Late Lunch in Dragon-I Restaurant at The Curve

Nice and cosy atmosphere. Look at all the minature terracota warriors figurines! I normally prefer eating dim sum at normal coffee shop but since I have my little toddler with me, we choose to eat at Dragon I for its’ cozy environment. You can find this restaurant chain in many shopping complexes and it is a rather popular meeting place to catch up with friend while enjoying the wide arrays of dim sum they have to offer. They have an open concept kitchen and you can actually see the chef preparing the food to be served. It is interesting to see how the chef (mainly from Hong Kong and China) making and pulling the noodles (lar mein) to form tiny strands. Dragon I serve mainly cuisine from Shanghai, Szechuan, Beijing and Lanzhou. We ordered Spring Rolls, Meat Bun, Fried Tofu, Beijing Dumpling, Sheat Kap (dessert from frog saliva) and Pork Ribs Lar Mien (pulled noodles). There total bill came up to be RM74.75. Here is the comment about the food serve plus the pictures.

Beijing Dumpling Actually I mistakenly ordered this dish. I actually wanted the fried lor bak kor (fried carrot cake). Anyway, I decided to try it. The dumplings have meat filling and spring skins. Tasted quite good but I am not into this type of dumplings.

Meat Bun The fillings for the meat bun has nice aroma and the skin is thin. On thing though, it is not oily at all and contain lean meat.

Spring Rolls There is nothing special about the crispy spring rolls. Taste good if dipped in chilly sauce.

Pork Ribs Lar Mien This is another dish that I like very much. The soup is rich is taste and the pork ribs are very tender. I added some of the fried chilly oil into the soup and this gave it an extra kick!

Fried Tofu I like the fried tofu. The skin is crispy and well marinated with spices. The tofu inside has very smooth and soft texture in contrast to the nice crispy skin. Good!

The peanut tidbits. Sheat Kap (Frog saliva jelly desssert) I forgot to take a picture of this dessert. I was told that this jelly like drink is made from frog saliva. Anyway it tastes good! Ha ha ha! Address Dragon – I Restaurant Lot 136 and 137, 1st Floor The Curve No. 6 Jalan PJU 7/3, Mutiara Damansara 47800, Petaling Jaya Tel : 603 77286888 Fax : 77286885 Other Dragon I outlets are at Mid Valley Mega Mall, 1 Utama Shopping Complex, Sunway Pyramid, Cheras Leisure Mall, Penang Queensbay Mall, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur and Aeon Bukit Tinggi.

Lin Restaurant, Seven Village Raja Uda Kueh Tiaw Soup (Flat Rice Noodles Soup)

Kueh Teow Soup with generous amount of minced pork (bak choh). Kuan Jiang and Lobak. Food prices clearly stated. Nice, ambient and clean restaurant!

7 Village Restaurant

Whenever I want to enjoy nice kueh teow soup (flat rice noodles soup) in a nice and ambient environment, I would drop by to Lin Restaurant. This is one of the most famous kueh tiaw soup restaurants in Butterworth and it is located right in the heart of busy Raja Uda Road. If you come from Jalan Siram and Telaga Air Road Junction heading towards Raja Uda Road, you will notice a blue signboard Chinese Character for seven by the roadside on your left not far away from this junction. Turn in to the road on your left and you will come across a row of shop lots on your right. Restaurant Lin is located here. I ordered Kueh Tiau Soup (Guo Tiau Tang, RM2.70 for small), Teowchew Kuan Jiang (Yam paste wrapped in beancurd skin, RM0.60) and lobak (braised meat rolls, RM1.20). One thing I like about the kueh tiau here is they are quite generous with the minced pork and I just love the taste of it. It has been quite some time since I last had such a good kueh tiau soup in Butterworth. I washed everything down with a cup of black coffee (RM0.80). The food prices here are very reasonable and for such a nice dining environment it was worth it! No wonder they have such a good crowd here most of the time! Address Restaurant Lin 6,8 & 10, Lorong Ceri 6, Taman Aman Jaya Off Raja Uda, 12300 Butterworth Tel : 604 3330216 Opening Hours : Mon – Sat, 7.30am to 5.30pm Sun , 7.30am to 1 pm Map to Lin Restaurant, Seven Village Raja Uda Kueh Tiaw Soup

