Zheng Jia Restaurant (Bak Kut Teh) @ Puchong

No Comments
Recently had rained alot, and my friends suggested us to go get something warm and nice. One of them is a big fan of pork lover and whenever he travels back to Malaysia, the first thing that came into his mind is…woiii, I need pork man.. I just need it. Then we headed to this makan this Zheng Jia Restaurant at Puchong is one of their favourite shop.

Bak Kut Teh (2)

This is one of the Bak Kut Teh shop that serve with ‘Yam Rice’ which is perfect to eat along with bak kut teh. The yam rice is not too dry in rice yet a few chunks of yam pieces in the rice. Quite flavourful with small dry shrimps.

Bak Kut Teh

The normal vegetable, nothing to shout about.

Bak Kut Teh (4)

I love my big pot of ‘Bak Kut Teh’ filled with all the pig spare parts, with intestine, liver, tail, pork piece, button mushroom and otheres. It looks like clear soup with light colour but it was cook well and taste good.

Bak Kut Teh (3)

Another thing which we would not miss is the ‘Dry Bak Kut Teh’ which they order purely on Roast Pork. It was cook in the claypot till the meat was soft and the dry taste had soak onto the meat and I just cant stop eating this.

Food of course meant to be enjoy but the catch is, I drink alot of water after an hour later. The sign of alot MSG added in.

The Wok Cafe @ The Strand Damansara

No Comments
Just found these pictures back and nearly forgot about it. Wok café seems to be quite famous and been visited by a lot of bloggers, that created my curiosity on their food quality, as it has been given thumbs up. The shop is also famous with mostly Penang Hawker variety which recommended by most of the blogger.

Then so coincidently my friend from pg came down and known the chef of the café as she told me that they are good friend. Of course gladly I am taking them there which is not too hard to locate.



The shop is decorated in a very classic Nyonya style filled with wooden chair and marble tables which I rate it as a kopitiam style.

So our pesta makan starts.
‘Hokkien Char’ Filled with wok hei, yet pour in the sambal given just add in the extra taste. RM8

‘Char Koey Teow’ Me and my friend enjoying as it was fried to perfection, yet filled with si ham, and prawns. I would prefer if it was a bit more spicy. RM8
‘Otak Otak’ It is soft, with a big piece of fish chunk in the middle but I have eaten a better one. RM4
‘Ju Hu Char’ Was a complimentary by the chef to my friend, which we always take it and wrap with the veggie an eat. A bit sweet in taste but I prefer my grandma’s style which is abit salty.
‘Roast Pork with Garlic’ We enjoy this dish, which is quite a bit sweet and salty, yet the fats of the roast pork are just what we prefer. RM16
The ‘Lorbak Set’ ss one of their signature, is quite big in a roll, fried till crispy on the outer layer filled with meat but I prefer other stalls. RM8

‘Kerabu Mango’ Sweet and sour create sensation on our tongue which is one that I would recommend. RM8
‘Sotong KangKung’ It is quite watery after got served, which they did not dry out the kangkung enough, the shrimp paste have to be added in with some of the chili added to bring in the kick. If the shrimp paste is a bit thicker it would be even nicer. RM10

‘Sago gula Melaka’ RM 3.50 Find it too sweet with the floating layer of santan and thick layer of gula Melaka.
‘Mango Cendul’ Unique in the name which I have not tried before, but just not my taste which the mango doesn’t go along with cendul and gula Melaka. RM3.50
I would say that the service was prompt as the dad were seated next to us which is the cashier, and the dad got quite surprise that 3 person of us eating so much, which is me and another 2 girl.

As overall, I don think I know how to enjoy eating Nyonya food but I would surely return for the Penang Hawker food.

Remarks: please go there early to avoid disappointment which is the signature like Hokkien Mee and Curry mee already finish. Be there b4 8.30

Duck Rice, Restaurant Sun Ming @ Taman Connaught,Cheras

No Comments
Within a week, the K&K and her gang introduce me to eat Duck rice again. As what they said it is much nicer that then 1 in Taman Desa. Then wokayyy..just go lah, with lots of people following then reach that area. It is at Cheras nearby UCSI college there as I recognize the place. It was lucky that the parking space was just nice for the 3 of the cars.

It was early when we reach the shop, was like around 12pm and already half full. The people ta pau’ing, the queue is building up.

We manage to get a big table and guess what. Within 15 minutes after we were seated, the ppl just flock into the kopitiam and turn it into like pasar with suddenly so many ppl and so noisy.

If you feel that, duck is not enough for you, the side order area looks tempting. With the don know what and what as I know how to point and eat.

The duck was gone fast.

The person is working hard by chopping and chopping non stop, busy working during lunch time. Wonder if he can use his hand to chop a person to make he/she faint instantly.

