Devi's Corner, bangsar

Engraved on the chair. rich!
This outlet (pic above) is opposite Delicious.
The other outlet has turned into BN's Operation Office for the upcoming election! (pic below)

Sour Lassi RM1.20
It is yogurt.
You could opt for Mango lassi/sweet lassi..etc for more flavours.

I've been craving for this!
I'll only take tosai/roti canai/capati with lots of kuahs!
With generous supply of dhal and sambal.
Trisha would know :)
and Laura
and now Kish

He'd be a vegetarian today and tomorrow so he had to eat lots of meat gao-gao (secukup-cukupnya) the day before, which was yesterday lah.

That's cute:)

The chili chicken was no kidding spicy!
Even Kish cannot withstand.
Initially he thought it was honey chicken before the spicy-ness worked its way. lols
Roti telur RM1.50
Normal tosai RM1.20
Look at the kuahs!
Finished 'em all!

Note this. Devi's corner is an indian restaurant, not mamak.
I wasn't really aware of this.
Sometimes people would just grouped it as 'mamak'.
It has become a...urm...
im not very good with words you see.
For example the word fuck.
It has become the norm that people tend to forget the real meaning and use it as they like.
For convenience, we too, use the word mamak when referring to places which sell roti canai and its 'family' - nasi lemak,teh tarik, blablabla.
The word has already been infused into our culture.

But i have a feeling some people would be particular, thus feel offended.
.........

This is debatable.

Meanwhile,
I forgot to take photos of the proprietors wearing the BN button tags.
Wont they worry that this will affect their business in the long run?
You will never know. Some die-hard party members might not want to patronize your shop?
Well, you wont know what goes behind the door. I mean between the restaurant and the politician.

That's all for today!
Oh wait, this was where we went to yesterday when we couldnt find NewLaySin.

Peter Pork Noodle, Mayflower Brickfields

i was looking high and low for New Lay Sin Coffeeshop in Brickfields yesterday.
Kish was with me and he said the shop moved already.
I didn't believe him at first because i swear i only saw it not long ago! i could even remember the background of the signboard! it was green in colour!
In the end, i gave up. fine.
oh-kay. but move where?
On impulse, he said the hawkers could have relocated to this new restaurant, called the Mayflower.
We drove there and saw the sign saying Seafood restaurant, so i said it couldnt be it thus we decided on another place for breakfast.

However, i couldn't feel at peace and so i went to brickfields again this morning to look for it!

and HERE it is!!!
they have indeed shifted to Mayflower.


Peter pork noodle.
I wanted dry noodle but somehow i just ordered ONE BOWL,small, with egg, without specifying dry or soup intentionally.

Took these from my seat, as there weren't many customers so i was annoyingly aware of myself.

Delicious. but kinda regretted not ordering the dry one instead.

Batchmate, Julian acclaimed that the pork noodle in OUG is excellent.
He brought us (lil P and me) once and....urm...hee..i forgot how it taste like already.
It was nice lah..but i can't decide which is better.
Do not really fancy pork noodle.
They are in the same gang as koey teow thing.
Means you only eat them when you feel ill :p
I'm having sorethroat now, so does it explain why i looked high and low for it?
I can only identify BAD ones from this category.

Ok, shall not be verbose.
Im having the jitters as i should'nt, i really should not be going this!
but i really cant concentrate!
Ive whiled away the entire day today!!!!
grrRRR

am i GROOVY?

Pyramid oulet, opposite J Co Donuts.
Came here last night for dinner.








Sushigroove House Salad RM4.90
Give me the money and i can make this for you

Gyu Tamago Don RM14.90
Sliced beef with vegetable omelette on rice
Sushi Zanmai's better

Not to say this was bad. It think it was good but it's just that Merman claimed that Zanmai was better.
I'm not very sure if his view is biased. hee

Potato Portabella Pancake RM6.90
The science of pancake and potatoes. 
normal-lah.

Battleship Horenzo Roll RM9.90
Crispy inari wrapped roll, filled with baked salmon and spinach! Yummy!
I think so otherwise

Merman didn't allow me to order Lionking or other Spicy ones.
Very 'wei' meh having chili padi in sushi? :S

Wasabi Ice-cream RM6.90
"We could only come for this next time" he said

their 'sleek communal table' 
so that you can groove strangers sitting next to you
and they have a Hot Wall. Does it gives you a warm feeling?
Uhh...it doesnt, to me.
The staff explained that lots of customers find it unique.
yea-lah...unique itu unique lar... ok lo.
hee

What is this i asked, already suspecting what it would be actually.
True enough. some kind of loyalty card.
Spend 500 ringgit and get a RM50 voucher and a free dessert of your choice.
*wrinkled face*
"Did u tell them we're not coming again?" i grinned.


no idea why they gave us 2 receipts.

