Sze Chuan Cuisine@ Mentari, Bdr Sunway

  We are actually not fancy over Sze Chuan Cuisine as we are not really good in handling spicy food. But then still we would like to try out this fusion restaurant, "Chuan Ren Bai Wei".

  This is how the restaurant look like. Quite different from those typical Chinese restaurants. Simple yet trendy. And what really impressed us that they actually wrap their cutleries nicely before serve it on table. =)

  So here comes our first dish, stir fried vegetable! Superb dish made up of cauliflower, dried chilli, bacon, chilli and onion.

  Next, steamed bean curd in "ma po" style. This dish a little too spicy to us. And also the freshness of bean curd had been covered by the spiciness of chilles.

  This is the last dish, fried frog legs with spices. To be frank we are big fans of frog legs and also this is really nice. It consists of frog legs, ginger, lemon grass, dried chilli, chilli, and onion.

But bear in mind the food in this restaurant is a little expensive. Because our bill exceeds RM60 for just 2 person. =)

House of Fish Ball @ PJ Old Town

  This is rather a random decision to try out this restaurant as we had actually planned for something else (of course it doesn't turn out as planned). This restaurant sells teo chew cuisine and the interior is more like in a 60's. Fish ball is my all time favorite so of course we were more happy to try this out as well.

 All of our food are heavenly superb, especially if you are a big fan of fish ball/ fish paste. You will definitely fall in love with the food! But sadly the beverage here we could say it's nothing special or rather not very good. So we had decided to drink only chinese tea for our next visit. Haha.

  So this is dad's Fish Paste Mee Soup. The soup is cooked traditionally with salted vege, just exactly the teo chew style. Soup is so sweet, the fish paste is superb, and most importantly they used the laksa noodle as the mee! Very interesting combination!

This is my Home made Porridge. Porridge was cooked until smooth, and with over-flooded fish ball and fish paste. My favourite!

Their signature Dry mee pok. The mee pok is still lovably chewy, served with fish ball soup. Nice but too bad the soup turn out to be too salty.

Homemade fish ball. I don't think I need to further explain it's delicious and the Q-ness, as I had talked about it for N times earlier on =)

  Fried Fish Noodle with Chu Cheong Fun. It tasted exactly like Batu Pahat's " Cha Kuey" - Fried Carrot Cake. It seriously bringed back my childhood memories back in BP! Must try!

  Hand made Fish Paste. What I can say is that all the fish ball fish paste in this shop are beyond standard. Indescribably nice!

  The Hainan tea and with our desserts. Like I say there's nothing to regret even if you missed their dessert.

Overall rating: 9.5/10 (Exclude the drink cause it couldn't be too fair)

 Where is the missing 0.5? Blame the fan, it's too hot! If not it will be a more enjoyable food hunting trip!

Bouquet Garni @ Shah Alam Section 9

  This was rather random when we decided to visit this restaurant, Bouquet Garni, after reading an article introducing it on The Star. It is located just right beside the RISDA building, yet knowing that it is not attached to RISDA.

  Food served inclusive of western, and also some local delights, ranging from appetizer to dessert, not to forget it's house mocktails. But too bad we're not in the "mocktail" mood on that day, so we'd decided to skip it. Bouquet Garni is also a "HALAL" certified restaurant, which make it more convenient for our Malay friends to dine in.

  We like the ambience as it is very relaxing with dimmed light and soft music. This is a casual dining restaurant so  no dress code required. Food that day was above average and we are satisfied. So let's the photos do the talking now.

  Smoke Duck Salad. We think that the duck will look more attempting if it was in pinkish.

  Cream of Mushroom Soup. What I can else say! This own made soup blended with 3 mushrooms and served with big slice of garlic bread, 9.8/10 rated!

  Bouquet Garni Chicken Wing. Fried to perfect and coated with their home made sauce, RECOMMENDED appertizer.

  So here comes the dish DU JOUR, Lamb Shank! The lamb was braised till the texture is soft, with the silky smooth sauce and rice, just can't stop eating till the last drop of sauce!

  Stuffed chicken breast. This was really wasted as the chicken breast had been seared for too long and the texture was too tough with not much cheese taste. Could be further improved.

  We were lucky enough to get a dessert from the house. The tart was soft and it was really nice. Thank you!

  The portion overall are satisfying, and we would definitely pay another visit to Bouquet Garni!

T-Bowl @ Sunway Pyramid

   We were actually wondering around in Sunway Pyramid and not knowing what to eat, as those restaurants just don't seem to arouse our appetite, till I decided to just look at the information board and randomly chose this restaurant - T-Bowl.

   T-bowl is a themed restaurant and with the bathroom concept. Very interesting yet not being accepted by everybody. Through our observation, their customers are mostly youngsters and people in their mid 30s. What so FUN about this restaurant is their interior, where customers sit on the toilet bowl and eat on basin. Food served are presented on either mini toilet bowl, or food bowl.

   So here comes our appertizer, Chicken Boxing. It was too dry & a lil too salty. 

 

Next the second appertizer, Double boiled Ginseng and Drumstick Soup. (RM6.50). This is the best amongst. The soup was so herbally-sweet, with the chicken essence, PARFAIT!

Our first main course, Lai Wan Style Porridge. I like the freshness of cuttlefish slices, crab stick and fish paste, but the porridge seems to be a lil too tasteless.

Next, Chicken Mambo Pork Rice. (RM11.90). The pork was cooked with "nam yu" sauce, very nicely done. Recommended  dish. 

The Tomyam Seafood Flamming Pot. Too bad T-bowl did not utilise the freshness of the seafood, there is not much flavor in the soup except the dead spiciness. 

Last but not least their Dessert of the house, Donut Delight. Very interested stool-like chocolate flavored ice-cream with waffle. 

Our drinks.Blue Curacao Frappe Bubble (left) and Lemon Sourplum (right) .

T-Bowl Cafe @ Sunway

There are 4 T-Bowl Restaurant in Malaysia, which located respectively in Sunway Pyramid, Sungei Wang, Queensbay and Melaka Raya. You can give it a try, though the food is just normal, but this is a nice place to  explore with friends.
