Malaysia is a food lover’s paradise, with a diverse range of delicious food to excite your taste buds. While popular dishes like Nasi Lemak and Roti Canai often take the limelight, did you know that Chicken Chop was actually created in Malaysia?

The famous celebrity chef Dato Fazley Yaakob has teamed up with Knorr Malaysia in a search to uncover three exceptional but underrated chicken chop joints that are worth exploring. These eateries have not only captured the hearts of their loyal customers but have also received the esteemed title of being among the best in Malaysia.

With that said, here are the Top 3 Award-Winning Chicken Chop Places Recommended By Dato’ Fazley Yaakob:

1. Charlie’s Cafe

Nestled in a quiet housing area in Kuala Lumpur, Charlie’s Cafe has been serving up mouthwatering chicken chops since 2015! Dato Fazley Yaakob has praised Charlie’s Cafe for its juiciness and crispiness. It’s worth mentioning that Charlie’s Cafe Chicken Chop is also really big and affordably priced at RM26.90, with a complimentary Ice Lemon Tea.

The tender, juicy chicken paired with a generous portion of crispy fries or mashed potatoes and coleslaw makes for a hearty and satisfying meal.

What sets Charlie’s Cafe apart is their Chicken Chop sauce cooked using Sarawak Pepper, which gives a mild spicy kick. Its culinary prowess is undoubtedly deserving of accolades.

Address: 29, Jalan Bukit Desa 5, Taman Bukit Desa, 58100 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur
Hours: 11 am to 3 pm (Closed on Sundays)
Delivery: 10 am to 6 pm (Daily)

2. Dioh Salai @ Ipoh

Dioh Salai, situated on the outskirts of Ipoh, has been in operation for almost a decade. Founded by Arriff, a young man from Negeri Sembilan who is passionate about fusion dishes.

“My wife gave me the idea to combine Chicken Chop with Salai (Smoked Meat) + Masak Lemak. I basically smoke my Chicken Chop for 1 & a half hours with mangrove wood and drench it in creamy & spicy masak lemak gravy,” Arriff said.

Dioh takes the classic chicken chop to new heights by infusing it with Negeri Sembilan’s rich heritage of spices and herbs. Dato Fazley Yaakob was captivated by Dioh Salai’s unique approach to chicken chop, which involves marinating the chicken in a blend of aromatic spices before smoking it to perfection.

The result is a succulent, aromatic Chicken Chop with creamy Masak Lemak sauce that will take your taste buds on a journey.

Address: Persiaran Sengat Baru 2 (Near Petronas), Taman Bersatu, 31300 Simpang Pulai, Perak

Hours: 12 pm – 8 pm

3. Paku & Pontianak KL @ Jalan Gurney, KL

Paku & Pontianak KL is a casual fine dining restaurant nestled in a bungalow house. Decorated with roses, vintage items, and black accent decor, this restaurant is themed after spooky Malay folklore and will definitely give you a unique and unforgettable dining experience. Furthermore, there are ample parking spaces, making it suitable as a venue for events and parties.

We sampled their award-winning Hainanese Chicken Chop, which is deep-fried until juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Unlike the usual Hainanese Chicken Chop, the culinary team at Paku & Pontianak has given this classic dish a twist by serving it with creamy and velvety tomato-based sauce, and topping it with peas, mushrooms, and fries. The result is a chicken chop that’s bursting with flavor.

Address: 21, Jln Gurney 2, Kampung Datuk Keramat, 54000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur

Hours: 11 am to 11:30 pm (Daily)

While Malaysia is known for its culinary diversity, it’s essential to celebrate the underrated gems that enrich the food scene. Dato Fazley Yaakob’s endorsement of Charlie’s Cafe, Dioh Salai, and Paku & Pontianak KL as the top three chicken chop places in Malaysia speaks volumes about their exceptional quality and unique flavors.

If you’re a foodie looking to embark on a culinary journey, be sure to explore these underrated but exceptional chicken chop establishments.

The post Meet Sangeetha, The 34 Years Old Hotel Management Dropout Behind “Akka Nasi Lemak” appeared first on Fun N' Taste.

]]>

You’ve probably heard of Akka Nasi Lemak on social media, and for good reason. What started as a small Nasi Lemak stall in a quiet Seri Kembangan neighborhood has now expanded to serve over 500 customers, and she shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Where it all started

On earlier April 2023, we discovered a humble Indian lady selling nasi lemak from a social media post. We decided to film a short video introducing this place to all social media users.

Friendly Indian Lady Selling Nasi Lemak with Many Toppings at Seri Kembangan – Akka Nasi Lemak @ Seri Kembangan

Indian Nasi Lemak run by a friendly Akka in Seri Kembangan 💁🏽‍♀️😍

📍 Akka Nasi Lemak

In front Hong Leong Bank Jalan PUJ 3/2, Taman Puncak Jalil, Putra Permai, 43300 Seri Kembangan

[6AM-10AM]

Posted by Fun N’ Taste on Monday, 10 April 2023

While editing the video, we realized that the stall did not have any online presence, Google Map address, or even a name.

Hence, we decided to give it the name Akka Nasi Lemak and create a Google Map address so that people could navigate to this stall after watching our video. We called it Akka Nasi Lemak because the owner referred to all her lady customers as ‘Akka.’

The video blew up on our Facebook, TikTok, and even our neglected Instagram account. The stall was then featured on many media platforms such as Astro, THR Raaga, and countless random TikTok users.

The birth of Akka Nasi Lemak

Meet Sangeetha Manimalar, the 34-year-old mother who runs Akka Nasi Lemak. Having a hotel management background, the mother of two has been selling nasi lemak for more than 10 years. However, her stall instantly become a “viral” sensation on social media in the month of April, which falls on the Ramadan month.

Her dishes are abundance, you can find Ayam Masak Merah, Ayam Rendang, Ayam Goreng Berempah, Sambal Kerang and Sambal Sotong. No pork is used or serve in her stall. Furthermore she offers two types of sambal, spicy and normal, as well as two types of rice, namely santan rice and pandan rice.

A warrior in the culinary

Nothing great ever came that easy. According to Sangeetha’s interview in Astro Naavanil, she shared that her husband and children was met in an accident. The children have recovered but her husband is still on a recovering stage. But Sangeetha manages her life and the livelihood of her family with the little money earned.

Snippet from Astro Vaanavil

When “Akka Nasi Lemak” started gaining popularity, it attracts all sort of walks, people around Selangor, KL and even Singapore, to line up starting at 12am just to get a taste of her food, almost equates to celebrity fans camp out for concert tickets.

