ManA Frozen Foods - all kinds of balls


First thing you will notice in the 3 tiny table shopfront is the chiller bins. Then only the 3 barstool type of tables inside. Next , you will be curious enough to want to go in because, hey, there are people eating inside.
So you squeeze into this corner and notice the 100 baht menu. The locals are pretty enthusiastic about this and you too will want to give it a try.

Restoran Chaw Choon - Raja Uda ( NH )


While exploring Jalan Raja Uda , I chanced upon this crazy, packed with so many people dimsum place and have been coming back regularly ever since.

Century egg porridge is my favourite




French beans fried with har mai and sambal too.
Crunchy and delicious !

Mall's Cafe, Prangin Mall ( NH )



Originally operating from the popular corner kopitiam on the same floor, today,they have relocated to this new spot .




Like other regulars I was not fooled. Checked out that original shoplot ( two new boy chefs in their place) before heading back here

Sai Toh Lim Restaurant ( NH )


Their advent in this area when it was up and coming sparked off another competitor just behind their shoplot. That operator has since gone on to open another three outlets with a much spruced up look today.

Differing views from various customers who are already have dead set preferences, makes it best for you to come and try it for yourself and see which of the two you actually prefer.



Although they do serve dry hokkien mee, most customers go for the koay teow thn'g.

It is different from the Penang island version because over here they put some fishcake slices as well as minced pork in your soup

Dai Pai Tong Treasures ( NH )



I intially approached this street food sold on almost every corner,with much scepticism but was immediately blown away by the very addictive, eardrum busting, extremely spicy sauce . Yum ! Can't put it down once you start.




Since it was love at first bite, I got adventurous and decided to try out this threesome together.

Curry fishballs, Curry Offal and a variety of fishpaste items without the curry

Tsui Wah Restaurant , Lai Yip Street



Tsui Wah and Shui Wah are 2 different restaurants although they may sound the same.

This is another famous restaurant which I tried for the first time . I loved the food here so much I ended up patronising it every day that I was here on holiday.




As with almost every good, average priced makan place here, again, we had to line up to get in.

Nobody seems to mind the scaffolding.





See ? Packed to the brim.  Full house. Amazing how the staff fits everyone in .






Look at the amount of outlets they have scattered all over Hong Kong, Macau and China.




At first I was a bit miffed that they recommended the Malaysian curry to us.

Feeling rather haughty we went ahead and ordered the beef with rice just to see why it was a bestseller here.

The beef comprised of tender meat,brisket and tendon, while the curry was different but in a good mouthwatering way.

He tried to recall and said that it reminds him of Ayam brand chicken curry.

Frankly, it's mildly hot, builds up slowly and is worth a try at least once.




The instant I sunk my teeth into this chicken, I made up my mind to come here for a daily fix. The skin is so smooth and melt in your mouth silky, it's yellow and I could taste a hint of rock salt on top.

The dips were tasty even the thick soya sauce. The sliced vegies were sweet pickles ( I have eaten something similar in Balakong before) , the rice is fluffy while they change the soup serving everyday.

Delicious !



Bowl of sui kau dumplings. Although quite gigantic and packed with ingredients this was ok only . Didn't feel inspired enough to repeat this on the other times that we came.




He fell head over heels in love with their fishball noodle soup.

And ended up eating this each time I returned for the chicken rice.




Their rich milk tea too is the best.

A lip smacking, satisfying experience just like in the cute picture.



Bill.

Worth every cent.

365km for Ipoh Road Yong Tau Foo - KL ( PF )

A several month long craving for KL yong tau foo,culminated in us embarking on this crazy food pilgrimage.
Rain clouds that loomed menacingly above,proved to be no deterrent.




A quick stop at Dunkin Donuts,Tapah rest stop,for some mmm mmm good,
turkey ham croissant and ice latte shared by 2, refuelled us enough, to continue our journey.