Summary: won't go again.
Should have asked them for a scoop of Wasabi ice cream and Black pepper ice cream each.
Nevertheless, i think i could guess how the latter would taste like.

Well, i prefer authentic sushi/japanese food. groovy ones doesnt sync with my tongue in this case.
Sorry.
Anyway, who wants this card? i would happily give it away~
:)

duriansation

CHILLED DURIAN CHEESECAKE!
it HIT ON THE SPOT!!!

:))
for a moment when i laid the box on my dining table, i was afraid it could taste a little sourish as it is a cheesecake after all. y'know? the cheesy taste?
but i went on cloud nine when i took my first bite!

i just ate it like 5 minutes ago?
and there are 6 more pieces in the fridge!

Restoran Muar, tengkat tongshin

see the char siew?
i can live without pork but not char siew!!
aiks? macam sounds familiar only? hee. kays, ive mentioned this in my friendster blog before. -.-'

anyway, this charsiew stall has one of the chun-nest charsiew in town! besides FSF.
u really need to order those with a little fats. the wholly-leaned type is really depressing.
you need the fats!!!

SO! we tabao-ed charsiew to this place below ;)

Restoran Muar! i was looking forward to try their otak-otak and cendol!


the pretty and kind proprietor introduced us this dish,
butter something prawn & squid RM16
Merman rejected the recommendation of petai. Boo sama dia!
:(

Japanese beancurd RM10.
dont know why he needs to order taufu all the time! :S
Albeit that, you can hardly go wrong with taufu.

Deep Fried Kailan RM8
Recommended by the lady
A very unusual dish

Crispy Fried Egg RM5

the lady was like, are you sure u still want this? u have ordered 4 dishes? !!??
you sure you can finish? unless you're a big eater she added and she broke into a smile

She looks very pleasant!
you can hardly get a good-looking lady to take down your orders.
ahhh...:)

oh! and no otak-otak for me. unfortunately, they didn't make otak-otak that day. sienness.

anyway, when our food came, we went opsssss.... :)
a bit embarassed.
the lady walked past and smiled at us.
Merman suggested we invite her to sit down since we have abundance of food for 2.

Bear in mind of our charsiew which were already safely hidden in our stomachs.
we were warned not to seen eating it especially by the muslims as their shop is halal.
See? she even presented it in a courteous way.
Sorry ma'am. and also thank you.
:D
Mini cendol!RM1
merman exclaimed that it has liquor in it
:S
"it's gula melaka lah!" *rolleyes*
:p

thought i could save by eating here, but....:(
good food nevertheless

darn the pricey charsiew!

Leong Ya (Lui) Restaurant, Sg. Besi

Went to this retaurant on Sunday for dinner.
There's 3 LeongYa restaurant in this area itself.
hah!
so how? which one should we go to?
i've been to 2 of them.
went with my parents to the restaurant in front row of the shophouses, facing the highway;opposite the KTM Serdang station. this one is the only air-conditioned outlet.
Then there's another one, non-airconditioned, behind the air-cond outlet. this row of the shophouse is 90 degree to the first restaurant, it would be on your left, a corner shop.
however, i haven't been to this one.

the third shop, would be at the deeper end of the road. also a corner shop, on the right side. it is visible lah. far more visible than the second shop.
it is written LEONG YA (LUI-means daughter, translated directly from cantonese)

oh, i forgot to mention, LEONGYA is famous for their paper-wrapped-chicken! and hakka yong tau fu.
this would be my second time in this non-airconditioned, daugther's shop.

first pic above: yong tau fu. followed by taufu on sizzling plate.
yew mak? im not familiar with vege names, sorry :S
paper wrapped chicken!!!
i had 2 pieces! :D
delectable sauce!
the first chicken that i took had lotsa skin. gross.

anyway, i prefer the paper wrapped chicken here than the one in Soo Kee, Jalan Imbi.

kays, toodles!

DVD la, though it wasnt very clear. i had a choice of choosing the language so i watched in cantonese albeit listening to a little specks of mandarin at the very beginning. loved the melodious China accent. ~~

HILARIOUS! and the girl? or should i regard her as HIM? anyway, he/she was darn cute!!!! her expression was fab!!!