Ahhhh….here is my favourite. Never eat duck rice without this ‘Chai Boey ’ I know how to call it in Hokkien only. Sorry haa..cantonese a bit poor. The taste is veli good ah..the soup is sour to the taste, abit spicy with the dry chili, the sour veggie is cook to perfection. Ngam ngam soft. A good soup to start off with, open up appetite.
Here comes the ‘Char Siew’. By looking at it I was like mouth watering. When got serve onto the table, I was the first 1 to tax the char siew. The meat is soft, with the fats thin layer and layer makes it so good but don really like the char siew sauce.
The ‘Roast Pork’ is very nice also. The curst is crispy, the pork is soft and bite already feel juicy abit. Not so dry. Again, the layer of fats is just good.

Lastly of course the main dish had arrive. The ‘Duck’. I must say that the duck meat here taste much better than the 1 in Taman Desa. The meat is tender and soft yet you can bite the roast taste out of it. The duck aroma is there, the skin is good till I was like walaping it non stop.

Over all the food here is totally good. As I get to dine for free again, was treated by one friend and the total bill came around RM145 as I know and was share by around 9 people. All the food is serve 2 each. I feel that the price is reasonable. . Highly Recommended

Chopstick Noodle House @ Mid Valley

No Comments
Recently my friend had fall in love with Kim Garry, whenever they go to Mid Vally, they would go there and dine. It is like their main place to dine, I dine with them till have phobia of Kim Garry. Once listen to the name I feel like vomiting.
To my surprise they, decided to change place to this Chopstik Noodle House. I asked them why here cuz the food here not really good as the one I used to go was in Bukit Bintang above Planet Hollywood back in those days, as for now I think already ‘gulung tikar‘. They mention that here more cosy cuz there were too pack with ppl on that day.
So here I am with the rest in this restaurant that I always walked pass with never had the intention to go in cuz as I walk pass no matter how many times, the restaurant also have so little ppl in there only even on weekend.
This is what most of my friend ordered ‘Cincau with White Coffee‘. Look impressive but the taste not enough. Never had a strong aroma of coffee taste and the cincau is just cincau. Taste smooth but not really sweet. Missing something in there. RM4.90
Next which is ‘Honey BBQ Pork Rice’. The taste of the sauce is so geli which is too sweet like taking syrup and most of the roast pork edge were burn and look very black. The pork is just not as good as what I have tried so far. The taste of honey so far tasteless. RM10.90
This is one of the far worst ‘Prawn Wantan Noodle’ I have ever taste. The soup is tasteless to the point that you just boil a clear water and pour it in, add some salt and paper on top. The wantan was not really impressive though, with the filling inside just would not fit into my mouth. RM 11.90

Lastly, another of my friend order ‘Dewy Honey’. Look impressive but the taste, okay la. Is not good as expected. They blend the honey dew and pour from the top, and the bottom of the base is too sweet like eating sugar syrup. The Nata de coco is countable so do the Honey dew biji. One word ‘Hopeless’. RM5.50 for this.
All the price above must add in additional 5% g.tax and 10%s.charge. The service is prompt because we were the only table outside and indoor there is another table.
Now only I realise that why this restaurant have not many customer is because of the food quality. Sure would not go back and dine again for the price they are paying. I would rather go back to their ‘lou tei fong‘ Kim Garry.

Kopitiam Kuan Yew @ SS3

No Comments

Came to this place to dine because the owner of the Kopitiam is my friend’s friend. So she came here to pay a visit. There are 2 coffee shop at this junction. 1 corner each.

While I was waiting for my food to arrive then I spotted this stall which is called ‘RoyalRojak‘ which quite alot of people buying from them. It is prepare by 2 kids. So I decided to give it a go. Surprisingly it did not disappoint me. The colour looks good and ready to be hantam. The ingredient in there was very very generous or either they boy did wrong for me, as the cuttlefish in there is alot. I mean there were like about 8slices and not the mini 1..it is a big 1 and I paid only RM4.80 for this which gave me a shock. I rate this as poison. Once start it never want to stop. We did ta pau back another packed to let the rest of them try. Highly Recommended
Food rating 10/10 , Veli Veli Good~

The next order came by was the ‘Chicken Rice with Roast Pork’ added. The taste of it is not bad but would not be my choice if I were to order there. RM 4.80 also.

Food rating 5/10 , Okay Nia~

This was recommend by the shop owner ‘Jar Jiang Mien’ which he rated very spicy till mouth blow fire and by listening to him I just ordered. The first taste in my mouth after putting in the chili I was like har..spicy? Not even a taste of spicy. Only realise that the shop owner cannot even take some spicy’ness. I was like haih..The taste of it so so only la. If it is spicy a bit more would taste good. RM4.80 for this also.

Food rating 5/10 , Okay Nia~

‘Pan Mee‘ is another friend’s order. It is nicer compare to the other 2. The soup was well boiled with some ingredient and the taste of it is nice till 2 of us keep picking on this food. RM4.50 for this.

Food rating 6.5/10 , Okay ah..Not Bad~

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-
