Kechara Oasis New Age Vegetarian Cuisine @ Jaya One, PJ

No Comments
Today was a special day, suddenly a person treat us to eat. So happily we search for a nice Vegetarian restaurant to eat. While browsing through, then my friend was looking through at a list of restaurant and ask me to check with her and suddenly I saw this name, Kechana which I remember a few blogger had review on this place before. So quickly check it out and yes, it was the place that they have review before, so we have make our decision to go there. Kekek

Review the catch, was today, our Director suddenly said want to treat us for lunch, so we were a bit shock and surprise but what the heck just go la.

After reach and park that place, while walking there and near towards the entrance as I walked quite fast then I overheard this, ‘Wah…!!! This place gonna cost me how much?’ got replied by, not that expensive only la. Reasonable.

Sorry that there is no picture of this place and the food its because my director is there. So better skip this action and keep a low profile.

I like the place and interior, a very comfortable place to dine for a dinner and I can say, it’s the most classy place I have ever been for a Vegetarian Restaurant. Once reach lunch time, the crowd start to flock in, filled in the place quite fasts.

While looking at the menu, they do offer daily set lunch with a very reasonable price. Then we choose the Wednesday Set Menu cost RM119++ if I am not mistaken.

It served with ‘Goose Meat’, oh~ one of my favourite that I would not miss during this season. So far this is the best I have eaten. Well fried and dry up which you eat its not juicy(with oil) yet covers with ‘fu chuk’ taste as it is suppose to be. A lil crispy on the skin which is just nice.

‘Toufu Mince Meat’ is a great companion with a bowl of rice, with a lil spicy as the gravy base and the dish is well fried.

‘Sweet and Sour Pork’ which we enjoy it a lot, as it taste as good as eating the real one. A bit solid and chewy and wasn’t too sweet and sour. Just the right taste level.

‘Butter Mushroom’ is the best compare to the rest. It taste like fried squid on the first bite. A well prepared soft fried on the mushroom yet preserving the taste of it, covers with a very fragrance butter dressing on top of it. Highly Recommended.

‘Vegetable’ was something pretty normal, nothing much to brag about.

We did order extra ‘Mutton Curry’ as recommended by the waiter and its consider one of their signature dish. I would say again, one of the best too during my Vegetable hunting so far. Mild, with soft juicy tender mutton look and taste alike. A great dish for meal opener.

As I feel the body heat pilling inside me, so I decided to order take away ‘Gui Ling Gao’ for tea and guest what. It is the most expensive thing that I have ever come across. RM7.50 for a size of baby’s palm size which you can finish it in one mouth or bite. Nothing special too.

The total bill cost RM180. After a few days of eating, this would be one of the restaurant that I would recommended but with the price of course slightly higher but with the quality they are serving, I do not mind as its hard to find nice vegetarian dish or restaurant.

Gurney Drive @ The Gardens

No Comments
Last weekend were shopping around then thought of eating Penang food and always go to Little Penang Café, then I just remembered on whose blog that I have read, giving good review on this restaurant, so fast fast ask them change place to Gurney Drive.

When I reached there, I am quite surprise to see the crowd as it is not many. Can count with your 5 fingers but then what the heck, just trust that person’s taste. Never try never know!

They also bring in the ‘Beca’ to add in more feel on it.

This is what I mean, seriously not many people. The were like only 4-6 stalls operating ~

Just love the cover of the menu. Take closed up, makes you feel like you are row row row your boat.
Then the manager came by to greet us and also to take up our order. The best part is, he also know how to speak HOKKIEN. Kaki lang ah~ friendly person~
As usual, drink order first, so I decided to order the special promo drink of the day. ‘Barley Ice’ RM 1 (usual price RM3.80). Just by looking at it is just a mere normal bali ais loh~ but when I get to drink it that time, I am just falling in love with the drink. Not sweet, rich with barley taste which I like it thick compare the one offer in the kopitiam which is quite diluted or sweet. Highly Recommend!

Penang food, which one of the famous food to crave for is ‘Penang Rojak’. The ‘Hae Ko’ just feel that it is lacking of some taste. Although the paste is quite sticky and thick but couldn’t tell what is it missing to make the extra umph in it~RM8.80

This ‘Loh Bak Set Big’ was this highly recommended by a blogger(which I forgot whom).The har peng is goring to crispy, which is very nice, loh bak – is rich with filling, when you even pick it up the compactness of the meat wouldn’t fall off easily. Goreng perfectly which doesn’t makes the skin over goring. Taufu and egg noting much to comment about as it taste normal. With the price RM16 which I thought pretty expensive, but turn out to be reasonable with the quality they are serving.

