Nasi Campur Food Stalls - Kuala Lumpur Hawker Center Yumminess

More drool-worthy yumminess from my Kuala Lumpur trip.
This time, they're from a random food centre near the stadium we held our event in (Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil).

I was surprised to find out that most of the nasi campur (mixed rice) stalls are run by....Indonesians! Aw!

I was tempted to pile everything onto my plate...but finally wisely selected stuff to form quite a well balanced meal. Veggies and eggs on rice, drenched in tasty spicy coconut-milky gravy. Yum!


Another day means another adventure...

Delicious Indonesian style fried chicken, including the tasty crispy bits.


You can imagine how refreshing this side dish is...perfect for the hot weather.


Quite a selection of veggies to choose from...


Fritters, side dishes and slices of oranges.

My yummy plate!



Roast chicken with chicken rice...too bad I didn't get to try it. Next time...

And the most impressive thing I've tried from this food center...

...these fritters!
They're like nothing I've tried before!


Super crispy exterior, sweet and soft ripe banana flesh interior..they're heavenly!
The perfect way to end a satisfying meal.


That, and a tall glass of iced coffee.
Can't wait to eat my way through KL again.

More Yummy Food from Kuala Lumpur

As if I am not miserable enough missing all the yummy street food I had in my previous post. Here's more.

Kway teow or noodle soup.


Prawn mee.


Chicken rice with roast chicken.


Two young guys making my noodles...


My favorite from this food center.


Dry pan mee. Nothing beats freshly made noodles! I miss this so much!


Enjoying the noodles too much, I forgot to ask what kind of veggie/leafs are these?

Something I regret not trying...

Adore the idea. Maybe I should try making my own.

Kuala Lumpur Street Food

When I travel, I don't always try to dine in famous eateries. I normally just eat wherever and whatever, but I'd try to eat something local.

The following deliciousness are from a dai-pai-dong style eatery near Sunway Pyramid, Kuala Lumpur.





Char kway teow. One of my all time favorite. I order this every time!

Tayy...satayyy....





I am not too crazy about sate padang, but my workmate lovessss them much!


Fried carrot cake, come to mama!


Plump and juicy oysters, I love you.


Sambal grilled stingray. I so need you right now. Could anyone make this available in Hong Kong?


My favorite drink when I was in Malaysia, teh-o-ping (iced sweet tea).
This is how I love my tea. No lemon, no milk!

Malaysian street food, I miss you already.

Durian Food Sighting & Food Loot from KL 榴槤飄香 & 馬拉美食之旅

I saw a small food stand in Mid Valley mall KL, and it's called Durian Durian. It sells all kinds of durian goodies.
係馬拉既Mid Valley mall有間野叫榴槤榴槤, 唔使講, 佢地賣乜都係榴槤啦!







All sounded fantastic! I tried the durian cheese crumble cheese tart and durian cheese cake. The names are better than the taste. The cheese cake and tart were pretty dry and not durianey enough. I've also bought the durian cookies and sponge cake.
但食起黎就冇個名咁勁啦..


The cookies are fragrant and buttery. The sponge cakes were light and fluffy, but again, there was not enough durian in them. I should've known better. Durian is always better as is.
食起上黎唔係咁有榴槤味..

What else did I get from KL?
除左榴槤, 仲有..

Choki choki (I love choki choki when I was young! You squeeze out chocolate paste out of its plastic casing, it's like munching soft chocolate! Yum!), Nandos peri peri sauce (I am marinating some Nandos wannabe chicken to be grilled tonight), Caramel toffee spread, and tamarind paste.
唔知大家識唔識乜係CHOKI? 我細個成日食的. 勁鐘意! 係擠(git)出黎食既朱古力醬. Nandos 的烤雞醬 etc

You know I'm fond of spice mixes, and I surely bought some from KL ^_^
仲有好多方便調味醬!

Can't wait to try all of them.
好想快D試!

McDonald's Spicy Fried Chicken from KL 馬拉先有既麥當奴餐

I went all the way to Kuala Lumpur, and I ate....McDonald's???!!!
Yes! Judge me all you can, but I love their spicy fried chicken, which is not available in Hong Kong, and no, it is not the same as Hong Kong's spicy chicken wings.
千里迢迢去到馬拉食麥記!?!?!
冇辦法, 你幾時見香港麥記有炸雞食? = =; 唔係雞翼同雞鎚咁簡單!

