I have been working nearby for quite a while and everytime I drove pass by here, its always pretty crowded at this Rojak Stall that you will hardly miss with 2 vans parked side by side with one selling Cendol and another oen selling Rojak. As far as I know this stall had been here for donkey years already and attracted many loyal customers around the area.

The term rojak is pretty different when it comes to states as in my hometown we called it Pasembur and Rojak is those with prawn paste and fruits.

rojak (1)

They do not have a proper seating or tables as there are only a few plastic chairs available and sitting next to their van as the table to eat or when it get pack you can see many people standing around eating or even there are customers taking it to their car and eat.

Here is pretty well know for 2 types of rojak which is the classic and another version is Rojak Mee means with yellow noodle in it.

rojak (6)

Here is Rojak Mee @ RM 3.50 if I am not mistaken.

rojak (7)

Serve along with ingredients such as floury cake, sliced cucumber, hard boiled egg, fried tofu, bean sprout and fried crackers. I prefer mine without the noodle as I find the noodle spoil the taste of the gravy. This stall still not the best as the peanut sauce here is quite sweet for me, I prefer another stall which is in Seapark nearby Maybank.

Besides the food, you can try out another type of Cendol which is slightly gives you different flavour compare to those in Penang or Melaka. For a bowl of Rm1.20 you really cannot expect alot. Again its just too sweet for me. Not my type of cendol.  Shaved ice is still pretty rough and the red bean they use is quite moist and soft. Well, I just finish 3 sip then I am done . .

Some of you might find this stall is pretty good. Really depends on your own taste.

Fancy for Satay? Just got to know that there is another branch of famous Kajang sate in Damansara Uptown, that according to my friend, this outlet or brand is one of their favourite, so this round they tag me along too. In Google, you type it out only I realise they actually have alot of branches every where. Guess this is another franchise chain or family own business? Sate Kajang HJ Samuri.

KJ (1)

KJ (2)

Nevertheless, it is always 80% full in this outlet and the amount of customer make the take away is amazing like 100 sticks, 200 sticks to ta pau away.

KJ (3)

This is how busy their sate grill er place will be that been preparing and cooking non stop.

KJ (4)

According to my friend, what makes them keep returning back is their secret chili ingredient which is quite spicy if you add more and just add the perfect kick in it. Peanut sauce is grind till ashes and add some peanut pieces still able to chew.

KJ (5)

Besides satay they also sell other ‘Goreng food’

KJ (6)

This is the pricing of Satay that usually a person would eat at least RM10 per pax averagely as 10 sticks of satay as your main meal would be just enough.

KJ (7)

Chicken would be the perfect order as grill and marinated to perfect as the meat is soft and nice. . .

KJ (8)

Then order extra with Kambing (Mutton), Daging (beef) and Perut (stomach) – I prefer the beef more tender and taste is pretty good!

KJ (9)

This is the stomach if not mistaken.

Overall, the taste is pretty good and they certainly have many returning customers like my friends, at times can dine 2-3 days in a row .. *faint

A famous sate stall that worth a try as the brand inself already famous in the community.

Remember that the video on  BF a serial cheater? Then follow by another part – Did Bf Really Breakoff with her? How did a communication breakdown or mis communicate? sometimes just a simple phone call to have a quick chat would clear the air alot. . How many of you actually do that?

the girl apparently ‘caught’ her boyfriend when he was with another girl! The girl is angry but unsure, the boy is puzzled and confused…what will happen? 

There are 3 version of video that linking to what happen next. . .

1) Is that Lipstick?

2) Is he buying jewellery for another girl?

3) He’s proposing to someone else?

Click here to watch the 3 video . . .

Which of the 3 scenarios you think could have happened and any that you’ve personally experienced before in your own life?

It was recently that, I have tried something new when I was back to Penang for holiday. Then my friend insist that I must try out this, and I did came to this place 2 times the stall did not open until the third time, it was there. Well, I have try out Satay Celup in Melaka, Lok Lok in Penang Island and for the first time, I went over to the mainland Bukit Mertajam area to hunt for food then I have come across, Lok lok in Rojak Style (that filled with prawn paste – heh kor) that if famous among the neighbourhood. My friend called this Chiam-Chiam Rojak.

This is the little stall that park right at the road side, nearby opposite a school and I am surprise to see this little stall flock with many people and it was drizzling still many people stand by it to eat.

Choices available are more like fruits, young mango, mengkuang, jambu air, cucumber and a few more.

The trick is, choose your favorite stick of fruits then just stuff the whole stick into this thick filled with lots of peanut rojak sauce that separate into two section, spicy and non spicy.

This is how it looks like after dipping into the sauce and I find that spicy is challenging, that first few sticks you do not feel the spiciness, but once it kicks in, your mouth will go numb a bit, yet still I keep dipping into the spicy sauce.

As the effect of it, of course your fruits will be fully coated with the rojak sauce, of course it will drip onto the floor like bird shit, what you have to do is. . . ..

spread your leg wide and shove your head out a bit like girrafe, so that it wont drip onto your shoe or shirt.

This is how good the business is, and many people stop by to make a take away of the sauce also.

If you are looking for something new to eat, as for me, this is something new that I was shown by my friend. Price is pretty cheap.

Remark: the stall doesnt have a fixed operation hours, so it depends on your luck!

