Hainanese Chicken Chop Rice @ Nam Heong

[Throwback]

New item in Nam Heong. Hainanese chicken chop rice with spam and fried egg (RM16.90+)

Taste so-so only. The deep-fried chicken chop is quite oily. But I will order the similar item again perhaps with black pepper sauce or the salted egg gravy (for the chicken chop) just to try out the different flavors.

Little Bally looks colorful at night.

Had dinner in Warakuya, this time i had teriyaki chicken don which came with miso soup, kimchi, shredded cabbage (with cucumber & tomato) and a cube of tofu (RM20.90+)

Also ordered an ala-carte smoked duck sushi (RM24.90+). There is a thinly sliced mango beneath the smoked duck. Taste OK, not really my kind of sushi.....I think i better stick back to salmon or tuna.

Total bill came to RM53.10 nett after service charge and tax.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I like the doughy dumpling skin and the succulent pork with chives dumpling, so I went back to Fu Man Yuen the other day to get my 'dumpling fix'. RM13.80 nett. Served with shredded ginger.

BON APPETIT!

Treasure Isle Hotel Verandah @ Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands

While in BVI, I stayed at Treasure Isle hotel which is located in Road Town, the capital of BVI.

The hotel occupancy rate is kinda low....I think roughly less than 10 occupants (including me). Just an assumption coz I see that most rooms are dark (lights switched-off) despite a Sunday night.

I had my dinner in the hotel's restaurant....not many choices in the menu and it was expensive.....coz Caribbean price....LOL!

This is Tuscan chicken thigh....

According to the menu description: Pan seared chicken thighs in a cheesy herbed tomato and spinach cream sauce.

Taste good! Price? USD27 nett.

The restaurant is quite empty too (all the time)....

Nevertheless, scenic view from this place.....

Wallace Chicken

Wallace Chicken has an outlet in the neighbourhood....It was opened sometime last year....

Decided to give it a try....

Ordered the RM9.99 - chicken burger with fried chicken

Did an online review and got another piece of free fried chicken....

When I arrived home, I opened the packet and saw another extra piece of chicken...so, it is now 3 pieces altogether!

I'm a happy kid!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next door to the Wallace chicken is the dimsum restaurant....

Look at the variety of dimsum here....

Here's what I had...

The menu...

Taste-wise is just so-so....the dimsum is not those freshly prepared...it is the frozen type and reheat upon ordering.

Chicken chop in Japanese curry with rice at Zok Noodles House....

Sometimes I don't feel like eating noodles, so I ordered rice.....in a noodles shop😂

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bai Wei minibowl.....

I had fried rice, lotus root with pork slices and steamed chicken with mushroom in soy sauce.

Seaweed soup is FOC and free flow.

I only eat in Bai Wei when all eateries are closed coz this place opens till quite late...

Used to open on 24/7, not sure about now.

Little Bally @ Pinnacle Sri Petaling

A newly opened restaurant in Pinnacle mall, with Bali concept interior but serving mostly western food. This is their 3rd branch after Subang Jaya and Puchong Jaya.

It is also a place for drinks coz it opens from 3pm till 2am.

The menu is quite extensive...

posting here for my own reference...

Their chicken chop is worth trying

pork chop maybe?

they have top 10 best seller items

This XXL chicken chop is so money-worth, but only available before 8pm and need to buy a drink to get the promotion.

So, out of curiosity I went to try it on a fine weekday.

Add on mushroom sauce for RM1.

Huge portion....

The drink is huge too....served in a tall glass with height almost the length of the straw.

The bill came to RM21.80 nett after service charge and tax. Taste-wise OK OK lah....chicken chop would be too dry if without the mushroom sauce.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unrelated to the above, Super Kitchen Pan Mee has replaced all their bowls with new ones that has the restaurant logo....Perhaps they followed Jojo Pan Mee footstep (which did the same last year). Ah, branding matters!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Japanese food 'fix' at Warakuya....I wanted udon and rice....so had both😁

Soon Lok Puchong Jaya

[Throwback] Family dinner at Soon Lok this time.

Trying out this place coz it has quite alot of positive reviews on Google

We had:

Claypot tofu with assorted veggies

Yam ring with kungpao chicken

cross-section of the yam ring....I can taste the deep, earthy richness of the yam!😋

This place specializes in roast duck....so we ordered half duck

not to forget some greens....stir-fried romaine lettuce in fuyu sauce

The dishes before the claypot tofu arrives

Overall, good quality dishes and quick service too. They occupied 3 shop lots (if not mistaken) and all tables were fully occupied during the weekend. Luckily, we booked a table beforehand.

Total bill came to RM162.50 nett for 5 pax. Quite reasonable.

We will definitely be back again!

Chillax in airbnb home

Continuation of the previous post

The following day (Sunday, 18th Jan).....I was still recovering from jet lag...

hence, I stayed at home and in the evening went to the nearby supermarket to stock up food and essential items.

This place is spacious....1 bedroom with 2 bathrooms and a proper living, dining and kitchen area....

This is a corner unit. Bright and spacious.

the kitchen is equipped with microwave, oven, air fryer, cooker, blender, coffee maker, toaster, water boiler....

The Drija electric cooker which has safety lock enabled

At night, the rooftop pool

The rooftop communal working/meeting room

The communal areas (gym, squash court, sauna, swimming pool, meeting rooms) are only accessible with fingerprint scanning.

Overall, quite a nice place to stay and is convenient to get groceries and food. There are 2 restaurants located at the ground floor of this apartment, one of it is an award-winning pizza restaurant with long queue on every evening. Will blog about it when I have time😉
