Restoran Kar Hiong @ Subang SS18

I often write down a phoodie wishlist, places to go, places to try if I happened to see any outlets or reviews that attract my attention. This restaurant in Subang was one of them. I think one of my friend mentioned this place to me, and I sought for it. Located facing the mainroad of Subang, this restaurant is very easy to locate. They have two shops, within the same row.

My family and I reached the restaurant around 8pm and some of their recommended dishes had sold out, included the stir fried fern (paku vege), and sting ray. So we opted for other choices as below. Unfortunately, I lost the bill that I usually keep for the price to write blog.

Very homey type of phood here in Kar Hiong and nice. And it's not pricey. I can't remember exactly how much, but it's considered cheap! Worth trying. Have to go again much earlier to have their sting ray and paku vege.

Beef Noodles @ Soo Kee Mee, Restoran Sun Huat Kee Taman Lucky Bangsar 大树头苏记牛肉河 (Now Permanently Closed)

Soo Kee has always been famed for their fried noodles, having their main shop at Jalan Imbi area.

As for me, my family and I always visit their youngest son Uncle Thompson's shop here in Taman Lucky, Bangsar. He used to open a stall in Paramount but now shifted here and have a stall inside Restoran Sun Huat Kee, Taman Lucky Bangsar.

Beef noodles, fresh waterprawn sang mee, black pepper udon, fried meehoon, stewed pork noodles etc... But his main recommended dish is the beef noodles and sang har noodle. Sang har noodle can be quite pricey because of the price of the prawns, huge waterprawns.

Partly it's because Uncle Thompson is our family friend, but otherwise, I still prefer his beef noodles than others that I have tasted so far. The beef is so tender and the gravy oh so good! But both the noodles are quite salty, the gravy is salty because the kuey teow is bland, but the sang har mee is quite salty so I suggest you can opt to request for less salty if you have a lighter taste bud.

Pricing of the sang har noodle is base on seasonal price whereby other noodles dishes are by per pax pricing, varies from RM9 - RM18.

 They have stir fried seasonal vege too. Subject to availability.

Hakka Phood @ Chan Kee/Chuan Kee 泉记, Jalan Pudu Ulu

One of the few nice Hakka restaurants that I've been to in KL. You can find most Hakka dishes here, Yong Tau Foo, wu tao kao yuk (Braised pork with yam), steamed chicken etc.
 

 

 Clockwise from top left: Half number of steamed 'choi yuen' chicken, yong tau foo, steamed fish in ginger and garlic paste, and stir fried eggplant with snake bean. Yummy yummy!

 I believe this shop has been here for years. Many, many years. By looking at the row of shoplots that it's located at.

Lum Mee & Yong Tau Foo @ Restoran Cozy Corner Taman Yulek, Cheras

All the while, my family and I only go to this shop for lum mee in the afternoon.

I don't know originally how does lum mee should taste like or the texture is, so I wouldn't say if this is the best or delicious or not.

We usually enjoy it on Sundays, I only know that it's available during daytime. Not sure about night time.

Direction:
It is located in Taman Yulek. Or maybe it's called Taman Cheras I'm not very sure.

At Taman Yulek/Taman Cheras, you will pass by 'Mexim Dim Sum' and Public Bank on your left. At the traffic light, go straight, you will see BHP petrol station on your left and CIMB Bank on your right, just go straight until the end of the road and you will see this shop at the right corner.

Chinese New Year dinner @ Pantai Seafood Restaurant

Every year the few of us college mates will try to fit in time to meet during chinese new year. Well, not just cny but as many times as we can during the year before everyone is just too busy with their own life. Though just the four of us but it was a nice get-together.

Ed's treasure. Awesome.

I forgot to snap the salted egg crab! Swt. The bill came up to around RM200 for 5 dishes including the yee sang. Well, it was cny, definitely price will hike up. And through this dinner I vow not to eat shark fin anymore!

Although Pantai's price is not to say cheap, but for the few times that I dine there, service was good. The captain was honest to tell that the crab is very small in size. And she offered to help remove the cork which fell inside the XO. And came to the table a couple of times to check if everything is ok. Ed tried to give her RM10 as personal tips but she declined it. Tapi angpow boleh. XD

Roasted Goose and Duck @ Restoran Wei Kee

I have earlier heard my friend mentioning about this place famous for roasted duck long ago, but have yet to try it until last month. My family and I were intending to go to the crispy siew yuk rice behind Shaw Parade but it was closed for CNY so we switched plan and head to this shop Wei Kee in Pudu area as well famous for their Roasted Geese and Roasted Duck.


It's just a plain, old shop in between a row of shoplots very near to the Pudu morning market which I always call it the Gold Fish street cuz got stalls selling fishes in plastic bags. Lol. It's a shop with no air conditioning so be prepare to sweat on a hot day.

We ordered half nos of Roasted Geese, Char Siew, Siew Yuk, Pork Trotter in Vinegar, and a boiled vege. It was finger licking good for me, but my aunt complained that it's too 'sou' in Chinese saying, too strong the meaty taste. And, embarrassed to say, I didn't know it was geese, I thought it was roasted duck :p

The char siew and siew yuk is just normal, nothing to brag about, but I can finish the whole plate of rice just with the char siew sauce. Yum!

Dim Sum @ Shanghai Restaurant JW Marriott Kuala Lumpur

If you would like to have awesome, juicy, fresh dim sum, here's the place to go. Pricey, but it's an experience you'll never forget. You can't compare this to roadside dim sum stalls of course. Classy yet delicious.

Something different, fried cheong fun. It's yummy!

Very nice siao lung pao, we ordered it again after that.

This was recommended by the server, it's nice but i forgot what's the name =.="

Also recommended by the server, scallop with 'shuit yi'

"malay kuih" with custard filling, too sweet for my liking

I think this is char siew pao la, but they don't call it char siew pao but something else pao :p

Four person came up to around RM180. These were taken on my first visit there, we went for a second visit few months ago :) My parents liked it.

Kedai Makanan Ang Kee, Cheow Yang SS2

I've always been wanting to update this phood blog but somewhat laziness and time doesn't allow me to. No, it's just i chose to do other things rather than updating :p

I've passed by this restaurant many many times in Cheow Yang and saw that it was usually crowded so I vowed to try it someday and I did. This visit was like half a year ago I think :p

It's not a big restaurant, just a one shop lot, with I guess around ten tables only. Nice place for family dinner, chinese style or what we call 'dai chao', dishes served with white rice. Yum! There were 6 of us, so we ordered as below:

Foo Yong Egg Omelette (RM10)

Seems like they're quite famous for their fish dishes as we see most tables ordered fish so we ordered the 'dry assam fish'. I think we ordered tilapia. Forgot. (RM28)

The Four Kings :p "sei dai tin wong" (brinjal, long bean, lady finger, four angled bean) stir fried in belacan (RM10)

House Specialty tofu (silky tofu with mushrooms) (RM12)

Buttermilk mantis prawn (this was recommended in blogs) nice! (RM16)

Long pork ribs (RM16)

Rice was RM1.30 per bowl, we ordered chinese tea (RM5.50). Price is average. I like most of the dishes, but just the assam fish tak cukup oomph, the tofu nothing really special. But in sum all are very yummy with rice indeed.

There are other dishes recommended but yet to try: Lala noodle, steam tofu with egg etc, all sounds yum.
