What's For Dinner?

My dad read about this kopitiam on the newspaper and we went there for breakfast this morning. Unlce Lee Kopitiam is located in Taman Tun. If you're coming from PJ, take a right at the traffic lights after the Taman Tun Market...it's the second last shop on your left.




Overall, the food was ok. I'd go there again for the Prawn Mee. I wouldn't mind trying the Curry Mee and Yam Cake. I didn't like cold Teh Si though. The tea wasn't ready made so they made some on the spot and added ice to it. The ice melted really quick and tea didn't taste that good.

With so many bakeries popping up like mushrooms everywhere, it's hard to know which are the good ones. Nah, I was never into the the Rotiboy buns. I tried one when I came home in December and it was nothing to shout about. The buns have been sitting there for awhile and they weren't as good as I thought they would be.

Anyway, here's my pick for bakeries. My favorite bakery (so far) is Bread Talk. If I'm not mistaken, I think they're originally from Singapore.

They're known for their chicken floss buns. Their Hokkaido Dome is the only reason why I like this place. You gotta try it! It tastes so wonderful right out of the oven. Crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside :P~~~

Sorry, I was so busy eating it that I almost forgot to take a piccie of it. Here's what's left! LOL!
Oh yeah, they also sells a variety of cakes and breads. I don't know which are good because all I want to eat is the Hokkaido Dome every time I go there!!

Everytime I come home for a visit, I'll surely make a trip to my favorite Sang Har Min place. The restaurant is called Restoran Kow Siew (I'm serious. No kow siew, ok? LOL!). It's probably the owner's name. Anyway, it's located near the MPAJ building. I don't know the exact address but do ask if you want directions there.




What you should know:
1) They also serve yee min, fried beehon, and fried veggies.
2) Either go for early or later in the afternoon to beat the lunch crowd.
3) Food is on the pricey side if you order extra prawns. We ordered a normal yin yong for two, and the same thing but with the extra dai tau har, the total came up to about RM75. For drinks, we just had iced tea.

This is one of my favorite Nasi Kandar places in the Klang Valley area. Every time I come home to visit my family, we'll surely come to this place for lunch. This stall is located in the kopitiam beside of the Puchong Tesco, along the main road. If you're driving from old Klang road, it's the kopitiam on your right, before Tesco.

Personally, I think this place is way better and hygienic compared to Acha's in Taman Petaling. I think they (Acha) hardly ever change the oil for frying and it's PITCH BLACK (just like the wok they use)!!! I used to enjoy eating there but I think it's quite expensive. The quality of the food is not consistent. Most of the time, it's either too salty or too oily.

The food at this Nasi Kandar place is very reasonably priced. This is what I had: Rice, lots of veggies, curry fish tail, fried fish (yeah I love eating fish!) and a fried egg. The parents ordered quite a lot too. 3 person, 5 meats/fish, and tambah nasi/papadums for around $15 bucks, drinks not included. I think it's a sweet deal. My dad sort of knows the boss and he gives a discount. The only setback is that this place is quite a drive if you live in PJ.


Oh yeah, the owner has more TLC than other Nasi Kandar stores. I'm not sure if it's because he knows my dad but he always asks how much and where to put the curry gravy. Sometimes, I hate it when the Nasi Kandar man flood the rice with so much curry gravy and it's so frustrating to eat.

What to order har? The curry fish is the best followed by Fried Chicken.

Papa Kopitiam is located along the shoplots outside of the OUG Yaohan on Old Klang Road. This place is suppose to be well-known for their kopitiam style coffee, teas, and roti bakar(toast bread with butter and kaya). They also serve western breakfast and local fares like nasi lemak and curry mee.


Whatever you do, DON'T order the fish noodles. At first, I thought it was fish slices with Egg Noodles (cooked like the dry wanton noodles). Ugh! It was terrible! The Fried Beehoon with sambal was better.

This place is nothing to shout about. It's an ok place to hangout if you're bored of the crowded Starbucks, Coffee Bean or Kim Gary.

After I dropped off my luggages at home, the parents and I headed to KL for brunch. We went to Imbi Palace. It's located near the Imbi Market. This restaurant also serves regular Chinese food but you can also order individual dim sum dishes. Check out their fish tanks! You can pick you seafood and they'll cook it to your liking.