I travel to Bandung last month and alot of my friends told me that town is not only famous for factory outlet is also a food paradise. I felt that there is like Penang where Bandung Street Food is also one of a must to do. Most of their hawker on the street are very nice. Simple just dip into one of the road side hawker then get the taste of it. Our first stop for the day while we were shopping at Dago area, we try out Durian Ice Cream which cost RM3.50 for a cup with durian meat in there.

street food 1

street food 1 (1)

A few scoop of ice cream. . .

street food 1 (3)

and add on their local brand Indomilk Susu Kental Manis Cokelat and carnation on the topings.

street food 1 (2)

The ice-cream is soft and it taste like the one I had when I was a kid, not too sweet and the durian meat flavour was not strong enough as I like. . .Overall its quite a good catch for RM3.50. . . You can just find it any where along most of the streets . ..

street food 1 (5)

As we walk further up nearby Citibank there are a few Warong located next to the bank and we were already very hungry as walk n shop the whole morning. . . try out de Robi Batagor with Kuah Kering. . .

street food 1 (6)

Indo version of fried wanton and fried taufu mix along with peanut sauce and sweet sauce. Freshly fried dip with the sauce is not bad lah` ID 6500 . ..

street food 1 (7)

Usually in Indonesia, Baso is one of the food that I would not miss. I just love their chili that added into the soup.

street food 1 (8)

The ingredient steam first then added their very own style of soup.

street food 1 (9)

street food 1 (10)

This is Baso Soup with Bee Hoon and Mee added. Added with lots of their chili to make the whole bowl spicy in taste. Just that this soup sold by this guy did not meet my expecatation.

street food 1 (11)

Then head to next area while we were shopping at House of Mode, Setiabudi area. . We try out ES Campur Special that added many ingredient inside like coconut, sago jelly, cincau, lychee and some others. To me, if it is less sweet abit then it would be perfect.

street food 1 (12)

Next to House of Mode, Batagor Riri is one of the stall that highly recommended by a few blogger from Indonesia. Batagor means (Fried Taufu) which is originate from Bandung and it had been so famous till spread to many places in Bandung.

street food 1 (13)

As the lady saw me doing some photoshoot, the offer let me take pic of the taufu before fried.

street food 1 (14)

This is after freshly fried and you must eat it while it is hot. Fried Taufu and Siew Mai squeeze with lime and a bit add on with the stall special chili, is just nice, crispy on the edge and the peanut sauce is thick and nice.

street food 1 (15)

Then when we saw a Warung filled with many people which is the Mie Ayam Pangsit Special.

street food 1 (16)

street food 1 (17)

Its is filled with half bowl of soup and chili sauce with another type of local special sauce to add in the kick of it and after mix it till all the chili coated onto the mee as what others do. . .The noodle is a bit springy and for a local taste like that I would say it taste pretty good for just ID 5000.

street food 1 (18)

Next to it Den Han Klappertaart is another one of a famous brand in Bandung.

street food 1 (19)

A few flavour is available.

street food 1 (20)

street food 1 (21)

street food 1 (22)

This street snacks I had it at Setiabudi (next to House of Mode) . . .

Penang as my hometown, neither did I know that, I actually made another great discovery that thanks to Lingzie that brought us here. I have always known that Kajang Satay which is very famous to folks in KL and Selangor but I just got to know that Ah Basri Satay is actually very famous with local crowd especially during lunch hours as its nearby the industrail zone.
In the afternoon you can expect this place to be full house even though its far away from town and nearby the industrail zone but nevertheless, its a great discovery.

Ah Basri

This shop actually is a combination of what the 1Malaysia concepts truely are. Behind this shop, there are actually a few partners which is Chinese, Malay and Indian owner that had come out with this concept which I am really proud of.

Ah Basri (2)

and yes, they are actually moving to a new premises which is bigger, new concept, air condition and brought the satay to another whole new level. You can expect more variety of satay choices and what is that, is for you to find out at their new branch as when the tauke told us about it, I was already hoping to try that new flavour.

Ah Basri (3)

Their special pit area of bbq’ing their satay.

Ah Basri (4)

Turning the satay under the warm charcoal that making sure it does not burn the meat and add on with their own special oil to bring up the taste and make the look of it, yummy, delicious and cant wait to salivate.

Ah Basri (5)

You can expect quite a huge range of satay compare to the normal hawker stall on the road or kopitiam. You can expect such meat as chicken, beef, lamb, deer, ostrich, horse, rabbit, duck, turkey, squid, prawn and fish. It also offers normal, black pepper and also tom yam flavoured satay.
and the price would be :Original Chicken RM1, Tomyam Chicken RM1.20, Black Pepper Chicken RM1.20, Original Beef RM1.40, Original Lamb RM1.40, Horse RM2.00, Squid RM2.50 PrawnRM3.00 Cow Stomach RM1.50.

Ah Basri (7)

The most important of all in satay is the gravy of it, filled with nice thick peanut sauce that rich with flavour and add on some of their chili to bring up the taste of the gravy is truly aromatic to dip along with the satay.

Ah Basri (8)

Lamb & Tomyam Satay

Beef & Black Peppered Chicken Satay (borrow this pic from BBO)

Ah Basri (10)

Chicken Satay

Ah Basri (11)

Squid Satay

Ah Basri (12)

As the satay is very flavourful, and we requested to ask Sunny to be our very own embassador that he is enjoying every bite of his satay. My most prefered which is Lamb and Black Pepper Satay which had been marinated and bbq very perfectly, juicy and soft yet aromatic and besides that, do not look down on this place that the waiter and waitress here had been profesionally train and they have excelent customer service.
With them moving to their new location, I would not mind visit their new stall for the very next round and their satay stick is actually big in size.
