Restoran Kari Kepala Ikan Tiga @SeaPark.



My mum likes curry fish head with lots of mixed vegetables.
 A must order to eat for her, in any restaurant.

Restoran Kari Kepala Ikan Tiga is located at the former Restoran Thong Kee,
a stone throway from the Paramount LRT Station.

With a huge red enticing bunting of some of their signature dishes-it sure
draws in the crowds.

Opened a week ago, as some of the garlands of flowers are still intact.

We ordered a standard size claypot of curry Grouper fish head with ladyfinger,
brinjal, long bean, Chinese round cabbage and tofu puffs-the curry is fragrant, 
creamy and not too spicy-this pot can easily feed five person.

And a plate of steamed thickly sliced pork belly with salted fish to complement 
both the curry and rice.

It is reasonably priced and portion are big.

Parking is OK.

Penang Road Famous TeoChew Chendul@Paradigm Mall.


I really missed their chendul.

Those sold alongside Pasembur /Indian rojak mobile stall  in the city,
just can't compare with them.

Now, it is available @Paradigm Mall at RM4.90/bowl.

It also comes with various toppings like durian, chempedak, ice cream..etc at
extra cost.

I ordered the original version with very finely shaved ice and if you want more brown
sugar-a bottle of it is placed on every table. 

Penang delicacy like Assam Laksa, Curry Laksa, Rojak, Popiah...etc is also available
@Rm7.90/bowl. 


The authenticity of the food is very close to what i had in Penang.

Prawn Mee@Kampar.



To me breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

It gives me the energy to "kick start" the day.

On outstation trip, the fun is waking up early to find food to fill my stomach
especially hawker's stalls or coffee shops near busy wet market.

Kampar town is full of good food all through out the day and night.

Breakfast @ Wing Lok Yuen Coffee Shop (famous for it's original and
legendary charcoal fired Clay pot Chicken rice in the night) of Prawn
Mee with braised pig's trotter, tofu, pig's intestine and pork ribs as a side dish was delicious.

The Prawn mee soup is not as robust unlike others-light prawn taste with not too
much of red chillies scummed oil-beansprouts, sliced fish cake, fresh shrimps, Chinese chives and
rice vermicelli.

The braised stuffs were well braised- tender ribs/pig's trotter and soft tofu.

Parking is OK.



Prawn Mee-Rm3.80/.

Kedai Makanan Rasa Lain@Bercham,Ipoh.


I can still remember the variety of dishes that we had for dinner @Kedai Makanan Rasa Lain
a year ago.

Another invitation by my niece Huey Ling and her hubby to join them for dinner there
could not be missed.

We reached at about six pm and a slight drizzle was good and welcome on a hot and humid night.

I was told that the boss only served the freshest fishes and crustaceans which he stocked
up daily.

All in we ordered six of their signature dishes plus a deep fried dry brinjal, enough to feed seven hungry adults.

The food was exceptionally fresh and delicious and our favorite was those outstanding big steamed springy fish balls. 

Parking is ample.
