Nasi lemak ayam goreng @ Restoran Ali Food Corner, PJ



This was pretty good. The rice was tasty and wasn't sticking together. The sambal - well, it was sweet and some people may not like it. I do! There weren't any fried ikan bilis, though. The ayam goreng was really very good. Crunchy skin but not too much batter, tasty and juicy.

Roast duck and roast pork noodles @ Village Roast Duck



This place has the best roast duck in Malaysia!


Look at the layer of fat between the skin of the duck and the meat!

The raost pork is also one of the most consistently best in town!

Highly recommended.

Bean sprout chicken @ Cowan Street, Ipoh







The best "nga choy kai" in Ipoh! These photos were taken some years ago but the food there is still just as good!

Mushroom chicken mushroom burger @ TGI Friday's


The wife had this. It was not too bad - she said. I ate some of the fries - nice - and took the bun too which was quite light and a bit crunchy on the bottom.

But halfway thru the burger, she noted that the chicken wasn't cooked fully!!! It was returned and they offered to make a new one for us. Since she was already halfway thru it, we opted to have a desert instead.

Cajun chicken and shrimp pasta @ TGI Friday's


I had this the other day and i really liked it! It was creamy and a hint of spiciness together with tender pieces of chicken and shrimps. Satisfying!

Our favourite spot for claypot chicken rice! Have to wait for a while - but it is worth the wait.

Bean sprout chicken @ Lou Wong, Ipoh

Ipoh is famous for its nga choy kai - beansprout chicken. Nope, not chicken flavoured beansprout - but chicken served with bean sprout!

Perhaps the most commercialised place is Lou Wong (No. 49, Jalan Yau Tet Shin, Ipoh) - but i used to frequent that place when i had to travel to Ipoh for my court cases. But i was told it was mainly for out-of-towners.

In recent times, i was told that locals still frequent that place - tGiF's parents think it is quite good! So i went there and gave it another go.

The beansprout - can't get them wrong when at Ipoh!!!



The chicken was tasty - but super oily!!!! You can see the oil on the sides of the plate!



The rice was wonderful!!!! =P



And i always need my pork fix - and the pork balls did the trick!



No regrets going there again!

Duck confit at Le Petite

The last time i was down at Singapore, me mate Yu Jin (and his missus) took me out for dinner. They took me to this place called La Petite Cuisine. French food!

I opted for the Duck Confit - after seeking approvals from Mr and Mrs Cheah. I like the Duck Confit pasta at Delicious (that's another post for another day!) so i decided to try the original Duck Confit!

It was good!



Besides the duck being very nice and tasty, the potato thingy that came as the side was pretty good too!

The address for the place is #01-05, Serene Centre, 10, Jalan Serene, Singapore 258748.

Cirspy Jumbo Combo @ Cafe' Cartel, Singapore

We were starving after the run and just wanted to stuff our faces.

WS and i remembered that Cafe' Cartel (yes, the "Cafe'" is written that way) serves free flow bread!!! So off we went, to the branch at Raffles City.

Upon perusing the menu, i suggested the Crispy Combo which was meant for 3 people. Then i looked below it on the menu and saw that they also had a Crispy Jumbo Combo for 5 people!!!! Yes, we had that! The 3 of us.

Here it is - it was amusing as the girl at the next table could not stop staring at it when it came. And she kept on throwing glances at our table!



It consisted of fried chicken, fish fillet, rodeo wings, mixed vege, wedges. It was also suppose to have prawn dippers but they ran out and replaced it with calamari (i found a 'lost' scallop in the midst of the calamari!).

The fried chicken was really good. Skin was crispy but not too much flour. Meat was juicy and tasty. Huge portion. Boneless. Went really well with the BBQ sauce.

The calamari was alrite. The wedges - well, they weren't our priority. The vege was quite miserable - just the baby carrots and a few pieces of cucumber.

Very satisfying! less than RM40 per person.

The rodeo wings were nice - i love wings so it was hard to get it wrong.

The fish fillet was pretty good too! The fish was fresh and the batter again not too thick.

Duck noodles @ Imperial Treasure Restaurant, S'pore

I blogged previously about having dim sum at this place (see here).

We were pretty hungry when we got there as we did not have breakfast. WS decided to get something more substantial in addition to the dim sum and ordered the roast duck noodles.





It looked good and he confirmed that the taste corresponded to its looks.

Duck rice @ Wong Kei, London

Yes, the infamous Wong Kei!!! The place where tourists go to see just how rude the waiters can be. It's also the place where students go as it is the cheapest duck rice in town!

To be fair, the waiters have mellowed thru-out the years. I guess the novelty of rude waiters has worn off. I found some of them to be polite, even!

Almost each time i traveled to London, i would go there to fill me tummy! It was the cheapest duck rice in town. And i must admit the quality wavers.

I usually order the duck and roast pork rice.



The roast pork is so good. The layers of fat and meat topped with crunchy skin - lovely! The duck also has the layer of fat between the meat and the skin - British ducks! You can't find that here in M'sia. I haven't found any yet. All healthy skinny ducks here!

The portions are large. Generous cuts of pork and duck, all on top a great big plate if rice. Don't forget the 'chilly oil' too. The meal also comes with a small pot of chinese tea, on the house!

There is a section at the front reserved for individual customers - also a good chance to make conversation with strangers and other tourists.

I love going to that place. The smell of the place is so typically like a chinese restaurant. I hear the frenly banter in cantonese between the staff. There's usually this 'uncle' who'll be whistling so old chinese tune. Not the best duck in London but it's one of me fav places to go to.

Set lunch @ Esquire Kitchen, Sunway

It was Friday and we had to go 'rescue' one of our mates. That meant going out for lunch with her!

We were at Sunway Pyramid and ended up at Esquire Kitchen - the lady's choice. I suggested that we tried their set lunch - basically, we can choose one pork dish, one chicken dish, one fish dish, and one vege. It came with an egg foo yong. I kinda decided on everything and no one really had any violent objections.

We went for the classic Tung Po pork, fish stir-fried with ginger and onion shoots, lemon chicken and kai lan.



It was all generally quite good. The pork was tasty - and unhealthy! The fish was nice. The chicken was alright. The egg tho was really sad. Aren't there supposed to be prawns in egg foo yong?

Anyways, all this for RM55 excluding drinks. We had chinese tea which was free flow and took the opportunity to have a long comfy chat after lunch.
