07/01/2013 9 Comments

Ever read before the bedtime story 3 Little Pig? Now they have come to life in reality. Its not the typical 3 piggies that build their house then got blown away. This is other way round. Building more modern style with steel and glass windows, and both ended up in the kitchen being cook~ 3 Little Pigs & The Big Bad Wolf

This modern 3 little pig located outside facing main road or next to Jaya Grocer in Bangsar Village. Welcoming you at the door step is this little 2 wooden door that you have to hop in and will be warmly greeted by the friendly staff at front desk.

Operating bout a month that is pretty new to the area, attracted many people to dine in here and already have mix reviews that I read over the blog. I was highly recommended by a friend that MUST NOT miss this fantastic restaurant that serve great porkie food. I guess this is a good sign for many pork lovers like us.

A very cosy outlet that definitely will let you sunk at your chair.

Wine lover, there is a great selection of wine for you to chose from . .

whereby you can sit here and chill along by ordering some snacks.

Huge group like us, of course we would want some privacy and they do have a room that can fit at least 10 of you.

Porkie stuff usually will go well with beer or wine. how can i miss that . . heheh

The menu offering and names are very interesting. That’s why I said both of the piglets and wolf ended up in kitchen.

Wild Mushrooms Soup @ RM15 is one of the hot soup that you must order. Blended with few types of mushroom to make every sip of it aromatic and nice do drink yet can bite some chunks of it. Recommended~

Sweet Carrot Bacon Soup is rather thick in texture and [email protected] RM15

I love this Garlic Caramelized Roast Pork. One of the starter that I enjoy alot. I keep picking slices by slices till it finish. Well quoated in dark soya sauce and not too salty, just nice to pair with my beer too. . @ RM15

Garlic Mushrooms @ RM 15 is slightly pricey and if you get to chose of course will opt for the Garlic Caramelized Roast Pork.

This is no ordinary chicken drum stick or satay. This is actually a Pork Drumsticks @ RM 13

Pork Kebabs are filled with well balance of lean meat and fats. Just nice to tease your taste bud. @ RM22

Cold cuts platter @ RM59, which has parma, serrano, salami, chorizo and olives.

Something healthy yet sinful, here is one of the order to hunt for dressing is perfect and bacon are well prepare.. Crispy Bacon & Asparagus Salad @ RM23

Grilled Pork Salad @ RM22

I usually do not prefer tomato base sauce spaghetti that make it a classic sauce that is aromatic and mince meat that comes to my liking. Piggy Bolognaise @ RM19

It is not alien that invade earth and this cheeky dish is called Alien Invasion @ RM26 was a plate of squiggly long-legged spaghetti threaded through slices of sausages and tossed with button mushrooms in a creamy sauce. I love the texture of spaghetti which is slightly thicker than the ordinary type. Cook to al-dante and just perfect. Something that I like. Some find it a bit creamy and its advise to share. – Recommended~

Why I said Wolf and pig are in kitchen, as this is one of the reason. Wolf’s Favourite that have a poached egg on the top and with slices and chunks of smoked pork bacon, along with crispy bacon [email protected] RM27. A plate that had gone within seconds. another recommended~

Glazed BBQ Pork Ribs @ RM59 served with fries and garden salad was slathered with homemade BBQ Sauce.

Piggies Rolling in Mud @ RM25 , it turned out to be crumbed pork cutlets served with rice and a mild Japanese curry, if you love Japanese curry then this is another dish not to be miss. Mild texture of curry that pour onto the meat and rice.

Mighty Piggy Burger @ RM24 A medium size pork patty, cheese, fried egg, herbed mayo sauce served with fries and house salad. Not bad as the patty are season with some light spices too. If the yolk are half cook then it would have been perfect.

This is the most unique dish on the table that Roast Porky Fried Rice might look ordinary. Its a fried rice that burst with flavours. Cook to perfection with wok hei and japanese rice that makes every mouthfull delicious with mild spicy after taste, filled with perfect size of roast pork. @ RM19

Deep-fried Mars Bar @ RM15 one of the selection on desert menu that tempt us to order.

Coffee in here are pretty decent that stood above average or a better ones compare to many other outlets. A great way to end the meal with.

Find that 3 Little pig and Big Bad Wolf definately stood above my expectations and if you are asking me would I come back again, surely yes. Already miss a few items in there.

Traditional Malay cuisine at Songket Restaurant @ Jalan Yap Kwan Seng

22/07/2011 No Comments

Usually to hunt for nice food, their location is always hidden some where which usually do not appear in google map. Another restaurant that turn out to be a hit among office worker in the area is this new Songket Restaurant which just started operation few months back. They are situated in a busy road of Jalan Yap Kwan Seng that is directly located behind Tony Romas.

