    Klang Valley: Burger Junkyard, Kota Damansara

     
    Klang Valley: Burger Junkyard, Kota Damansara – Now it makes me wonder that is it burger craze lately? There’s the Kaw Kaw Burger Bakar, Abang Burn Burger, myBurger Lab, and in Penang, Marshall’s Burger which are getting a lot of noises lately and now, another one at Kota Damansara – Burger Junkyard.
    A trend or what? It’s not McDonald’s, or Burger King anymore, nor roadside Ramly burger, it’s about innovation, thick patties, varieties, sauce, fries, queue and interior design.
    Talking to Burger Junkyard, it’s located at The Strand, Kota Damansara and it was my dinner yesterday night with the same group of friends who are working intern for interior design firm at there. It’s getting more meet-ups right now during work time than during school times. Fun! Because after a long day of work, a little chat and get-together and laughter with familiar faces is good.
    Oh dirty rat with number for the burger delivery to your table.
    The Burger Junkyard has a very simple interior design with graffiti art on the wall resembling junkyard. Looking across the menu, obviously it has lesser choices compare to myBurger Lab. There’s no long queue like myBurger Lab and don’t have a person standing there recommending good burger. I asked for recommendation and ordered the Brooklyn Burger (RM15.90) which comes with burger itself and fries. There’s no additional top up for set meal and not much choices for drinks.
    Price is cheaper than myBurger Lab but how about taste? French fries is not as good as myBurger Lab as there’s no killer fried garlic. The patties was thick enough but somehow it’s not as strong and good as myBurger Lab. In my 2 cents, I still prefer myBurger Lab for the taste, the atmosphere and the price. Haha. What do you think? Some say good, some say so-so, I’d say OKOK only.
     
    Side order French Fries. Not really killer fries. HAHA.
    Pineapple Fungi (vegetarian) (RM13.90) – Pineapple, portebello mushroom, onions, homemade aioli.
    Hoola Hoop Hawii (RM14.90) – Lettuce, tomatoes, smoked turkey ham, grilled pineapple, tangy cocktail, dressing.
    Brooklyn Burger (RM15.90) – Choice of chicken, or beef (I picked beef), beef bacon, grilled pineapple, tomato, onions, fried egg, aioli.
    Arvin, me, Quenna, Hooi Pheng, Connie, Henry. Right side looks sad, left side looks happy. HAHA.

  • Klang Valley: 麺屋武蔵 Awesome Menya Musashi Ramen @ Isetan, 1 Utama

    Klang Valley: 麺屋武蔵 Awesome Menya Musashi Ramen @ Isetan, 1 Utama


    Klang Valley: 麺屋武蔵 Awesome Menya Musashi Ramen @ Isetan, 1 Utama – Recently, I am getting in love with ramen, this feeling started ever since my brother brought me to Marutama and Ippudu ramen in Singapore. Now, those ramen restaurants are now available in Malaysia and I found some other good one too, just like this Menya Musashi ramen which origins from Japan!

    Menya Musashi is located in Eat Paradise of Isetan in 1 Utama shopping mall. It’s very easy to find, beside it is just another ramen restaurant (Gantetsu) which some said its nice too! The restaurant does not has very fancy design, it’s a very small restaurant with lots of samurai poster. The name of the restaurant comes from the legendary Edo-era swordsman, Miyamoto Musashi. That’s explain the samurai illustration around this little restaurant.
    Hello Clarice! =)
    It’s a very happy and cheerful atmosphere at there because the staff, the chefs all are shouting at each other, actually greeting you in Japanese. You actually start out at the entrance where you take a look at the menu, then you order, make payment only then seated.
    It’s very easy to order, firstly you choose the type of soup you want, then type of ramen and ingredient and voila, you are done. Other wise, you can pick some side dishes like Gyoza or there’s a nice Chashu Gohan, rice with chashu pork! Yummeh.

