Penang prawn mee is something I’ve grown to enjoy but finding a good version in Klang Valley has been quite a challenge.

Hong Kong Hot Pot in Telawi Square Bangsar is relatively new but it’s often packed when it opens for business at night. It was my second visit to this small establishment – without a booking, you might have to wait for a table. I’ve been wanting to return since my first visit slightly over a []...

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fixated on steamboat or any sort of hotpot where food is cooked in a pot of broth. The only “hotpot” I don’t fancy as much is lok-lok, because I don’t get to drink the soup. BeBeHo Steamboat in Old Klang Road is relatively new and uses [] The post...
Writing about food is something that comes pretty naturally for me, especially since I’ve been doing so since 2007. While many FB establishments are popping up in Klang Valley, I’m more keen on hidden gems or food spots that are tried and tested over the years. Like Kum Kee Chicken Rice in Kuchai...
Kajang is an area I rarely venture into though it’s about time I should – there are plenty of hidden gems to discover, according to my dad’s cousin who lives in Country Heights. He took me to dinner at a restaurant named Xi Young Xuan where we had simple dishes that didn’t cost an arm [] The...

At home, we will usually have the Malaysian-style bak kut tehat least once a week when the weather is cooler. A couple of months ago, I tried the Singapore-style bak kut teh during one of my staycations over in Singapore and really liked it, so I thought why not try making it at home for...
For the first time in years, rif and I didnt travel over the long weekend so we decided to visit the Ali, Muthu Ah Hock in Kuala Lumpur, the second outlet after the original spot in Oasis Damansara. I find the outlet in KL more old school with its scruffy-looking walls which gives it an...
Mention pan mee and one will tend to assume it comes in the form of soup (spicy sometimes) or dry style (dark sauce or with chilli paste). Fried pan mee isn’t very common but rif and I recently tried it for ourselves, at this place called Big Tree Fried Pan Mee, just off Old Klang Road. [] The...
