Charcoal Noodles @ Little Wonton Cafe, TTDI

I was surprise that is a noodle shop above the 99 Speedmart at Lorong Rahim Kajai, TTDI.
Since it shop names is Wonton (means small dumpling in Chinese), therefore, I am expecting that they will be serving authentic Chinese egg noodles soup/dry with wonton either fried or soup. Guess what, we got it all wrong... 
This cafe is nothing as like I expected (I refer to the menu), cause they serve charcoal noodle in few different favor from soup to dry and the wanton also have 2 type which are salty or sweet. Interesting right? 

Modern Chinese and Fusion decoration

The atmosphere is cozy and clean

We had to order at the counter, and since we are only 2 pax, so we opt to have the set dinner for 2, which included, 2 bowl of noodle, 8 pieces of wanton and 2 drinks for RM30 nett. As for the price, I think is quite reasonable to try and it was quite pack after we reach where there are more youngster dine in as well.

Banana Caramel wonton (left) and Spinach wonton (right) 
Drink is Ice Lemon Tea

 From the potions and the taste is both thumb up, I really like the noodles and for the wonton, since I am not a fan of fried wonton but I do find it interesting to have tasted something different, as sweet wonton. This place would be bit noisy when there are more customer, and since they only have 1 cashier and waiter, so please be patient on the food serve.

Overall, the food is nice and I do enjoy the charcoal noodle. The wonton is a must try since you don't get to taste the sweet type of wonton everyday. I will definitely to drop by again to try the dry noodles next time.

Revisit - KhunThai Restaurant @ Desa Aman Puri, Kepong

Whenever I saw any advertisement (cheap flight to Thailand) or news regarding Thailand, the first thing ever come into my mind is always their delicious, tempting food with full with aroma and flavor. Oh~ just by imaging it I already feel so heavenly...

I know that I had review this Khunthai restaurant this year, but the food is really worth going back for more. I know there is not necessary for the intro therefore, let straight away go for the food;

Tom Yam Seafood - RM23.00

I don't think there are a need to review for the soup already, after seeing the fresh seafood floating above and the hot piping charcoal which make the soup keep on boiling. Huh~ I wonder is hot or spicy now?  

Pandan Chicken - RM15.00

Well, this is one of they all time favourite dish which I saw most of the table ordering, so is tempting. The chicken is tender and marinated well, and this is the first time I saw the fried Pandan chicken added sesame seed, which had make the perfect combination.  

Kerabu Chicken Feet - RM12.00 

I think I would rather had Somtam / Kerabu Mango then this Kerabu Chicken feet, reason? I prefer sourly type of kerabu then the salty type. The chicken feet is tender and the taste is quite salty for me and is not even spicy so this dishes is just average. 

Umbra with Sour Plum - RM3.80

For a simple early dinner this time, we only order 2 dishes and a soup which is perfectly for 2 pax. As for drinks, I just have Chinese tea at 50 cent and my friend is trying their Umbra with sour plum. I believe is good since she enjoying the drink so much~ 

White Rice - RM 2.40 for 2 pax

I always love the way they serve the rice in an aluminum pot. Look so-Thai... hahaha~
As for the environment, with the Thai music and song, we will totally enjoy not only the food but the dinning experience with I think better than some of the restaurant I visited in Thailand. 

Inside the restaurant 

The outdoor hut 

The total bill come to RM60.10 inclusive of GST at 6% ( RM3.40). I really do enjoy this place and I rather choose to dine inside the restaurant because of the air-cond rather that the outdoor hut which I think is nice but I scare of the mosquito bite. LOL~

Huang Di Noodle Palace @ Bandar Menjalara, Kepong

Wondering where to have a good meal but with limited budget especially during the month end? hahaha~ well, I understand how it feel, truly. I thought of having soup since it been almost a week that I did not have any, therefore after look around the net, both me and my husband decide to try Restaurant Siong Ben Soup House. It was located at Bandar Menjalara, Kepong and trust me the parking is really full and pack during lunch, after about 20 minute we finally manage to get a parking and we decided to have lunch at the Huang Di Noodle Palace instead because we park directly in front of the shop. There are another reason why we decide to dine-in there;

Whole Charcoal Roast Duck - RM19.90

Hahaha~ this is the exact reason, once we saw the promotion and it was unable to resist. As you may see the whole roast duck is not as meaty as expected and I had to agree, may be this duck is too thin but I do like the crispy skin, Does it remind us on the Peking Duck?

