Hong Kong Style Porridge

Friday, October 14th, 2005

If u’re looking for Hong Kong style (fine texture) porridge, this is the place you should never miss out ! Situated beside a busy road, Jalan Tun H.S. Lee, the stall sells three types of porridge which are fish, chicken and pork intestine porridge.

All of the three has its own specialty. For instance, the fish used are very fine sliced of raw fish which will be cook once you dip it or pour it in the “boiling” porridge. For the pork intestine porridge, you can ask for additional minced pork balls or deep fry intestine! In addition, the steamed chicken with oyster sauce is also tantalising (ask for more gravy so that u can mix it in the porridge)! The porridge texture u find here is very very fine and has a sweetened taste, i wonder whether they have added in chicken stock !!

Sun Rise Vegetarian Restaurant

Thursday, October 13th, 2005

Good news for all the vegetarian fans ! I found a restaurant in Kuchai Lama which serves extremely delicious vegetarian food. They have a variety of food ranging from “man-made” chicken, duck, fish …. etc … they even serve sharks’s fin! If u’re thinking that vegetarian shark fin is cheap then u’re wrong! It costs about RM20 – RM 30(can’t really remember the price) for that small bowl ! Let me know how it taste if u ever try it !

I ordered a “Pei Pa Duck”, Salted Deep Fry Lotus and also Asam Fish … All these three dishes has a unique taste … they really have have the taste of the real duck, and fish ! The deep fry lotus is best served as a snack after meals. It’s crunchy and abit salty.

Overall, it’s a nice vegetarian restaurant and it’s not very expensive for all the dishes (unless you order the shark fin lahh … )

Umai-Ya

I decided to chance upon this place since the feedback was interesting (based on The Star’s review). The overall experience was wonderful … but expensive as expected from Japanese cuisine. The environment within was done up nicely, cozy and modern with many booths lining the walls providing privacy to the diners. At the end of the hall, were few private rooms with sunken floors for diners spending a minimum of RM150.

As for me, the booths were sufficient and comfortable enough, letting the tastefully lighted deco consume me. Ordered the following spread of mouth-watering experience…
