Been to Mid Valley very often, as I did not notice there is O’Briens Sandwich shop available here too. Friends told me that they have just started operation a few months back, as one of the reason without knowing it that I rarely walk over to Jusco wing as usually I walk around center court or the GSC wing.

To start off with our healthy diet for the day, Classic Caesar Salad is the first came by and its quite a huge bowl by being charge at RM16.00. Its rich with ingredients and you can see the amount of chicken cutlets, chicken crisp, crouton, olive, mixed leaves and shower with homemade caesar dressing is just a great way to start off the meal. Of course this is shared.

Do not  look down on the size of the sandwich and I did it before and end up could not finish the sandwich, as when eating the 3rd piece I am pretty filled up already. Its a wholemeal bread toasted filled with white lean chicken meat and brown chicken crisp on the upper deck and another layer is filled with lettuce, cheddar cheese, red onion, mixed peppers, coleslaw and tomato.

Hot Chicken Slice and Cheddar Cheese Shambo @  RM15.80

o'brian (17)

I found new love for this sandwich with its bread is super soft, simple in taste that top with just cheeze, and ham. I just finish the whole piece by myself. Along the way I got inform by my friend as he explains to me that Shambo here refers to the shamrock shaped foccacia bread. Simply because shamrock (three-leafed old white clover) symbolises Ireland, as that is how the bread shape is created.

All of us we know that when we crave for Bak Kut Teh, the first location that pop into our mind is Klang or some where in Kuala Lumpur, never did it ever cross my mind that a new township that build by SP Setia at Shah Alam which is the new upcoming area that had attracted some restaurant to be operated around the area. Fang Xiang Bak Kut Teh

Restaurant Fang Xiang Bak Kut Teh is one of the new restaurant that had been operate in the area for just less than 2 weeks yet had attracted quite a number of crowd to the place, one great thing at this restaurant is that they operate long hours from early morning till night. The place is fairly easy to be sighted as you travel along NKVE highway towards Klang and will see Tesco Setia Alam and with one of the big sign board, that would be the restaurant.

With a cartoon girl on the signage, there is a reason behind it and there are ample of parking space.

As the restaurant is still new, future expension is under consideration as currently the whole restaurant, smoking is allow.

With many parts of pork to choose from, and they sure do have one of their signature pork is one part that must order!

fang xiang (4)

This is our order, for da day . .. They served by bowl and limited soups is available as the owner had cook more than 100 times to get it right and also by trail and error, most important is the customer feedback given to them that had made her own style of bak kut teh out. The soup served here is very mild in taste, not too watery.

As some of the customer loves ‘Tau Pok’ and for this restaurant, they are giving it complimentary.

Yau Mak veggie with fried garlic.

Go Hui meat which lies in between spine bones and ribs. The meat in this part is soft with fork poking through it easily split out that is sitted by the side of the bone.

The pork belly meat (Sam Chan Bak) lives up to my expecation that cook till soft and thin layer of fats at the top of the meat.

fang xiang (9)

As I mention one of their signature dish, which is the back part of the pig as mention by the owner, she said that there are only 4 pieces of it at each pig and not many places sell this part. The best part of this is the skin fats with a thin layer at the top, as this part is easily obtain by the owner is because the dad is a butcher and always reserved the best part of pork for the restaurant. Only limited pieces are available.

This is Yvonne the owner cum chef for the restaurant. You never be so suprise that its just a young chef as usually Bak Kut Teh in our mind is cook by more mature people with their great recepi had been pass down from generation by generation. Most of the people working in the restaurant are mostly family members and most of them are very young. I did ask her why she open the restaurant, she is a big fan of Bak Kut Teh that makes  her own very first restaurant.

Price ranging from RM8-RM20 which is reasonable.

Last 2 weeks, when I was working half way and got and suddenly got an email, 50% promotions on buffett at La Gomera Restaurant, I instantly open up to see what is the craze about and it was from a website doing this promo for only 2 days. I hit on Google and check out what is the comment from other bloggers and turn out to be not bad. . Moments later, my friend called up, saying lets go and try out, and I promise them instantly and think of where can we get buffet for RM29.90 nett and lagi lagi is Spanish food.

La Gomera

I think I would say this is the first of its kind, that La Gomera a Spanish Food & Dining is offering us buffet style that in business for less than 5 months.

La Gomera (2)

We reach there pretty late around 9.30pm as it stated in the vouchure that the restaurant open till midnight and there are no session in between which is pretty good as the vouchure only valid on weekdays.

La Gomera (4)

Inside its pretty comfortable but when I see the crowd inside the restaurant a big question mark pop up in my head.. after discount on the vouchure why the restaurant is pretty empthy?