With a sudden increase of customers, she has already enlisted some extra hands to help her. In particularly, her neighbour who’s a friendly Chinese aunty is helping her as well, without asking for single salary.

Unfazed by nonsense

It’s safe to assume that fame attract haters. Despite some mishaps during the stall, Akka Nasi Lemak is going strong. To ensure everyone customers who line up able to purchase her food, token will be given to everyone and every customer can buy maximum of 5 packets of nasi lemak.

Furthermore, Sangeetha’s news has caught attention of Vice-President of Angkatan Muda Keadilan Malaysia Thiban Subbramaniam to help in registry of her business.

Safe to say, this lady of iron has got things figured out.

If you want to visit Akka Nasi Lemak, her stall is located in front of Restoran Twenty Two. Details as per below:

Are you someone who frequently makes pasta? If yes, then you must be familiar with Kimball Pasta, I bet! If the brand name doesn’t ring a bell, you have undoubtedly seen Kimball’s products on the shelf anytime you walk by the pasta aisle while checking items off your shopping list.

Most of us are familiar with their pasta products and tomato sauce because they are a well-known household name.

Meets the challenge in taste, price, and convenience

Pasta will always be the “to-cook” meal anytime we are too busy to prepare a full meal because it’s simple and easy, as all we need to do is boil the water, cook the pasta and add the sauce.

But when it comes to the taste, how sure are you? Although “taste” is very subjective, it must meet a particular “standard” to ensure that it is acceptable to everyone.

Kimball provides top notch quality pasta products at affordable prices. For those who are just starting out and are unsure where to begin, they have a variety of pasta products.

#SemuaBolehMasak, Kimball encourages everyone to cook

Since we know how simple it is to get Kimball Pasta products, there are no excuses for us NOT TO COOK, right?

In keeping with #SemuaBolehMasak, we learned that there are simple recipes we may use to start cooking with Kimball’s products. I bet any beginner can cook well using these easy recipes too!

And now, we have good news to share with you! Recently, Kimball has launched two new pasta sauces:

These 2 products are the go-to sauces if you are craving for Asian flavored dishes with a twist.

Besides they have created other delicious yet simple recipes specifically for Malaysians, such as Buttermilk Spiral with Beef Sausage & Mixed Vegetables, Spicy Penne Fried Sardine Pasta, and Angel Hair Fried Assam Laksa.

Kimball Aims for Convenience & Versatility in Its Products

Cooking could not possibly be so simple and convenient, especially with Kimball Pasta products.

What are you waiting for? Show off your newly discovered cooking skills to your family and friends!

2. Hot & Spicy

3. Seaweed

Indulge in this bag of umami goodness as you soak in the sun, salt and sea! The flavorful seaweed matches the simple salty taste and enhances the deliciousness of potatoes. 

4. Summer Truffle

If you’re a fan of this “atas” flavour, this is the flavour for you. You can smell a faint truffle aroma upon ripping the bag. Not only that, each chip is generously coated with a dusting of scrumptious flavours from real truffle. 

After buying the Treatz! snacks, remember to keep your receipt and participate in the “Predict Like Peele” contest. Give them your best shot of predictions in conjunction with  FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™.

Are you bored with the same old bar you’ve been patronising? Well, maybe it’s time to scout for a new place in town. 

There’s no shortage of drinking spots in the city, however one with a state-of-the-art robotic arm bartender while you sip and unwind is not that common. 

LAVO in Persiaran Tropicana may be familiar to many bar hoppers. They just recently introduced their very own robotic arm bartender named MixoBot. If you want killer cocktails and a killer bar, then this is the place.

Check Out MixoBot, LAVO’s First Robotic Bartender 

How does it work, you may ask? Well, no joke, MixoBot can ensure a precise mix of ingredient ratio for a perfect glass of cocktail. MixoBot can be programmed by a professional world-class mixologist within minutes to deliver perfect cocktails every time, without fail.

“Flair bartending has always charmed restaurant patrons and MixoBot aims to do exactly that. Bartenders sometimes may not be as precise as a robot. Customers return drinks to the bar station due to ingredients proportioned that might not suit their taste. The returned drinks cost the bar money and we hope the MixoBot is able to help eliminate this problem – not only for us, but for the restaurants MixoBot serves,” shared by Benson Tay, Executive Director of Focus Dynamics, a fast-growing F&B, entertainment and lifestyle group that runs Lavo.

All you need to do is choose from the menu on iPad and let MixoBot do the rest. We can assure you, you are looking at the first robotic flair bartending in PJ where it can shake and mix drinks, just like a real bartender.

With its flexible arm, MixoBot uses cutting-edge technology, incorporating artificial intelligence to gather data, giving people a more precise and more refined drinking experience.

Good news that there are no additional charges when one orders a cocktail mixed by MixoBot. 

So what are you waiting for? Come and experience the MixoBot in-person! Grab a cocktail and a seat, and drink it all in!

Get this aromatic Chili Pan Mee from Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee!

Feature Image Credit: Fun N’ Taste

Chili Pan Mee is usually enjoyed with minced pork, ikan bilis, fried onions topped with a poached egg. It’s traditionally sold with non halal ingredients, which makes Halal Pan Mee a rare sight in the market.

So when we came across Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee, we knew we had to talk about it!

Combining Professions & Love Towards Cooking

Feature Image Credit: Fun N’ Taste

Sylvia Wong and her husband Zac are huge fans of Chili Pan Mee and they want to be able to share this dish with their Muslim friends. 

The couple duo have been in the advertising industry for more than a decade before dipping their toes into selling Chilli Pan Mee. Being a self-described foodie and home cook, their weekends are spent in the kitchen or just out hunting for the next best thing out there to eat. 

“So, I started to experiment with the chili and the marination of the minced chicken. After a few good tries, I finally found the perfect recipe to make this halal version of Chili Pan Mee,” Sylvia said.

Image Credit: Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee

She then shared it with her friends and family and everyone loved it. After much support and encouragement from them, Sylvia and Zac launched Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee at the end of September this year, focusing on home deliveries!

What’s In The Menu?

They only sell two Chili Pan Mee so far:

1) Chili Pan Mee (RM11.90)

Image Credit: Fun N Taste

2) Chili Pan Mee Special (RM13.90)

Image Credit: Fun N Taste

Each Chili Pan Mee comes with minced chicken, thick and springy noodles, poached egg, spinach, ikan bilis, and a scoop of their homemade chilli paste. Whereas for Chili Pan Mee Special it comes with add-on fish balls. 

Chili Pan Mee Special

The traditional minced pork is replaced with minced chicken meat. Moreover, Sylvia confirms that all of the ingredients and sauces used are sourced from halal suppliers. 

