Nyonya Tanjung Bunga - We are back.

The last time I blog on this restaurant Tanjung Bunga was way back in January 2012, business is still as good as usual, the younger generation has taken the restaurant for quite sometime and has been holding the fort very well. Thumb up for that.

Perut Ikan - everyone seems to like this dish very much and it bring us memories when we were living back in Penang, we used to savour this dish either from our mum's kitchen or somewhere in the island and definitely it has vouched to be still a favourite dish among us.

Thai mango salad was very appetising and everyone of us enjoyed it.

Jiu Hu Char - again we talked about my mum's Jiu Hu Char we used to eat whenever she cooked it for Chinese New Year unfortunately this time she has stopped cooking for CNY as eating out was easier when the number of people eating has mushroomed. I prefer my mum's Jiu Hu Char, the one here is slightly too wet.

Coffee spare ribs was interesting and yummy.

4 Heavenly Kings with sambal udang was also delicious comprising of lady's fingers, petai, brinjal and angle (winged) beans.

Claypot Tofu specially ordered for my father in-law something soft and tasty for him to enjoy.

Tomyam was too sour, I told them we are in a Nyonya restaurant we shouldn't have ordered Thai dishes, it's a mistake in deed. 

Ever since I was young I have always enjoy prawns cooked in this way that is fried with assam but I like it fried slightly darker and drier.

This Ma Yeaw Yee did not pass my fellow companions as they were the ones behind the kitchen of Ping Wah that specailises this fried fish dish. I would think it's has to do with the freshness of the fish.

VM Boat Noodle at SS2 Petaling Jaya

Both my younger sons have tried it and came back home telling me how good it was. So the daddy brought them there again to check it out this time including the mummy.

It reminds me of the Hatyai boat noodle I had during a cycling trip back in 2014 and that the most delicious boat noodle I ever had.

The going was slow in the beginning but it started to pick up as the eating rolls on.

A dry version of VM boat noodle.

Rich soup with pork glass noodle that was rich and creamy.

Clear soup glass noodle.

I actually was here for this pork koay teow, literally I dried up the entire bowl. It was awesomely delicious and for RM6.50 it's a good deal indeed.

Poached Dory fish fillet with salad, I find the taste was rather flat.

Seafood noodle for RM8.90 with prawns, squids, fillet and clear soup.

Thai coconut milk dessert with strips of nangka (jack fruit).

The pricing.

Restoran Nyuk Min 玉明美食小厨 @ SS2

It was a Sunday evening the same question was raised again as expected "where to eat ah?" Well I love the young ones they are the scouts marking new places to venture and Wei Xiang remembered a place that smells awesomely good when he was passing by once and so we went for the hunt in SS2. I noticed that most of the tables in the shop are small tables catering mainly for groups of 2 to 4 persons. It is kind of a fast food joint and it was packed to the brim when we arrived. 

A sweet and sour pork though the portion was small but just enough as we were indulging in quite a substantiate of dishes this round. 

Three colour steamed egg 蒸三皇蛋 for Jo as she was on a meat fast.

Deep fried pork loin that was tender and juicy.

Spinach soup with century eggs and anchovies topping, I enjoy soup and like this one.

Curry red snapper was below our expectation dish.

Homemade seafood tofu.

Sambal Kangkong belacan a strong flavour veggie simple yet delicious.

Deep fried battered prawns doesn't look impressive but palatable.

Braised pork belly with yam (wu tau kau yoke 芋头扣肉) was good.

Fried Loh See Fun for two persons we just wanted a feel of it and it did not pass the satisfactory level from us but anyway this place is still a recommended place to visit. We will be back for other their dishes. Thanks to Wei Xiang.

Restoran Wai Kei SS2 for a Hakka Home Cooked Food

This street at SS2/10 is always happening for food lovers, you get to see new food outlets opening after a while, competition is keen and one has to be good to survive its existence. Welcome Wai Kei.

Our usual dinner on a Saturday evening and a mere walking distance from my In laws' house to the glutton street of SS2. This time we have Yap family from Singapore with us and thanks to Evelyn for proposing this new place. It was a right choice indeed.

We started off with this free range poached chicken everyone was very happy with it and a must try dish. 

Hakka Cha Yuk was another delicious dish on the table and kind of a home cooked meal for everyone.

Another popular Hakka home cooked dish Kau Yuk 芋头扣肉 , the pork belly and slices of yam were perfectly cooked and the taste was gorgeous. 

Signature fried Tofu was also a favourite among us.

Chinese wine soup with chicken, fried egg and ginger stripes was another yummy choice, some of us even compared with others and vouched that it's the best so far. 

This vinegear trotter came by mistake and it was touched and considered sold, Thank goodness for the mistake I love the gingery sweet taste....

Mixed veggie stir fried with sambal belacan commonly known as the Four Heavenly King but without my favourite petai.

Everyone seems to enjoy this home cooked Hakka dishes but the last two noodle dishes were nothing special. Overall the food here is good. We shall be back.

Go Thai on A Wednesday Evening with a Brunch of Happy Cyclists

It was a last minute call for a Wednesday ride and within an hour or so there were more than a dozen happy cyclists appearing at Johnny's place.

The gathering place was at one of our regular places and this time it was at My Bicycle Shop, Bandar Utama

From Bandar Utama we started off with an early climb at Bukit Utama though it was short and steep but it was a good warm up.

We then cycled over to a nearby kampong next to Bandar Utama and make our way out into the main road near Damansara Toll where we used the motor bridge and got ourselves over to Kampong Sg Kayu Ara.

After making a stop at a bicycle shop at Taman Bahagia we then made our way to SS2 for a Siamese affair. Let Go Thai for some Siamese street food.

Now we don't have to be in Thailand for this Khao Kha Moo (stewed pork) which I love to eat whenever I am in Thailand be it in Southern Thailand or in the capital city of Bangkok. This dish is available in the entire Thailand perhaps the taste vary from region to region but the look of the dish is about the same. This one at SS2 is gorgeous.

Tomyam seafood with fish slices, prawns, squid, and mussels. The soup is thick and spicy and surely a favourite to all Thai food lovers. Must try then!

Here is Kuey Teow soup of Thai version called Kway Tiao Nam Sai of clear soup or there is another spicy version too at Go Thai. These are lovely soup noodle indeed.

Papaya salad (Som Tam) is another lovely appertizer.

BBQ pork fillet (Moo Ping) was a killer it was so tender and tasty. I like it with my cool "Chang" beer.

 A dessert at last to cool the hot and spicy feeling and nothing like having it with the popular Tub Thim Krab.

The stewed pork at the front counter to lurk you and make you drool.....

The Thai girl preparing a plate of Khao Kha Moo.

The pit that prepares the pork fillet or Moo Ping.

The inner decor of Go Thai.

We love our food as much as we love our cycling though there are many other cyclists think that we aren't really cyclists as we eat too much. Anyway who cares and we just don't give a damn to what they say so long as we are happy for what we are doing. 
Cheers hApPy CyClinG and have fun.
