Al-Diafah Sri Petaling (Middle Eastern Cuisine)

[Throwback
Back to Al-Diafah restaurant. Tried the Arabian sauteed veggies dish. It was served with breads.
I didn't know that there are breads with the dish, hence I ordered the shish tawook wrap.
The sauteed veggies has eggplants, capsicums, olives etc cooked till soft....similar to something I had in Emirates flight long time ago😂
[Below] Cross section of the shish tawook wrap. Comes with fries and a dipping (can't remember what it is)
Was full after finishing the wrap and the sauteed veggies so I tapao-ed the bread back home and eat them plain as breakfast the next day.
The bill came to RM44.10 nett.
This was in year 2024.....almost 2 years ago. 
Overall, not my kind of meal. Will stick back to mandi rice or shawarmas next time.

Two Pesos - Tom yum soup mini steamboat

The bunting/banner of Kebun Kopi at the eatery entrance when it was firstly launched.
They also sell assorted kuihs, such as kuih talam, kuih lapis, curry puffs, mochi, yam cake....etc at RM3.50 per box.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Solo steamboat at Two Pesos.....I tried the tom yum soup without additional charge. Previously they only have chicken soup base as the default, anything else would be charged extra.
Here's the menu. The RM13.90 solo steamboat is available throughout the day during weekdays only.

Family Dinner @ Yang Ming

When dining with my elderly parents, we will go safe by ordering non-spicy, non-allergen food. Steamed tilapia is still OK, although my dad would sometimes complaint of rashes after eating certain types of fish. Seafood like prawns, squids, cockles and all others are definitely no-no. Hence you usually see the same old same old thing in our usual orders.
The other dishes in the safe list are....
Sweet & sour pork
Romaine lettuce in fuyu sauce
Tofu with minced pork
The usual orders and the bill came to this usual amount range.
Overall, a good dinner with reasonable price.

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.