The chili was packed with heat. But customers can always choose to require for lesser chili, or just separate the chili so that they can adjust the amount of chili they want to put into the bowl.

Making The Best of Covid-19

Home delivery service has recently gained momentum due to the pandemic. Much to Sylvia and Zac’s advantage, Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee solely does delivery services and operates out of Desa Pandan in KL. 

Since their launch a little over a month ago, they have already sold over 150 bowls of delicious Chili Pan Mee all over KL and Petaling Jaya. This exceeded the initial target of 100 bowls! 

Image Credit: Mak Cik Wong Chili Pan Mee

Sylvia shared “We’ve received a lot of positive reviews and there were also customers who gave us suggestions on how to improve further which we will definitely take note of.”

For those who loves spicy food, this is a definite must-try as it will surely give you a “good kick” in this bowl.

How To Order?

The next time you feel like staying in and ordering from a food delivery service – GrabFood, FoodPanda, or Bungkus It, we’d suggest you to first check out Señor Singh! 

Señor Singh is the only food delivery service in KL that specializes in Indian-Mexican dishes. Relying mainly on the best combination of Indian & Mexican flavours to feed people’s ever changing interest, Señor Singh is looking to create its own niche of adventurous foodies.

You’d be happy to know that Señor Singh shares the same management as Concubine KL, a bar and restaurant in Kwai Chai Hong in Petaling Street.

That means quality is almost assured with their years of expertise in F&B.

Señor Singh’s simple one page menu covers everything from mains, snacks, desserts and drinks – all you need and more for a good meal. Think Chicken Tikka Buritto, Popcorn Chicken Tikka, Kheer and Mango Lassi.

Chicken Tikka Buritto

Burritos are the main offering, choice of Indian flavours – Chicken Tikka, Rogan Josh (Lamb), Paneer (Vegetarian) and Pakora (Vegan) served in a thick chapati wrap.

Paneer Burrito

Every burrito is stuffed with choices of proteins and bases of Biryani Rice and unique fillings – Raita, Crispy Shallots, Lime Acar, Mint Chutney, Red Chutney, Mango Chutney, Veggie Pakora, Spinach, Onion Bhaji, Saag and Smokey Brinjal.

Burrito Rogan Josh

While the variety is limited, the portion of each burrito is more than reasonable which results in a super flavourful and satisfying meal.

The Paratha Quesadilla is a plate of Paratha stuffed with Cheese, Onion, Green Chili, Coriander and Garam Massala. Despite being a vegetarian snack, the Indian flavours does delicious justice to this classic dish in all its cheesy glory

The Popcorn Chicken Tikka meanwhile is texturally refreshing with all its crunchy goodness and tandoori flavours! 

Popcorn Chicken Tikka

As for dessert, the simple and only option is Kheer – a classic Indian Rice pudding that’s both sweet and creamy.

Mango Lassi is the only choice of thirst-quenchers at Señor Singh which was the ideal conclusion for countering the spiciness and flavours.

All in all, the flavours and textures were expertly executed, especially the Chapathi Burritos. There’s plenty of potential, Señor Singh will likely become a well respected name in the F&B scene.

10 Best Steak House In Town That Serves Juicy Steak https://funntaste.com/10-best-steak-house-in-town-that-serves-juicy-steak/ Thu, 20 Feb 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://funntaste.com/?p=161083 Steak is serious business!

Redang Beach is the hot spot of Sekinchan and visited by many. One of the main attraction you would come across is the famous Sekinchan Wishing Tree.

Living in the city, there’s no time or way that you can possibly fly a kite. Being a popular site for kite-flying, purchase a kite from the local vendors and learn how to fly one. The wind is known to be quite strong here so if kite-flying is ever on your bucket list, this would be the place and time for you to check that out from your list.

6. Eat giant mangoes at Mango King

Located nearby the Paddy Processing Factory, you would come across a small business selling mangoes and other assorted fruits as well, such as guavas, soursops and many more.

The best time to visit Sekinchan would be in June and December. It takes almost 110 days before the paddy gets harvested and it being known, paddy is planted twice a year. So if you plan on coming all the way to Sekinchan to witness the paddy fields, it is advisable to come during the said months. But besides that, you can learn all about how rice is processed during the tour. Although you’d be charged with a small fee to join the tour, it is definitely a once in a while experience.

8. Stock up on your favourite keropok

Although KL may be a pricey place, it definitely has its good sides. With plenty of malls and theme parks around, be sure to be a broke bloke by the end of the week. However fret not ‘cause we are here to let you know that there are plenty of fun things and activities you can partake in without spending too much.

This is the guide where you can take your significant other for a date that isn’t movies and dinner!

1. Climb Up Batu Caves

Image Creidt: mole.my
Image Credit: Life WareHouse

Being one of Selangor’s iconic spots, this pilgrimage site recently underwent a major transformation and it turned out beautiful as ever. This 272 rainbow-step transformation took only 3 days to complete and it is one of the reasons why you should pay the place a visit.

2. Picnic At KLCC Park

Image Credit: kuala-lumpur.ws

KLCC’s Park is one of the popular parks in town, mainly ‘cause of its location. Prepare yourself a picnic and just chil under the shady trees and enjoy the surrounding. Being one of the busiest city, take this chance to wind down and relax as you and nature become one.

3. Visit Petronas Art Gallery

Image Credit: eratoptravel.com

While you’re at KLCC, head inside the mall and visit the art gallery. It holds local art pieces that goes with several different themes such as the Daerah Samad, 50 Ways to Live in Malaysia, Building Merdeka and many more. An oil and gas company promoting art? Well, that’s already an artistic move right there.

4. Free Dataran Merdeka Heritage Guided Tour

Image Credit: travelhubkl.com
Image Credit: travelhub.com

Curious about the history behind of our city? Then this is the tour you should consider. Enjoy an immersive experience that showcases the best-preserved parts of colonial KL that lasts for only 2.5hours. To be frank, I’d opt that anytime in comparison to having to sit in class ? This tour shows you the hidden-in-plain-sight gems of the city, something you’d never even seen coming! Never too late for another history lesson, guys!

EDIT: 21 March 2019
Effective 1 May 2018, these guided walks are no longer available as KL Tourism Bureau has decided to terminate it indefinitely.

5. Nature Trail At KL Forest Eco Park

Jungle-trekking is one of those things everyone has in their bucket list. And if you haven’t check that out yet, then probably it is time. Being the oldest protected jungle in Malaysia, the park holds short trails that are suitable for beginners.

