Hehehe... it's actually Ngap Keuk Pau, literally translated as duck feet wrap. Hahaha sounded grosser huh??? I doubt the younger generations would have any inklings to this item which is usually found at roast duck stalls in Petaling Street.Last Friday, I went along with Yozora to Petaling Street. She wanted to grab some char siew (bbq pork) to make loh mai kai for her miow-miow. Whilst waiting for the Auntie to chop up the char siew and siew ... read more

babe_kl writes: **Non-Halal**In between our rides at the theme park, we hurried off for a quick dinner instead of going to our regular place. Not so sure what to have we decided to head over to Highlands Hotel to check out the eating places since hubby didn't want to walk so far to First World. Found this Restoran Good Friends Express since I didn't want to wait and order dishes from the restaurant under the same name next door.This Good Friends Express is a self-service fast food restaurant ala Chinese. All you need to do is place your order and pay at the cashier. Then you move down the line to collect your order. The menu is ... read more

babe_kl writes: Come lunch time, Changkat Ceylon, Lorong Ceylon and Jalan Mesui will be abuzz with activities. It is very popular amongst the office workers around this area to have their lunch at the hawkers at these stretches. I used to come here very often when my office was nearer. These days I will only come here once in a long while due to the distance.There are a lot of good stuff around here ranging from the mixed rice stall located within a Chinese temple along Changkat Ceylon (that leads to Wisma MPL's carpark) which sells vegetarian dishes on the 1st and 15th of the lunar calendar. No doubt the dishes are very tasty but it's super duper expensive, ... read more

teckiee writes: We have everything all planned out for the last day. Eat everything we have been eyeing for, eat everything that we like, and do our last minute shopping.We head to the market again hoping for that particular packed noodles stall to be open and with less people. We were in luck to find three empty seats for us to squat. I had the rounded noodles with minced pork balls and bambo shoots soup. (10,000 Dong) The soup was just so so but I like the bambos shoots itself. Some might not like the bamboo shoot smell as it might smell too pungent. I'm used to it because I love them in my ... read more

teckiee writes: This was sold just out front of out guest house. Crowded on Day 2. Crowded on Day 3. I eat on Day 4. Red rice (2,000 Dong)! That dark seed is from a red fruit that produce to dye for this rice. I have no idea what fruit is used to get the red color. The rice smelt a little different, but different good. Tasted good with the salty chicken floss.After the quick breakfast, we headed hours out of Hanoi to the jetty that will get us to the Perfume Pagoda. I sat in front of the row boat. It was an hour boat ride to reach the foot hill ... read more

teckiee writes: Food stalls every where but we had no idea which stall to eat at for breakfast. Ended up in some stall at some alley way having pho. Pho = noodles. (Not poo ...hahahaha) Pho is pronounced as 'fo'. I didn't know about this until the fourth day in Hanoi ;pAnyway, I had my 'pho so' (which means shellfish noodles) with a tomato soup which taste sweet and sour. The soup would have tasted better in the afternoon when all the flavor from the tomato and meat have mixed into the soup.One really weird thing I encountered when eating my pho. See that yellow thing ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: 1. Except for my dad who grew up on berries and boars on the plantations of Sungai Siput, the rest of us in the family have had less than solid stomachs. The whole family has a loyalty card at Pantai (buy 10 surgeries, free 2) and a parking lot right next to the lift reserved for the most frequent visitors. So when it came to planning a birthday dinner for mum (born in the Year of the Pig), we knew that the task was bigger than it seemed. We had to prevent another visit to Pantai at all cost as they had ceased their loyalty scheme. (They said they were losing money thanks to our last barbequed lamb fiasco.)... read more

Robyn Eckhardt writes: Some foods must be tried because ... well, just because. We've grazed to beyond bursting at a great little market on the edge of Kuala Lumpur's Golden Triangle, and are on our way out when we're confronted with the Winson Berger. Soft squishy buns, waxed pork, chicken floss. Initially, it's not appealing. But the Winson Berger has so many things going in its favor - the jerry-rigged portable prep station lashed to the back of a motorcycle, the funky hand-lettered sign, the jowly vendor. Plus, there are customers. People are queuing for the Winson Berger. Two people are, anyway. The grill's a nice touch. A bit of char ... read more

teckiee writes: Want to have good Italian pasta but don't have that kind of money? Think no more because California Express BBQ and Grille Station is definitely the place for you.HAHAHA sounds like a cheezy advertistment, but really, I really like the food here.Many thumbs up for the pasta! Many of the restaurant I have eaten uses the same tomato base as their sauce. Everything will taste like Bolognaise even if you have ordered Seafood. But here it's different. I love the heavy fragrance and the different flavors of the herbs and spices that are used for the sauces. Oh, and when the menu says al dente, you really get your pasta al ... read more
