Castaway Restaurant, Sunrise Beach

-
Due to low season, many restaurants and chalets are closed. So a very limited choice of restaurant to choose from. I am more fancy Castaway Restaurant because of their ambiance and they are serving delicious food! I had my breakfast and dinner here. As for now, I will just introduce their interesting Thailand breakfast. Oh ya, by the way...their food here are not cheap. Just to remind you so you won't criticize me for introducing such an expensive restaurant to you.
You can choose from an eastern breakfast to a western breakfast. As for me, I prefer a Thai breakfast since I am in Thailand! However, their Thai breakfast is in Thai language which I hardly know what does it means. We had a nice waitress to explain that it is rice. The difference is either I want a "big" rice or a "small" rice with a choice of chicken, beef or pork. So I had a "big" rice with chicken which is in the picture above and a "small" rice with pork which is in the picture below. Now I know what does she means by "big" or "small" rice. It is porridge!
If you want to add an egg in this porridge, there is an additional charges. The "big" rice is rather plain like our normal Chinese porridge while the "small" rice is more oily. I like the "small" rice more but both are equally delicious!

Little Italy, Kota Kinabalu

The benefit of travelling alone is meeting up new friends same like last year at Kota Kinabalu, I have met a group of Guilin girls and this time I met her and her friend from Szechuan. She prefer to present herself this way. LOL. Instead of taken them to the local specialties, I prefer to take them to an Italian Restaurant which is called Little Italy. Honestly, our western restaurants are way better than any western restaurant in China. The reason is because those restaurants in China is serving based on the local taste who is not easily accepting something different especially on food. Unlike in Malaysia, we are used to anything! So that's why we able to taste something near to the original taste. Look at the crowd here! Hardly see any empty tables. FYI, this was Monday. I definitely never let my new friends down. Zuppa Di Mare @RM23.90++ Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 4/5 - The best that I have tasted so far is this seafood soup! The ...

Warakuya Japanese Garden, Mount Austin

-
Image
I used to whine that Japanese cuisine in Johor Bahru is horrifying and disappointing until I meet Warakuya Japanese Garden at Mount Austin. From the exterior itself, this restaurant looks so grand and luxury. The first thing comes to my mind is the price will be hefty. However, when I saw the queue in front of the restaurant, I already doubt their price is going to be really expensive. I know people just loves good food but at the minimum price. Who doesn't anyway? One of the best part of the restaurant is they are providing 42" LCD TV, free flow of drinks and seating area for the queue. You will never know time flies when you are having those things at the waiting area. Something that Sushi Zanmai needs to consider. Mango Sushi @RM11.90++ Outlook: 5/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 - The moment I put the whole piece into my mouth, the sweetness of the mango already started to pamper my tongue. Once the biting started, the sweet taste is ge...

Chong Siew Lam Restaurant, Serdang

Image
Never know about this place until I watched Ah Xian from the TV Programme which is known as "Taste with Jason". This restaurant is known as Chong Siew Lam Restaurant. No signboard to show this place but this is the only the crowded place in the whole street. They only serve for lunch so do expect great crowd roaming to this place between 12.00pm to 2.00pm.  Steamed Tilapia Fish Head @RM20.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 - Tilapia is a freshwater fish and the best is to steam it. Without a doubt, they did it very well. The meat is so fresh but what is the best part is the gravy. Not sure how they made it but it brings a little wine taste in it with spicy kick. Absolutely uniquely delicious! Steam Salted Chicken @RM22.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - By steaming the chicken like that, the gravy has already penetrated the entire chicken meat. If you just eat the chicken itself, it i...

Champ's Bowling Centre, Sandakan

-
Image
Not really much entertainment in Sandakan even though they are just beside the sea. No nice beach for water activities and the nearest island like Pulau Selingan and Turtle Island are about 90 minutes away. As for the town itself, basically is this bowling centre called Champ's which has a very nice and good condition bowling alley, bowling shoes and bowling bowls if to compare with bowling centres like in KL.  Not very big at all for their bowling centre which only has 12 lanes. Their shoes look so new! Here is a demonstration on how to bowl. Looks pro...I wonder how is the end result. So what do guys think? Is it a strike? They have a lounge here as well. And a cafe too! The price of the bowling is cost at RM4.80 per game per pax. We went at their most peak hours so their price basically has not much different than our KL City price. As for the bowling shoes is chargeable at RM2.00 per pax. FYI, the prices not inclusive government ta...

Marini's on 57 @KLCC

-
Image
In Singapore, you will see high class restaurants open their restaurant with Marina Bay Sands view. In KL, it will be the Petronas Twin Tower instead. However, to allow you to dine with the tower so up close and personal to you, it got to be Marini's on 57. Outstanding view which will just leave a memory of a lifetime to you.  You are very encouraged to make advanced reservation before visiting unless you are coming here for a common daily dining. This restaurant is located at Tower 3 and the entrance is near where the Chanel shop is. You will see a man with black suit at the entrance to escort you to their lift. Their lift is only going to take you to 57th floor which is where this restaurant is located. If you plan to dine by the window, they do set a minimum spending of RM300++/pax. Do not worry about it because you will easily spent more than that even with just main course and drinks only. This level is divided to two parts which are the restaurant and the bar. So ...

Restoran Makanan Laut Lau Heong, Bandar Baru Sentul

This is my first time dining at Sentul and glad to know this great Chinese restaurant which is known as Restoran Makanan Laut Lau Heong. This is the crowd at 6.00pm on Sunday. Crazy right? Let you see from another angle. They just own one shop lot but seems like owning an extra 4 parking space but still they are people standing and waiting for their seat including me! Curry Fish Head @RM25.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - This is their signature. You can choose a normal fish meat or a fish head like this. The curry is not really spicy at all. It contains more coconut milk taste than the curry itself. The fragrance of the curry and the coconut milk work perfectly. I can smell it before it is served. The fish heads are soft, tender, fresh and delicious. Highly recommend to everyone to try. Ginger Squid and Prawn @RM18.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 4/5 - Hardly taste the ginger but what makes me...

Image
I told my girl and my sister that today onward I will try to blog more on hawker foods. The reason is they said the food that I blog so far is nice to see but too expensive to eat. So to suit my supporters need, here I start with a simple char siew rice. The restaurant name is called Ka Ka Loi (cantonese) which means "come everybody". The restaurant is located beside Jalan Peel. It is quite easy to be located because a lot of cars parking by the road side. Rice made from pork oil to cook to increase the fragrance. Char Siew - RM13.00 Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 - This is their must order dish. The picture above is suitable for 3 person to dine. As you can see from the picture, there is 50% of the char siew are fatty meat. If you like the fatty meat, you can always request for more fatty meat. For me, I rather choose without any fat due to health concern. The reason for this char siew to be so nice is not just because they ar...

Restoran Rawang Famous Steam Fish, Ipoh

We just had our tiring caving adventure at Gua Tempurung and we were exhausted and extremely hungry especially when we had skipped our lunch in the cave. Thanks to Emily, she introduced me this restaurant, Restoran Rawang Famous Steam Fish. I know this famous restaurant with their famous one person one fish concept which I have been always wanted to try someday in KL but didn't expect them to be in Ipoh already. So I might as well completing my desire in Ipoh instead. We had 18 person for the dinner and we all sit in one large table. It was a little bit cramp but we managed to sit through out our dinner since we were so hungry already. We already care less about our personal space. I would recommend the maximum of 15 adults size for one large table. Steamed Tilapia - This is the famous one person one fish tilapia. We had a larger fish instead because we were sharing among 17 pax. For single person portion will be much smaller than this. The meat was succulent and soft. It ta...