6. Test Your Artistic Mind At The National Art Gallery

Image Credit: expedia.com
Image Credit: expatgo.com

Being home to several of the nation’s leading artists and designers, you should make it a point to visit the gallery at least once. Although there are plenty of free museums in KL, this is the place you get to find all things related to theatre. It also features experimental works and touring exhibitions which makes it one of the most eminent galleries in the city.

7. Window Shop At KL’s Prime Malls

Image Credit: visionkl.com
Image Credit: ajmi.com.my

Hop from one mall to another since everything is just a walking distance away. Equipped with plenty of sophisticated brands, KL malls are where you should be to window shop. Although you may sometimes may not be able to contain yourself, but hey, a purchase is always a gain am I right?

8. Wander Through Petaling Street

Image Credit: VIA FLICKR / ARBRON

Another one stop destination that is perfect for window shopping. Being a shopping paradise for tourists, there’s no harm done to pretend to be one sometimes. It is a undercover market full of tourist tat for sale which is fun place to wonder, if you are in KL. The atmosphere may be chaotic but it is certainly something you don’t get to witness everyday.

9. Take A Walk Around Botanic Park

Image Credit: @cix_aini & @xunlei98

Stroll around the botanic park and see what Mother Nature has to offer. Often, you can witness professional photographers capturing stunning photos of a new married couple. It is definitely a sight of sore eyes. Plus, take a break from all the pollution and take a breath of fresh air while you’re here. Think of it as a cleanser.

10. Plant A Tree With Free Tree Society

Shahrin Yahya/The Edge

Want to leave your mark and give back to the community? Then this is the perfect place for you to do so! The Free Tree Society gives away free plants in an effort to encourage the community to plant trees and preserve nature. Volunteer during their planting days as well helping to distribute seedlings once sprouted to locations around Klang Valley. This is certainly an activity you can do yourself, with a friend or even your whole family.

11. Visit The National Monument

Image Credit: depositphotos.com

This is the place that commemorates the fallen soldiers who gave their lives for freedom. The sculpture is a centrepiece of the monument that was designed by an Austrian sculptor back in 1966. Sometimes, history can be one of the most interesting topic to learn even when you’ve already graduated high school.

12. Visit The National Mosque of Malaysia

Image Credit: kuala-lumpur.attractionsinmalaysia.com

Being a multicultural country, we are all living in a respectful environment towards one another’s religion. That being said, step foot into this holy ground that is known for its origami-like design. Enjoy the serenity of the place that is full of flora and fauna, giving you a sense of peace in mind.

13. Take A Stroll At Street Art Spots At Jalan Alor, Kuala Lumpur

One of the very popular tourist destinations for street food and seafood, Jalan Alor was given a “new life” with a beautification project by DBKL. The alley behind the old buildings were decorated with flora and fauna artworks, including a stream inspired from Alor Stream that used to flow in the area almost 100 years ago. If you love taking photographs, be sure to visit this place!

Lai Ching Yuen is one of the few Cantonese restaurants in a hotel that still serves pork, preserving its essence as an authentic Cantonese restaurant. Last year, we tried their all-you-can-eat dim sum and it was amazing. This time we’re back there to taste some of their signature pork dishes.

A whole Roasted Suckling Pig here costs RM500+ and it is seriously one of the things you got to try. The one we had weighed 1KG and can be shared up to 6 people. It was nicely roasted; the pork had a perfect crisp with great texture and flavour. Do note that this dish is super addictive, if you have one you’ll like keep chowing down more.

If you are keen to try this dish, it is advised to make a reservation as they don’t serve it every day.

Another popular item at Lai Ching Yuen is the Claypot Pork Belly With Salted Fish, where pork belly is cooked in high heat with ginger, a generous amount of scallions and red onion for a bit of texture.

The pork belly slices were juicy and came with enough fat for flavour. Since it was cooked with salted fish, this dish can be a bit one-dimensional in terms flavour—salty, therefore it is best to tone down the saltiness by pairing it with a bowl of white rice.

Next up, we also sampled their Char Siew or Cantonese Style BBQ Pork. As simple as it looks, this is one of our favourite dishes here. There was a good balance of savoury and sweet flavour. We also liked that they are very generous with the meat, it was thick and chunky!

Of course we can’t leave Lai Ching Yuen without ordering their house special Dimsum.

Aside from Siew Mai, we had Deep Fried Bun with Lean Pork. We really liked how crisp and tasty the skin was, and the pork was also nicely seasoned and juicy.

If you’re looking for a new restaurant to dine in Kuala Lumpur, head over to Wizards At Tribeca.

The restaurant is only a year old, but they are already popular in the Internet space. Not only they have over 200 Google reviews and strong Instagram presence, the restaurant is manned by the experienced team who founded the famed Yellow Brick Road and The Red Beanbag.

The décor has a minimalist modern décor and ceiling-to-floor open windows, which allows warm lightings for better photo.

Wizards serve a seasonal menu of brunch, lunch and coffee in the daytime. We were in Wizards in mid-December to try out some of their all-day dining options.

Most of the dishes we had were recommended by the co-owner, Shaun so it’s safe to say that these are their signature items.

We enjoyed most of it, especially the Unagi Benedict. It’s essentially Egg Benedict, topped with avocado, poached eggs, barbecue Unagi and Sansho pepper.

For those looking for something unique and unconventional, this is the dish for you. We liked the Japanese twist of this brunch dish. Surprisingly Unagi and egg pairs very well together. On top of that, the portion was just nice. Overall, we found this combination rich and deeply satisfying.

We have also tried out the Taro Mish Mash and Cheesy Chilli Scramble Eggs, both good in their own right.

Taro Mish Mash comes with sourdough bread, topped with diced avocado pesto, tomato salsa, feta cheese and not to forget some pouched egg.

Sounds like a perfect brunch dish, and indeed it was. The runny egg yolk paired well with the velvety taro mash, we enjoyed it as it gives a sweet plus savoury flavour in one spoonful.

Cheesy Chilli Scramble Eggs didn’t impress us that much compared to the two dishes above. We felt the flavours of cheese and chili can be stronger, nonetheless, it’s a decent dish for those who like something heavy for breakfast.

Polenta Extravaganza took us by surprise. It’s actually a Polenta based pizza, topped with creamy mushroom dexelles, olives and truffles. The mixture of different mushrooms is savoury and delicious — and pairs well with the creamy herbed polenta

For dessert, we tried something inspired by Chinese cuisine, the Golden Molten Lava. The dish was created because of the co-founder’s obsession towards “Liu Sha Bao”, which translate to salted egg custard bun.

