My Last Sunday Breakfast in KL

July 6, 2014 | 6,608 views

Red Sauce Kolok Mee

Sarawak Kolo Mee – Coated in a bright orange/red-coloured sauce; which is actually the oil dripping from the Roast Pork (Char Siew); this is a sinful yet fabulous way to enhance the flavour of the noodles. 

It pains me to write that first line up there. Yes, this is my last weekend in KL and Malaysia, before moving to Singapore next weekend. Hence, you can imagine the turmoil surrounding me at this moment. I am sorry if the recent reviews lacked depth or food shots; since I barely have time to park myself in front of the computer and get in the mood for writing.

Time factor aside, the scarily congested roads after work due to Ramadan, unfinished business and fickle weather, compounded by the never ending urge to complete my ‘makan list’ before making a fresh start down south are debilitating to say the least.

I won’t bore you with the melodramatic outbursts. Let’s focus on relishing each and every minute of your Sunday with your loved ones or calm the nerves and recharge the soul by your own self after a turbulent week at work.  Read the rest of this entry »

Mama’s Breakfast of Wonders @ Wondermama

October 22, 2012 | 9,876 views

Chef Fandee's Mee Goreng

Tell me your story about a favourite spot for breakfast in KL. Do you prefer time-honoured kopitiams or do you like modern cafes?

Is your heart moved by the sight of two runny half-boiled eggs on buttered toast; paired with an aromatic brew of coffee? Or have you an aversion to a breakfast of champions; the BIG Western platter with every possible artery-clogging materials known to men?

Come what may; thunderstorms & an everlasting congestion this monstrosity of a Monday; let me share with you this quaint spot ambitiously named Wondermama in Bangsar.

A Lazy, Rainy Sunday Morning @ Devi’s Corner, Bangsar

May 8, 2012 | 6,443 views

Roti Canai

This … is my “Lazy Song”

You know those gorgeous days when you wake up to a drizzling weather; raindrops pitter-pattering outside of your windows and the sun barely stealing a glance over from the horizon even though the time was nigh for a sunny jog?

Ahhh … the blissful thought of a homecooked, heartwarming breakfast (or brunch) to kickstart the day with.

Sorry, not for me.

I for one, will never stay in bed for hours even on rainy weekends; wasting precious minutes on idling around while there are golden opportunities out there to eat, eat and eat without the hassle of jostling with the usual weekend mornings’ ‘yum cha’ crowd, the ones hogging the seats after a “morning walk” (so-called, just so they can gorge on sinful plethora of dim sum and what-nots!) and eardrum-blasting yells of kids dragged out of bed by eager parents.

Nam Chun @ Lucky Garden, Bangsar – Perk YOUR Morning Up with a bowl of Sarawak Laksa

December 1, 2008 | 2,422 views

Here’s something to tantalize that tastebuds, early on a Monday morning …..

By now, probably needs no introduction …. THAT famous Sarawak Laksa stall in Lucky Garden, anyone?

Watched it on TV. Read this from blogs aeons ago. And finally dragged myself over for a taste of … well, possibly the closest one can get to the REAL thing.

Complimentary (compulsory’s more like it) condiments of pungent sambal and lime

Swimming in that not-too-thick gravy, a bowl at RM5 won’t puncture a hole in your pocket …

Thicker vermicelli was used, and the portion was more than sufficient for breakfast. The broth was good, thick yet not overly rich, with strong hints of “santan” (coconut laksa), reminiscing of curry laksa. Yet it was not spicy at all, and even subtly sweet. Squeeze that half of lime, and the additional tangy flavour will pique that tastebuds of yours. The accompanying 3 medium-sized prawns, shredded chicken meat, and bean sprouts were the usual suspects, but paired perfectly.
Sadly they were not serving abacus seeds (suan pan zi) that morning. Not sure they serve them anymore though, as I did not bother to ask. And another funny thing was, the service was so prompt (she does hire 3-4 workers to assist her though), by the time I reached my seats, the guy was in fact tailing me throughout. =P

Dry Wantan Noodle with Char Siew (RM4)

The other stalls around were running at full steam as well, particularly a Char Kuey Teow stall named Steve’s, a pork mee/fish head noodles stall, a chicken rice stall, and this wantan noodle stall. The stretch of glistening, caramelized and dark Char Siew (marinated BBQ pork) hanging on for dear life was sooooo tempting. And the plate of soy sauce+dark soy sauce tossed springy egg noodles, with generous serving of thinly-sliced Char Siew was a notch better than the average wantan mee.

Let’s hope the business above doesn’t involve hanky-panky… =P

More on KL food in later posts …. I’m out.
Location : Nam Chun @ 2-4, Lorong Ara Kiri, Lucky Garden, Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur.
Got MAP !!!
Those who’ve tasted that fiery (not really …) concoction sometime in the olden days :