Planet 888 is a very big food court with many stalls and shops inside. There are ample parking spaces and also a car wash here. The first one and a half hour parking is free and so is from 6pm to 6am. I met Mr. Kim, the owner of the Korean Food Stall. Mr. Kim is a very hardworking and friendly person. ‘Anyeong Haseyo!, he will great you. He is real good at promoting his food to whoever passes by his stall. I ordered the Don Gas Dish, which is actually Korean style pork chop, friend rice, Kim chi and fun fries. You can opt for salad if you don’t take Kim chi. The Don Gas dish is priced at RM7, comes with generous serving. The taste, thumbs up. This stall also serves other traditional Korean food priced from RM7 to RM10. Mr. Kim also has another similar food stall in Asia Cafe, Subang Jaya. Kamsa Hamnida Mr. Kim for the nice food.

Penang Authentic Prawn Paste Chee Cheong Fun in O&S PJ

O&S Restaurant has been around for quite some time and I first frequented this place in the seventies when I followed my dad to KL. My favourite hawker fare here is the authentic Penang Prawn Paste Chee Cheong Fun. I normally go there early in the morning to avoid the crowd. The chee cheong fun is served with special gravy that is made from prawn paste and sweet sauce, garnished with crispy fried shallots and sesame seed. Be warned, the smell can be very overpowering but the taste........wooooo fantastic! Curry gravy is also available but I prefer the Good old Penang Prawn Paste Chee Cheong Fun. My sister 'tar pau' (take away) this one for me!

The wet bak kut teh here is of a milder version. The dry one is not very dark but full of taste. The dry version is cooked with dry chilies, dried cuttlefish and dark soya sauce. 2 bowls of rice (RM2), one dry Bak Kut Teh (RM9), one wet BKT (RM9) and a pot of Tork Shau Heong Tea (RM3) cost me RM23. The serving of BKT is quite small, a bit on the pricy side. Address: No 23G, Jalan ½, Taman Industri Pusat Bandar Puchong, Bt. 12 ½, Jalan Puchong, 47100 Puchong, Selangor. Note : Telok Pulai Restaurant have already moved to a new location, shoplot at the back row of the old restaurant, facing the main road. The signboard is now red in colour.

I had a lunch date here. 2) Lunch – Penang Curry Mee (noodles) – Sin Hup Seng Restaurant Penang Curry Mee I ordered two bowls of Penang curry mee. The gravy is nice. The more chilies you add in the nicer it will be, so remember to ask for more chili. Ok, the curry mee pass my test. The stall also sells Penang Prawn Mee, Kueh Teow Soup and Fried Kueh Teow. Address: Sin Hup Seng Restaurant Jalan 21/1, Seapark, Petaling Jaya (Opposite KFC) Jalan 21/1, Seapark, PJ Map 2 pm - Dropped by the Commissioner for Oath office in 2, Jalan SS2/61, SS2, 47000 Petaling JayaTel 78772495 HP 0123991081 (new location), to get two documents signed. I can hear my Branch Manager LOL, 2 new recruits, Yay! 3 pm – Decided to pay my business partner baby products shop in SS2 a visit. Address is 39-A, Jln SS2/55, 47300, Petaling Jaya. We had a discussion on current stock market situation over a teh tarik in Pelita Restaurant. Sorry, forgot to take pictures of the restaurant. 4.30 pm – Another business appointment in Taman Bahagia, PJ. 6.30 pm – Headed to Ulu Klang for my next appointment. Since Jalan Genting Klang is all jammed up I took short cut though Taman Sri Rampai. Since I am in the area, I decided to drop by in Taman Sri Rampai to eat my favourite Char Kueh Teow. Arrrrh, the stall is closed. So, I went over check out another stall in that area that I used to frequent, Jawa Mee. 3) Dinner – Jawa Mee – Ya-Ka- Fook Restaurant The tasty Jawa Mee, real big serving! Sorry, picture is not clear! A pretty lady distracted me The restaurant was packed with diners. I managed to find a seat by sharing a table with a lone diner. The chubby uncle that runs the stall is very generous. At RM3.50 per plate, the serving is rather large. This area is populated by students, so you can find many foods stall that serve large serving of food at very reasonable price. The Jawa mee is garnished with sesame seed, fried shallots, fried tofu, fried prawn crackers, vegetable and boiled potatoes. Anyway I am really proud of myself for being able to finish all of it. Downed everything with a glass of iced coffee. Yum Yum.

