Enjoy Mummy’s Dishes @ Miri

3-star2
DSC00047
Location: Jalan Merpati, Opposite Imperial Hotel

Mummy’s Dishes 家常饭, a warm little restaurant that recall our memory of taste of our mother’s dishes. Mummy’s Dishes located opposite of Imperial Hotel, same row with Anakku shoplot. It is a bit difficult to locate the restaurant at night, because there are no lights on its shop sign.

Since it is called “Mummy’s Dishes”, most of the dishes in the menu are what we usually cook at home. There are only few choices in the menu, but some maybe special that are not easy to find at other restaurants.

Ginger Soup with Rice 家姜麻饭 RM 5.50

This is a dish that suitable for women who are in confinement – those who just delivered baby, chicken soup with large of gingers.

Very strong smell of ginger and wine, actually I couldn't able to accept the taste of it because really choke my nose but I guess this dish was quite good for health, is good to try.

Old Cucumber Soup 老黄瓜汤 RM 3.50

A very traditional home-made soup, taste good as it had cooked very well, just a bit oily. What inside the soup : old cucumber, spareribs, squid, and jujube, made it tasty especially to those who like soups.

Nasi Lemak @ NagaLiar, Miri

DSC00032

NagaLiar located at Jalan Merpati, opposite Imperial Hotel, famous with its nasi lemak.

NagaLiar is using self service practice, where customers need to order and pay at the counter and it’s business hour is from 7:45 am to 3:30 pm

Bubur kacang hijau RM 1.80

Quite tasty, but I heard that its Bubur ChaCha is much better, too bad it was unavailable on the day I visited.

Nasi Rendang Kambing RM 5.30

What have we here, of course, rendang, fried egg, some sour vege, plus salted fish. What I disappointed was, I thought I will be given some “Papadam” biscuit as picture shown in the menu board, instead of fried egg.

Nasi Lemak Regular RM 3.80

A normal nasi lemak, plus a salted fish, fried egg and chicken wing. Same as Nasi Rendang Kambing, the rice has santan smell, but not strong.

Heard friend said NagaLiar nasi lemak is super yummy, but as far as I experience, it is just normal nasi lemak, maybe is because I had try nasi lemak that is much more yummy than NagaLiar in Kuala Lumpur.

Mee Suah @ Hee Bing in Miri

Hee Bing 喜宾楼茶室, situated at Jalan Helenium, opposite Imperial Mall area. Heard that there is red wine chicken soup mee suah selling in this restaurant, so I thought give it a try.

Although it is using red wine, but it’s taste moderate, no taste of chicken soup and a bit salty. The chicken meat was too dry and the mee suah was starchy with no elastic. Well, for me a good chicken soup mee suah, not just the taste of the soup is important, but also the quality of the mee suah, which is the main ingredient to determine how good the chicken soup mee suah will be.

Laksa @ 28 Food Centre, Miri

DSC00021

28 Food Centre Restaurant located at Jalan Ross, opposite Imperial Hotel, Miri. This time would like to introduce the Laksa from the Nancy Stall in the restaurant.

DSC00014 

Laksa RM 5, a bit expensive than others restaurant. It looks nice, but the laksa taste not quite strong, just can considered as so-so.

See, the prawn was quite big, fresh and “elastic”.

Chillies sauce with lime

Overall, the taste of the laksa is moderate, but I do like the prawn and and the way they “decorate” it or in other word, the “appearance” of the bowl of Laksa.
