchovies to blend it till ashes and while cooking till the end, he added it in and stir to dilute the ash anchovies to blend into the soup, then add in the marinated pork slices.

Next step, you can either eat or dip along with the flaming hot sambal or add the sambal into the soup to make you sweat all over and tears flowing out.

As the stall operates by himself, he sell ‘Tong Sui’ only or you can order some drink by the coffee shop next to it.

‘Fu Chuk yi Mai’

‘Lo Han Guo (mata kucing)’

Cannot deny that, this is one of the best Authentic Pan Mee that I have eaten so far, and we have went back a few rounds continuously after that, as it was rainy season and eating a bowl of hot aromatic pan mee is hard to resist as RM 5 for a big bowl is very cheap.