Shark Fin soup - RM9.90

I know some people are again having shark fin and I am not really fan of shark fin. However, that is the only soup on promotion so no harm trying. The soup is just so so and shark fin? I am not sure if it really shark fin or fish fin but still not bad since they serve it hot.

XO Chicken Feet - RM6.00

This is the only dish that I feel not worth, and the taste not my favorite, and is totally different from the picture. Besides, I think they might put too much wine or vinegar it make the bean-curd taste bit sour, well, it seem like is my husband favorite dish - chicken feet... 3 pieces of chicken feets + 4 pieces of beancurd, is it worth the price?

Herbal King - RM5.50/each

This is totally the King price, this herbal drink which cost me RM5.50 but trust me is really nice and smooth, if I not mistaken I do taste fresh shark fin melon with longan and lou hon guo. Not only it was refreshing but it really had open my appetite.

Another thing which I felt is quite pricey would be the rice at RM2.00 per bowl. They have lots regular whom come for for the noodles. Overall, the food is recommendable. Next time, I would be back for they noodles for sure. I think we make a good choice to try this restaurant after all and it must thanks to their big banner at the entrace.

shop entrance

I was impress on their COKE collection

My table number~ nice ler

The total bill come up to RM 50.80 with no service or GST charge. So far is still affordable right? The best thing happen is we happen to park in front of the shop because it was raining by the time we leaving, lucky perhaps?! Now, I do believe in fate, do you?

Shogun2u Delivery @ Klang Valley

If you all remember my visit to Saisaki Japanese Buffet recently, and I did mentions about this Shogun2u delivery. I have to admit that I try the delivery is due to the 50% off promotion during the Raya months for both main course and sushi. Let see, first - how to order? I went to their website @ www.shogun2u.com

 Overall the food taste quite nice and this is my second time order, even though my first time order is disaster which the food arrive after 4 hours but the second time is only late by 15 mins due to the rains. I got the fried bun for FREE due to the my previous order came super late and the bun taste super nice like the chicken Char Siew bun that put in deep fried with the crunchy skin.

I enjoy the chicken Teriyaki and Sushi and as for the Yakiniku beef is nice as well, all the main course serve with 2 slice of pickle and vegetable with the thousand island source.

Saisaki Japanese Buffet @ Wisma UOA II, Kuala Lumpur

Hello...
Sorry as been MIA for quite sometimes. Well, no worry I am just taking a break recently and now I am back with more review and updates. I am regretted to not able to review on the buffet that I had during Ramadan month and now even pass the Raya celebration already.

Anyway, I still want to review and share my experience on Saisaki Japanese Buffet. Well, nothing new and most of you had been there couple of time but for me, is was my first time having Japanese Buffet in Wisma UOA II,KL. The restaurant located at  1st floor of Wisma UOA II, if you are a first time there like me, you will wonder if you are at the correct place since the building is quite creepy after the office hour and most of the shop is closed. My husband and I reach there around 7pm, just before the buka puasa start. Upon reaching you are welcome and guide to the counter to pay first before seated. The price for the buffet on Friday is RM65.83 nett (inclusive tax).

The Entrance - taken from the cashier

The buffet selection

Personally, I like their interior which when I enter the restaurant is totally feel different compare to the outside which the Wisma UOA II is too quiet and dim as most of the shop are closed. The Sakura flower design really does give us the Japanese feeling. Since is Ramadan months, there also offer local delight or Traditional Malay food as well. With the Ramadan months, I can see there are lots Malay family waiting and having their buka puasa here.

My first thing to do in a buffet restaurant is to check on all the dishes available and my first thing to attack is my favourite;

Fresh Oyster and Scallop with Thai dressing

Heavenly the seafood is so fresh!!! I almost can't stop eating the fresh Oyster~ The Scallop is nice too and I find it quite a unique taste with the Thai salad. Thumb up~

Fried Seafood - fish, baby crab, scallop, mussel, oyster, bamboo clam & vege?!  

