Food Hunt: Su Kitchen, Kepong Village Mall


Good Evening folks,

Welcome back to yet another edition of the Food Hunt where today, I will bring you guys to Kepong Village Mall to craft some food over there. It was indeed a lovely evening where the rain had just stopped. ME & Kimmy had decided to go for Madam Lim but today it did not open and unexpectedly we have visited Su Kitchen at Kepong Village Mall. Unfortunately I did not take down the entrance of the Su Kitchen but I can roughly tell you that once you reach Level 2 escalator from Level 1, then you will see the restaurant and it's located next to the Food Court and Subway. I will attached the Floor Directory with the RED box for you to locate it.

We reached Su Kitchen and the place was absolutely empty with only 2-3 tables being occupied. Once we sat down, we were served with the menu and I can tell you that the menu looks like Oldtown and the style is also same. The waiter also eagerly introduce their main dish for us and it was mainly the Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang. OK! Since that's their main dish, then I go for the Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang with a glass of Honey Lemon Ice. Both of us ordered the same dish. The service was pretty fast and it took about 8 minutes for the food to arrive. The portion of the 'Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang' was medium but the chicken was pretty small piece. It costs us about RM8.90 per plate and the taste was above average. The 'sambal' was not spicy though but the ingredients used were very fresh and nice. The best part is the drinks that we've ordered. The Honey Lemon Ice was absolutely wonderful and nice. It melt into my mouth and it was very tasty and I simply love it.

The bill came and it costs us about RM26.00 for 2 persons with the same amount of food we've ordered. It was like the OldTown price but if compared with the portion between Su Kitchen and OldTown, definately OldTown has a bigger portion compared to Su Kitchen. But still I prefer OldTown Nasi Lemak as it was still my favourite. You may want to come and try the Nasi Lemak over here and feel the difference but do not expect it will be perfect! If you ate a lot, definately the portion of Nasi Lemak is not enough for you too. MY RATING: 4/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5

_________________________________________________________

My Comments: Today is the first day of Hari Raya and of course, it our holiday time and I have decided to spend my Raya Holidays back in the Klang Valley because I do not want to stuck in traffic jam again. So, since nothing to do today, ME & Kimmy had decided to go for shopping mall and we have visited Mid Valley Megamall and we've also decided to watch Resident Evil: Afterlife. It was so crowded on the first day of Raya and hardly we can find parking too. About this movie, overall it was still satisfactory although I would not say this movie is perfect as there are some things that are not up to expectations. Milla Jovovich was still an outstanding women in this movie and still she's the best. But the storyline was a little too ridiculous and it was cut short and not fully shown and there are too many cut scenes to finish off this movie. In certain parts where they tried to find their way out and they did not show all and just jump to the conclusion without any difficulties passing through it. Also, the action was rather less compared to the previous versions of Resident Evil but still you will enjoy it because it was a fun ride too as the whole movie was very terrifying as well as zombies who ate human too. I would still recommend you to watch this movie if you are zombie movie lover or action movie lover but I bet you will be a little bit dissapointed as I believe you had set high expectations towards this movie. It was just nice to watch. MY RATING: 4/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5

Lifestyle: Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 With Bluetrack Technology


Hi All,

Welcome back to yet another edition of product introductory where I have bought a mouse at All IT Hypermarket recently and after a few days using it, I was very satisfy with the product and I've decided to introduce to you. Introducing the Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 with Bluetrack Technology which acts as a Wireless Mouse and not only that, where it can also used at hardened surface such a carpet or marbles (except glass). There are various colors to choose from including blue, green, black etc.

It uses a Nano Receiver and the size of the nano receiver was rather thin and small. You can't see it from far where it was just a little tiny receiver. It uses only 1 Alkaline AA battery and for more affordable alternative, you may purchase rechargable batteries that can lasts longer. It also uses a new technology called Microsoft Bluetrack Technology where it can work almost in any surface including carpet or marbles (except Glass). Overall, the design was rather sleeky and it was nice too. It's also comfort to grab within your hands and you should owned one while you are on the go anytime and anywhere. Speaking about battery life, it was absolutely good and it can lasts at least 6 months and above. It was cheaper compared to Logitech Mouse and why not go for a cheaper mouse with great features and of course better technology currently then Logitech. MY RATING: 5/5

Food Hunt: Kim Gary Restaurant, The Curve Shopping Mall


Hey folks,

After watching movie at e@Curve, it's time for dinner where ME & Kimmy had decided to go to Kim Gary Restaurant at The Curve to have our dinner. We reach there around 7.30pm and the place is already crowded. We need to take number and waited to be seated. Luckily we did not have to wait pretty long and finally we get a place after waiting for about 10 minutes.

