To get good Indonesian food locally in Malaysia is not easy. Found good ones yet the price is slightly high and not till recently, found out one outlet Restaurant Waroeng Oma that serve authentic Javanese Food that is pretty good, located in Sunway Mentari. We order quite a lot and did not realise that the owner is sitting just right there and she came to our table and greet us. Along that, get to know she is from Indonesia and this outlet is a compilation of recepi.

java (1)

this outlet is pretty easy to find as its facing the main road and few doors away from McD.

java (2)

Then the owner told us, if we love spicy food we should try their own homemade sambal. 3 types available and really depends your kind of preference and taste. The first one is sour mild spicy, middle one is more aromatic spice taste with spicinesss kicks in after a few bite and last one with fiery red, that doesnt look very spicy yet we are wrong, it gives the after spiciness too.

java (3)

Tried out with their Soto Ayam and turns out to be good,  that came out the soup already pass our criteria that to be yellowish that can be done in 2 version, lontong or vermicelli. Served with hard-boiled eggs, chicken slices and bean sprout, turns out to be good and quite authentic. Then I added their fiery red sambal in to make it extra kick. Remark, do not put too much as its really spicy.

java (4)

 How can I resist Bakso, with the soup is serve pippin hot chewy springy beef balls that goes along with the soup.

java (5)

 Ayam Bakar is another version of their food, that its being grill till some parts are slightly burnt as it is and to eat with this, must eat along with their fiery red sambal.

java (6)

Ayam Goreng Penyet, does comes with rice but we told her we did not want it cuz we are ordering more food to try out. Live up the expectation of look and taste hail all they way from Indonesia, well season and fried. We ended up order another 2 more portion. – Recommended!

java (7)

This Fried Fish(I have forgotten what is the exact name) is introduce by the owner too, its fresh and the meat is soft yet  its pretty huge. For those who don really take chicken meat with fish is the option, then this would be recommended!

java (8)

Nasi Uduk was highly recommended by the owner and we ordered that. True enough, it surprise us with the fragrant santan rice top with egg slices, with the little side dish that compliments well with it and best of all is the chicken been season to perfection that its very fragrant with light ginger and fried till crisp. Top of that with crunchy flakes to make it compliments better.

java (9)

Their ABC special is presented very colourful with the syrup taste very unique. 😀

As I went back early for this dining and I must say, for CHEAP authentic Indonesian food, this is the place to be. Their main range from RM6.50-RM12. Cheap right, I plan to visit this outlet soon again along with the awesome Martabak Manis(click here) not to be miss. Highly Recommended outlet~

[Remark] Its just so funny to see how I write a food blog post 3 years ago as this post was written 2009. Because of the pictures was deleted in blogspot now I have re-visited this place to make it available again. One of my favourite mee goreng – Mee Sotong place.
This is one of my favourite mee goreng stall or I would rate the best Mee Goreng in Penang, came back a few times, but did not manage to eat it, cuz it was close on Sunday and usually came back for the weekend and today, the crowd was suprisingly alot. I mean DAMM alot. I have to wait for 1 hour and 15 mins for this because it was holiday season. Wrong timing to eat.

mee sotong (5)


The pricing consider one of the very reasonable that they are offering with the portion being served. There is usually a queue when you go at, wrong timing. This is the crowd that ta pau, have not include the crowd that are dining in.Those people that ta pau were at least 4 packs and above. Celaka

mee sotong (7)

Tadaa…this is the ‘Mee Goreng Sotongthat been served. My favorite. Tambah Pedas pedas. Even though I cant really take spicy but to the hack, it taste bloody nice. The first 3 mouth I am already sweating like crazee, it is just worth the taste. Alot of sotong on top, taste a bit sweet and you have to stir the whole plate up. It has the ‘wok’ taste, not too dry compare to those like eating dry noodle. It only cost RM3.50 for this. (Now RM4)

mee sotong (6)

To those who could not take spicy noodle yet would want to enjoy this famous mee goreng, you can go for one without chili. Usually anything without chili is quite blend in taste. This plate of noodle is flavorful as they are fried with their own special sauce in it and mixture of sotong pull up the taste.

mee sotong (1)

With the noodle served, you people must not miss this stall. directly beside it. Their Signature drink which is…………………..

mee sotong (4)

‘ Coconut Shake’, it doesnt taste so sweet, have a very strong coconut juice taste, with vanilla-ice cream and of course the coconut meat in it. Only RM 2. It is very famous among all the patrons there.

mee sotong (3)

and for this last drink as being regular, the taukeh very nice, make me 1 very special refreshing juice which is called Limau Shake’ which not many people know about it. After having those spicy food. This will be the perfect drink to go along with it. You will have the feeling ahhhh…so satisfied. RM1.50 for this wonderfull drink

mee sotong (2)

Besides those, Ice Kacang in this stall seems a hit to many people, just that I do not really prefer it. Different taste bud.

One of the local delights that I keep bugging my friend to bring me is one of their favourite shop that serve super spicy food which I did not know until I have tasted it. Taliwang Bersaudara

Taliwang (1)

The restaurant deco feels a bit modernise kampung style with wooden walls. . . .

Taliwang (2)

as most of the people here eating with hands with more towards their culture and did not really switch on fan also . .

Taliwang (3)

Bamboo partition, ceiling deco and chairs with wooden tables  .. . .

Taliwang (4)

The price of food is prett reasonable . . . .

Taliwang (5)

One of the must order dish is this ‘Ayam Palecing Taliwang’ well grill and spread with their own home made chili, definately will bring you to the edge of sweat and get your tongue to get numb, the taste of chicken is good, well marinated and the meat is soft. .

