Pontian Wanton Noodles House

Lately, there's a wanton noodle shop mushroom-ing in Klang Valley. Or is it wantan mee? Wanton mee? yun tun mian? argh...

Yellow colour signboard, Chinese-speaking staffs and tasty noodles - yeah, its Pontian Wanton Noodles House.


Apart from their signature noodles, the dish comes with both crispy fried wanton (dumpling) and wet wanton. Personally, I prefer the fried wanton over the wet one. And, their desserts are really tasty, especially the peanut soup and tao suan!

P'riok Steamboat Restaurant Buffet at Kelana Jaya (Lakeside view) for RM29.90. Halal.

Having seafood is a good idea.
Eating steamboat sounds great.
Steamboat buffet? That's cool.
How about eating steamboat buffet by the lakeside?
Fantabulous!

That's what came to mind when we go to P'riok Steamboat Restaurant, Kelana Jaya for their steamboat buffet (halal).

P'riok Steamboat Restaurant offers steamboat buffet which includes free-flow of drink. It has a wonderful dining environment, which is just by the lakeside. There are plenty of car park available in this area (RM2 per entry).

The service was good, and the staff greets you with friendly smile. They are quick to clean your dirty dishes whenever it starts to pile-up. Right before you start your steamboat buffet food race, they brief you on what and where are the foods located, including the drinks and ice-cream *grin*.

It was a dual-pot, with both tomyam and clear soup. It's good to start with clear soup before you proceed with the heavier taste tomyam. The soup were good, and the ingredients were fresh. There are a few type of chili paste for you to pick, and with more than 3 hours at your expense, you are entitle to eat at your own pace.

Apart from the usual array of seafood like crabs, prawns, fish balls and squids which were fresh, I would say the chicken wings were tasty.

Details of the steamboat buffet is as follow:

Kids (below 11yrs) = RM 12.90+ per person

Bak Chang Review: Esquire Kitchen's Guang Dong Zong and Traditional Recipe Restaurant's Golden Bah Chang

Since it's Duan Wu festival (chinese: 端午節/端午节 ), we have been longing to eat rice dumpling /bak chang / zongzi (chinese: 肉粽 /粽子).

So I was asking around where's the best bak chang, and someone pointed me to try out Traditional Recipe Restaurant's Golden Bah Chang and Esquire Kitchen's Guang Dong Zong.

I decided to do a takeaway for both bak chang, and eat comfortably at my home. Surprisingly, both bak chang was not steamy hot when I purchase them.


Traditional Recipe Restaurant's Golden Bah Chang

Golden Bah Chang is made of roasted pork, roasted chicken, salted eggs, sausages, dried oysters, chestnuts, mushrooms and glutinous rice. It has a long, cylinder shape (unlike the conventional pyramid shape) and white in color. The taste was good, not too salty and rich in ingredient. The roasted meat was excellent and generous, with a salted egg yolk inside. The price? RM9 (inclusive of tax).

The full dried oyster, sausages and mushroom

Esquire Kitchen's Guang Dong Zong

Next, I devour the usual Guang Dong Zong from Esquire Kitchen. It has the normal pyramid shape, and smaller in size compared to Golden Bak Chang. It looks and taste just like normal bak chang, but not as tasty as the Golden Bak Chang. It has generous serving of chestnuts, and the pork portion was quite adequate too.

The price? RM6.66 [RM6 + RM0.30 (service charge) + RM0.36 (tax)]. I really don't know why I need to be charged RM0.30 for service since I do a takeaway instead of dining there.

Nope, I did not have it at mamak warong. Nor any chinese eatery stalls. Nor is it at any small town or kampung. I had it at KL Mid Valley Megamall (there's 16 restaurants scattered around KL, Selangor, Penang, Johore and Negeri Sembilan having the same offer). And it is non other than The Manhattan Fish Market!

Valid only on 1st April 2011 for the whole day, you can enjoy a plate of Fish 'N Chips at RM6.99! And it really taste great!

RM6.30 - dinner or lunch at 500 restaurants nationwide, where to find?

I once asked my friend: How much if you eat at any chicken rice stall with a drink?
He answered: RM4.50 (chicken rice) + RM1.50 (drink).

Then I asked him: Do you know of a place where you can eat almost the same thing, but in an air-cond environment, easy to find location (500 restaurants nationwide), consistent taste quality, long-serving-hour (10am-10pm) everyday, and not even resting on public holiday (Chinese New Year included)?

He answered: Where got such a "dai" (worthwhile in Cantonese) place?

My answer: Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)! hehehe...

1 set of Jom Jimat Set A (1 pieces of Fried Chicken, rice, coleslaw (vegetable) and 1 carbonated drink) cost only RM6.30 inclusive of tax. Where else can you find?!?

Best of all, if you are hungry at really odd hour (3pm +-), you don't need to worry no fresh food served if you eat there.

Now you know why I always appear in KFC... hehehe... (too bad not in their ads)...

(I am writing this post at one of their restaurant in PJ right now, after finishing my lunch at 3pm ;)