Once we sat down, we looked at the menu and the service was pretty fast too despite so many people as they have adequate staff to serve its customers. Good news for that. After taking a look at the menu for about 10 minutes, finally ME & Kimmy had decided on what to order. I've ordered Shredded Chicken, Fried Egg & Mushroom Rice with Corn (RM9.50) together with Ice Lemon Tea (RM3.80) while Kimmy ordered Wrapped Fish In Egg with Chinese Mushroom & Corn Rice (RM10.90) together with Lime Juice with Aloe Vera (RM4.80).

Kimmy told alexleow-kimmy.com that her Wrapped Fish In Egg with Chinese Mushroom & Corn was great and nice to eat. The fish is very fresh and the rice meanwhile was good too. The taste was great and amazing. While mine is different from her. I felt that the Shredded Chicken, Fried Egg & Mushroom Rice with Corn was very salty and not nice. Even the rice also taste salty maybe because of the shredded Chicken which makes the rice salty too. Felt dissapointed with the dish I've ordered compared to Kimmy. Luckily the Ice Lemon Tea was good and nice to drink.

When the bill came, it came about RM33.30 and the price is reasonable too. The amount of food is average and I can say not too much or too less. You can try the dish that Kimmy ordered but not mine please! I had a torrid time finishing my meal and it's pretty bad to eat the bowl of rice that I've ordered. Enjoy your weekend! :) MY RATING: 3/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5

________________________________________________________

My Comments: Once again, we are back again to yet another movie session where today ME & Kimmy had planned for yet another movie outings. Today, we have visited The Curve and of course we watched movie at Cathay Cineplex at e@Curve today. We have chosen this movie Cats & Dogs: The Revenge Of Kitty Galore. This movie mainly talks about how cats & dogs battle and in the same time, they can be friends too. It was definately cater for kids as it was pretty funny and the movie was out of its logic as well where the Dog and Cats can be very powerful and they has its own technology to overcome each other. It looks a bit insane whereby in real life, cats & dogs would not do so but in this movie they seems can do it. Haha! Well, overall, the storyline was good and simple and no rocket science for this one. I would recommend you to watch this one and have a good laugh towards this movie but I would not give full marks for this one as there's still a big room of improvement too. Enjoy! MY RATING: 4/5 ; KIMMY RATING: 4/5

Cinema Movie: Old Cow Vs Tender Grass (老牛与嫩草)

Release Date: 2 September 2010
Language: Mandarin
Running Time: 1 hour 35 minutes
Genre: Comedy
Director: Fok Chi Kai
Cast: Crystal Lin, Henry Thia, Jack Lim, Siau Jiahui.


Synopsis:

"Old Cow Vs Tender Grass" tells the story of Moo (played by Henry Thia), a taxi-driver in his late 40s, and how his routine life changes when he gets acquainted with an attractive but eccentric lady, Moon (played by Crystal Lin). Meanwhile, Jack Lim plays a rugged taxi-driver who falls for a lady from China (played by Siau Jiahui). The movie attempts to explore the seemingly improbable romantic relationships in today's society, through a simple yet hilarious storyline


________________________________________________________

My Comments: It was a lovely Saturday night where it was so cold where Kimmy & I couldn't have imagined after it rained the whole night. This also does not dampens our spirit to go TGV Metro Prima in Kepong to watch movie where I have been waiting a long time to watch this Singaporean movie. Old Cow Vs Tender Grass is our movie choice this week as it talks about relationship between a greater age and a younger age. This movie also starring Henry Thia and Jack Lim whose name are super famous among Singaporeans and Malaysians we well. This movie overall does dissapoints me although I would really expect a good rating for this one. The movie was less funny and the storyline was normal and not interesting as well. It's like "no movie to act but just purposely find a movie to act" in cantonese. It was merely dissapointing where I would expect Henry Thia to be more funny and hilarious because he is the main actor of this movie but there was just a few laughing scenes in this movie only. Jack Lim however also same where I should not blame him because he is just an supporting actor only in this movie and he also does not impress in this movie where a few laughs only came out from him. Overall, I would not recommend you to watch this movie unless you are too free and you've got nothing to do, then you can watch it but be prepared because you will be dissapointed too. MY RATING: 2.5 /5 ; KIMMY RATING: 3/5

Food Hunt: Restoran Fish & Noodle House, Damansara Kim


Hi All,

Welcome back to another edition of Food Hunt and for those who love Fish Head Noodle, then today I have something for you. Introducing the Fish & Noodle House which is located at Damansara Kim and it's a place you should try.

