Menawan Restaurant @ Imperial Palace Hotel

Nice and comfortable environment

Here is where the morning buffet served.


Omelette served with Chips

Chicken Chop served with Garlic Sauce

Fish and Chips
Personally felt disappointed as the fish seems being over fried that lost its own freshness.

Chicken Burger served with Chips
Quite delicious and the portion was quite “high” that I had to eat its ingredients “separately”.



Yong Chow Fried Rice RM 8
I personally like this a lot as it smell good, taste good with some big prawns, 2 big crackers and chicken cha siew, inexpensive (one of the lowest price meal in the menu) and quite large plate or rice that may enough for 2 ladies, but felt greasy at the end.

TeoChew Porridge
Never try TeoChew Porridge before this, seems quite special with so many ingredients

Fried Meehon and noodle with seafood, and specially requested fried egg on top with extra charges, of course.

Fried Meehon with Seafood

CHINESE MENU



Environment，of course inside a hotel, definitely the environment and renovation is much better than outside restaurants, just sorry to say that been found some dirty food residues left on fork and cup, seems itchy to me. About services, maybe need some improvement as well.

New Hong Kong Duck Eating House @ Miri

 

Location: at Boulevard Commercial Centre, Miri

  

Quite interesting name, New Hong Kong Duck Eating House, I guess its signature dish will be the Hong Kong style roasted duck. It serves not just roasted duck and chicken rice, but also some oriental dishes from wok and some hawker style food as well.

 

Roasted Duck Rice  RM 5.50

The duck meat was a bit dry and did not have much taste of duck. Even served with sauce, I still felt that this plate of duck rice was too dry to chew.

Roasted Pork Rice  RM 4.50

I love roasted pork. The skin of the roasted pork seem crunchy, but they cut too flimsy, unable to taste its crunchiness.

As usually, there will be a bowl of soup served together with the rice, but this soup was too salty.

Buffet Steamboat @ Japan 23 BBQ Steamboat, Setapak, KL

 

Location: at CenterMart, Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, Danau Kota, across the road from Platinum Point, may enter through Jalan Genting Kelang or Jalan Usahawan

Steamboat is my favourite, it will be good with BBQ, and if there is buffet style BBQ Steamboat, then this will definitely

suit my stomach, because I can eat as much as I can without counting how much I should pay.

 

There are some fresh seafood, but I guess should need additional charge for this.

There were many different kind of snails, you can pick as many as you like.

Different kind of choices: Japanese tofu, white tofu, mushrooms, fish ball, flammulina, different meat like chicken, pork, lamb, beef, and some meats were marinated for BBQ.

    

Also had those we usually have for steamboat: sausage, ham, fish cake, prawns (not fresh in tank), oysters,etc.

Not only that, those who are too hungry and can’t wait for steamboat, there are some cooked foods here: shark fin, fried nuggets, fried meehun and mee, sushi, cakes, and fruits.

Each person entitled for 2 fresh prawns which included in your payment, will need to charge extra if you want more. Here are the prawns that were still in the fish tank.

 

Can you see how big and how fresh the prawns were. These prawns were still “jumping” inside the basket and you will need to be careful when putting it into the soup, because it may “jump” out of the bowl.

 

Getting started. You can take your own sauce, like chillies and soy sauce, but don't forget to take butter for BBQ and sesame oil for the steamboat.

Second round… this time was BBQ scallops.

  

The price paid also including one coconut drink per each person.

 

BBQ meats that grilled by restaurant’s staff.

 

 

Restaurant Ah Chuan @ Pertama Complex, KL

Location: Inside Pertama Complex, Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahaman, Kuala Lumpur, next to SOGO KL

Pertama Complex is one of the earlier or known as the first shopping complex in Kuala Lumpur. It located at Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman, in a high density traffic area, nearby the well known Sultan Abdul Samad Building at Merdeka Square and Sogo Shopping Mall. In Pertama Complex, there are many shops that are selling sportswear, photographic equipments, handphone, shoes, trophies, watches, some branded jeans and clothing at an affordable prices. You may drive and park at the Pertama Complex parking lot or get there by public transport: Star LRT (Rapid KL – Ampang Line), get down at Bandaraya station, Pertama Complex is just next to SOGO shopping mall.

 

Restaurant Ah Chuan is located at the top floor inside the Pertama Complex. Usually the restaurant will be crowded with people during lunch time 12pm to 2pm, as there are many offices, especially two large banks (UOB and CIMB headquarter) located nearby Pertama Complex. Previously I worked nearby the complex, thus this restaurant is one of my best choice for lunch, as it sell variety of foods: rice, porridge, and different kind of noodles.

Economy rice – have lots of choices.

Bitter Melon Fish Ball Glass Noodles

Bitter Melon Fish Meat Glass Noodles

Something special to me, bitter melon in soup with noodles. You may choose in meehun, mee or Teared Noodles (板面). Although there are lot of bitter melon, but the soup was not bitter at all. There are bitter melon, fish meat, pork ball, eggs inside this bowl of noodles. Bitter melon is quite good for health, for those who like bitter melon may try on this.

Tomyam Glass Noodles

Tomyam Glass Noodles

Every time I smell its tomyam, I will certainly salivate because it is my favourite. Compare with other restaurant, Ah Chuan’s Tomyam has more ingrediants: Pork ball, chicken meat, yuba, mushroom and tomatoes. Not every restaurant serve Tomyam with glass noodles, for my personal preference, glass noodles really suit well with tomyam soup. Its tomyam soup taste sour and spicy, feel good after having this bowl of tomyam noodles.

Why the tomyam noodles so spicy? See how many big chilies I found in the soup.
