12 August 2011: This is my second visit to Le Porc Dor (老婆多) after buying a few "50% off 4 Course Set Meal + Herbal Tea @ Le Porc Dor 老婆多 Restaurant" discount coupons from Everyday Coupons. Le Porc Dor serves non-halal, traditional, home-cooked food with no MSG added.

A 4 Course Set Meal which includes:

• Main Dishes + Soup + Vege + Rice ( worth RM14.90 )
• Herbal Tea ( worth RM3.00 )

The main dishes and soup are shown in the menu. We use 2 coupons today and here are what we had...

• Cuttle Fish Steam Pork (吊片蒸猪肉) -> Fine and tender steamed pork. Considering no MSG is added, this dish is quite tasty. Worth a try.
  
• Sausage Fungus Steam Chicken (腊肠云耳蒸鸡) -> Not bad but I personally doesn't like the taste of ginger in this dish. Worth a try though.
  
• Lotus, Lobed Kudzuvine Soup (莲藕粉葛汤) -> One of my favourite soup and this did not disappoint me. Recommended.
  
• Herbal Chicken Soup (药材鸡汤) -> My favourite soup but I can't really taste herbs. Taste more like ordinary chicken soup.

Here are the vege and herbal tea. Both taste ok.

11 August 2011: This is my first time Amarin Heavenly Thai since it's closed for renovation few months ago. However, I still prefer the ambiance before the renovation. I personally think that it's a bit too dark now. The ceiling, walls, tables and even the staffs' uniform are black in colour. I was hoping that the food doesn't disappoint me.

Here are what we had...

• Pandan Leaves Chicken (RM18++) -> As good as before, juicy, tender and delicious. It's tasty eaten with or without the Thai chilli sauce. One of my favourite pandan leaves chicken. Highly recommended.
• Pineapple Fried Rice (RM16.90++) -> Pineapple fried rice with prawns, topped with chicken floss. The rice is very well fried and tasty. Prawns are fresh. Recommended.
• Seafood Tom Yam (RM13.90++) -> The soup is thick and tastes just right. Recommended.

In conclusion, we are satisfied with the food served in this meal and Amarin Heavenly Thai remains as my favourite Thai restaurant in Klang Valley.

27 July 2011: Home Made Fish Head Noodle in Mid Valley Megamall mainly serves wide variety of fish head noodles in a clean and comfortable environment. Besides fish head noodles, other dishes such as rice, porridge, etc. are also available here.

Here are what we had...


Fish Paste Mee Hoon (RM9.50++) -> I like the soup, very tasty. The fish paste is quite good as well. Worth a try.


Deep-Fried Chicken with Fermented Bean-curd (RM7.30++) -> Crispy skin with tender and juicy meat. Fermented bean-curd makes the chicken taste really great. Recommended.

I'm quite satisfied with the food served here. I will definitely go again to try other dishes in the menu. However, I think that they are understaffed and most of the staffs are not well-trained. Hence, the service is quite slow.

KFC O.R. Quarter Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce @ KL Sentral

27 July 2011: After trying KFC O.R. Chicken Chop, today I tried the newly introduced O.R. Quarter Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce.


I was looking forward to try what can the black pepper sauce do to the fried chicken with its prominent KFC signature spices. Here comes the O.R. Quarter Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce Combo Meal...

• Quarter Chicken with Black Pepper Sauce -> The chicken still tastes like typical KFC fried chicken (original). The black pepper sauce, which is salty-based, did not really make much difference because the chicken is too well-marinated with typical KFC spices, which is salty too. Other types of sauce such as Thai sauce or sweet and sour sauce might create surprises.
  
• Butterscotch Bun -> Slightly dry, not soft and tender enough.
• Corn Kennels -> Not bad (this can't go too far :P).

Mama Chops Papa Grill @ Axis Atrium, Ampang

26 July 2011: My mom and I decided to try out Mama Chops Papa Grill in Axis Atrium, which is just walking distance from my house. Here's what we had...


Chicken Chop + Soft Drink Combo (RM12.50) -> The chicken chop (ala carte) costs RM11.30. The chicken chop served is grilled deboned quarter chicken served with potato fries, mixed vegetables and creamy hot and spicy black pepper sauce. The portion of grilled chicken and fries is slightly smaller than average. I personally don't like the black pepper sauce because I can't really taste black pepper. In fact, the sauce tastes a bit sourish. Besides, the fries are either too soft or too hard. None of the fries is crispy. Not recommended.