Taliwang (6)

Then  my friend told us that, if not enough spicy can add on spicy as she order another place of ‘Sambal Ayam’ which is not my league. . . I surrender. .

Taliwang (7)

Then to blend the spiciness flavor, my friend help us order ‘fried duck salty egg’ for us to add on and surprisingly the taste turns out to be good, saltiness and the spiciness just blends in and goes along well with rice.

Taliwang (8)

Pelacing Kangkung, added on with bean sprout is another spicy dish and the spicy level is mild and by this round I had already finish 2 bottle of Teh Bottol . .

Taliwang (9)

Among all level of spiciness, this is the most kick ass, by second small bite, my sweat and tears just flow out and this is by far one of the most spicy food I have come across, SUPER SPICY yet  the spiciness is a bit addictive as it is very fragrant with a bit grill taste from the chicken, just by this 2 bite I finish another bottle of Teh Bottol. .

 

Taliwang (11)

By the end of the meal I had total of 5 bottles of drinks, which I did not even finish my rice and other dishes that it was too spicy to handle and eat till my lips also ‘chong’ like sausage already. The other 2 person was like, hah? Spicy kah uncle? I told them you guys are not human, eating chili like licking ice cream . .

Well, to those who really love spicy food, this is one of the Bandung local food that you must visit . .

I have long been craving for very nice Szechuan food, the last I had best was in my study time in Melbourne. . . It was not until recently, my friend bring me to this store located at Jalan Alor which is their favourite food for Szechuan, which is Kedai Makanan dan Minuman TKS.

szechuan (1)

This post will be a bit awkward due to all their menu is written in Mandarin and my friend order all the dish, therefore there will be no proper pricing and food name ..

szechuan (2)

For those who cant really eat Spicy szechuan food, then can try out this Lotus Root, fried till crips, a bit mild in taste with very mild spiciness with a bit of wok hei, I love it~

szechuan (3)

Another dish, the finely cut potato cook till it taste like cripsy vegetable. Taste mild spiciness. . .

szechuan (4)

szechuan (5)

This soup base is one of the best, not too spicy that is just perfect, soup base is very sweet yet spicy and I kept drinking this soup till its last drop.

szechuan (6)

This is super spicy with lots of chili oil floating on top and the meat cook till its soft and tender. . . The first sip of the soup my sweat instantly came out yet I am loving it, thick in taste yet super spicy

szechuan (7)

This is another different pot that cook with fish meat, smooth meat and do not underestimate this, as it is very spicy also.

szechuan (8)

Fried Dumpling, pan fried till the bottom its a bit crispy, inside filled with soup base and add in with vinegar and ginger with the dipping chili oil my friend specially mix on it is super nice. We order 2 plate of this.

szechuan (9)

So far, in KL, I find that this is the best stall that served Szechuan food . .total bill came around RM110 and we are tottally satisfied.

Its a recommended store by me if you love Szechuan hawker style spicy food. . .

When we were having good times at Songkran water festival (click here), Jonathan suggest that a restaurant that we must not miss and its highly recommended- Restaurant Kan Eng, which during last round of his trip there he did not manage to eat it as the restaurant is so sardine packed! Then on that day, he said that no matter what die die also must go, then lead us walk one big round in the city area as we read the map wrongly. As we walked towards there our stomach is already growling and we are all drench too as we constantly meet some people that station right out from their house to attack on passerby.

Kan Eng

Restaurant Kan Eng is one of the famous local restaurant that attracted a lot of Malaysians to dine there too for its quality and one thing that surely attracted a lot people which is the price of the food, Its very cheap!

Kan Eng (2)

In the menu offer a lot of local varieties, which is most of us would want to eat but that day we have decided not to eat something spicy as in the morning, we really had spicy food till our tears and sweat all dripping nonstop yet scared that we had fun during the water fight then stomachache.

Jonathan was our captain for the night, we leave him in charge of the order as we were busy eating food that we ta pau on the way walking here, would even said that we attack nearly all the stalls that we come across.

Kan Eng (3)

The food was served fast, and start off with ‘Salted Veggie Intestine Soup’, its a good dish to start off with, as I love the salty and sourness of the soup and the pig’s spare part was cook perfectly that it is very chewy and I love to dip it with soy sauce.

Kan Eng (4)
‘Otak Otak’ is one of my favourite that I would not miss when go for thai food, I just love the taste of it which is not very milky feel, yet its seafood in this. Juicy inside out, that it is not steam till it is solid.

Kan Eng (5)
‘Kerabu Chicken Feet’ which is one of the famous local delicacies, and it was marinated very well, that the sourness and spicy soak into the skin yet its juicy and chewy as it is suppose to be. Some people might find this eerie as its chicken feet skin.

Kan Eng (6)
If you go to thai, and a dish that you must order which is ‘Braised Pork Leg’ without eating this, the makan session would be complete. Braised till the skin its soft that you use fork to open it up, it slide in so smooth and the mean pop up open. The meat and the fats is so soft till it feels like melting on the tongue and eat it with white rice is just perfect.

Kan Eng (7)
I forgot what the name for this vegetable, but its one type of my favourite veggies, fried not so long to maintain the crunchiness of the veggie and cook it plainly to get the best taste out of it, or another way to order is with sambal but Thai doesn’t have sambal.

Kan Eng (8)
‘Fried Oyster’ Some of them love fried oyster, but for me I just love our Malaysian version.

We were very satisfied with the dinner and ‘katui’ serve our table really good, and in Hatyai, do not worry about language barrier as now they can speak Cantonese, Mandarin or Hokkien (which is quite shocking for me) Total damage for the night is around 1000bhat which is around RM100 that we feel is really cheap. A recommeded restaurant if you do visit Hatyai.
