This is true, so when CS and I had spent the weekend re-painting our house, we treated ourselves to herbal-rich Bak Kut Teh. Not in Klang, but in Shah Alam’s Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh. Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh wasn’t a new find. My ex-company was in the area, and this Bak Kut Teh was the go-to place when […]

This, and in addition to local who have great love for chicken rice, sums up to long queues and price increase for Malacca Hainanese Chicken Rice. People who got fed up with the exorbitant charges, like me, tends to seek for alternative options. The last trip we were in […]

I asked Wendy for a recommendation of steamboat and the answer was the newly opened Hometown Steamboat in SS2. Hometown Steamboat is a new addition to SS2, but it actually hailed from Bandar Menjalara, ground zero for steamboats. Feels like quite a […]

Bone & Pot is our usual favourite, but we decided to try a new place. Dian Huo Xin Wo Steamboat Restaurant had stayed pretty much off my ‘foodie-radar’ for years. It’s former location  at SS4  played a […]

Many independent dim sum houses had come and go, after failing to impress aplenty of disgruntled customers. When Zok Noodle House opened their branch in Setia Alam, we were ecstatic cause we had already tried them (Puchong HQ) and liked it. Finally! […]

]]> MKP Lam Mee 淋面 @ Uptown Petaling Jaya http://eatophilia.com/foodmkp-lam-mee-uptown-pj/ Thu, 23 Mar 2017 08:53:21 +0000 http://eatophilia.com/?p=5465 I hardly like Lam Mee (淋面). Reason is.. most lam mee out there are cooked with way too much cornstarch covering over yellow noodles that inevitably clumps together, resulting a gooey mess of carbohydrates. My colleague brought me to PJ Uptown recently, and although I am not too enthusiastic to have lam mee, I relent […]

I won’t be telling the story of ‘xiao long bao’ (Shanghai Soup Dumpling).

Paradise Dynasty in Paradigm Mall became my favourite place for lunch when I was working in an adjacent building. […]

Tucked in a corner in Seksyen 17, Petaling Jaya, it houses the infamous chicken and roast pork rice that garners long queues every day, the brisk business of Kee Mei siew pao […]
