Famous Dark/Black Soy Sauce Hainanese Chicken Rice @ Penang

No Comments

Have some of you enjoy your little long weekend over Wesak Day? I did, I had a great party and great dining while I am at Penang. I had lunch with my friend to a place which I have not been since I was a kid. Yap, this shop is quite old already as when I was a kid my grandpa used to bring me here for his favourite plate of chicken rice.

Kedai Makanan & Minuman Hock Seong Choon that located at Penang Road house this famous chicken rice that is quite extra ordinary. A place used to be so famous 20 years ago and till date still standing tall on its business with their very own regular. Offering traditional Chicken Rice in another way, that Dark/Black soy sauce is one of the  main ingredient for the chicken.

 The shop is more well know for their dark chicken instead of the white ones.

Dining in here can be another experience as this is one of a few rare coffee shop that still maintain its classic dining area with wooden cubical at the side and wooden table and plastic chairs in the  middle area, along with cheque titles that remains the heritage look of it.

A normal plate of Hainanese Chicken Rice for single person comes in a side plate of chicken, a bowl of soup and I did order extra herbal egg to go on. @ RM 4-RM 10

Oily rice are used here as they cook the rice with some chicken soup to make it more fragrant. Little ginger is detected.

AS for the special homemade dark soy sauce are added ontop of the roast chicken, to make it more fragrant, not too dry and easy to eat. The taste is little sweet salty and I would prefer my side of chicken is drumstick. Love the chicken texture at that part and my friend whom usually do not eat chicken breast and he would only eat here as the sauce did tone down the hardness and make it nice to chew.

Although the famous one are the roast chicken, I like the white chicken more as the texture of the meat is smooth and cook to perfection along with the sauce added on makes it taste much better.

Herbal egg is a little disappointed as with the term Herbal Egg, there is not much taste of herbal is detected. This herbal egg is ordered separately from the coffee shop owner.

To make the chicken taste more interesting, try to pair with their very own homemade green chili sauce dressing, light spicy with sourish end and you will enjoy all 4 taste in one plate.

This place do bring back alot memories for me and if you are looking for something little different from the rest of Hainanese Chicken Rice, then its good to try it this version here.

Famous Kopitiam – Kedai Makanan O & S Restaurant @ Taman Paramount, PJ

5 Comments

If you are looking for a kopitiam with standard nice food to eat, I would say Kedai Makanan O & S would be one of the best neigbourhood kopitiam that served alot of nice hawker food. I have been here many times with my collegue which they rate one of their favourite kopitiam and always have to reach here before the super peak lunch time 1pm which will flock by most people that work around the area. I have nearly tried the food range at this coffee shop and I only took picture once just to share on that it . .

You have to stare at the person that sitting at the table to ask them eat faster, its my turn to sit and eat those kind of atmosphere. If you want to get a place easily in this coffee shop, just come after 1.45pm where most of the office people have to go back to work.

Beef Ball Noodle apparently turns out not bad, that clear in soup base and I love mine to have a mixture of all parts in my bowl. The soup is a bit sweet with reddish taste which can be told that had been boil for quite some time. The beef meat is soft and love mine to dip with their own homemade chili sauce. Not bad for a quality like that, can give it a try .. RM 6

ons (3)

A few times I walked pass this Char Koey Teow stall that fried till very aromatic and smells so good, then decided to order, it smells nice, not in taste as its  a bit blend and texture is a bit moist which I prefer it to be a bit more dry.

ons (4)

If you are craving for Penang Laksa, this would be one of the recommended place to stop your crave from Penang. Fish meat chucks with strong blend of fish meat in the soup base is soury, and a bit spicy , add on with the ‘har kou’ would be just nice. One of my collegue favourite.

ons (5)

Next is this Chee Cheong Fun stall which have a bit similar taste of my Penang favourite style with thick shrimp paste style add on with sesame and fried onions . . Taste very nice at first, but till the end I find it a bit salty, well, my colleague they all love it . .

ons (6)

Another dish to recommend is this Yeong Tau Fu Stall that you can see many tables or at least 8/10 tables will order this. Sweet in soup base and the fried ‘sui kau’ is a must order that crispy edge and stuff with mince meat is good!

One of the crowds favourite which I did not take picture is Penang Prawn Mee or Har Mee which is one of the best that I have eaten so far in PJ or KL, with the soup is sweet with prawn shell and pai kuat taste, that you can add on extra ingredient like Penang style. starts from RM4 which is highly recommended~

If you are craving for some Penang food or hawker food, then o n s kopitiam would be one of the Kopitiam I would recommend to stop on your crave.. .  Do look out for their Penang Prawn Mee and Laksa. .

