Family Dinner @ Chee Seong

Back at Chee Seong for the weekend family dinner.

We ordered 4 dishes for 5 pax

Stir fried romaine lettuce in fuyu sauce

Marmite chicken

Fish maw and scallops with beancurd

Sweet and sour fish fillets

The dishes taste good especially the marmite chicken and the sweet & sour fish fillets.

The bill came to RM173.90 nett with rice and drinks.

FOC guilin gao (herbal jelly) after completing Google review.

Midam Korean Restaurant - Sundubu Jjigae

The slightly different banchans this time....

Instead of macaroni salad, this time i got mashed potatoes...

Sundubu jjigae looks red but it isn't spicy at all. They provide 1 empty plate, so I can scoop out the ingredients and let them cool down before eating.

I like how they are generous with the kimchi....and they are fresh and crunchy.

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

Went to XLL Malahotpot again after 2 years.

The first time I went I was shocked with the huge portion that is enough to feed 3 pax....

This time I'm more well prepared....I bought along a container to tapao. 

Instead of spicy mala, i opted for the 'least spicy' level and with Tomyum flavor.

Tapao half of it before proceeding to devour the rest....

The next day, I had the tapao ones eaten cold straight out from the fridge...it tastes like Chinese cold dish, which I like.

The bill is RM23 for the vegetarian option, including rice and drink.

*chicken or pork option will be slightly expensive

Warakuya

Went to Warakuya again, this time I tried the salmon sashimi.

It was served in a huge bowl filled with ice and some decorative...

I like the thick cut. This bowl costs RM25.90++

I also had kitsune soba which I have blogged previously.

The total bill came to around RM50 for the soba and salmon sashimi.

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

Taro mille crepe cake from RT Pastry. RM13.45 nett after tax.

Slight taro taste, not too sweet and pleasant to eat.

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

The Japanese umbrellas decorating the wall outside Mitasu Pinnacle mall. Looks colorful and cheerful.

This restaurant is always full-house on weekend. Good sign coz it means people are doing well and can afford pricey meals😂

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

Something new coming up.....

Not really keen on such drinks....just curious only.

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

Had char kuey tiao and siu mai in Nam Heong. Total bill came to RM28.15 after service charge and tax.

The prawns are not peeled.

Sunny side up egg is given by default....Taste OK with lots of fish cake slices. No cockles which is good (coz I dislike cockles).

Will order this again in the future.

Tan Hotpot @ Pinnacle Mall

Tried the newly opened Tan Hotpot which is now taking over the previous Foloso spot.

Ordered a chicken hotpot and requested for the least spicy. It came in a sizzling claypot like this.

Served with a bottomless Chinese tea or longan winter melon drink. I prefer Chinese tea coz i dislike sweet drink.

Rice and cucumber in chili flakes are included with the combo. After done with the meal, herbal jelly as dessert to tone down the 'heat'.

Total bill is RM26.65 nett

[Below] What's going on?

Does it bring back memories of social distancing during the COVID19 pandemic days?

[Below] Watson's store to open in December....That spot was previously occupied by Gyomu.

Half an hour later....the chairs arrangement changed....

So, those chairs are for the carrom competition😃

Takeaway/Delivery meals in Barbados

[Throwback November 2023]

(Below) This was from a food truck nearby Rockley beach...some sort of Caribbean style rice with corns, beans, chicken cutlets (if I remember correctly) with some ranch sauce. 

Then during the workday, a local colleague offered to order us lunch - jerk chicken which came with fries.

Jerk chicken is actually grilled chicken...it would taste better if there's some salads or greens to go with it. I believe the restaurant has ala-carte salads, but it wasn't me who do the ordering, so I shall not ask too much😂

On another day, I had the food delivery via HopScotch.

Ordered a kimchi with chicken teriyaki rice from a Korean restaurant.

Taste OK, like those dosirak/bento dish that you can get in KL.

TK Bakery 20% Off

After reading Mun's post about TK Bakery 20% discount, i went there to get some egg tarts and a walnut cake.

My purchase: 2 lard egg tarts, 1 butter egg tart, 1 walnut choc chip cake.

*the onigiri is bought from next door 7-11 store

yay....another 20% off if you keep the receipt for the next purchase! Valid till next month.

They usually provide plastic bag but on this special promotion day they gave this paper bag instead.

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

McD green curry fish burger set meal with add on 3 pieces of chicken tenders (add on RM 9.90), hence total bill is RM26.85nett

Trying this out of curiousity....tastes so-so only with very mild green curry taste.

Hakshan

Went to try out Hakshan, a newly opened Hakka food restaurant in the neighbourhood.

During the first few weeks of opening, this place was mostly occupied during the weekend lunch and evening.

On my first visit, I went in the evening, and their Hakka luicha (thunder tea rice) was sold out, hence I had Hakka braised pork rice. The pork was quite fatty....it was just so-so....

I try my luck on the next day, this time I went earlier....and the luicha was available....yay!

The rice was served in a tray with the luicha soup and a small saucer of anchovies...

Despite the variety of ingredients on the plate...I still find it lacking 'ummpphh'.

The Foloso's luicha tastes better than them coz it has cashew nuts instead of peanuts and the soup is thicker.

Sadly Foloso has closed down, and the premise is now replaced with a hotpot restaurant.

The bill came to RM19.80nett after deduction discount from membership.

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

The so-called Hainanese chicken chop from BrewMaster....

I like their Bolognaise sauce, it feels like eating Bolognaise pasta without the pasta. I dip the fries on the sauce instead.

RM19.50nett with ice lemon tea.

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

Bulgogi jjungsik from Midam Korean BBQ restaurant. It was served with 6 banchans and a jar of barley tea. Quite worth it for RM24.20nett.
