Fried Lin Ko, Weng Hing (KL)
Fried Nin gao (Lin Ko), Goreng pisang, and Spring rolls outside Weng Hing in the Jalan Imbi - Jalan Barat corner. Very pricey, at 70 cents - RM$1.20 per piece, but so very good ... The Goreng Pisang was OK, the Spring Rolls really good, and the Lin Koh ... OUT OF THIS WORLD! When you are there, check out the queue of cars who order dozens of goodies from this little stall, from the comfort of their cars ... Sort of a Drive-Thru!
Pork Noodles, Weng Hing at Imbi, KL
Weng Hing Coffee Shop - 183, Jalan Imbi, 55100 Kuala Lumpur
It is clear that this establishment, Weng Hing, has been around for yonks. It has that old feel to it, and exudes charm as well as arrogance! Mind you, the service was great, and with a smile (The Pork Ball seller's crew)!
It is located on the corner of Jalan Barat and Jalan Imbi in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Its 'great' sitting outside Weng Hing, where one can watch the cars zoom round the corners, taxis honking, and pedestrians risking their lives walking across the road! There is parking across the road in a metered parking area, but you would probably stand a better chance of winning the lottery then finding a parking lot there. I must have won the lottery :-)
This place is reputedly famous for its Char Kuey Teow and Pork Ball Noodles. Other Bloggers have noted that the CKT is nothing to shout about (Unlike Robert's at Section 17 which I just reviewed!), so I had the WORLD FAMOUS Pork Ball Noodles. It certainly did not dissapoint, INCREDIBLE! I loved the soup, which was peppery and very tasty, and complemented the excellent pork balls. I had this with the kuay teow which was of the slightly-sticky variety, and not too smooth, but it seemed to 'work'. Yummy! The minced pork sauce over the noodles was excellent. However, the portions are rather small, and at RM$5 a bowl, pricey, but hey, you get what you pay for!

Char Kuay Teow, Roberts PJ
21st March 2007
Roberts Char Kuay Teow is located at Say Huat Coffee Shop, Section 17 (Petaling Jaya)
It certainly wasn't cheap at RM$6 for 'extra liao' (More chinese sausage, and succulent prawns!) , but it was exquisite! Certainly matches up to the best Penang has to offer, and located much closer to home. Fantastic!
Just wish I could have a Blind Taste Test against these old favourites from Penang ...

Food Foundry at Section 17, PJ

Tel: 03 - 7955 3885
Opening: Mon-Fri 10.30 am - 9 pm & Sat-Sun 9 am - 11pm
A well blogged establishment, and this was personally recommended by a friend as well, so I thought I'd give it a try ... it was yum! Reasonable prices, RM $55 for all this food ... Caesar salad (Yummy) , 4 tapas dishes (Green Curry Mussels - Good, Eggplants with Spicy Sauce - Very good, Sauteed Button Mushroom - Good, Grilled Prawn with Spicy Salsa Sauce - OK), drinks, and ...
On to a description of the Blog-made-famous Mille Crepe Cake that is served by the Food Foundry... Superb! It certainly deserves the raving that all the Bloggers seem to go on about :-) It is made up of fresh cream and crepes, and is tasty yet not too sweet, the way I like it! There are vanilla, ocha, chocolate variations, but I went for vanilla as it was recommended by the excellent staff. Go on, TRY IT!
Service was impeccable, and I liked the humble-nature of the place.

Gao Ren Guan, Puchong Jaya
18th March 2007
Location: Opposite IOI Mall in Bandar Puchong Jaya, where there are new buildings including Maybank. As you drive along, you will first see HSBC, there is no entrance on this square of shops, the next square is where you enter. Gao Ren Guan is located just opposite 'Leong Ah' yong tau foo, and is on the same row as 'Taiping Lang'.
It seems the strange name originates from ... "Serves Gao Chow (meaning people from the Gao province somewhere part of Guandong in China) dishes".
Pork dominates the menu, but this is not surprising when the main marketing paraphernalia is that of an old man cooking and slicing pork over a wood fire stove.
Ordered the Fried Rice with Anchovies (Ikan Bilis) which was really good, as well as the Red Wine Pork (yummy too!), Tofu (So-so) and Spare Ribs Curry (Good too!).
Must next try their other signature dishes; Fried tofu stuffed with minced meat (sold out!), chopped "ham choy" or salty preserved vegetable, bitter gourd stuffed with minced pork and steamed salted kampung chicken.
Overall, nice environment, OK food with some good stuff and some so-so stuff, and worthy of a return visit!