If chocolate is not your favourite, do try their Mango Mille Feuille. The sweetness is just right for our liking too so there’s no guilt involved in this sweet treat.

All in all, it was a pleasant experience and we were quite satisfied with the food. Special thanks to Shaun from Wizards At Tribeca for hosting us.

Junior Chellapa is a stylish Indian restaurant that specializes in authentic North and South Indian dishes. The restaurant boasts a beautiful décor, quality service and ingredients which is reflected in the dishes price.

Located at the 100-year-old Old Malaya Heritage Building in Lorong Raja Chulan, the most attention grabbing thing about Junior Chellapa is the restaurant’s beautiful Indian themed murals.

If you chose to dine outside, you can enjoy an uninterrupted view of the KL tower.

The menu at Junior Chellapa comprises dishes from both Northern and Southern regions. You can expect a variety of naan, tandoori, poultries, seafood, biryanis and desserts here.

We started our meal with the highly recommended house special Lamb Ribs (RM39), which comes with 3 pieces of New Zealand ribs cooked in tomato masala gravy. The lamb ribs itself was flavourful and fall-off-bone tender, while the gravy was unbelievably thick. We personally felt this dish went well with their Pudina Naan (RM8).

No Indian meal is complete without Palak Paneer (RM18), a classic North Indian vegetarian dish made from blended spinach, lots of ghee, spices, and generous blocks of cottage cheese. The chef certainly didn’t hold back on the ghee, making the gravy thick, flavourful and rich.

The Chicken Pasanda (RM39) came highly recommended by the owners. It is made with chicken tenderized in yoghurt, chillies, cumin, and peppercorns, then cooked in the creamy pasanda sauce. If you prefer something more tame, this dish is right up your alley.

One of Junior Chellapa’s best signature dish is the Exotic Tandoor & Hot Platter (Senior)(RM80), a sharing dishes that could serve up to 4 -5 people. It’s basically a variety of tandoor meat dishes – chicken tikka, fish tikka, malai tikka, seekh kebab, grilled prawns, and grilled squid.

All ingredients were fresh and flavoursome. We personally felt the prawns are the best part of this dishes as the tandoori flavours was perfectly immersed.

Moving onto the seafood dishes, we also sampled the Sultani Grilled Prawns (RM39), Chellapa’s Pomfret (RM48), and Nandu Rasam (RM12). Chellapa’s Pomfret felt a tad dry because we expected the fish to be moist and soft. Nonetheless, the flavouring was good and had a good spicy kick.

Wash down all the spices with Mango Lassi (RM9) and Lime Juice (RM9).

RED by Sirocco is one of the latest four-star boutique hotels to open in town, located along Jalan Kamunting in the Chow Kit area of Kuala Lumpur. The nearest train station to this trendy hotel is Dang Wangi LRT station. For those who dread driving, you can choose to travel around the city with the LRT train.

It’s also noteworthy to mention that surrounding the hotel are some of KL’s most popular eateries such as Yut Kee Restaurant, Kin Kin Pan Mee and Mohd Yaseen Penang Nasi Kandar.

RED By Sirocco is under M101 Holdings new ownership and the hotel is recently awarded with the Malaysia Book of Records for “The Tallest Mural in Malaysia”.

This stunning mural was painted by Malaysia graffiti artist Kenji Chai who was born in Sabah. It took him 10 hours to paint the mural daily and completed it in 21 days.

Standing at 25 floors tall, RED By Sirocco has 143 rooms, 2 dining outlets, a massage bar, a rooftop infinity pool and a well equipped fitness centre.

Checking In

Spanning at 472 square feet, the Deluxe Room is very spacious, cosy and adequate, well equipped with necessities such as vanity table, LED flat screen TV, safe box, rain shower, and the super comfortable bed where we spent our time working on our videos and website.

Among all, the most attractive in-room complimentary benefits are the classic Chinese tea set and Cafés  Richard coffee machine, all refillable every day during your stay.

The balcony gives a fantastic view of the iconic KL tower, undoubtedly the highlight of the room.

Facilities

The rooftop infinity pool of RED by Sirocco enjoys one of the best views in Kuala Lumpur. Its location on the 25th floor offers uninterrupted views of KL tower as well as Petronas Twin Towers.  The pool is only open from 7AM to 7PM.

The Rouge Club is a club lounge in RED by Sirocco and it is located alongside the infinity pool. Be sure to drop by here for their wide range of cocktails and alcohols.

At the lower ground floor, beside the concierge is BARkery, a bakery house where you can get freshly baked pastries as well as coffee and beverages.

For those who would like to have a rejuvenating experience, their on-site massage bar is a must visit. Named The Rub Bar, the massage bar is the perfect place to relax after a long day of touristing around KL.

The environment of The Rub Bar is calm and soothing, and you could really enjoy yourself with the massage offered here by their friendly staff.

Verdict

All in all, we enjoyed our 3 days 2 nights staycation at RED by Sirocco. The hotel is in a quiet private street, it made us feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of KL city but central enough to reach the main sights and attractions in only minutes by foot.

The hotel’s highlights are the rooftop bar and cozy massage bar—be sure to save some time to enjoy it.

Thanks to the RED by Sirroco team for arranging this stay.

The Majapahit in Arcoris Mont Kiara serves traditional and modern fusion of Southeast Asian cuisine. Despite marketing themselves as a Thai-Indonesian restaurant, the menu also made up of other Southeast Asian dishes from Malaysia and Vietnam.

To ensure the authenticity of its food, The Majapahit appointed an Indonesian chef who has extensive cooking experience for more than 25 years in Indonesian cuisine. On top of that, the chef previously served at the award-winning Thai restaurant Ginger in Kuala Lumpur.

The restaurant’s high ceiling, extensive windows and pleasant decor allows lots of room for natural light and beautiful Instagram pictures.

In order to enjoy The Majapahit dishes to the fullest, it is best to come here in big groups, ideally among 4 to 6 person because many items on the menu are meant for sharing. For instance the Satay of Southeast Asia (RM52), Curry Galore (RM52), The Royal Wings (RM48).

Satay of Southeast Asia

The platter comes with Balinese fish satay, Malaysian chicken satay, Indonesian beef satay and Vietnamese sugarcane prawn with homemade dipping sauces.

Curry Galore

Feast on four signature curry in The Majapahit; Thai Red Curry Beef, Thai Green Curry Chicken, Indonesian Squid Curry and Malaysian Prawn Curry served with chapati bread and cassava crackers.

The Royal Wings

A trio of juicy chicken wings tossed in Indonesian Sweet Sauce, Malaysian Spicy Sambal and Thai Sauce.

