BANANA LEAF RICE - JAIPUR CURRY HOUSE, TTDI




Banana leaf


Makan apaw! Banana leaf! That yummy thing! You can either have it as a vegetarian meal or add some chicken or fish dishes! Jaipur Curry house is easy to find but parking can be really tricky!




Just a plain, ordinary sign but wait until
you go inside....



I had the vegetarian banana leaf rice. Papadoms, pumpkin,
cucumber, fried spinach, mango chutney, spinach curry.




Aerial view! In the small bowl in the middle is fried bitter gourd.
Yummy and crispy. And not forgetting those sourish, fried
dried chillies in yogurt , moor mollega.



Some rasam, to cleanse the palate.



The aftermath!


After all that, if you still have room,
try their humongous karipap (or currypuff, a small pie like, 
filled with curry chicken and potatoes) which has a quarter slice 
 of a half boiled egg in it.



Or you can just cross the road
and buy some putu piring (steamed rice cakes
with grated coconut and palm sugar).
These sell like hot cakes too!



Just look for that pink signboard now!


The place is almost always packed especially during lunch and Fridays.
So go early!

KYOCHON 1991



Kyochon 1991 - 1Utama, Bandar Utama




Makan apaw! Right, more chicken! This time Kyochon 1991
at 1U! These are the basic series (L to R) Original soy series, 
Honey series, Red series, Salsas series.




Their three promises to you!



True! It was different!


   

Radish - yummy but a bit tart



On to the main course. This is from their all day combo,
small set 2. For RM16.90, you get 5 Salsal pieces,
rice, soup, ice lemon tea or soda and choice of sauce,
Jambalaya, Honey mustard or red (spicy).
I chose red....it was really spicy. It wasn't a dipping
sauce for me but rather dabbing sauce!



Salsal strips - chicken breast strips coated
in rice batter. Real crispy!




Ice lemon tea - nice not sweet & I like that 
square like glass.



Combo - picture is a bit blurry.




Red series - medium stick





Honey series - wings & drummet small




The waiter placed this tall steel container  on our table
and said to place the bones there. Keeps the table clean!
No bones pile next to plate, easy to dispose off too.




Gonna try this next time!



Their tapau box is the cutest! And yes, having
Lee Min Ho there doesn't hurt. 
Doesn't hurt at all! LOL!

Secret Recipe - Fish and Chips, Lasagne



Not just good for cheese cakes....





Just like wall says, yummy! Makan apaw!
If you're looking for crispy, 
but still moist on the inside not oily  fish and chips,
 try Secret Recipe's fish and chips.  
There's two types, plain and spicy.



Not much difference between the spicy fish and chips (above)
and the plain fish and chips (below). There's just a bit more
of a bite to the spicy one. Just look at those golden brown pieces of fish!
Squeeze some lemon top and you're set!
Both sets are served with a nice handful of fresh greens, 
crunchy purple cabbages.
Try it!!





The lasagne! Oozing with cheese!
 Ignore the visual and dig in! Yummy!

Nasi kukus


Location: Mutiara Damansara


Makan apaw! Nasi kukus, that's what!


Delicious, well fried, fried chicken, chunks of pineapple,
some sambal and lashing of pajeri nenas.

NASI KANDAR IBRAMSHA





Nasi kandar Ibramsha
Location: 68, Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman




These pictures were taken 2 years ago but I've been there 
(and before these pictures were taken) so many times, 
I've lost count! Yes, there's Pelita, there's Kudu, 
Line Clear and  the list goes on but I still prefer NASI KANDAR
HAJI IBRAMSHA! It never fails to please! It's always 
delicious, delicious, delicious and delicious! Hehehe!



They have the usual blend of curries, just tell them, kuah campur!
Believe me, they know what's best! Just let them do it for you.
Then there's the crunchy cabbages fried with some turmeric, 
and of course the fried chicken or chicken cooked in soy sauce with spices.
You could always add some telur dadar (omelette), green chillies, 
papadum and you're set!
 Don't forget teh o ais limau kurang manis!
(ice lemon tea, not too sweet) 
Best combo ever! 
 



Smile! Dishing out that yummy nasi kandar!
The rice pots are placed in a big rattan 'basket' used to kandar
 (carry) the rice. And that little container to your right is sambal belacaan.
See that stack of plates? It will be gone just like that! Snap!



One or rather a few for the road!

Ayam Penyet



D'laman restaurant - Ayam penyet





Feel like having some ayam penyet? Just head to D'laman Restaurant. It's opened 24 hours a day and located right next to Gombak Police Station! You can either have ayam penyet panggang (chicken is hammered (literally) and mixed with a sweet and HOT soy sauce mix OR just ask for ayam penyet goreng (minus the soy sauce), which is just as good, Or you can try the various fish offered here or the bakso.

Nasi Padang


Nasi Padang - Grand Garuda Baru Restaurant

Location: Jln Raja Alang, Kg Baru



Here we are! Restoran Grand Garuda Baru.
Lots of parking space

Some dishes we ordered, clockwise: Gulai ayam (chicken gravy),
 rendang ayam hitam (a bit spicy),
pucuk ubi masak lemak  (tapioca shoots cooked in coconut gravy),
gulai nangka (jackfruit gravy),
 sambal merah and hijau (not spicy),
 dendeng daging kering (dried strips of beef,
crispy not tough like jerky)
 and fried chicken with extra crispy bits.
The leafy thing is  tapai (fermented glutinous rice)

ABOVE: Close-up of the fried chicken and gulai ayam.
BELOW: sambal hijau and merah


Ample places to sit. Nice long tables to eat with friends and office colleagues



The tapau rice, it was really a rectangular in shape.
 Not the usual cone-like or square.

The food was good and delicious! Not as spicy as I thought it would be :)
Though it's a bit pricey.....