Usual hawker food which normally ppl wont miss is the ‘Char Koey Teow’. I was abit disappointed when it got served because of the portion. I said, fine dining meh~…plate so big, portion so small, then my friend kacau me, want me to take soy sauce and sambal to help you conteng to look more perfect boh… ??

But after trying out, you will be surprise of the taste. It was fried to perfect, with the wok hei is there, quite dry and spiciness lvl just ngam.. We had not enough of it. Just finish within seconds. Highly Recommended! RM8.80

As I always never miss one of my favourite ‘Curry Mee’, before with the chili paste was put in, the taste of the soup is pretty pale, and santan taste is just abit.

After putting in a spoonful of chili paste, the whole bowl had turn to fiery red and it is not even spicy at all, just the colour but the taste had changed. It taste much better but still not the best. RM 8.80

Next item not to be miss ‘Hokkien Mee’. The soup is quite rich in taste which is the most important thing in prawn mee. They gave generous amount of mee and bee hoon. It also comes with a few big pieces of prawns. With the charges of RM8.80 is pretty decent.

One of Penang signature is ‘Penang Laksa’. Turns out to be not the best of all. The soup is quite clear, not rich in taste and fish chunks or fish blended that mix in the soup. It wasn’t serve very warm. By adding in prawn paste just makes it taste weirder. Charging at RM8.80

When comes to Penang desert, ‘Ice Kacang’ would consider as one of the item must try out or order. In this restaurant, I would say just thumbs up for this. We seriously enjoy salivating it. Hard to come across a nice ice kacang which the most important is the ice was blended very soft. Perfectly on it. Overall, wasnt too sweet on it, just a great desert to close the meal with. Highly Recommended RM3.80 ONLY.
Next would be the ‘Teow Chew Cendol’. Again, the ice is soft, the gula melaka is not too sweet or they have just put the right amount on it and the santan feels like eating fresh. The coconut taste is there. I would just say, gone within 60 seconds. Also charge at RM 3.80
Overall, we are very satisfied with the food that they offer here which I feel it taste much better compare to Little Penang Cafe. Was just wondering after that, why the food is so nice, yet the ppl is so little. The pricing which I find it reasonable with the quality of food they are serving. Would surely come for second round.
Remarks:
Just feel that, they don have a QC in Char Koey Teow which we order the second plate, it doesnt taste nice at all compare to the first plate and also the amout of time we have waited is more than 20 minutes which we believe we are the only table ordering extra. Maybe the chef go and tangkap si ham.

Star Trek

No Comments

Genre: Science-Fiction/Action/Adventure

I was never a Star Trek fans all the while but heard a lot of good review on that movie. So planning to watch that movie and guess what. After 6 weeks into the market, and I still cant find a ticket starting from Monday till Friday. I thought it was an old movie and just thought of getting it there on the spot. To my surprise it was full. Was looking forward from it till Saturday, to buy the night show, I purchase online at 3.30 pm and the seats available was only the front 2 rows. So what the heck, just buy lah~

It was a show that, Nero trying to revenge on the empire had promise to save but then his planet got destroy and one of the guy Spock from future came talk to the person with James T.Kirk that would change the fleet of USS Enterprise and makes its mark in the history.

In the end I still think not my type of movie to watch event though a lot of ppl saying it’s a great movie even friends from Indonesia said that but from my personal view, I think its overrated.

Can either watch it during movie day or just grab a dvd also can.

Overall ratings 6/10, Ok ok lah~

Day 2 Mong Kok Eating Spree Continue

No Comments

Second day of our trip. As we wake up early and gather ready to go and hunt for food. Previously at Mong Kok I did spot a shop there already as it was quite packed with people but I think every shop also was packed with ppl that night.

While we reached LangHam Place to go for shopping and we found out that we were too early. Most of the shop had not open yet so we went to look for breakfast. Ask around for the stall on the street where will he recommend us to eat and he ask us walk walk walk further down bout 2 blocks away and turn right.

So ended up in Mong Kok again for the first night when we came out from the subway tunnel. Then I instantly point to the shoop that I spotted before and ask every 1 go in and eat.

