Mix BKT

Teo Chew Bak Kut Teh is my brother-in-law's favorite place for brunch after Sunday church service. 

Their soup is not as thick as the ones in Klang but taste wise, it's on par. All the meats are cook till very tender. Clay pots are use to ensure the bak kut teh is warm through out the entire meal.

Kiam Chai

Apart from Bak Kut Teh, they also offer braised pork, braised trotter, vinegar pork, vinegar trotter, preserved salted vegetable (kiam chai) and the usuals; yau char kuey, tau pok and yau choy.

They also offer plain rice, "yau fun" (oil rice) and yam rice to go with their BKT. Not many places offer yam rice with BKT these days.

We had a pot of mix BKT (for 3 person), one portion of braised pork, one bowl of tau pok, one bowl of "kiam chai" and 2 bowls of "yau char kuey". Our total bill was RM79.00 including soft drinks and 8 bowls of oil rice.

Service was not so good today as they may be short-handed during Chinese New Year period.

We decided to have an early Chinese New Year reunion dinner at Perlama Seafood Restaurant as my sister-in-law and her hubby are back in KL. This place is highly recommended by my brother-in-law, Randy and his wife, Grace.

This year's CNY reunion dinner is different from the other years. We did not go for the traditional Chinese New Year menu but opt for seafood dishes. We ordered 3 different types of crabs:

Sweet and Sour Crab

Sweet and sour crab. We had fried buns to go with it. Yummy.

Salted Egg Crab

Salted egg crab. Everyone's favorite crab dish for the night.

Black Pepper Crab

Black pepper crab. This dish is "so so" only.
 
To go with rice, we had:

Stir Fried Tee Hwang Mew

Stir Fried "Tee Huang Mew". This dish is really delicious. Very crunchy and smooth.

Assam Stingray

Assam Stingray. Like this dish as the stingray is really fresh. The sauce is with the right level of sourness.

Steam Pomfret

We ordered steam pomfret for my hubby and Michael who are not supposed to take the stingray because of their recent operations.

However, they hardly touch this dish and I ended eating most of it. Not complaining as the pomfret is very fresh and the sauce is great with rice.

Nestum Mantis Prawns

Nestum Mantis Prawns...Ryan's favorite dish. I like it too especially the Nestum and the curry leaves. Great with rice.

Steam Lala

Steam Lala...this dish must be taken while it's hot. I think it's cooked with wine.

Deep Fried Pork Knuckle

Deep Fried Pork Knuckle. The meat is very tender. The dipping is nice but I would prefer it with plum sauce.

Tofu with Special Sauce

Tofu with special sauce. The topping is very delicious. Great with rice and porridge too.



Fried Tang Hoon

For those who did not want rice, Grace ordered fried "Tang Hoon". I did not try the fried "Tang Hoon" as I was really full.

Our total bill came up to RM320 (our party is 13 pax) including drinks (young coconuts and soft drink). We will definitely come back as their seafoods are fresh and very tasty. We will also come earlier so that we can enjoy the riverside view and watch the sunset.

Restaurant Kavitha's & Curry House in Petaling Garden is a favourite banana leaf joint for many and for me too when I was with J&J.

Banana Leaf Rice

Like many other traditional South Indian eateries, it gives each customer part of a banana leaf and serves three or four vegetable dishes. The condiments are then added and these include an ikan bilis sambal, lemon acar, deep-fried bitter gourd and fried salted chili. To these are added rice and a choice of curries....dhal, chicken, fish or salted fish.

Chicken

To this basic fare, you can add an array of curries (ranging from lamb tripe to fish roe, fish head to mutton rendang) and fried seafood and chicken.

Mutton

After shopping with sister and her kids, we dropped in at Kavitha's for a late lunch.

Fried Chicken

We ordered the ready cooked chicken and mutton curry, freshly fried fish (2 different types of fish) and chicken.

My nephew tried rasam and likes the drink. I've never learn to acquire the taste though.

Rasam

The total bill for our party of 6 came up to RM64.00 including ice lemon tea. Very satisfying meal as I've not eaten at Kavitha's for a long time.

The Indonesian/Malay lady who used to serve us when I patronized Kavitha's during my J&J days is still working there. Service was excellence.

Chong Fatt Seafood Restaurant - Setapak

Today, Fiona and Raymond bought me farewell lunch at Chong Fatt Seafood Restaurant. According to Fiona and Raymond, the food here is very good and I totally agree with them. 

We leave the ordering of food to Fiona as she frequently patronize the restaurant. We had the following dishes with white rice:

Venison with Pickled Vegetable

Venison with pickled mustard (hum choy)...the venison meat is very tender and the hum choy is not salty. Great combination.