Did I mentions that I love Seafood? therefore, nothing going to stop me now... more seafood, from the deep fried to bake and even Kam Heong fried bamboo clam. Delicious...

Sugar Cane Drink and White Fungus with Sweet Dates Drink

As for drink, there are a wide selection and there are hot and cold too. Since I am more interested on their food, I only help myself with hot green tea and I also try some sweet drink as above. Well, it do taste nice and refreshing.

Steam Patin with Soy Sauce and Fried Tempura + Satay

The best fish I ever had, the Steam Patin taste so nice and the tag written Australia Patin Fish. Wow?! As for tempura is not bad and there have quite a variety. 

Lala and Mix Teppanyaki

Since we are getting full, therefore the food order getting smaller portion. I really enjoy the food there and I feel the freshness of all the food either raw or cooked. It make me drooling even while I blogging about it.

Soup - Buddha Jump Over the Wall & Shark Fin soup

If I not mistaken, there are 3 variety of soup to choose for, Buddha Jump Over the Wall, Shark Fin Soup and Fish Head Soup. All of them are my favourite but there are a limit with my stomach. I love the shark fin soup, it was so nice and I can taste every slice of the shark fin. 

Grill Seafood & Cawanmushi 

more food?! Since is a buffet.... why not? after trying all the seafood in variety cooking style, I just realise this is a Japanese buffet, therefore sashimi is a must. I have to give up on the sushi even though they look so tempting but I already reach my limit.

Sashimi & Fruits

Finally, dessert. I like the coconut jelly, it do look transparent and you might not realise in the picture since the place is white in color. Look up closely at the Kuih Talam, next to it is the coconut jelly.

Local Dessert - Herbal Jelly, Kuih Talam and Coconut Jelly

Ice-Cream 

They had 8 variety of ice-cream to choose, for me I like my ice-cream with some fruits and peanut. They also had Cendul and ice-kacang (ABC) DIY at nearby the drinks corner.

Overall, most of the food is up to my expectation and for a buffet, I never expect the food to be this delicious. All the food is very well prepare and most important is the freshness of the ingredient which bring out the prefect flavor to all the dishes. Honestly, now I understand why is the restaurant full house even though it located is such place. Well Done!!!

*ps; By the way, we get free premium membership to sign-up for Shogun2u delivery, and I did try it recently and will share with you guyz later.

Hee Lai Ton Restaurant (Pudu) @ Shaw Parade, Kuala Lumpur

This restaurant is recommended by one of my husband friend. Understand that he love dim sum therefore I follow to join the food - eating. This Hee Lai Ton Restaurant is located at 3rd floor, Shaw parade, Jalan Changkat Thambi Dollah off Jalan Pudu, Kuala Lumpur.

We went there during the weekend, so I already assume it will be difficult to get parking - for car and table - for dim sum. So I take my own sweet time to reach there around 10am and lucky enough I manage to get a parking inside Shaw Parade and a table once I reach the restaurant. Once we seated, we are asking us to order by filling the quantity in a form. My husband ordered a tea for 2 pax, and been waited more than 10 minutes before we ask the captain for the tea to be serve.

Finally the Tea serve and the sauces 

Well, I understand the place is crowded and they are running full house but their service is really can't comment at all. We pass the order which written in the form given to us earlier and patiently wait for the food to be serve. Well, we only order 4 type of dim sum which I saw the portion is quite big.

Fried Eggplant Roll - RM6.80

Crystal Har Kau - RM7.50 

Har Kau with Vege - RM7.50

Premium Beef Ball-RM8.00

You might be surprise with the Premium price, as I was stunned a bit when I go though the order form. Once I feel the service is poor therefore, I am quite reluctant to stay long in the restaurant. The serving is quite big and among the four dim sum I order, I love the Fried Eggpland and the Beef Ball the most. Especially the Fried Eggplant which is something different and the taste of the crispy eggplant really appetizing.

The bill come come out at RM39.10 with 6% service charge and 6% GST. Even though is pricey but with the portion they offer I think is more suitable if you come with a big family or group. Else, you can't even order much and you might be getting full pretty fast with their big portion. When we left, I realise they had a hall next door which serving full moon lunch. That might be one of the reason why they are sort of staff.
