Tseng’s Kitchen @ Menara Weld

Although I am not working in Menara Weld for close to 2 years now, I still usually go back there to have lunch with the lunch gang. And when recently Sherlin mentioned that there’s this place that serve Pork Burger, I told them that I must give it a try. Tseng’s Kitchen, have been there for quite a while but we never give it a try until a few days ago. Notice that their tagline is No MSG and Non Halal, which explains why there’s Pork Burger! From the outside, it just look like a normal restaurant selling chicken rice, but I was surprised that they serve more than that. So after browsing their menu for a while, we started ordering. Shireen ordered the simplest of all, just some Shanghai Vegetable Rice and 1 piece of Fish Ball. Simple 1 scoop of rice is enough to satisfy her hunger. Me and ChinChin went on to order their set lunch for RM10.80 which consist of either Steamed or Roast Chicken. Do take note that if you want the thigh portion, there’s additional RM1 charged. A plate of Bean Sprouts. 2 pieces of Fish Ball and A selection of either Rice/Noodles or…

Marufuku @ Jaya One

Sometime last week, I was having a training at Jaya One. Was supposed to meet up May for lunch, but somehow she got caught in a conference call so we ended up having to eat on our own. Feeling the need to eat some mee, I ended up here. Marufuku, one of the many eateries in Jaya One. The setup is pretty simple, and patrons are required to order their own selection. After choosing from the menu, what you need to do is just key in your selection on the machine and the order will be printed out. And then, head over to the cashier to make payment. However, this DIY could also be a hinder because when I was having my bowl of udon, I noticed some patrons just walk away after hearing that you have to order themselves via the machine. Anyway, back to my lunch…I selected the House Special Udon which cost RM6. A very simple bowl of udon, with special fish sauce and egg. It does have some similarities with Kin Kin Pan Mee. Even the chili provided looks almost the same. My favourite way of eating it, mix it all up together with the chillies.…

Mama Mia Restaurant & Bistro @ off Jalan Sultan, PJ

Sometime last week, I need to send in my car to the tint shop for warranty as my passenger’s window’s tint is jagged and difficult to see. While my car is being re-tint, I’ve met up May for lunch around the area. Mama Mia, is located on the same row as Poh Kong and Standard Charter Bank in State and May had mentioned that the place is good and cheap for lunch. The menu is a combination of Chinese and Western food and price range from RM8 to RM20 depending on selection. A bistro and Hong Kong Char Chan Teng setup. Upon recommendation from May, I ordered the Fried Mee Suah. There’s a lot of ‘Wok Hei’ in this dish and I like the Mee Suah texture. Despite being RM9.50, it’s packed with loads of ingredients like prawn, fish slice and fish paste. May wanted to be a vegetarian for a day, so she ordered the Fried Mee with Mushroom which turn out pretty well as well. The price is consider fair, and I don’t mind paying them a visit when I’m around the area. Mama Mia Restaurant & Bistro No 8-10 Jalan 52/4 Petaling Jaya Tel : 03-7960 3985

Secret Garden by Passion Road @ Lorong Yap Kwan Seng

When I was driving back home yesterday, I texted my lunch gang to ask them for lunch since it’s Good Friday today. When they asked me where we are heading for lunch, I told them it’s a secret. The Secret Garden by Passion Road is a colonial bungalow located at Lorong Yap Kwan Seng that has been tastefully turned into an exclusive venue for dining and private functions. The interior is full of Balinese themed decorations. While the exterior or the garden is themed very Victorian-like and white, which I think there’s where the Secret Garden name comes from. The lunch set here ranges from RM10 to RM20 along with drinks and dessert. The selection will be depending on the day that you dine at this place.a Like us, the available choices for today is either Ginger Chicken served with Steamed Rice or Penang Assam Laksa (RM10/set). The Penang Assam Laksa according to Kel and Sherlin was not umph enough and lack the distinctive flavour of the actual Assam Laksa. They also did mentioned that it was not spicy enough. A few of us ordered the Ginger Chicken with Steamed Rice and it turn out pretty good. The chicken is…

