The Dessert Shop (Kuantan)

It was my last day in Kuantan and I was still dying to try some local food and finally got the chance when brought to The Dessert Shop beside Amway Kuantan Shop. When I first got there, I was a bit hesitant as I thought how my colleague would feel full from desserts but little did I know I did regret having eaten quite a few spoonful of  bihun siam at the hotel just now.

Wine Chicken Bihun (RM 10.90) 

I am always happy whenever I could have wine chicken soup. The soup was so fragrant and delicious with tender chicken! It was quite a long while since I have had such delicious wine chicken. There were a lot of black fungus and sliced ginger inside which added into the fragrance.


Rojak (RM 6.90) 

The rojak is just the Penang sweet version and reminds me of my hometown.


Sungai Lembing Tomato Sauce Spaghetti (RM 7.50) 

Actually, this is more like Sg Lembing version of pasta whereby the noodles were locally made. The sauce was just nice, not too sour or sweet and balanced by the egg and vegetables. Totally heavenly!


Fried Beancurd (RM 4.50) 

I never knew that Sg Lembing is well known for making soft tofu! It was beautifully fried and I could not stand having the last piece when urged to do it!



Deep Fried Pancake (RM 3.80) 

The fritters were deep fried till super thin and crispy that I could not seem to have enough of it.



I also liked the ginger glutinous balls with mixed fillings (RM 5.50) and also the thick sesame paste (RM 4.50) which made me fill super full!

Coffea Coffee

We came to SS2 area and ate my favourite Char Koay Teow during my December leave. Then found out that Coffee Coffee had an opening promo of 15% for the coffee so I took the chance to order cappucino which was served in paper cup as I thought of having it as takeaway.

The coffee is just nice and smooth and fragrant.




Uncle Don's

It was Christmas Eve 2017 and we went to Uncle Don's in Taipan for dinner together with my parents who just got back from Greece.

Turkey Rendang (RM 17.95) 

This is very weird to have turkey cooked rendang but with much gravy to dip with the warm white bread of with white rice. The turkey is really tender and soft and quite cheap at this price.



German Pork Steak (RM 14.85) 

Fancy having German Pork Steak for this low price? It is not that tasty as the normal pork chop here and more like burger patty to me.



Chef's Pizza (Pork) (RM 12.70) 

The pizza here is the cheapest I have ever eaten for such a big portion and crispy crust.


Don's Salad with Grilled Chicken (RM 12.70) 

The price of the salad is almost the same with the pizza and steak! But the portion is very big and more worth it than Chilli's.



Roasted Mushroom Soup (RM 9.55) 

Dad ordered this which turned out to be similar with wild mushroom soup.


Of course we top if off with the - 2 Degrees 1664 Blanc Mug (RM 12.75) which was so cooling and refreshing!

Tony Roma's

Let's just say I haven't  been to Tony Roma's ever since we went there to celebrate my friend's birthday party in Sunway Pyramid a very long time ago. So since I am here in Nu Sentral on a Monday on the way to meet my friend Fariba in Times Square, I decided to try the lunch set at Tony Roma's which ended up a very hearty meal consisting of big french loaf, chicken soup and also a quarter of barbecued chicken. The chicken is tender and moist and tasted even better with the variety of sauces available there. 




I requested to change the french fries to mashed potatoes which turned out to be not the smooth version but very much like what we make ourselves as it was a bit rough with onions in between and I am sure a lot of cream to make it. That's probably why the mashed potato cost RM 10 ++ for just a side dish.

Teo Chew Lor

After watching The Greatest Showman movie, we went to Teo Chew Lor to have a small meal before our dinner steamboat party later.

Mixed Organ Soup (RM 11.50)

I really mixed organ soup everywhere I go. It is quite tasty. There was kway chap served too in a bit dark sauced soup. At RM 3, we did a top up of salted vege, half a braised egg and also a herbal tea drink. I really like the sourish chilli sauce.








Pablo Cheesetart

Having seen so many facebook posts about Pablo, we have always wondered what's so great about Pablo so finally after passing by many times, we decided to give it a try at One Utama. 

Mont Blanc (RM 9.90)

This is one of the seasonal flavours but we could not taste much of the chestnuts. The employees only placed the mont blanc cream on top of the original version. 





Pablo Mini original version (RM 9.90) 

I rarely go for the original but Jonathan is that type so we tried it. Pablo cheese tart is quite crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.

Pims & The Rama

I was out going to One Utama for CNY clothing shopping and dropped by in Aman Suria for a quick lunch. We decided to try this new cafe called Pims & The Rama as there were lunch sets. Most of the workers are Thai and the superviser was still training them.





Lemongrass and Pork Fried Rice (RM 15.90) 

This is just normal fried rice and nothing much to complain.



Pad Thai Noodles Prawn (RM 12.90) 

The Pad Thai was quite ok but would have been better if spicier. They are generous with ingredients too.





Coconut Ice-Cream (RM 5) 

For  lunch sets, we could add RM 5 to get a delicious coconut ice-cream which was almost like Sangkaya with crackers and also peanut cookies inside too! One could feel the chunks of coconut when eating this.