    So what I ordered was a bowl of Kuro Ajitama Ramen and a Chashu Gohan. Sky juice was free in the restaurant. Talking about the Kuro Ajitama Ramen, Kuro is the broth which made from special garlic oil and fried shallow and it’s brownish black! To be surprised, the soup tasted very very good, and I even perfected it with some extra fried garlic and their special chili oil. The ramen was springy and the tamago egg was just nicely half-boiled. 2 big pieces of Chashu pork with some bamboo shoots cheered up my dinner for that night.

    Another dish was the Chashu Gohan, a rice filled with sweet chashu pork and lots of welsh onion. This is nice too and it costs only RM9. I added some fried garlic into the rice to add a bit of crunchy-ness to compliment to the chashu and welsh onion.

    Everything was so good, the people, the friendly chefs who always greeting loudly, and shouted like a samurai when making noodles, the ramen, the rice were just great. However, price wise was a bit high as the ramen was RM29. Overall, this is good, and I finished up the soup. Yummeh.

  • Klang Valley: Crispy Siu Yuk & Char Siew Rice, SS2 Wai Sek Kai

    Klang Valley: Crispy Siu Yuk & Char Siew Rice, SS2 Wai Sek Kai

    Klang Valley: Crispy Siu Yuk & Char Siew Rice, SS2 Wai Sek Kai – Now only I know that the SS2 Murni doesn’t open for lunch, they are open for dinner only! I thought that the other outlet of Murni Discovery opens for lunch and this original outlet too. I wanted to eat Claypot Lao Shu Fen for lunch, but ended up at the SS2 Wai Sek Kai.
    There’s not many stalls open for lunch too at this SS2 Wai Sek Kai, but you can find some Mixed Rice stalls, noodle stalls and also this Ah Seng Hainan Chicken Rice Stall. So my lunch was here!
    Opens from lunch till dinner, the stall sells Hainanese Chicken Rice, Char Siew, Siew Yuk, Wan Tan Mee and porridge. Didn’t have much feeling for chicken so it was Char Siew & Siew Yuk and it costs RM5.50 for it. It also comes with a compliment of bitter-gourd soup that soothes the dry plate of rice.
    The Siew Yuk is has crispy skin which is very nice and the BBQ Char Siew is sweet enough but then it’s not overly BBQ-ed which lack a bit of burned taste. The rice on the other hand is oily and OK-good.
    Well, to sum up, this is quite a good stall for Chicken, Char Siew and Siew Yuk rice in SS2. =)

  • Klang Valley: Nasi Lemak Cikgu, Kelana Jaya

    Klang Valley: Nasi Lemak Cikgu, Kelana Jaya

     
    Klang Valley: Nasi Lemak Cikgu, Kelana Jaya – Recently, the restaurants I went have very cute or funny name. The last one was Bird Man now and found another one – Nasi Lemak Cikgu! Cikgu means teacher in Malay and it sounds interesting. ‘Cikgu! Cikgu! Cikgu! Jangan pukul saya cikgu’. LOL.
    My friend Beng Tian brought me there for dinner after work and it’s located somewhere behind Giant Kelana Jaya, the area where it sells a lot of Chinese Muslim food. As the name of the restaurant says, it only sells Nasi Lemak at there, it’s either those in a packet one or a plate of hot Nasi Lemak with side dishes like fried chicken and more. So I ordered one plate with half piece of chicken. It comes with plenty of sambal gravy which is quite tasty and not spicy. The chicken, to be surprised was really crispy and has a good aroma.
     
    Yes, this place is consider one of the good Nasi Lemak in Klang Valley in my opinion. Price? It’s RM7.20 for that plate of Nasi Lemak with half piece of fried chicken and a hot tea, so do the math. =D I asked the person and the boss, the owner is really a ‘Cikgu’ in high school! Cool!
    Next Nasi Lemak to try – Village Park, heard it’s the best? Some said Murni has better fried chicken, what do you think?