I ate this meal two times.
Heheheheh
一次都唔夠, 仲要食左兩次..


I tried their banana toffee sundae. I'd say that the name is much better than the taste.
香蕉施肥味雪糕, 一般啦

I also had KFC's fried chicken with chicken rice there :p
除左麥記, 仲食埋KFC㖭...

I am a junk food junkie. I know.
We've also spotted another junk food junkie on the road!
真鐘意食垃圾食物..

The car owner and I should get along very well, we have a lot of things in common ^_^
我同個車主應該做到好朋友...

Malaysian Bakuteh at Restoran Kee Heong - The Dumbass who Brought Cup Noodles to A Food Paradise

Who's the dumbass who brought 8 days worth of cup noodles and soy joy supplies into a food paradise?
Ehm, me, myself and I.

I knew that Malaysia is heaven for food lovers, but learning that a colleague even brought a rice cooker for this work trip, I was worried that we were gonna have our exhibition in a venue that's in the middle of nowhere, with no nearby restaurants, no minimarkets, the only protein we could get might be the mosquitoes who happened to be unfortunate enough to fly by us, and getting our daily intake of fibre might involve gnawing some old tree trunks by the venue. Plus, we were worried that our ass might be super glued to our exhibition site (which normally runs from early morning to the next morning) and we wouldn't have time to even look at the mosquitoes and the trees.

As always, I couldn't be more wrong.

There are plenty of good food near the stadium where we held our exhibition, and after the event, our graceful local host, Mr. A brought us to fantastic places to indulge, and one of them is...

Bakuteh at Restoran Kee Heong - Klang

The first thing which caught my eyes were these cute tea sets and hot metal tea pots on gas burners.


...then the friendly regulars who didn't get pissed seeing me pointing my camera to them, they even made V signs for my benefit.


Wasn't it just too hot for hot tea? Yes. But we really needed the hot tea to neutralise what we were about to eat.


The metal pots contains hot water, it is for you to refill your tea pots. Handle with care.


We were given a basketful of tea leafs packets, we selected Pu-Erh, an all time favorite.


...and the condiments...green chilli padi. These are not for the faint of heart. They're super HOT!


I haven't tried a Dry Bakuteh before, and I heard this place makes an exceptionally delicious one. I saw this pot, and I had no doubt that I'd love it. Even when the meat pieces were long gone, we were still scraping the pot and clean the sauce.


We also ordered a large pot of Bakuteh (braised pork in spices), pictured at the beginning of this post, all the goodnesses were hidden under the humble pieces of lettuce. Super tender, juicy and flavorful pork meat, tofu puffs, and beancurd sheets. They were perfect with plates of fragrant onion rice.

By the time we almost finished, I was drenched down to my undies, gave up and ordered iced tea. Lame, eh?

The owner told us that if only we were there earlier, we could've enjoyed the imperial cut of meat, and the special soup, which is strictly for regulars. Wow. Maybe next time.

What happened to my cup noodles? They didn't go to waste, they were adopted and will be enjoyed by our colleagues from the Philippines.

A Quick Hello from KL

Look at those overflowing mountains of goodies! I just wanted to dive, with mouth wide open, into those divine hills. Munch, munch, munch...and that was just the beginning! Not considering the vast array of tasty treats on the streets, there are also soooo many food outlets which I've missed but couldn't find in Hong Kong. Call me silly, but I was ooohing and ahhhhing at the sight of Wendy's, Dunkin Donuts, JCo Donuts, Cinnabon, Auntie Anne's and Karl Junior!

Naturally, I couldn't resist but started to buy some (not a lot, please believe me) goodies from the supermarket...and fell in love with the vintage-inspired packaging of these chocolates:

Cute!


Adorable!


Kinda creepy? Hehe

But I was suchhhhh a good girl, turned out I still have a teeny tiny bit of will power in me. I didn't buy any of those chocolate boxes, no matter how muchhh I love 'em. Hmmm, maybe I'll buy them tomorrow HAHA!


...and you'd think that this is a fab breakfast...but I had it at 10 something at night HAHA! It's from Pancake House, at Sunway shopping mall, it's a fast food outlet from the Philippines. Talk about all day breakfast! The cheese bits inside the pancake made the pancake perfect, but I was not crazy about the dry egg and the dry bacon.

I am now regretting my crazy idea of bringing a small luggage in an effort to look cool. I must buy those yummy looking instant noodles, snacks, cakes, sodas, curry spice packs...arrgghhh!