Pork Noodles @ Sun Seng Restaurant

I’ve been working at my new place for over 6 months and one of my most frequent lunch spot is just a coffee shop a few units away. There’s nothing fancy about the coffee shop, there’s only 3 stalls that operates in the morning. One selling Curry Laksa & Fish Ball Soup, one selling Chicken Rice and the last one selling Pork Noodles. Aside from Pork Noodles, they do have Pan Mee, Yee Mee and Fish Head Noodles (on Sundays) too. It’s normally the stall that I would order from. As I need to drop by last Saturday for a bit of work, I brought May and Kayden for breakfast here. Here’s Kayden, already sweating after 5 minutes sitting in the coffee shop. Yee Mee Soup with Pork! I find that the soup is very tasty and most of the meat are very well marinated. Also included are pork balls (the round and square type), pork minced, liver and intestines (depending on preference). I would normally avoid the innards because of my gout, just that on this particular day, I’ve forgotten to request it to be removed. Kayden busy feeding himself. A bowl of this cost around RM4-5 (depending on…

KimchiHaru @ Jaya One, PJ

I have to admit, I have never really like Korean food. Mainly because of the misconception that is being associated with it. When someone invite me for Korean food, somehow the first thing that comes to mind would be BBQ. While the BBQ meals are ok, the after effect of smelling like a BBQ pit ourselves is rather a turn off. Enter KimchiHaru, a very small shop located at Jaya One that serves contemporary Korean cuisine. I have passed by the shop numerous times when I was working at Jaya One, but never have I wanted to give it a try, until I read what KYSpeaks.com review. As mentioned earlier, the place is not big so be there early for lunch or expect to wait about 15 mins to get a seat. There’s a weekday special menu for selected items. Standard Chartered Cardmembers are eligible for 15% off from the food bill. Feeling rather hungry that day, we opt for a slightly higher price meals. Appetizers that comes before our mail meal. Salad and Kimchi. Original Topokki (RM11), my favourite Korean delicacy now after tasting it for the 1st time in Feng Chia Market, Taiwan. It’s basically…

The Original Soong Kee Beef Noodles @ Jalan Silang, KL

Remember my post about Lot 10 Hutong? Residing there is of course some of the famous eateries around KL and one of it is Soong Kee. If you understand Chinese, it’s written there that the stall is actually the 2nd generation, so the original 1st generation of Soong Kee is actually located here. Located at Jalan Tun H.S. Lee, this place is always pack during lunch crowd. I’ve actually taken this photo earlier because on this day, there’s no single table available so I have to come another day. On my 2nd try, it’s still pretty pack but I managed to share a table with an uncle. So if any of you reading this wants to head over, do it earlier before lunch or after lunch. I was told that the opening hours was until at night too, so that might be a better time. The chili sauce is a must to dip into the bouncy beef ball. I ordered a ‘Big’ bowl of Beef Noodle, which consists of a bowl of mee with loads of minced meat and beef balls. The bowl of mee at its full glory. The minced beef is very flavourful. Notice that the mee that…

Hokkien Mee @ Kim Lian Kee, Petaling Street

I remember during my younger days (as in very very young), one of my family favourite thing to do is SUPPER. So in a way, that’s why I’m what I’m today, weighing more than 90 kilos. Of course, that aside, those late night suppers had of course plays a big part in what I like to eat today. Located at the busy junction at Petaling Street is Restoran Kam Lian Kee, which is quite famous for it’s Hokkien Mee. So one fine day, I decided to head over for lunch since it’s just a stone throw away from my office. It’s my lucky day because most of the time, the place is always packed. Aside from the ‘Dai Chow’, they also serve Mixed Rice. The view from where I’m seated. Fake LVs, Guccis and more. It’s not really Chinatown anymore because the place is literally run by foreigners. A must have with each Hokkien Mee, Sambal Belacan! Any places that leave a mug of these for you is deemed good for me! I have to wait for a good 10 minutes before I can sink my teeth to this. Pardon the picture quality because it’s from my BB. It actually…

Coke Fried Rice @ Rabil Stall, Jalan Tun H.S. Lee

I have eaten quite a number of fried rice before, from the north, like the Nasi Goreng Pattaya to the east coast like Nasi Goreng Kampung and some with a dash of western influence like the Nasi Goreng USA, but when I was told that there’s this stall that’s near my office that serve Coke Fried Rice, I of course thought that it was a joke. I’ve passed by this stall a few times on my way to Masjid Jamed LRT station but I never give it much of a thought because I thought that the bottle of Coke/Pepsi is surely some soya sauce/thai fish sauce. So last week, not having any home cooked lunch, I decided to venture here to give it a try, because a friend actually says that this place is always packed during lunch time and you might wait an hour to wait for your plate of fried rice. The owner of the stall is busy frying the rice while the Malay lady is busy on her bluetooth taking orders. I sat down and was asked what I want. So I told the lady that I want a plate of Fried Rice, pedas (spicy) with Ayam…
