Enjoy Mummy’s Dishes @ Miri

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.

I have been there for few times, and I do like this restaurant not just because of the tasty of the foods, but also the warm atmosphere. The first impression on this restaurant is a restaurant that quite similar as those young café restaurants KL which I miss so much in Miri.
The decoration of this restaurant is simple but comfortable. What I mean for the warm atmosphere? Is because of the warm smile and politeness of the waitress; they would not show impatience when I keep flip over the menu but still do not know what to order, but will recommend some choices for me and even walk towards and turn their menu board to my seat, just to let me see clearly what are their today’s special. It has variety of foods: from Chinese chicken rice, to Western style toast and even Thai's Tomyam soup noodle. One more thing, they charge at a reasonable price, a price which I consider as cheap in a café restaurant.

This time, we had ordered two rice meals for our dinner: Spareribs with bitter gourd rice and Fish steak rice.  For drinks, we had ordered Grassjelly and a cup of hot green tea. The grassjelly was too icy, too much ice in it.

My favourite --- Beef with Egg Rice ~YUMMY~

 

















Fish Steak with Rice

Extra order: Steam Salmon with tofu (bean curb)
All the meals are served with soup, and soup of the day is dehydrated Chinese cabbage (干白菜汤), my favourite.
Everything seems good in Double Star, but one thing to say is maybe they should update or change their menu book because it has started peeling and flaking.