One good thing about this restaurant is that they have alot of free parking around the area and once park its just few steps away.

By the term Songket is a fabric that belongs to the brocade family of textiles of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei. It is hand-woven in silk or cotton, and intricately patterned with gold or silver threads. The metallic threads stand out against the background cloth to create a shimmering effect. In the weaving process the metallic threads are inserted in between the silk or cotton weft (latitudinal) threads. (source from wikipedia)

As this restaurant aim to assemble all the best traditional Malay food in most of the states available to be served under one roof.

The whole area is well design with malay modern style dining. . .

with a guy dress in traditional Malay outfit to greet and bring us to our table. .

They have a private room to cater for all of us who want to do celebration or get together with friends.

Songket is certainly a pork free restaurant as they serve alcohol too.

huge and spacious dining that is indoor and outdoor. . .

Besides offering traditional food, the restaurant also offer us a traditional cultural performances that feature all races around Malaysia, from Chinese, Malay, Indian, Kadazan and a few more, that is certainly will be a good place for locals and tourist to dine in and enjoy . .

Best even to backpackers looking for budget place to stay or travelers looking for a budget stay over the weekend for a place that offers Japanese Theme accommodation.

Besides that, for party animal, this place is just 5 minutes walk to a large Hawker center called Red Garden and 10 minutes walk to Penang most happening place which is Upper Penang road that filled with Bar and Clubs, also 10 minutes walk to famous Nasi Kandar Line Clear.

At the main entrance welcomes you the modern style of baba n Nyonya concept as what I feel . .

and I love the interior which is very simple and nice place to hang out, as the counter sited right in front is their check-in counter for your rooms.

You are able to rent towels and other basic necessities you need.

They have a mini bar to cater for their inhouse guest and at the moment which is not fully operational yet . .

Dining place for your breakfast, lunch and dinner n also they have high speed wifi for you to use. Just incase you would want to connect to your love ones or keep in touch with your friends.

They have 2 types of rooms available which is Suites Room that offer at the rate of RM 68 and I didnt manage to view this room as it was fully occupied but you can view it at their website (click here)

Very nice walkway with a bit of garden concept and white lamps placed right in front of their rooms.

Then other facilities for other rooms do not have toilet build in it and its a shared toilet available at the back of the hostel. Washing area. . .

and 6 toilets available

Let’s head up to their dorm room and you evolve from as you climb up the stairs. . .

Before you head to their dorm you are required to put all your shoes in this shelves which is available upper section called The Loft,

6 Bed Dorm

The Sunrise, 6 Bed Dorm

The Classic, 4 Bed Dorm

The rooms do not have tv and they include this super comfy area filled with bean bags too is this little entertainment area. . .

They also have Reading Corner to do some leisure reading or while waiting for your friend to get ready you can browse thru some magazine.

This are the rates on all the item including the room rates for you to check out and cannot deny that this is surely one of a good cheap accomodation to be highly recommended to travelers around the world if you do visit Penang also for its attractive location located UNESCO heritage zone and surrounding food they can go after. .

Gyuniku Beef Noodle House @ Desa Sri Hartamas

14/01/2010 No Comments

Gyuniku Beef Noodle House is a hidden gem in Desa Sri Hartamas that I actually did not know that located directly behind of the famous Soul Out actually hidden another small shop which I find that their food is actually quite good. If not because of my siau gang from Penang bring me here, I sure would not discover another new shop in the area. .

A very classic shop of noodle stall or I would say modern style if you are comparing with food court or the road side stall. Cosy area and friendly staff had just make our day a perfect start and the owner also speak hokkien. 🙂

I was there for second round so I was more like a taster rather than a diner. They order ‘Beef Ball’ which I find the taste rather strong in taste which I prefer it to be, a bit spicy yet sour and the authentic beef taste is detected. RM 7

‘Beef Rice’ as the look of it already makes me want to eat it even though I am full from the first round. Soft beef slices add on with the mild gravy that makes the rice flood with gravy is just tempting as it is. RM 10

If you are a person who loves spare parts, ‘Brisket Rice’ is recommended by me. The black peper sauce which is just right to cover the taste of the brisket yet its chewy and a bit soft that doesn’t makes it too hard or over cook ( at certain places) is just perfect. RM 11

Not a big fan of ‘Fish Ball’ therefore I find it rather normal.

I am sure that I would return here for second round to actually sit down and enjoy my simple dish of beef rice.

Food Rating 7/10, Not bad ah~-Stamped-
