Bumped into this Korean restaurant last week by chance; was settling some stuff at a nearby bank and the restaurant was just a block away.
Lunch at Kin Shui Tei Japanese Restaurant at Tropicana Golf & Country Resort last Sunday. First heard about the restaurant from my ex Japanese boss years ago, who recommended the place for its authentic Japanese cuisine…
Somehow it took me years to make my maiden visit, which turned out to be one of the best Japanese meals I’ve ever had; guess it’s better late than never…
Saturday lunch at Meng Kee restaurant at Hicom-Glenmarie Industrial Park, Shah Alam. Their char siew (Chinese barbecued pork) is one of the best I’ve ever had, nuff said…

Dined at Toscani’s Wine & Dine at Waterfront, Kota Kinabalu, during my trip in March 2009; the restaurant is specialised in Italian and Spanish fusion…
Cha Ca La Vong is a restaurant in Hanoi famous for its grilled fish (Cha Ca) dish which was created some 130 years ago. The restaurant/dish is so famous that the street is named after it, and it’s featured in almost every single Hanoi’s travel guide.
There’s one problem though, as some other restaurants are riding on its fame with similar name and menu to take advantage of naive foreign travellers, and I was one of the fallen prey of the conspiracy during my Hanoi trip in July 2008…
Was thinking of having fish for dinner yesterday (Jan 10) and bumped into the restaurant by chances while making rounds at Puchong Jaya.
The restaurant dubbed itself as a ‘wild natural river fish specialist’, and I am very much a fish lover (in edible sense)… so it clicked as soon as I saw the restaurant.
Steamed bating fish, presumably a kind of catfish… fresh and delicious
Dined at Farmland Restaurant in Sri Petaling, Kuala Lumpur, last Sunday (Jan 4). The restaurant is one of the branches of the restaurant famous for its porridge steamboat.
Double based steamboat, with porridge and tomyam base on each side
Dinner on New Year’s Day at the Lala Chong Seafood Restaurant, a popular place located just opposite of Subang Airport, Selangor, Malaysia.
Used to dine at here occasionally when I was staying nearby at Kelana Jaya, but this was my first visit since moving to my new place in late 2007.
The restaurant’s signature dish is Siong-Tong La-La (clamps in special stock), and they always maintained a decent standard with their crabs. There are a few other gems in their menu, but I would advise staying away from the fish dishes. Overall a good dining place with reasonable price.