Me & Alan arrived at the place at about 1.30pm and the place is still pretty much crowded. Once we sat down, we were served immedietely despite a lot of people there. The service is very good and excellent too. Then, we looked at the menu as there's not much to choose from and immedietely I've ordered Fish Paste Noodles with 100-Plus while Alan ordered Fish Head Noodles (Fried Fish) and Coke as drinks.

It took about 10 minutes for our dish to arrive and it considers pretty fast as well. About my Fish Paste Noodles with milk, it was super nice but the amount is very less. I love the soup which covered with milk as it was delicious. The amount was pretty less and for a person like me, it's not enough and you may opt for the second bowl (not worth it because it's quite expensive). My bowl costs me about RM7.50. The fish paste was average as there's about 4 pieces in 1 bowl. For Alan's Fish Head Noodles (Fried Fish with Milk), he told alexleow-kimmy.com that the noodles was just average. He said that the noodles was too normal and the soup was not as nice as he tried in other restaurants. It costs RM7.50 per bowl as well.

The total bill is RM20.00 including drinks and I think it's a bit expensive. Now here's the question whether do you accept the taste of the Fish Head noodle or not. For me it's nice but it depends on individual as well. But still although it's expensive, I felt that it's still worth it as long as the Fish Head Noodles are nice. I will still recommend you to give it a try and you rate it yourself! :) Enjoy! MY RATING: 5/5 ; ALAN RATING: 3.5/5

Hello,

Today it was a beautiful Saturday afternoon where it was a day that mooncake came into my mind and of course I have bought 2 large boxes and 1 mini boxes of mooncakes for my family and friends. Though, I have chosen The Baker's Cottage as my premium choice this year. Of course since radio station MYFM also have their advertistments promoting their latest new mooncake the Grand Ruby, I have decided to give it a try.

The taste was great and it was a bomb! I love it very much and get addicted already. It was so delicious as it was not sweet though. It is suitable for the whole family to eat and be prepared for the mooncake festival which is coming pretty soon. The Grand Ruby is made of Lotus Seed, Refined Vegetable Oil, Olive Oil, Maltitol, Trehalose, Maltose, Wheat Flour, Olive, Butter, Dry Lily Bulbs, Red Yeast Powder, Alkaline Water and Salt. It is very healthy indeed and do not hesitate to try it out ya! :) Visit http://www.thebakerscottage.com.my/ for the latest mooncake in store as well and I can tell you, most of the mooncakes that are sold by them are good too. Recommended to give it a try! :) MY RATING: 5/5

Food Hunt: Fukutei Japanese Restaurant, Klang



Hey folks,

It would be a rare occassion where I would preferably go for Food Hunt during weekdays on a working day. But today, it was a special day where I met up with my collegue nearby Shah Alam during lunch break and we have decided to go to try out the Japanese Food. Unfortunately, I did not take the food photos but still I would like to introduce to you about the food there.

It is located at the shoplots behind Jusco Bukit Raja. We arrived at the restaurant at about 1.15pm and the place was not so crowded and only 2-3 seats being occupied. We received a greatest and warmest welcome from the staff over there due to less people and we were instantly served with the menu. Of course we are served with Set Lunch menu and then a full menu as well. It also serves Japanese Buffet during weekends as well. I've ordered Chicken Teriyaki Bento while my collegue Wing Onn ordered Unagi Bento.

Before that, we were served with mashed potato and it was fantastic. It was a wonderful dessert before kicking start taking our main course and it's absolutely free. Then the bento arrived within 10 minutes after our order and it was fast too. The Chicken Teriyaki Bento consists of 2 pieces of Watermelon, 1 Miso Soup, 1 Tauhu Dessert, 1 mini salad, a bowl of rice and Chicken Teriyaki and the portion was like average big too. For me collegue meal also the same except the Unagi only. Overall, we are very pleased with the food over there and the food was very nice. It was fresh and nice to eat as well as delicious too. We ordered Green Tea (hot) as our drinks.

The price meanwhile was pretty expensive but of course with the cozy and nice environment we had, it was simply worth paying it too. It's ranging from RM20 - RM100 depends on what you eat. My Chicken Teriyaki Bento costs me about RM23.00 while Wing Onn's Unagi Bento costs about RM25.00. Of course, for set lunch during weekdays, we are offered a 20% discount on overall bill and overall the total charges would be RM45.00. For RM 45++ per adult and RM 28++ per child, one can enjoy Sushi Buffet in the nicely decorated restaurant only from 11.45 am to 2 pm on weekends. But the sushi's are expensive as we did not try on that. Perhaps next time, I should go and try it out too. If you are staying in Klang or wanted to try out this restaurant, I would totally recommend you to try it out as it was good and perfect. Enjoy! MY RATING: 5/5; WING ONN: 5/5