Pork Knuckle

Yun Thai (pork knuckle) with siew pak choy and mushroom. The meat is very tender and the sauce is great with rice. Yum Yum.

Bamboo Pit with Mushroom

Bamboo pit with enoki mushroom, shitake mushroom and broccoli. A Cantonese dish?

Soya Bean curd with Special Sauce

Soya bean curd with special sauce. The bean curd is deep fried but it's soft and smooth inside. The topping is very fragrant and crunchy. Another great dish with rice.

The restaurant give free fresh fruit for dessert. Thanks Fiona/Raymond. This is another great meal with good company. I'm sure we will be back to try their other exotic dishes and seafood :)

Bumbu Desa - KLCC

Bumbu Desa the authentic Indonesian restaurant that is tantalising Malaysia, is on the fourth floor of Suria KLCC. Their menu, with its traditional Indonesian recipes, is set to tickle the taste buds with spice appeal.

A selection from the different dishes on display can be made, as large or small as you wish. Haha..it's not a buffet spread!

White Rice

My team and I were at Bumbu Desa KLCC for my farewell lunch. Yes, I'm leaving on Feb 18 to pursue other opportunities. Oyah ordered a number of dishes and all the dishes taste great.

We had rice, served in a very traditional aluminium pot which reminds me of my kampung childhood days. To go with rice we had:

Cumi Goreng

Cumi Goreng (deep-fried squid marinated in turmeric paste). Nice and fragrant.

Rendang Daging

Rendang Daging (a traditional Minangkabau dish)...slow cooked and tenderized beef in coconut milk and spices.

Ayam Pok

Ayam Pop (a Padang dish)...a dual process skinless chicken dish (steamed and then deep fried).

Ayam Bakar (a Sundanese dish)...grilled marinated chicken with sweet soya sauce. This dish came last and I did not manage to snap a picture of it (too busy eating) but trust me, it is very delicious.

Gulai Ayam

Gulai Ayam ( a Padang dish)...yellow chicken curry. Looks like ordinary curry but the taste is heavenly. Full of flavour.

Fried Talapia

Marinated deep fried talapia with special sauce. Crispy and crusty and yet juicy!

Sambal

The star of the day is the "sambal". It's spicy but gives a special kick.

Even their drinks are special. I had orange coconut, a freshly squeezed orange drink mixed with young coconut flesh. My first time having such drink. They also serve the usual avocado drink.

Mei Keng Fatt Seafood - Ampang

Mei Keng Fatt Seafood located at 1 Lorong Awan 6, Kuala Ampang, 68000 Ampang, Selangor is very popular with the locals, expatriates living around the area as well Hong Kong movie stars. They offer a wide array of dishes but their most popular dish is crab.

I've been working in Ulu Kelang for more than 4 years now but today is my first time eating lunch at Mei Keng Fatt. I was told they are very expensive!

We ordered "yee sang", seafood tom yum, squids in lime sauce and "sei tai thin wong" for our party of 3.

Yee Sang

Yusheng , yee sang or yuu sahng (simplified Chinese: 鱼生; pinyin: yúshēng), also known as lo hei (Cantonese for 撈起 or 捞起) is a Teochew-style raw fish salad. It usually consists of strips of raw fish (most commonly salmon), mixed with shredded vegetables and a variety of sauces and condiments, among other ingredients. Yusheng literally means "raw fish" but since "fish (鱼)" is commonly conflated with its homophone "abundance (余)", Yúshēng (鱼生) is interpreted as a homophone for Yúshēng (余升) meaning an increase in abundance. Therefore, yusheng is considered a symbol of abundance, prosperity and vigor.

I love Yee Sang. Can eat it every day, through out Chinese New Year. I'll normally request for less oil and less sweet.

Seafood Tom Yum

When I ordered tom yum seafood, Alvin scolded me and said I was crazy to order Tom Yum in a Chinese seafood restaurant. To our surprise, their tom yum is really delicious. There were prawns, squid, chicken meat and the soup is just right, not too sour nor too spicy.

Squid in Lime Sauce

The squid in lime sauce is really good. The squid is cut into bite sizes, blanched and mixed with lots of lime juice, shallots, finely cut lemon grass and chillies. Very appetising.

Sei Tai Thin Wong

The "sei tai thin wong" is four different type of vegetables (long beans, four angled beans, brinjals and okra) cooked with chili/dried prawn paste.

Lunch at Mei Keng Fatt was not cheap but will come back for their crab dishes one day.

Uno's Heavenly Hazel Nut Cheese Cak

For dessert, we ordered Uno's heavenly hazel nut cheese cake to share. The cake is delicious.
