  • Klang Valley: Acme Bar & Coffee, Troika, Kuala Lumpur

    Klang Valley: Acme Bar & Coffee, Troika, Kuala Lumpur

    Klang Valley: Acme Bar & Coffee, Troika, Kuala Lumpur – Troika is one of my favourite building in Kuala Lumpur, designed by Foster & Partners architect and it’s standing beautifully just right across the KLCC park. It’s actually a high-end city condominium with restaurant at the mid-level sky bridge and also at the ground floor. Of course, it’s a high-end fine dining restaurant at the sky bridge on 24th floor, there’s also a bar as well as another Italian restaurant (unfortunately, only the Cantaloupe fine dining restaurant can get the best view of KLCC).
    Coming back to Acme Bar & Coffee, or ABC in short, is another restaurant at Troika, but located on the ground floor. The restaurant, of course serve western cuisine, as well as food with a fusion of localized taste and price starts from RM25. It’s rather pricey, although some accept it because of the location and interior setup of the place. Don’t expect the premise to be big, it’s actually smaller than I expected, but the raw steel and wood design, blend with English-style design actually attracted my senses quite a lot.
    Let’s talk about food. When people discusses about ABC, the first thing comes to mind must be their famous Cempadak (Jackfruit) Cake, but that’s desserts and served in the end. Of course, they have a good Smoked Buffalo Wings which we didn’t order, unfortunately. The menu’s variety is quite choice-ful and me and my friends were confused picking out our main course.
    Just Mac & Cheese – RM27.
    Angel Hair Pasta with Scallops – RM-forget.  Another interesting dish with lots of pan-fried scallop.
    Sambal Hebi Aglio Olio Spaghetti – RM31. Interesting combination of local and western taste with lots of shrimp.
    Grilled Jumbo Hot Dog – RM-forget, but I know it’s the lowest price of all and my friend said it’s good! Yes, it indeed looks good.
    Marinated Grilled Lamb Shoulder – RM-forget but it’s the priciest of all you see here. The portion is quite big which I promise a full stomach after this.
    Cempedak (Jackfruit) Cake – RM15. The famous cake of this restaurant. Truly, the taste of jackfruit is very strong and powerful which will be pleasant for jackfruit lover.  Many complains it’s overrated, but yes I still like it, but not the price.
    US! The food gang, the interior designers.

    Yes, the food is very over-priced in my opinion, but it seems to be a nice place for hangout with friends actually. Food taste is still up to standard in my tastebuds and service was pleasant. If there’s a chance, I want to go back for a breakfast as they have different menu. After all, the down point is still the price, really pricey. Bahhh.

  • Klang Valley: Banana Leaf Rice @ Sri Nirvana Maju, Bangsar

    Klang Valley: Banana Leaf Rice @ Sri Nirvana Maju, Bangsar

    Klang Valley: Banana Leaf Rice @ Sri Nirvana Maju, Bangsar – Wanted to try this for quite some times, and finally I’ve got a chance. I’ve heard quite some good reviews and seeing it always packed during lunch and dinner, the Sri Nirvana Maju Indian cuisine must be good I assumed.
    Located right opposite of Bangsar Village Mall, this little Indian restaurant serves rice on banana leaf as well as other Indian dish with a blend of local taste. I’ve read that people complained about the price went up in just a year and two, however looking at the crowds, the price increased did not shoo people away.
    Banana leaf rice was the dinner for me and my girlfriend. Each set costs RM7 and comes with rice, papadum and 3 vegetables – deep fried bittergourd, cucumbers and cabbage, as well as deep fried chillies. You can opt for 3 types of gravy to add a bit of spiciness and aroma to the rice – dalcha, chicken curry, fish curry. That’s the vegetarian meal of banana leaf rice. I find it too vegetarian and added 2 side dishes – sambal boiled egg and chicken masala.
    Everything was fine, spiciness was at a good level and the portion was just too big! Ended with a satisfaction and Clarice couldn’t finish her rice. It was indeed pricey at RM27 for 2 person, but nevertheless, it’s a good meal.
    Sit back, wait, see and enjoy your meal.