Sharing dishes are also available here for “tai chou” style dining experience. For butter chicken fans, their Coconut Butter Chicken (RM25) is highly suggested. Here, the butter gravy was cooked with margarine, cream, and coconut milk. As a result the dish is more thick and flavoured packed compared with the regular butter chicken.

Tom Yam is a must when it comes to Thai food, and The Majapahit’s Spicy Seafood Tom Yam (RM32) was exceptional. We presumed that the spiciness would be toned down because of its expatriate demographic, turns out we were wrong. A generous amount of prawns, squids and fishes submerged in the spicy soup which was fragrant with lemongrass and kaffir lime.

One of the restaurant’s signature dish is the iconic Crispy Flying Fish (RM52). The fish was presented beautifully and deep fried till crispy, served together with sweet and spicy dark sauce.

Thai Stir-fried Baby Kailan (RM29) 

Vietnamese Drip Coffee (RM13)

Overall, it was a positive experience and we were quite satisfied with the food and service despite the fact this was an invited review. So, if you’re looking for somewhere special to celebrate a birthday, an anniversary or a special gathering, The Majapahit Restaurant is a good option.

If you’re a cheese lover living around the Klang Valley, chances are you’ve heard of Restaurant Cheese Banjir. As the name suggests, this restaurant is known for its generous amounts of cheese served in almost every dish. They first became popular because of its controversial Cheese Durian Milo Kaw which was made popular by various online media.

We sampled the outrages Beef Meatza Add on Cheese & Add on Toppings (8 Slices, RM103). Instead of Pizza dough, Cheese Banjir uses 100% Beef for the base. If you have a religious obligation to avoid consuming beef, Cheese Banjir also offers Lamb base.

As you could tell by looking at the picture, an overwhelming amount of Cheddar Cheese and Mozzarella Cheese is added in the pizza. Cheese is also stuffed inside the meat base before baking and grilling, hence every bite is guaranteed to give you good amounts of cheese and meat.

Needless to say, if you’re a meat lover or cheese lover you’ll find this dish super enjoyable. Portion wise, this 8 piece Meatza with Add ons could easily fill up 8 – 10 people.

Since its durian season and everyone is going crazy over it, we decided to give their new dessert, Pulut Durian Tergolek (RM69/3-4PAX) a try. This dessert is topped with pulut, two scoops of vanilla ice cream, 12 huge chunks of D24 Durians fruits, chocolate drizzles and santan.

It’s basically a monster-upgrade rendition durian sticky rice served with vanilla ice cream. While it’s commonly available in Thailand, according to the owner you can only find this dessert at Cheese Banjir restaurant as of now.

Cheese Banjir also serve great pasta here as well but with limited choices. Spaghetti Sotong (RM30) was vibrant and brimming with flavours. It had a hint of spiciness that lights up the creamy sauce. Quite delicious especially when paired with their fried sotong.

A visit to Cheese Banjir wouldn’t be complete without trying their famous Lamb Grill The Hulk Cheese Banjir (RM40). The Lamb was surprisingly quite thick and tender, and the meat’s seasoning hit the spot nicely – good enough to be eaten on its own. However the overflowing of cheese sauce certainly helped enhance this dish.

Yes, we managed to sample the controversial Cheese Durian Milo Kaw (RM25). Despite the unorthodox ingredients which make it sound gross, we personally enjoyed the heck out of it. There was something about the combination of Milo and Cheese which gives a gratifying taste. This drink came with 3 huge chucks of Real D24 Durian fruits which acts more of a dessert to the drink.

Cheese Banjir also has its fair share of “normal” food for those who crave ordinary taste. The Asam Pedas Fish with Rice (RM16) was unbelievably spicy but still pretty and we enjoyed it thoroughly. If you have a low heat tolerance you better not order this.

Despite the secluded location Sulaiman Cendol is one of the most popular eateries in Kuala Lumpur. This legendary cendol stall has been operating for over 35 years and is commonly regarded as one of the best foods in eat around Pudu.

In case you’re wondering, yes that’s not Uncle Sulaiman whom you’d usually expect to see. We visited this stall during the long Hari Raya Holiday, hence Uncle Sulaiman had gone back to his hometown. Taking his place is a charismatic young chap who works at a super-fast pace. We found him to be extremely approachable, friendly and accommodating to our video and photography.

Prices are quite cheap as a Cendol Biasa cost RM1.40 each. It’s probably the cheapest cendol in Kuala Lumpur. However do set your expectations straight as this basic bowl comes with absolutely no toppings besides the green jelly.

You’re much better off spending an extra 60cents for Cendol Special @ RM2 which comes with generous amounts of toppings. The strong flavours from fresh toppings boost the flavours making the Cendol Special much more delicious than the latter. The ratio of coconut milk to palm sugar was perfect and the level of sweetness was spot on.

Impressed with the Cendol Special, we decided to give ABC @ RM2.50 a try. We enjoyed the generous amounts of toppings which includes multi-colored pears, peanuts and jelly cubes. Portion wise, it’s enough to feed 2 people.

If you’re coming here expecting to be blown away by the Cendol you will go home disappointed. Don’t get us wrong, the Cendol and ABC was quite delicious but not special enough to warrant a special trip to Pudu. Nevertheless, if you are nearby this particular area, it’s certainly worth a try.

At RM2 Per Bowl with the generous amounts of toppings, we’d say it’s certainly value for money and a good refreshing treat to enjoy during a hot day.

Lai Ching Yuen is one of the very few top notch Cantonese restaurants in Kuala Lumpur that serves high quality all-you-can-eat dim sum. With over 50 types of handcrafted delights and an affordable price tag of RM74 per pax, Lai Ching Yuen’s ala-carte all-you-can-eat dim sum is a steal.

Despite it is a buffet concept, the dim sum is not placed at a designated corner for you to retrieve. Instead, you place your order on the order chit and give it to the waiters, which is a plus point as you don’t have to snatch your food with other people.

Variety wise, the dim sum menu is divided into 6 categories, steamed dim sum, deep fried dim sum, baked dim sum, porridge, steamed rice rolls (chee cheong fun) and desserts.

Steamed Siew Mai with Fish Roe – the size of this is bigger than what’s usually served in Chinese coffee shop. The skin was soft and firm and did not break when lifted with chopsticks. The meat inside tasted real and not frozen and Fish Roe was a nice touch.

Steamed Prawn Dumpling – delicious and a must try here. One of the best value as well if you intend to get your money’s worth.

Steam BBQ Pork Bun – as simple as it looks, this is one of our favourite dishes here. We enjoyed the bun’s soft texture and smooth and savory filling.