  • Klang Valley: Wan Tan Mee @ Shang Yi Fatt Kopitiam, Aman Suria

    Klang Valley: Wan Tan Mee @ Shang Yi Fatt Kopitiam, Aman Suria

    Klang Valley: Wan Tan Mee @ Shang Yi Fatt Kopitiam, Aman Suria (Revisited) – The last time I came to this Shang Yi Fatt Kopitiam was to eat the Curry Wan Tan Mee for lunch. Today, I revisited the kopitiam for lunch again with my colleagues but instead of Curry Wan Tan Mee, I ordered the dry Wan Tan Mee, the standard Wan Tan Mee with soy sauce and real wan tan.
    In addition, I requested for Char Siu & Siu Yok which costed RM6.50 for this plate of noodle. To be surprised, it’s awesomelicious! The springy noodle accompany with sweet BBQ Char Siu and crispy skin Siu Yok is perfect match. The soy sauce is special too, not overly salty but a bit oily. Though, if there’s some Kailan or Choi Sum vegetable, it would be even wonderful.
    Afterall, lunch was satisfied and I will come back again. =)
    UPDATE: The stall has moved.

  • Klang Valley: 鸟人 Bird Man Cafe & Restaurant

    Klang Valley: 鸟人 Bird Man Cafe & Restaurant

     
    Klang Valley: 鸟人 Bird Man Cafe & Restaurant – What a funny name for a restaurant – Bird Man! The person who started the restaurant is really very ‘bird’. So jiao. During high school, I always call those playful and talk cock people as bird man. Haha. Anyway, I have 7+ months left to reside in this big city of Kuala Lumpur, so I have to explore as much as I can including Bird Man.
    Me, Jason and Henry.
    Siyi, Hooi Peng, Quenna, Connie, me, Jason & Henry.
    So, after work, I went to meet up my friends who are interns at another company for dinner at Kota Damansara and they brought me to this Bird Man. At first, I was like ‘What?! Jiao Lang? Bird Man?????’, then I saw it, it’s really a restaurant with a lame name. The owner must be a very bird bird man.
    Grilled Black Pepper Chicken Chiop.
    Shabu-shabu Beef Rice.
    Unagi Rice.
    Ramen with full boiled egg instead of half boiled tamago egg. Hmmmmm….
    My Portugese Cheese Baked Chicken Rice. =(
    Toast with Ice Cream, the only thing that looks good.
    It seems to be tempting with the tagline of ‘contemporary international dining’. The menu does indeed looks interesting ranging from Western to Asian Oriental food and it made me confuse of what to order. From the recommendation of the bird staff, I ordered my self a Portugese Cheese Baked Chicken Rice (RM12.90). Hmm, hmm, hmm, not that nice as I expected. Perhaps it’s not a good cheese and the chicken was just fried chicken. Bad choice for me. I asked my friends how their food taste like and all of them gave me a very neutral answer of OKOK-only.
    So, this Bird Man place is place that I will go for once only. Enjoyed the gather, not bird food. Blahhh. Time to sleep and thinking of where to eat in this coming days. =D Perhaps you can intro some nice food at Kota Damansara to me too?

  • Klang Valley: Seng Kee Famous Claypot Lao Shu Fen, Petaling Street

    Klang Valley: Seng Kee Famous Claypot Lao Shu Fen, Petaling Street

    Klang Valley: Seng Kee Famous Claypot Lao Shu Fen, Petaling Street – I always thought that Petaling Street is a tourist area that don’t really has good food and they are mostly target for tourists which price are high and food at a normal level. But then I am wrong, turned out that Petaling Street has a good food!
    Beng Tian
    Hock Sheng
    Blogger me.
    One of which is the Seng Kee Restaurant (胜记) which is famous for Claypot Lao Shu Fen (沙煲老鼠粉) and Roasted Pork Noodle (Siu Yok Mee 烧肉面). So on last Sunday night, I went to try it out to see how good it is. I ordered one Claypot Lou Shu Fen (RM8 – small), and a plate Siu Yok Mee (RM10 – small). Price wise is OKOK, not very high but the portion is a bit small for 3 person  Haha.
    Siu Yok Mee.
    Claypot Lao Shu Fen.
    Taste wise? The Siu Yok Mee is really good which sweet crispy roasted pork and the noodle used is the same as Wan Tan Mee (生面) with some soy sauce and garlic. I like it. On the other hand, Claypot Lao Shu Fen turned up good too with plentiful of minced meat, but yet I prefer Murni’s Claypot Lao Shu Fen.
    Nevertheless, this is a place that I will come back again. It’s a must eat at Chinatown Petaling Street of Kuala Lumpur. =)

