myElephant is located in the opposite block from 6 to 10. The place is very cozy and they serve healthy authentic Thai food.

Pandan Cooler

We ordered Pandan Cooler (RM3/glass). Very refreshing...pandan leaves (pine screw) boiled in water and served with some black seeds (don't know what it's called).

Seafood Tom Ka

The seafood tom ka is great. The soup is chock full with mushrooms, galangal, lemongrass, tomatoes and coriander. Semi sweet, cooked with a touch of coconut milk, one sip and we were hooked..."star" dish of the night.

Mixed Greens

Cannot say the same about the mix greens though.

Hom Malee + Brown Rice

Dinner is served with Jasmine Rice (Hom Malee) + Brown Rice (RM3/pax). Very healthy.
 
Total bill for the night came up to RM50.00. We will definitely come back and maybe with a bigger group so that we can try our more dishes.

TGI Friday's Malaysia

TGI Friday's Malaysia is a Western food chain in Malaysia and best known for its relaxing atmosphere where families and individuals can have a good time and experience. For Ryan's 14th birthday, he chose to celebrate at TGIF Sunway Pyramids.

We start with main course as the serving in TGIF is hugh. Ghee and I tried their new menu, American Taste Tour.

Chicago Braised Short Ribs

Ghee ordered Chicago Braised Short Ribs. It is served with roasted garlic mashed potatoes, bell pepper, french beans and broccoli. The short ribs were very tender but it was not something that I would recommend or reorder the next time I visit TGIF.

Los Angeles Almond Chicken Salad

My Los Angeles Almond Chicken salad is also not something that I would recommend as the crispy almond-crusted chicken taste like compact saw dust.

New York Strip

Randy ordered New York Strip. Look appertising but I dare not try as Randy ordered his meat rare. I cannot stand to see the red meat in its rare state.

Key West Whitefish

Poh Poh ordered Key West Whitefish, roasted mild whitefish topped with a sparkling citrus splash, served with seasonal vegetables and herb rice. Poh Poh seems to enjoyed her meal. Must be good.

Jack Daniel's Chicken

Ryan ordered Jack Daniel's® Chicken, juicy chicken breasts basted in a sweet savory glaze, served with seasonal vegetables, cheddar cheese mashed potatoes and the original Jack Daniel's® sauce.

Chocolate Oreo Mint Crunch
and Snickers Treat

We had a good time despite the average tasting food . Ryan was asked to stand on the chair and use the ketchup bottle as his mike to make a speech and the waiters sang for him.

He was also given a complementary piece of chocolate cake and he gets to try out two petite desserts, Chocolate Oreo Mint Crunch and Snickers Treat, scratch and win prizes from the two American Taste Tour meal that Ghee and I ordered.

Restorant Chee Xiang

Restaurant Chee Xiang
No 205 Main Road Kanan, Batu 11
Jalan Kampong Baru, Cheras
43200 Kajang, Selangor
TEL: 6019 3111390


On the way back from Kajang, we stopped for lunch at this restaurant. According to my colleagues, they have extended the restaurant from a small shack. They are located along the main road in Batu 11 and this is my first time here.

We ordered a plate of char siew, roast duck and blanched bean sprouts.

Char Siew

The char siew is half lean and half fatty meat. Not too sweet and it melts in the mouth. They give us a bowl of the char siew sauce which is great with rice. I totally agree with my colleagues who have come here many times that this place has the BEST char siew.

Roast Duck

The roast duck is not too fatty and not too tough. Yummy. The bean sprouts are short and very crunchy.

Bean Sprout

Lunch was super delicious and the total bill came up to RM73.00 for our party of seven including drinks (Chinese tea).

Will definitely come back for more char siew :)

Ngau Yok Hor

Dry Pan Mee

Tiam Fatt like any other Chinese restaurant, sells Tai Chow regulars like Hokkien mee, Wat Tan Hor, Ngau Yok Hor and ala carte vegetable, meat and seafood dishes. Outside the restaurant, they sell Chao Zhou yee mee and the pan mee (only available until 2.30pm). The other 2 stalls outside the restaurant sells the best yam cake and char kuay teow in town. You need to go early if you want the yam cake as usually by lunch time, it's sold out.

We patronize this restuarant for lunch and most time, we either order the tai chow or order char kuay teow or pan mee from the stalls outside. Today, we decided to try out their ala carte dishes. For our party of three, we ordered steam fei chow fish Teow Chew style, long beans with roast pork and steam eggs.

Steam Fei Chow

The steam fei chow Teow Chew style is really good. The fei chow fish does not have muddy smell. It is steamed with tofu, the right amount of ham choy, tomato, lean meat and topped with Chinese parsley. The gravy is great with white rice.

Long Beans with Roast Pork

 The long beans are fried with onions, carrot and roast pork. Yummy.

Steam Eggs

The steam egg is very smooth. Great meal and our total bill came up to RM53.00 including drinks.

Their Hokkien mee is worth a try though. Fragrant, oily and doused in a generous portion of soy sauce, it has been touted as Melawati’s finest Hokkien mee. Those who love sinful, crispy fried pork lard will be happy to know that the dish comes complete with it.

We ordered Siam Fried Rice and Nyonya Ice Kacang.

 

Siam Fried Rice



The Siam fried rice is tasty and the portion is really big. It served with deep fried chicken fillet and some cucumber slices. Each plate cost RM5.90.

Radish and Carrot Soup

We were also given a bowl each, free radish and carrot soup. I like the soup. It's sweet (cheng thim) but not like those that's added with lots of MSG.

Nyonya Ice Kacang

The nyonya ice kacang is very refreshing. It's shaved ice with peanuts, cincau, coco-de-nata, red beans, sweet corns and cendol. Ho Chiak!

Har Mee

Loh Cham Th'ng

Lim Mee Yoke SS2 Chow Yang is famous for their Har Mee but there are many stalls selling great food in this coffee shop. If you are in this coffee shop do try out their...


Char Kuay Teow

Char Kuay Teow...the stall owner has a funny way of telling his customers when he is taking his break. If you see him drinking his stout, that means he is not frying anymore even if you beg him to :(

Curry Mee

Curry Mee...the lady who sells curry me also sells asam laksa.

Konlow Chee Yok Fun

Chee Yok Fun Soup

Chee Yok Fun...I like the konlow (dry) version of chee yok fun. It comes with a separate bowl of soup, minced pork, fuchok, pork ball, pork liver and some vegetable.

Daidomon does not look like a big restaurant from the outside but once inside, we were surprised to see how large the place is. It occupies a floor space of 7200sf with 7 inter-connected VIP rooms for private functions and can easily accommodate up to 300 pax at any one time. 

Chicken Teriyaki Set

Daidomon specializes in yakiniku (grilled meat) buffet but we did not go for the BBQ as it's lunch time and too rush for us. We ordered the set meals, shake teriyaki set and chicken teriyaki set. Later we found out that they also have buffet lunch which looks good but it was too late to cancel our order for the set lunch.

The set meal comes with refillable green tea, pickles, soup, tofu, salad, rice and fruits.

Will return one day to try the BBQ buffet.