Steam Glutinous Rice with Lard Meat – although it doesn’t come with lotus leaf, it was still packed with a punch of flavours and aroma.

Deep-fried Bean Curd Roll with Shrimp – those who love fried dim sum or prawns should try this best-seller.

Steamed Custard Bun With Egg Yolk – the custard filling was runny and beautifully flows out as you tear the soft buns. The salted egg yolk was rich and delicious and we were pleasantly surprised with the amount of fillings used.

Deep-Fried Yam Puff

Pan-Fried Bun with Salted Fish

Pan-Fried Pork Dumpling Chive

Steamed Rice Roll With Preserved Vegetables And Meat

Steamed Spinach Dumpling With Preserved Vegetables

Steamed Rice Rolls With Shrimp

Szechuan Style Steamed Wanton

Steamed Dumpling Soup with Assorted Seafood

Pan-Fried Tofu with Chilli Flakes

Verdict

Overall it was a satisfying feast, especially for the price you’re paying. The dim sums here are no doubt delicious and top notch quality. Furthermore service was efficient as the chefs are quite knowledgeable with their product.

Lai Ching Yuen is also one of the few Cantonese restaurants in a hotel that still serves pork, preserving its essence as an authentic Cantonese restaurant.

Think about some of the most popular Nasi Lemak in Kuala Lumpur, chances are you might name Nasi Lemak Wanjo. Located in Kampung Baru, this humble eatery is famous among locals during breakfast and supper as they operate from early morning until late night.

Formerly known as Nasi Lemak Mak Wanjo, the restaurant has been operating for 55 years as they started as a regular roadside stall. Today Nasi Lemak Wanjo is highly regarded as the best Nasi Lemak in Kuala Lumpur.

Much like most Nasi Lemak stalls, you will be served a standard plate of santan rice and essential ingredients ikan bilis , boiled egg and cucumber. Feel free to request for more rice or sambal as you will not be charged extra for it. And lastly, you proceed with the side dishes of your choice.

Nasi Lemak with Fried Chicken and Sotong Sambal (RM11)

Two of the better side dish here are the Sambal Sotong and Fried chicken. The fried chicken had a wonderful smell, moist and tender on the inside. The Sambal Sotong on the other hand is cooked to the right tenderness. The sotong sizes were quite big and the sambal here was quite spicy.

Nasi Lemak Wanjo don’t skimp out on the portion of Sotong and the sizes of each sotong was quite big compared to other nasi lemak eateries.

The sambal by Nasi Lemak Wanjo is the sweet type but if you are a spicy sambal lover, don’t be put off by that. It tasted absolutely delicious, mildly spicy and paired well with the aromatic santan rice. And if you are yearning for a spicy kick, their sambal sotong is a must to order. The sotong was fresh and tender and we loved how the sotong soaked up the sambal that was cooked in it.

Price wise, we wouldn’t call it cheap since it is an authentic Nasi Lemak spot at Kampung Baru. But at least it was reasonable enough as we took 2 side dishes and we feel you get what you paid for. Moreover, it taste absolutely delicious hence we don’t mind the price tag,

Edit: We also tried the popular Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa which was mere walking distance away. Truth to be told, taste-wise is wasn’t up to par hence we decided it’s not worth reviewing.

Meat The Porkers had always been on our MUST TRY Indian restaurant list. Fortunately for us, the founder Mr. Herukh recently invited us to sample some of the restaurant’s classic as well as some new dishes.

If we are not mistaken, Meat The Porkers is the first Porky Indian restaurant in Malaysia and possibly Southeast Asia. Think of the place to get your pork craving fixed, Indian style. Mr. Herukh is also the brain behind the popular Fierce Curry House which is why we knew the food here is going to be freaking delicious.

Mr. Herukh explained to us on how each pork cuts are carefully selected to compliment the nature of a particular dish. Simply put, Meat The Porkers does not simply add pork in Indian dishes just for the sake of being unique. Instead, multiple research and development is done before selecting a pork cut for a particular dish.

The Tandoori Pork Ribs (RM48) is a perfect example of Meat The Porkers executing a porky infused dish perfectly. The pork ribs was quite tender and well marinated, we can even taste the strong tandoori flavours inside the pork’s flesh. We thought this was one of the best dishes in the restaurant as we enjoy the well marinated flavours and tenderness of the pork ribs.

While the Tandoori Pork Ribs was flavourful on its own, it is still served with traditional mint sauce, homemade tamarind sauce and shredded coconut.

Unlike most tandoori dishes in restaurant, the tandoori pork ribs at Meat The Porkers are freshly roasted in the clay oven upon ordering. This will ensure the tandoori flavours is fresh well marinated inside the flesh.

We were told by Mr. Herukh that Tandoori Pork Ribs was one of the hardest dishes to get right. The rib doesn’t stay on the metal stick while coking in the tandoori oven, hence a potato is impaled at the edge of the metal to ensure the ribs stays on the stick while cooking.

Of course, to complete Tandoori experience we had their Bacon Cheese Naan (RM15). This is yet another dish where pork-infusion done right. The bacon and cheese adds much needed dept and flavours. The naan was delightfully tasty and amazingly crispy just the way we love it.

One of the most known dish is Siew Yoke Biryani Rice (RM28) which went viral last year due to its uniqueness. Thanks to the viral effect and taste to back it up, this dish is still going strong today.  Taste-wise, the rice was fluffy and aromatic as it was infused with strong spices. The siew yoke was tender and was well-infused in the biryani flavours.

The crispy part of siew yoke was served separately to avoid it from turning soggy during the cooking process. Overall, we were satisfied with the Siew Yoke Briyani and we could see why it is so popular.

Palak Paneer (RM22) and Pork Rogan Josh (RM28) was pretty alright as well. We loved the addition of feta cheese as it blended well with the Palak Paneer’s consistency. The Pork Rogan Josh was a little too spicy to our liking but still quite flavourful.

Another gravy-based dish we had was the Butter Pork (RM30). Taste-wise, this was one of the dish we’ve tried in Meat the Porkers. The pork was cooked to perfection with roasted tomato, butter and spices which resulted in a thick and creamy texture. It was mildly spicy and just one sip of this amazing gravy was enough to tantalize our taste buds.

As a part of their new menu, Meat the Porkers is introducing a number of Mexican influenced dishes such as Chicken 65 Tacos (RM30).

In hindsight we probably should have gotten the porky taco instead of chicken. Anyway, the Chicken 65 Taco is stuffed with boneless chicken, chunks of homemade sauce and Mexican tomato salsa. We found the chicken to be nicely seasoned and cooked well as it was quite tender and flavourful.