O&S breakies, PJ
18th March 2007
Yummy! Everything's yummy here! Except the Barley on this particular day. Strange. The Soya Cincau was also rather diluted on the day! Anyway, here is a list of the HOT stuff available at this venerable place ...
1) Kai See Hor Fun (Shredded chicken kuay-teow in soup) = Excellent! Best I have had outside of Ipoh
2) Yong Tau Foo = Damn yummy!
3) Chee Cheong Fun = Sweet sauce and prawn bits / fried onions so yum!
Other amazing stuff that I didn't manage to have this breakfast time include ... Goreng Pisang, Indian Rojak by a Chinese aunty, Prawn Mee, Chicken Rice, Wan Tan Mee et al

17th March 2007
An 'honest' meal at under 5 bucks, for 2 plates of noodles, 2 bowls of 'tong-sui' (Red bean dessert), some fishballs and foo-pay fishcakes. Didn't know one could get food so cheap these days!

Chin Chinho Steamboat, Bukit Tinggi (Klang)
Chin Chinho Seafood Steamboat
Bukit Tinggi, Klang
16th March 2007
Owner claims that the ingredients are sourced from Pulau Ketam, and I believe him! Good fishballs, and fish-noodles, nice broth in the steamboat, and pretty decent chilli-sauce too. Not quite Koka's standard (Chilli), but great value nevertheless at RM$12.50 per head. We ordered for 2 heads, and there were 3 of us!
Even went for 'Apam' or 'Apong' (Depends who you ask!) in Klang Jaya, which is an old housing estate located opposite Bukit Tinggi ... RM$1 each. Tip! Don't ta-pow home, it gets soggy. Could imagine HOW GOOD it would have tasted if I had eaten it there!

Sassorosso, Kuala Lumpur
SASSOROSSO, 9 Lorong Yap Kwan Seng, Kuala Lumpur
Tel: 03-2166 6428
Business Hours: 12pm - 12am (Open every day)
Selection of wine - Sta Digna Merlot and Prosecco (Sparkling white) ... It was OK!
Choice of starter - Mixed Antipasti ... Great value at RM$48, so much food! It was pretty good!
And, for the mains - Black cod (RM$48) which was over-cooked ... and Ossobucco (Lamb, RM$44) which was OK, but better at Sheraton Imperial's Villa Danielli!
The damage? RM$210 ... OK food, great service, stunning venue.
The Star, 16th Feb : " Opened about three weeks ago, this restaurant in a bungalow at Lorong Yap Kwan Seng offers authentic Italian food from the country's various regions, tinged with a modern twist. Sassorosso’s executive chef-cum-director Andrea Zanella said he hoped to educate his customers on Italian food through his dishes. Zanella, who is from Vicenza, a region sandwiched between Verona and Venice, wants peole here to know that Italian food is not all ‘heavy’."
The Malay Mail, 15th March ... " Located in a rather quiet corner of Jalan Yap Kwan Seng, Sassorosso is a fully refurbished old-style colonial bungalow that has been done up with elegant taste.The restaurant seats around 50+ people, but outside, it seats around 70.Given the simply beautiful view as well as the smells from the traditional oven outside, this is where you will want to sit."

So-so ... Chee cheong fun.

The Ivy, Heritage Row ... KL
Saturday dinner, 10th March 2007
The Ivy @ Asian Heritage Row
11-09 Heritage House,
33 Jalan Yap Ah Shak,
50300 Kuala Lumpur
Rib-eye Steak was so-so (I much prefer Jakes), the lamb was good, the desserts were also OK (Bread and Butter pudding, and Creme Brulee). But I did like the english-charm of the place!
The Malay Mail describes this place, "With chequered floors and leather chairs, entering Ivy is like walking into a dapper gentlemen’s sitting room. Do not be fooled though, because when the music gets going, you’ll be hard pressed not to dance the night away to sing-out-loud tunes. Upstairs is a dining area that serves classic English food such as Yorkshire pudding, fish and chips and the mighty treacle sponge and custard.

A little place in Salak South

A visit to customer's warehouse in Cheras led to a lunch in between Salak South and Jalan Chan Sow Lin ... a little place under a zinc roof (Which is cooled by a watering system comprising of pipes, to cool the place down ... hey, it works!), which is yummy!
We had Stir fried Yau Mak, Steamed chicken (Kampung I think!), Special tofu, and excellent Soya-sauce Fried Ma-Yau Fish. Only landmark is that it is near the '50 cents toll'!

Teochew Porridge ... Cheras, KL
4th March 2007
A night of gluttony ... following the 1 hour track to Cheras, in the chinesey region of KL ... I had both chee cheong fun, AND teochew porridge too. Great 'smoooooth' porridge, with some yummy complementary dishes, such as minced pork, sauteed potatoes in sauce, piggy bits (!!), beans, and tofu too! Excellent!
I like this write up from another Blogger's blog on http://cheesykitty.blogspot.com ... "I used to stay in Taman Desa Aman and one of my fav place to eat was at the Teow Chew Porridge Stall in front of the Desa Aman flats. Ever since we moved (like ages ago) we still go back once in a while. Around end of last year, they moved into a corner shop lot, still at the Desa Aman Flats location. I guess they are doing really well, from a small stall to a huge corner shop lot. They even have plaster ceiling, marble tables and a cctv at every corner now!! :D"