Why can’t the contractors put up proper sign board and hazard lights when they are upgrading the road? I nearly went on to the wrong side of the road. Luckily, I saw the faded painted arrow sign on the road. Gosh!When I arrived at Burger King, Bukit Antarabangsa, I saw my good friend, WY. Lee had just parked his car.

Hawker Food – Lam Mee (Noodle) At Hup Soon Restaurant SS3, Petaling Jaya

Mr. Tan, preparing my Lam Mee....................Opps, I started eating and forgot to take pictures Fried rice uncle frying eggs in preparation for the lunch crowd Last week, after my early morning appointment in Phileo Damansara, I decided to pay my old friend, Mr. Tan a visit. Mr. Tan, a happy go lucky guy, runs a Lam Mee(noodles) and Hokkien Mee stall in Hup Soon Restaurant. I have been eating here for the last 14 years. The Lam Mee soup is clear, unlike those that are commonly served by other hawkers. Choice of thick (tai lok mee) mee and normal type of mee are available. I ordered a bowl of mixed bihun(rice vermicelli) and mee(noodle) Lam Mee. The Lam Mee is garnished with strips of fried eggs, pork, spring onion, fried shallots and prawns. The thick gravy tastes good with the sambal(prawn paste chili with lime) provided. A bowl of Lam Mee is priced at RM3.80 for a small and RM4.30 for a big one. If you are on a tight budget because of the recent petrol price hike or on a diet, you can order a ‘kosong’(noodle only) at only RM3.00 per bowl….. LOL. Other popular stalls here are the fried rice with taugeh(bean sprout) and yong tau foo(fish paste tofu). I think this is the only place that serves fried rice with taugeh. At night all the stalls are closed, except one that serves western food at a reasonable price. The place is packed during lunch hours, so be there early if you want to avoid the crowd. Address: Hup Soon Restaurant, Jln SS3/29, Petaling Jaya, 47300. Open for Breakfast and Lunch. Dinner : Western Food Goggle Earth Location: Latitude 3°5’40.32”N, Longitude 101°36’39.93”E Jalan SS3/29, Petaling Jaya Map

Food(NV) - Dry Bak Kut Teh -Restaurant Shun Heng, Sunway Mas PJ-Non Halal

Dry Bah Kut Teh Restaurant in Sunway Mas
Heong Pin Tea, goes well with Bak Kut Teh
My lunch buddy, Chang J.P., showing the thumbs up.
The dry bak kut teh. Bon appetit!
Ladies fingers(okra) with oyster sauce.
Yam rice and yau char kueh(chinese crullers)
Nothing left! Sapu habis, ha ha.
This is my sixth visit to Shun Heng Bak Kut Teh Restaurant. The taste of the dry bak kut teh is fantastic and I fell in love with it ever since a friend of mine, whose office is just across the road, bought me there. This time I brought along my buddy, Chang JP to let him try the dry bak kut teh. We ordered a pot of dry bak kut teh, oyster sauce ladies fingers (okra), yau char kueh, yam rice, white rice and of course the heong pin Chinese tea that goes well with bak kut teh. The dry bak kut teh is served with soup separated. Dry chilies and cuttle fish (sotong kering, yau yee in Cantonese) that are added to the dry bak kut teh made the aroma very special. On top of that, the dry cuttle fish also made the dish full of natural sweetness. I rarely take ladies fingers unless with sambal belacan(prawn paste chili) but the oyster sauce ladies fingers(okra) served here is good. The sauce combination is just nice, not too sweet and not too salty. As usual we dip the yau char kueh into the soup provided. One thing I like about this restaurant is that the soups are provided individually and they top it up pretty fast when on request. Other dishes like pig trotters and the normal wet bak kut teh are also available here. The restaurant is clean and the place is comfortable. Very suitable if you are bringing your family there or want to have a business discussion over lunch. But make sure you invite me, Ok! Sounds like a Tai Koh lah! Ha ha. Shun Heng is the branch of the Taman Sentosa Klang Bak Kut Teh. Operation Hours:weekdays - 9am - 3pm / 6pm - 9pm weekends - 8am - 3pm / 5.30pm - 9pm Off day mostly on alternate Monday.