  • Klang Valley: S.Wine Cafe @ Publika, Solaris Dutamas

    Klang Valley: S.Wine Cafe @ Publika, Solaris Dutamas

    Klang Valley: S.Wine Cafe @ Publika, Solaris Dutamas – Oh pork, recently I am addicted to pork and found this nice pork restaurant at Publika, Solaris Dutamas. To be exact, it’s located in the grocery – Ben’s Independent Grocers (B.I.G.). I actually went there once but failed to eat because we were late and ended up with Namoo On The Park. Lesson learned, and I was there earlier than before!
    When you go to grocery shopping in Malaysia, normally the pork section is separated from the rest because it’s Non-Halal. Well, the S.Wine Cafe is located at the Non-Halal section and also right beside the alcohol section of B.I.G. Pretty interesting.
    Pork is the main thing there and so all the dishes were all about pork. We’ve got pork chop, pork meatball, and pork sausage wrapped with bacon. Yummeh. Food presentation and the interiors are quite nice. Taste on the other hand is heavier than Betty’s Kitchen (I prefer the gravy at Betty’s though) and what I like about is the texture of the pork, it felt nice comparing to local Chinese pork dish. Wonder what pigs do they use? Haha. Well, the price was on the high side, but given a good atmosphere and food, it justifies. S.Wine, I’m pretty much I will come back again, perhaps bring my parents for a try.
    Good food and good people. Good people of the night – Siyi, Connie, Jason, me, Henry, Hooipheng and Quenna.
    Caesar sald.
    Tomato soup.
    Mini pork sausage with bacon.
    The pork chop!
    Look at the oily part of the pork, I just can’t put that into my body! Sinful!

  • Klang Valley: Namoo On The Park, Publika

    Klang Valley: Namoo On The Park, Publika

    Klang Valley: Namoo On The Park, Publika – So many to write about in my blog, my Taiwan’s trip, some cool food in Klang Valley, my internship experience and the Miao Hui in Penang that happened last month. Stay tuned to my blog, keep reading, keep sharing, I will bring more good photos and content to you all. =)
    Few weeks back in KL, I went to Publika for dinner. The initial plan was S.Wine at B.I.G, but then when we arrived, the lady told us that the kitchen has closed! What a bad timing, and we ended up at Namoo In The Park, a contemporary Korean-Fusion restaurant with a cute name and contemporary atmosphere. I pretty much like the interiors of this little restaurant that locates on the first floor of Publika.
    Recently have been eating a lot of nice restaurant food lately, going broke but I just can’t stop myself from exploring more of them. HAHA. Talk about the food, it’s Korean Fusion, so it’s Western-Korean mix. The rice burger is uberly nice and big portion. Fish & Chips was huge too, but a little bit too standard and the famous potato cake was not my type of desserts, too sticky with a mooncake feeling.
    Afterall, not bad, can come back again. So is not bad, can come back again.

  • 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: Dragon Door Steamboat 龙门客栈火锅店

    Klang Valley: Dragon Door Steamboat 龙门客栈火锅店

    Ground floor is not the steamboat. You enter via the stairs beside, but then the ground floor restaurant has the similar design.

    Klang Valley: Dragon Door Steamboat 龙门客栈火锅店 – My friend Wesley has been telling me how good and special the steamboat is and I went to tried it last week, I felt … OKOK-only.

    You will be welcome by a wall of the shop owners photo taken with some celebrities. Do note that some photos are repeating to create a illusion that super celebrities were here before. Haha, but in fact, there’s quite many celebrities have been there.
    The interiors.

    What’s so special about this Dragon Door Steamboat at Cheras, near to Leisure Mall is the interior setting which is very cool, warm and got feel, and then the steamboat is fired by a real charcoal pot which many people claims that it taste better like this. I was not really surprised with charcoal steamboat as there’s one in Penang already.

    Guys of Diploma In Interior Design @ Taylor’s University – Arvin, Moh, Gino, Steve and Wesley.

    There’s no set menu, it’s all a la carte where you order the dishes one by one of your choice which I find it’s pretty difficult to get satisfaction, more over we are student and keep thinking how much it costs in the end. There’s plenty of sauce for you to mix and match to be eaten with your steamboat that I feel is nice.

    Oops, photo was bombed by the steam. Anyway, I very hate Si Chuan Spicy Soup.

    Whereas the soup were pretty good too except for the Si Chuan spicy soup which I’ve never fancy about all the while, I like the pork leg soup which surprisingly didn’t result in the craving of fluid like other steamboat’s soup does that has lots of MSG.

    Us again.

    Well, it’s a nice place, a little bit pricey and confusing that they should have set menu, and I prefer La Mei Zi in Penang.
