Hameediyah Nasi Kandar in Kota Damansara originated from Penang – an establishment that has been around since 1907 and said to be the oldest nasi kandar restaurant in Malaysia. I tried their nasi kandar a few months back when Jien did a takeaway for lunch at home. It was pretty good but I wanted to...
If you’re planning to dine at Pho Vietz in Empire Subang, lunch hour on a weekday can be quite chaotic. Jien mentioned the food is worth checking out and since I enjoy eating pho, we popped by to see what Pho Vietz has to offer. Expect a lot of movement to and fro the restaurant [] The post Pho...
My first taste of chapati was at a friend’s Deepavali open house where her mother served me hot chapati with one of the best mutton curries I’ve eaten. We drifted apart over the years but I still remember her mother’s homemade chapati till this day. Funny how I bumped into the said friend at Big...
The all new Lemon Garden at Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur re-opened its doors with a brand new look and a refreshed menu after undergoing renovation for four months. Lemon Garden has always been... {{ Visit http://www.sinfully-delicious.net to continue reading this sinfully interesting entry! }}
It’s rare to find a baker who’s so passionate and confident about his daily bakes, yet humble enough to welcome constructive feedback so he can do better the next time. That was my impression of Juwanda Hashim when I visited The Fabulous Baker Boy in Singapore two weeks back. I met with my friends over...
A lot of my friends spoke good things about the siew yoke briyani from Meat The Porkers in Publika – said to be Kuala Lumpur’s first non-halal Indian restaurant. This simple setup of a restaurant gets rather packed during weekends and you might need to queue for a table unless you make a reservation.
It’s easy to walk past Ramen Izakaya Kazushi in Solaris Mont Kiara and miss it – an unassuming spot along the row of coffee spots and ‘loud’ Korean food joints. It was a friend of mine who suggested this venue for dinner and I’m glad she did because the food is quite good. Kazushi is [] The...
Subang Jaya is fast becoming one of my favourite places to discover hidden gems as there’s plenty to explore amidst the multitude of cafés. Through a tip-off, Jien and I found ourselves in the middle of Pasar Moden MPSJ in SS15 Subang Jaya (SS15 Wet Market) where tasty noodles and fried rice can be...
I’ve heard a lot about Merchant’s Lane in Petaling Street – a café that occupies a spot along the row of shops/hostels in Jalan Petaling. Parking can be quite difficult to find unless you don’t mind paying RM15 for an open-air parking lot with pebbled surface; most people do that. Merchant’s Lane...
My first Hai Di Lao experience was in Shanghai and it was both a terrifying and eye-opening experience. The taxi driver we got couldn’t read or write so the directions written by our hotel concierge was futile. To make things worse, there were a lot of things I couldn’t pronounce in Mandarin and long...
Eating in Langkawi can be a tad tricky if you don’t drive, which was why Jien and I rented a car to get around the island. One of the places we found was Scarborough Fish Chips along Tanjung Rhu, said to serve traditional English style fish and chips. Scarborough Fish Chips is a [] The...
Yoogane, established in 1981, is a restaurant well received in Busan, Korea for its famed Chicken Galbi. Chicken Galbi is a tasty and spicy stir-fried dish consisting of marinated chicken, fresh... {{ Visit http://www.sinfully-delicious.net to continue reading this sinfully interesting entry! }}
As someone who takes food seriously, I tend to approach “Instagram-worthy” places with caution. That’s because not all that looks amazing on an Instagram feed translates the same way on the palate. More often than not, I’m right. Depending on your purpose of dining, you’ll either enjoy Jibby ...
Subang Jaya has quite a bit of good food places which I enjoy discovering. One of them include Xfrens Restaurant in SS18 – a dining option that Jien recommended, after going there several times with his colleagues. It’s best to arrive before peak hours as that way, you don’t have to wait for a table...
Im very open to recommendations from friends and fans, on what they think is the best of a particular cuisine or dish. These recommendations are what keeps me geared up and excited to explore the food possibilities out there. Plus, its good to have people do the thinking for you...
I absolutely love hot pot; it’s something I can eat almost every other day if Jien permits! Which is why I have a few hotpot buddies who would indulge with me whenever the craving hits. When Chunciou Hot Pot in Old Klang Road opened, I was excited. My friend Emily notified me about this “really...
Ah Lye Fish Head Curry in Subang Jaya has been around for years but it was only last year than I started going there for my curry fixes. The curry is one of the better ones I’ve eaten – thick, spicy and robust in flavour. Something many Chinese-style curries lack, in my opinion. A medium-sized []...
Kepong isn’t a place I venture into often – it’s always been the usual suspects of roast duck and yong tau fu, which I’ve been patronising over the last few years. I recently visited Wan Jia Restaurant for dinner and found the food decent. Was there twice in the past month – one with a friend...
Chicken rice happens to be one of my least favourite things to eat; I try to avoid this whenever possible except when Im in Ipoh, where steamed chicken reigns supreme. When Jien suggested chicken rice at Kar Heong in SS14 for lunch not too long ago, I wasnt keen. I thought to myself,...
Toast Roast holds plenty of memories for me; I first knew of them 6 years ago, when they started in a random shoplot in SS2. Since then, I’ve visited them numerous times for my char siew fix, bringing along with me friends and family who share the same love for char siew. The owners [] The...