Best Fried Chicken at Kedai Makanan & Minuman Yao Yao Ping (Delicious Ice) @ Klang

No Comments

One place that we have been talking for months that Ken keep mentioning how good this place was till I tak boleh tahan and request to go but for the last round we head here, it was half way through as it was bloody jam after the Shah Alam Klang Toll. Till few weeks ago, I mention again and directly Ken agree and we drive all the way to Klang just to hunt for one particular restaurant that served Fried Chicken, Ayem Percik and Yao Yao Ping. Kedai Makanan & Minuman Yao Yao Ping

Based on the crowd and people, this place is famous to its neighbourhood and during public holiday draws crowd as far from other states, as I were here on weekend, I find that this place is more like a family gathering as it draws those family with their young children. As I understoond, kids love Friend Chicken, so am I when I was a kid escially I would just go for only Drumstick.

KfC

It was an old kopitam that located some where in Klang Valley as Ken knows the way as he is a regular customer there.

KfC (2)

One thing to start off with is that, I must order this Yao Yao Ping and Mango flavour @ RM1.50-RM2 is the best among all. Ken and Andrew directly order 2 glass each and me, since they order that, I decided to try out other flavour.

KfC (3)

Ayam Percik being grilled and served hot top on with their own special gravy.

KfC (4)

KfC (5)

KfC (6)

Besides their speciality, we get to choose an option of Ham, Hotdog, Crab – China Hamburger and popiah too.

KfC (7)

Do not expect the place to be air condition but consider the style of it, it is considered clean already.

KfC (8)

Then I start off with my China Burger – Ham that taste much better than the ones available in pasar malam, which is not that oily yet the big slice of ham is there.

KfC (9)

Then here comes their signature in the house, ‘Fried Chicken’ @ RM2-RM3.50 as I start off mine with two drumstick, then Ken and Andrew asked me seriously! “Are you sure that two is enough for you?” I said might be, then they said don siau la..where got enough. . . .

KfC (10)

This is the reason why they ask me a serious question as this is their portion. After finish my two drumstick, I ended up ordering another 4 more pieces which is two thigh and two wings. I would say, this is one of the best fried chicken that I have tasted so far with the skin is crips, hot, aroma with those kind taste that the meat in it is soft and juicy. Dip with the available normal chili sauce is good enough!

KfC (11)

This is my Yao Yao Ping as I mixed it with two flavour, ‘Red Bean and Asam Boi’ both taste good but under this hot weather and after I ate those fried stuff, Asam Boi stands out more as it is more refreshing and I love the sourness of it.

KfC (12)

Then there is one kid ordered this, all mix. I just wonder how it taste.

For this kind of environment with the food quality like that total damage for my share around RM11 with drinks and Chicken is quite good, sure I am a satisfied customer. If you ever do food hunting in Klang, just do not miss this great Friend Chicken and Yao Yao ping, just be here early before 1pm to get the Mango, as I finish and want to ta pau the Mango Flavour, its all sold out and the rest are available. Next great taste is Watermelon and Asam Boi. A Recommended place by me.

Roast Pork and Chicken Rice @ Kuchai Lama

No Comments
Was early on the Saturday morning and called Chris where was he. Told me that he is in mechanic shop and ask him wanna go out makan or not. He asked me to go find him and bring me to 1 to eat ‘Siew Yuk’ very nice 1. So he brought me to this place in the housing area dalam dalam. Never been to this area before. As Chris told me that during the weekdays it is very hard to get a seat and have to wait very long to get your turn. During weekend a bit easy.

It was only 11.50am when I reached there and to my surprise the coffee shop already full of people and the que of ta pauing is already there. At least 5-7 ppl in the que.

This is the famous roast pork that been the signature of the place. As I observed all the tables around there, all the customer at least would order 1 full plate of ‘Siew Yuk’ the same goes to all the ppl tau pau.

This is what I have for my lunch, ‘Mix'(char siew, siew yuk and chicken). Not cheap for a small portion which cost me RM7 and the pieces of it can also count by fingers. It is like 4 pieces of siew yuk, 4-5 pieces of char siew and 4 pieces of chicken. WTF!!! The char siew is okay okay onli and the chicken is noting special.

Totally cannot denied that why the business is so good. The ‘Siew Yuk’ is totally crispy on the crust itself its like eating chips, the the fragrance in the meat is just nice along with it. The fats on the siew yuk and the meat is just perfectly the right blend. Not too much fats and not too much meat. Must get a taste on it. Highly recommended

Food rating 9.5/10 , Very Good!!~ -Stamped-