  • Klang Valley: My Burger Lab

    Klang Valley: My Burger Lab

     
    Klang Valley: My Burger Lab – It’s time to get burger-ism with My Burger Lab @ Seapark, PJ after trying out some nice roadside burger. This name has becoming a trend lately that more and more people are talking about it. It’s a burger cafe in Seapark where it gets very crowded as early as 6pm. Crazily, some blog wrote the queue started as early as 4.30pm and the queue will never get short until late night.
    Nevertheless, I didn’t went early to be first to buy a burger, I was there at about 7.20pm and what I saw was a real long queue from inside to the outside. O.O It took me and Beng Tian about 20 minutes to get the front of the queue. Friendly staff was standing by the queue to give recommendation of their burger. Inside was overly crowded and the whole atmosphere was very happenings with mostly youngster. I checked Foursquare for tips, and many written that it’s over-rated, not worth the queue and OKOK-only lah.
    Well, I ordered their signature burger A+ Set (with fries and bottomless soft drinks) @ RM15 + RM6 while my friend ordered a Curry Crunch Set too @ RM15.50 + RM6. The 6 dollar is the additional charge for set.
    So we waited for a seat, sit down and wait for our name to be called. “212, Mr Nicholas, your burger is ready!”. It’s time to burger! Blacky gray charcoal bun looks added a uniqueness to the burger with deep fried fries perfecting the meal. A+ burger is filled with sharp cheddar, caramelised onion (woah!), shiitake & enoki mushrooms. The beef patty is succulent thick and a little bit of self add on mustard make it even awesome for me. Fries on the hand is nicely fried with garlic clove which is interesting.
    The overall experience was good, it’s burgerlicious, price wise is on the high side and if there’s not a long queue, it would just be even better. Come back again? Yeah, when I am ready to queue again.

  • Klang Valley: Burger Hub, Kelana Jaya (In Front Of Sterling Condominium)

    Klang Valley: Burger Hub, Kelana Jaya (In Front Of Sterling Condominium)

    Klang Valley: Burger Hub, Kelana Jaya (In Front Of Sterling Condominium) – Can say this is my prelude post to My Burger Lab. Haha, Anyway, I found out this little roadside burger stall from my friend Beng Tian and it’s located right in front of Sterling Condominium at Kelana Jaya. ‘Cheh, it’s just another Ramly Burger stall’, you are wrong if you think like that.
    It’s totally different, at least it has a better designed logo and price a bit different. So what’s special is the patty is very thick and it’s filled with melting sinful cheese! Instead of layering one by one like cheese and egg wrap with Ramly patty, the patty it self is filled with cheese and it’s definitely not Ramly’s, some other brand or perhaps homemade. RM5 for a Hub Burger, it’s not that bad for a supper.

  • Evening At Seapark With Flying Wan Tan Mee

    Evening At Seapark With Flying Wan Tan Mee

    Evening At Seapark With Flying Wan Tan Mee – Suddenly have the urge to take photos, it’s time for my ultimate Canon EOS 60D with Sigma 30mm f1.4 to go out for a trip. Saturday night was not just staying at home, online and TV for me; I went out to Seapark to find My Burger Lab for some burger-licious dinner with my friend Beng Tian.
    Accidentally, on the way to My Burger Lab, I found this very cool stall of Wan Tan Mee by the roadside, the Wan Tan Mee guy tossed the noodle so high in the air as the final move of cooking the noodle. I believe it’s to cool the noodle down a bit after cooking. After Googling around, the local call it the Flying Wan Tan Mee. Interesting, interesting and I want to try next time!
    My friend was the one who actually found out the flying Wan Tan Mee at there. I didn’t really notice it at first, then we waited about 10 minutes until people made an order, only then the guy did the stun. Haha. Good thing is, I’ve got the shot!
    Oh god, hungry now! Have you seen Flying Wan Tan Mee before?