I don know how to read chinese so what the heck. Just take pictures and post it up. The funny thing in the restaurant is always ‘A Chan’, ‘B Chan’, ‘C Chan’ means like set A or B or C. Really a Hong kong tea house. Kekekek.
As for me, I only know how to see and point. A half banana like me which know how to speak but do not know how to read, so the only thing to rely on during order food of course is the Pictures. If the pictures quality is good and the food take tempting and come out SUCKS also no choice.
If I am not mistaken this is ‘Set G’ HKD 20 which is 1 ‘Milk Tea’ and ‘Polo Bun’. First thing first. I must say that the milk tea here is far much nicer that any of the restaurant in Malaysia can offer. 10x better than Kim Gary or watever Hong kong restaurant we have. The thickness of the tea and the milk taste is just there. A satisfying drink to start off with.
and of course my very favourite and not to be miss during in Hong Kong which is of course the ‘Polo Pau‘. The top, is perfectly backed and the crust is sweet, the bun is soft and the butter is melting to suits the taste of it. One bite will just take your breath away. This might not be the best polo bauz in the area but to me, it is satisfying though which I had 2.
This is what I order besides the Set G. The name is ‘Jar Jiang Mian‘ if not mistaken, and the taste to me till today is still fresh in my mind and craving for more of it. The best thing is the noodle of course, it is curley curley and just don know how to tell why the wantan noodle in Hong Kong is much better than in Malaysia. The meat is soft, the sauce is sour and abit spicy. When you mix and stir it together, you just want to have more of it. HKD 24
My friend order the ‘Koey Teow Soup’ Noting fancy about it. The soup is like plain water, the koey toew is normal. Plain plain like dat also around HKD 24.

Next of course not to be miss in Hong Kong which is a MUST eat food. ‘Wan Tan Noodle’. As I say on the Jar Jiang Mian above the noodle is just so nice and curley curley and you can just bite the strand of it. It is abit solid which makes you want to salivate more of the noodle. The soup base is good, which had the taste of wantan and they are surely not to kiam siap on the WanTan. Inside it, is filled with 2 big prawns and the taste of it, you would just want to ask for more. 3 is not enough, to satisfaction you need another 2 which makes just ngam ngam. HKD 24

The last dish which is thing the look is kinda funny, ‘Macaroni with Ham’. I feel like the soup taste really macaroni and the ham is just ham. Noting much to comment on this as I only try the soup base.
and of course.. all of us are very full and satisfy with our breakfast…Time to Head to SHOPPING!!!!!!!

Ipoh Chicken Rice @ Mid Valley

No Comments
Noting to do and was doing some shopping at Mid valley, then walk across the road saw this shop. Since the lighting out there caught my attention and it is Ipoh chicken rice.

Walked into the front area saw this guy was so hardworking doing his preparation. The funny thing is that the other guy told him that, be cool be cool, just act normal, ppl from magazine taking you. Yau yeng arleady. I was laughing inside my heart and walking in after that.

The display chicken sure do look tempting.

The menu is simple. 1 page settle the thing. The most funny thing in the menu is NO PRICE. I was sitting there thought of SHIT…don know will kena how much already. What the heck..just try la… There are quite a number of selection in the food especially the ‘Siew Yuk’ seems like a lot ppl ordering as me the only 1 there. Cannot finish. Will be next round.

While waiting just snap the interior…normal high class kopitiam style. Without car passing by.

They asked me what I want as usually go to Ipoh of course try the ‘Hor Fun’ . It is quite oily on the too and can see like a layer of it but sure it does taste good as compare to the one in Ipoh, not much difference. RM 2 for this
Heee, as usual as any where got ‘Pork Ball’ I will order. My favourite. It is good though and it is big in size. 1 biji hantam into mouth will be too big. Like this very much. Only RM4

This is their Signature dish. ‘Chicken’ . With the price of RM7 they are charging and only a few pieces I feel that it is abit pricey. But the chicken is not as soft and the skin is not as smooth as the 1 in Ipoh but no complain. Not bad.

The funny thing is that the service to me is extra nice and like there is 1 waiter standing on the other side waiting to serve me. Maybe they saw me taking pictures of their dish and thought I am some magazine or newspaper ppl. hahah~ cannot denied that enjoy that privilege. Just that no Disc. Was hopping so.