If you are looking for a short makan trip in Kuala Lumpur complete with accommodation, you might want to check out Tamu Hotel & Suites. Tamu Hotel & Suites is a 4 Star Business-Class Hotel located in the heart of Kampung Baru. While it doesn’t seem like much on the outside, the view from the rooms and infinity pool was simply stunning.

It is strategically located in Kampung Baru which is relatively known to feature some of the best Malay food in Kuala Lumpur such as Nasi Lemak Wanjo, Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa, Apam Balik Nusantara and lots more.

We were pleasantly surprise by the top notch service here especially for a 4 star hotel. The staffs here were polite, welcoming and super accommodating. We stayed at Tamu Hotel and Suites for 3 days and 2 nights and needless to say, we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience.

From what we’ve gathered, a standard room starts from RM218 while a junior suite starts from RM319. We stayed in the junior suite which came with stunning views of both the Twin Towers and KL Tower.

In addition to the basic amenities such as such as an electric kettle, air conditioning, 2 LED flat screen TV, safe box, shower, cupboard, complimentary WiFi, prayer mat is also provided in every room for Muslim guests.

The only thing we were extremely unhappy about the room is the lack of internet connection. Not only it was pretty slow, the WiFi signal is unreachable in the sleeping room. We spoke to the hotel about it and they are aware of the short comings and are apparently working to fix it. Hence by the time you read this, the WiFi would be a non-issue.

The bathroom has all the basic bath products needed for your stay. This huge bathroom features a bath tub and a super strong pressured rain shower system. The water heater worked efficiently and was beyond our expectations so there is nothing to complain about.

One of the best things about Tamu Hotel is the view and the massive infinity pool. The pool is located at the 14th floor, it should impress you with Kuala Lumpur’s amazing Twin Tower and KL Tower view. The pool has a roof hence even if it rains, you can still swim without a worry. Currently, the pool is only opened from 7AM – 7PM.

Tamu Hotel is still in its infancy stage hence many restaurants isn’t opened yet. However, the coffee house at the lobby, dubbed Tamu Junction is opened 24 hours and has typical dishes like Nasi Lemak and Curry Noodles.

The food here was quite disappointing as service was super slow and taste was just so-so. We highly recommend to try out the neighbouring restaurants such as Nasi Lemak Wanjo, Durian Cendol, Suriya Thai just to name a few.

Verdict

Overall, our 3 days 2 night staycation at Tamu Hotel was enjoyable. Although their F&B area isn’t strong, the massive infinity pool and beautiful room view certainly makes this hotel desirable.  If you value comfort over price, Tamu Hotel is probably for you.

We are quite sure Tamu Hotel will continue to be among the best choices for accommodation in Kuala Lumpur for the years to come.

If you are seeking for an Indian-style Claypot Curry Rice, you might want to check out Satti Sorru stall which operates at Ban Heng Chinese coffee shop. Indian claypots dishes are a rare find, especially ones that offers exotic meat such as Monitor Lizard and Wild boar.

If the number of claypots one the stove is a measure for success for this business, then this stall is winning tremendously as each stove is always occupied with at least one claypot.

The workers here were quite friendly and accommodating to our camera. If you’re lucky, the cooking will be done by the boss himself.

There are 4 types of Claypot curries you can choose – Monitor Lizard (RM15), Mutton (RM12), Wild Boar (RM10) and Chicken (RM8). Naturally we opted for the Monitor Lizard as it is a rare find around the Klang Valley.

We must say, watching the cooking process of this Indian Claypot Curry Rice was certainly therapeutic. Each Claypot dish is cooked with creamy masala paste, pineapple, onions, Indian spices, your choice of meat, and rice. If you have low heat tolerance you can request for less spicy version as dishes are cooked to order.

Upon taking the first bite, it was apparently that the dish was rich and flavourful. It had a strong spicy kick and an overall moist texture. The dish lacks long lasting heat as only gas stove was used. We personally found the monitor lizard’s to be extremely bony and felt we should have opt for the wild boar instead.

It took about 15 minutes for our dish to arrive because we are the first customer. Apparently it usually takes over 30 minutes to be serve as the boss has lots of orders.

Verdict

All in all, Satti Sorru did not disappoint for us as it was cooked by the boss himself. Although we weren’t impressed with the monitor lizard, at least our curiosity was fulfilled so we had no regrets.

While there is certainly no shortage of Claypot Chicken Rice dishes in the Klang Valley, it can be quite tough to find a significantly good one. Most claypot rice here are either too mushy, or lacked of aroma in our opinion.

So when we found out about Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice we jumped to try it as it is widely regarded as one of the best-tasting Claypot Chicken Rice in Kuala Lumpur.

Located near the Pudu wet market at Jalan Yew, Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice has been around for more than 30 years. The restaurant was founded by Madam Heun, a friendly auntie who started off with a small hawker stall at the Petaling Jaya Old Town wet market.

Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice still uses charcoal stove used charcoal stoves to cook the rice. Apparently, using charcoal makes a significant difference in the taste as it gives the dish an overall better flavour and aroma.

A standard bowl of Claypot Chicken Rice (S) (RM12.50) with added egg (RM1.50) and extra chinese sausages (RM5) was enough to be shared between the two of us. However if you are a big eater we highly suggest you opt for the medium portion which cost RM22.

As we mix everything in the claypot while it was still pipping hot, a strong and smoky aroma hits us hard. Although we opt for extra chinese sausage, the restaurant was quiet generous with their chicken meat. Salted fish is given separately on top of the rice.

Taste-wise, the rice was soft and fluffy, with each grain distinct and moist but not mushy. The chicken pieces in the claypot were well marinated with flavours of soy, sesame oil, chinese wine and a hint of ginger. Although we added the entire salted fish the saltiness wasn’t too overpowering. In fact it gave a good balance of salty flavour and enhanced the overall dish.

We notice that the Claypot Chicken Rice was piping hot throughout our entire meal. We believe this must be the benefit of cooking over charcoal as the heat tends to remain longer.

While you are here, try the Pig Stomach Soup (RM11) to go with our rice. It was a light but flavorsome soup that balance out the heat from the claypot rice.

Verdict

Simply put, Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice is one of (if not) the best Claypot Chicken Rice in Kuala Lumpur. The claypot dishes here was perfectly cooked and taste quite delicious. The only downside of this restaurant is that it is cooked by foreigners as Madam Heun already passed down the skills to her workers.

Nonetheless, they were skillful in their craft and needless to say we will visit Heun Kee again. We will probably have the Waxed Duck Pot Rice as we were told it is pretty good.
