Enak Rasa Ikan Bakar No:4&5@Terapong.


There are just too many Medan Ikan places in Melaka, streching from Ujong Pasir 
to Umbai.

We were spoiled for choices.

As it is a Puasa month, many Muslims break their fast here with a healthy meal
of grilled fish and other assorted seafood, otak2, nasi lemak....etc

As most of the popular Medan Ikan Bakar were crowded with diners, we drove
further inwards and opted for Perkampongan Ikan Bakar Terapong@Umbai Baru.

It is a much quieter and laid back, and is a 2 storey concrete building built along the shoreline,
with a big parking area.

A plump lady ushered us to her family run grilled seafood stalls at No 4&5.

There is quite a good selection of fresh seafood and fragrant yellow coconuts are available at their
drinks stall.




We had grilled fillet jenahak, sea prawns, lala, squid, otak2, nasi lemak and a mixed vegetables.

Overall the food was not too bad and reasonably priced 

Parking is ample.  


While waiting for the main dishes, we had fragrant nasi lemak bungkus with a dollop of spicy sambal chillies @Rm0.70/ and grilled otak2 @Rm0.70.





 Total Bill:Rm140/
Location:Perkampongan Ikan Bakar Terapong,
Umbai Baru, Kampong Umbai, Melaka.

Assorted shells dishes @ Backlane@Jalan Bunga Raya@Melaka.


Been wanting to eat here for a long, long time.

With the company of family members who loves to eat and game for anything nice and lots of free time to savor all the delicious food in our two day's trip to Melaka.

We reached there earlier to beat the maddening crowds.

Parked our cars in front of Madam King, along Jalan Bunga Raya and walked to the back lane for
this assorted sea shells dishes, tofu, ladyfinger, century eggs, rojak, grilled tofu/beancurd sheets and kangkung/cuttlefish...etc dinner.

Got ourselves seated on small wooden stools and rusty flat metal low slung tables.

Brought back memories of my younger days.

Be careful of motorcycles that whizzed along the lanes every now and then while you are eating !

The sea shell dishes was very fresh and sweet tasting and the dip sauce of sambal chillies belacan,shrimps paste, crushed peanut and squeezed lime was excellent.

 Total Bill: Rm45/

This stall is open around 6 pm until 10:30 pm and closed on Tuesday.

Yi Poh Noodle@PJ Old Town.


I was suppose to have homemade fish paste ball and noodle for lunch at my favorite 
home run stall next to 99 Speed Mart but ended up at Yi Poh Noodle.

A new eatery from Seremban famous for their Loh Shi Fun noodle and some side orders like wanton, pork balls, chicken balls.....etc.

I ticked my order on a piece of printed order chit and was served about ten minutes later.

The Loh Shi Fun is long and smooth (tasted more like Lai Fun) tossed in a light/dark soy sauce, sesame oil and topped with minced pork, chopped spring onion and Char siew (BBQ pork) @Rm5/ and a side order of chicken balls and wantan.

Overall the noodle is good but the chicken balls need some tweaking and be careful of their red chillies dip it is extremely hot !!!

Parking is bearable.






Location: Along Jalan Pasar 1/21 and at the junction of Jalan1/10
Petaling Old Town.

Ramen@Restoran Hong Seng@Section 17.


Even though I don't eat ramen too often (those Japanese ones are too expensive !)

good and reasonable priced ones found in coffee shops are hard to resist.

Located in Restoran Hong Seng, a coffee shop near the "Sentosa" open air market and opposite off CIMB Bank in Section 17.

The stall is run by a China lady with her local husband.
 
Had this dry soy sauce/sesame oil ramen with braised chicken cubes, chopped spring onion and earthy sliced mushroom served with a bowl of mild peppery soup filled with minced pork/chives woh tip, pig's stomach, choy sam and tofu puff.

Price at Rm6/ it was worth every cents.

Parking is bearable.



Choice of soup can be entertain-from low to super peppery.


Location: Along Jalan 17/29, Section 17,
Petaling Jaya.

Fresh Fried Seafood Restauarnt.

Every month we will passed by this corner restaurant on our way home, from Sri Petaling.

A bit curious about them because of their namesake, "Fresh Fried Seafood Restaurant".

Anyway, for our dinner tonight we had the chance to savor some of their home-like dishes that goes well with rice.

And it turned out to be good and value for our money.

The stairs from both entrance leading to the restaurant is a bit of a hindrance to aged people and parking is bearable.

But will definitely go back to try other dishes.


Clay pot Brinjal with minced pork, chillies and salted fish to infused the aroma and taste to a higher level-RM15/

Steamed Egg-very smooth-Rm8/

Steamed Grass Carp belly with blended ginger-extremely fresh and fleshy-Rm28/
