McDonald Nasi lemak VS KFC nacho cheesy crunch

Image
22 May 2018 - Ini kalilah habis...mom craves for fried chicken for supper and dilemma to choose which fried chicken is nicer? Seeing social media and TV as showing both trendy fried chicken, I have to go to buy mcd nasi lemak with fried chicken, and the KFC nacho cheezy crunch. Mcd Nasi lemak - soft coconut rice, but their spices to create their spicy crispy ayam goreng mcd is so aromatic, make me wonder what spices they use to marinate the chickens. I suspect it is the paprika and red chilli powder are their secret recipes. Need more sambal though. Kfc nacho cheesy crunch - crunchy nacho flakes over hot spicy chicken, it is where they make louder cripsy sound as you bite on it. Creamy Yellow Mustard dipping sauce is the partner in crime. So which fried chicken is your favorite? *I'm more concerned with my calories and fats after eating both!

Mc Cafe - Banana Muffin and teh tarik

Image
7 June 2018 - Guess where am I enjoying my hot teh tarik and big banana muffin? Mcd serves more than just their burgers, as mc cafe offers cheap western American coffee style, Malaysian teh tarik and some hot selling muffins. However, if I drink their frothy teh tarik everyday,i think I will get diabetes very soon. Banana muffin with crunchy walnuts are always my favorite.

Shucked - Oyster Bar in Village Grocer Ampang

Image
25 July 2018 - Enjoying a quick fresh oyster shooter (Bloody Mary) at village grocer at only rm15. Bloody Mary premix earlier for convenience. However, didn't taste much alcohol. Yet, an oyster wine bar is a strategic plan for a hustle mommy with kiddos running around in the supermarket. They have quite a nice comfortable bar and seatings, but I have no time to enjoy the facilities, haha. Also selling salmon and trouts, etc. Come Over for a shooter! http://www.shuckedoysterbars.com/

Image
25 July 2018 - Teck Kee bak kut Teh in restoran Loong yee at taman Midah. Clear bak kut Teh with the smell of dong gui herbs cooked in 1.5 hour normally. soft ribs and lots of pork meats, tender and succulent. Gravy tasty sweet vinegar pork trotter with the strong ginger taste. Sour bit for me, but that's the point of having vinegar pork trotter. Simple boiled you mak with deep fried onions garnishing.

Restoran A You Lee - Dai Be Steam Fish Head, delicious Char Keoy Teow

Image
23 July 2018 - Dai be steam fish head (signboard wrongly named as heat) is an old coffee shop at the corner of taman connaught area - Restoran A You Lee. Steam big fish head will be using Asian big head carp fish (雄鱼头) ,super fresh flesh with simple soya sauce, gingers and their red chilli Paso is crazy spicy! The best part is their cooking method ensure the fish doesn't overcooked, you can test by trying to remove the fish meat off it's bone, as in not too soft.  2nd, I tell uncle char keoy teow that my friend says I must come to try his char keoy teow, or else she won't friend me. Uncle was like: "wa so serious ah? " 😂 Nevertheless, the char keoy trow was nicely done with great wok fried, delicious, and on par with penang taste.  Last, fresh fish balls and fishmaw are also add on for lunch meal. Guess today we became meat eaters, haha... But better than eating so many carbos every day. Proteins are better. Restoran A You Lee Jalan

22 July 2018 - Passed by kak lian bao and kuih yday. Kak lian operates sell and takeaway in their own house in Ampang. Making handmade buns, some kuih and loh mai gai. Opens only Mon - sat I think 9am@6pm. Opens only on special Sunday's if kak lian didn't go for outing. Overall just happy to have someone doing handmade bun at least, the fillings are quite a good portion, not really salty either. Loh mai gai average.

Ming Chu Seafood Sri Petaling 名厨奇怪煲海鲜饭店

Image
19 July 2018 - Restaurant ming chu seafood Sri Petaling. Came over for a private gathering by invitation. 17 fish tanks with fresh seafood, but I didn't know where is it.  New upgraded interior with classy set up great for occasions, with private rooms and karaoke equipment and business presentation if you like. Friendly staff. Aircond facilities. Interesting to see they use disposable plastic tablecloth from China, where they dispose your leftovers without need to keep washing the tablecloth. Their signatures are signature magic pot consists of all kinds of seafood: fish, prawns, squid, sotong, clams, mussels., yam, white lobak, enoki mushrooms, chicken. It does look like a CNY treasure pot 盆菜,but a different version with soup broth and spicy. Other signature dishes are clay pot rice eel fish, clay pot abalone rice, garlic smoked duck rice, Japanese style river prawn rice. We order: 1) Thai style sweet sour crab, where the claws and legs come in one piece

Restoran Farmers Street - herbal noodle soup

Image
14 July 2018 - Quick stop at restaurant farmers street in jaya shopping centre. At first, the impression was a nyonya food concept, stating that most of their signature dishes were fried chicken rice. So end up ordering clay pot noodles and since I crave for meesua herbal soup. Their milk tea was only using taiwan pearl milk tea powder and not the classic teh tarik. 😕 Herbal soup mee Sua is good as they use the Chinese herbs to boil the soup at least (some place just use powder form)  Clay pot noodles too salty. Didn't finish. However, both considered big individual portion. Just can't get why it's named as farmer streets when it serves fusion menu. Their appeal seem like more towards western design. Restoran Farmers Street 13-13, Jaya Shopping Centre, Jalan Dato Jamil Rais 15, Seksyen 14, 46100 Petaling Jaya, Selangor everyday 10am - 10pm

Jalan Alor Street Art

Image
7 July 2018 - Finally we found the jalan alor street art. It isn't easy as we ask around and some restaurant staffs don't know where is it. It also didn't appear in google map.  First stop is at the yard boutique hotel, located near to a jalan alor market as well. The bright yellow bird Calvary, big flower on green grass art on the floor.  Unfortunately, the road transportation is making the floor painting dirty and black.  The Yard Boutique Hotel 51 D, Tengkat Tong Shin, Bukit Bintang, 50200 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur https://goo.gl/maps/Cj6HppRi92r Second stop is near to hotel replica inn Bukit bintang. Passer by area so it's still fine. Art: forest tree and blue river on the floor. Beautiful colors by contrast zig zag on the floor with bright colors building. A little girl in grey visuals with red flowers on her ears. Yellow black butterflies flying by the wall.  Beautiful street a
