Song Hin Pork Porridge, Kuching

-
It is not that I love criticising other people's food but sometimes they just forced me to. Do NOT dine in Song Hin Pork Porridge at the Open Market Kuching which is located at the intersection of Jalan Market and Jalan Power. To be safe, just don't dine in any restaurants there. They have a serious hygiene issue. You can see big fat rats and cockcroaches running around freely there. It was so disgusting!
They are selling their porridges start from RM3.50. The taste is more like rice in a soup definitely is not the type of porridges which we cook for long hours. 
This is the century egg which spoiled my entire Kuching trip. I was hospitalized for 3 days for food poisoning. It was a very terrible experience. My last food poisoning was 10 years ago and I have been very careful since then but somehow I got cheated by the TV program hosted by Axian for introducing their viewers like me to dine here. Lesson learned is do not trust 100% of those TV program which introduces places with good food. Just trust them 50% and the rest of the 50%, judge yourself when you reach there. The government there must do something about the pest which is crawling around the market. I can't believe they play ignorant about it.
Location: Unknown location.

Little Nyonya Cuisine @Gurney Plaza

Once again being a free tour guide for a group of people from Yunnan, China to Penang for some nice local delicacies. However, they were complaining about our food is not spicy enough. So since they would like spicy food, the only place I can think of in Penang is The Little Nyonya Cuisine which located at the lower ground of Gurney Plaza.  Tomyam Seafood @RM18.00++ Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Spiciness Level: 4/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - The seafood contains fish, squid and prawns only which is not bad at all. I would consider their seafood is fresh.The best part is the tomyam soup which is very spicy enough to numb your whole tongue and jaw. Nyonya Asam Pedas Ikan Pari @RM18.00++ Outlook: 3/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 4/5 Spiciness Level: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Overall: 3/5 - The stingray is soft and delicious but the only problem was the moment the gravy touched my tongue, I already can taste the crazy spiciness in it which is far greater than the ...

Motorino @Sky Avenue, Resort World Genting

-
Image
Hailing from Brooklyn, Motorino opened its first Malaysian Branch in Genting Highlands, this being ninth branch out of 5 countries. The simple no frills entrance to the restaurant is a precursor to the interior. Black and white tiles, small circular tables with steel maroon chairs await the diners. The emphasis seems to be on delivering good food. The aroma of freshly baked pizzas emerging from two gigantic wood-fired ovens located strategically at the back of the restaurant wafts through the entire eatery. If you are a die-hard pizza lover, Motorino is the place you want to be at. Their pizza dough is freshly made every day by well-trained chefs. Only the freshest ingredients go into it. The entire dough is then place onto a giant flat ladle.  Customers are then treated to the side of the chef side of pizza being cooked before their eyes. The result is a tender melt in your mouth pizza filled with succulent juicy pieces of meat and dripping cheese on a rich tomato ba...

Sawadee Thai Cuisine @Bophut Fisherman Village, Koh Samui

-
Image
I really in love with Thai food so the first thing I would like to eat when I came to Koh Samui is to find a Thai restaurant so I came into this restaurant called Sawadee Thai Cuisine which is located at Bophut Fisherman Village. Actually almost all the restaurants here serves Thai food but not most of them serve only Thai food. Koh Samui is a tourist destination so even the restaurant menu has to be internationalized. Only Sawadee Thai Cuisine serves almost 100% original Thai food.  Paneng Pork @290 baht++ Outlook: 2/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 2/5 - Paneng curry is a type of Thai curry that is generally milder than other Thai curries. It traditionally includes dried chili peppers, galangal, lemongrass, coriander root, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, garlic, shrimp paste and salt, and sometimes also shallots and peanuts. So it is taste least spicy than other Thai curry. The taste of dish is made a little sloppy because I do not feel it is worth ...

Cruise Tour on Erhai Lake, Dali

-
Image
Erhai Lake is the largest highland lake next to Dianchi and one of the seven biggest fresh water lakes in China. It means, 'sea shaped like an ear', in Chinese. Implying that the lake is ear shaped and as large as a sea, hence it was so named. The Erhai Lake covers an area of 250 square kilometers (96 square miles) and is located about two kilometers (1.2 miles) east of Dali. It is like a crescent lying between Cangshan and Dali city as seen from Cangshan Mountain. In a sunny day, the crystal waters of Erhai Lake and the snow mantled Cangshan Mount radiate with each other. Thus the scene was commonly described as 'Silver Cangshan and Jade Erhai'. There are a lot of ways to tour around the Erhai Lake but I suggested you the best two ways. Cycling/Sightseeing Car/Electric Bike/Electric Car - No matter which type of transportation you are using, you need 2 days to complete the tour around the lake. The total distance is 128km. My suggestion is you leave your big...

Pan Mee is one of the Chinese favorite which is loved by the locals. I believe you would heard many places claimed to have the best pan mee. So does this place Jojo Little Kitchen which is known to be the best pan mee at Kuchai Lama area. Tau Fu Fah Milk @RM6.00++ - Amazingly it is delicious! But too expensive! Traditional Pan Mee @RM6.80++ Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 - Like any other ordinary pan mee that I am going to have in a normal hawker stall which cost me not more than RM4.00 Fried Pork Pan Mee @RM6.80++ Outlook: 4/5 Creativity: 4/5 Taste: 3/5 Price: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 - They have different types of noodles.

Steaped, a modern way to appreciate tea @Pavilion Mall KL

-
Image
When you happened to smell an unique aromatic tea fragrant when you are walking at Pavilion Mall KL, do look for the logo of a hummingbird where you will find Steaped. The store is clean, modern and revitalizing which is a perfect spot for customers looking for a perfect tea infusion to start their day. Steaped knows that coffee has always being the leader as an important beverage intake for most of our daily life. Tea is seldom in the picture. In order to make the breakthrough, they have created all kinds of recipes with amazing top quality ingredients just to persuade us that tea is a good choice too. Steaped's Sweet Apple Pie @RM12.00 (regular)/RM13.50 (Large) - This is their most popular drink under Rooibos Signature Drinks category. Personally, I would really recommend this drink for being a starter in appreciating tea. The ingredients in it are rooibos, apple juice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Rooibos itself is a costly ingredient so you would expect the price of this drink wo...

Mulu Pinnacles Climb

-
Image
After a night at Camp 5 , finally I am here to make my finale of my Mulu trip which is to climb the Mulu Pinnacle! The above picture already telling you all the warnings and time that you will take. As early as 8.00am in the morning, we started this adventure. I have brought myself 3 liters of water, 4 chocolate bars, dozens of biscuit packs and a lunch box which is included in this tour package. If you are not signed up with any tour agency, you need to pack your own lunch box. Total distance is 2.4km, it may sound easier than 9km jungle trekking walk but you are wrong if you do think like that.  Not a well made road like you can see in Mount Kinabalu (for those been there). All are rocks and roots. Actually I prefer this trail more than the ladder type of trail in Mount Kinabalu. The reason is I can adjust the height that I would like to put my step onto. For Mount Kinabalu, it is a fixed height. The terrain on this mountain is very spiky. It has a lot of spiky rocks ev...
