Second day, we continue food hunting and walk walk around. Initially we wanted to have chicken rice ball at Chung Hwa Coffee Shop, but it was too packed, the crowd was taking umbrella queueing outside the coffee shop. I gave up and i brought them to have nyonya laksa at Donald Lily. Ching ordered chicken pongteh rice, while me and Angel ordered nyonya laksa. The nyonya laksa was my all time fav!! hahaha.. Angel loves the laksa too, commented that the laksa was very spicy and tasty. The ayam pongteh rice also quite tasty with the black bean sauce.
Me and Angel at Donald Lily.
After that, i suggested to have a walk at Jonker Street as we did not really have a good time at Jonker Street last night. It was a very hot sunny afternoon. Angel able to buy a very nice and simple dress from Jonker Street at RM55, claimed imported dress. I was able to buy cheap short at only RM25. After the walk, i brought them to Nadeje to rest (after under the hot sun) and drink.
We ordered two pieces of mille crepes, one original and one rum raisin. The above one is original flavour. Both Ching and Angel fall in love with the first bite! You see, i bet you love this, as i love mille crepe so much too! Ching tried to count the layers. I counted again from the close up photo that i took. I counted about 21-22 layers. How about you, Ching?
This is rum raisin flavour. The taste is really good!! Equally good with the original one. In fact, i prefer rum raisin than original. GOOD, GOOD and GOOD!!! I would definitely have this again.
We really have a good rest in Nadeje as we sit there doing nothing, just having our tea, mille crepes, chit chatting for about two hours before we went to Dataran Pahlawan for walk walk. After the walk, we went to have Bunga Raya Porridge. The taste of the porridge and “mien fen gau” are always good to me. Angel claimed that she can cook better than this. Hahaha…
We went to Mahkota Parade to walk walk after our dinner. After all, i still think that Dataran Pahlawan is better than Mahkota Parade. Maybe it is new, i guessed.
No idea where to go after that, Ching and me thought of Coconut House. But too bad, most of the signature dish and drinks are out of order due to lack of “raw material”. I was quite dissappointed, really. After all, i ordered oreo milkshake.
My oreo milkshake, so cooling… Felt so cool after the drink. hahaha…
Angel ordered fried asparagus with parmesan cheese. Taste not bad, but a bit salty salty due to the parmesan cheese, i guess.
After about an hour in Coconut House and both of them still have room to eat, i suggested to bring them to Pak Putra’s chicken tandoori. Called PL and she able to join us. We ordered one chicken tandoori and one cheese naan, thinking to order more when PL arrive. After the chicken tandoori arrived, i tried to order another one, but the waiter said already finish. I was quite surprised, and at the same time very sad because i know one chicken tandoori just not enough for four of us, because it was too tasty!!! PL ordered another cheese naan and roti canai. Angel was saying that the dhall sauce (for the cheese naan) was super good. The cheese naan also very soft and tasty. The chicken tandoori also have good comments from them. haha. I was quite happy after able to introduce them such a nice food for them.
After the Pak Putra, PL saying that she wanted to go second round supper, which was satay celup. Initially we went to Capital Satay Celup, but there were people queueing up (again…). We did not want to wait, so we gave up and went to Ong Kim Wee one. I really full and could not eat anymore. But the satay celup smell was so strong and tempting until i could not resist. I have been so long have not eat satay celup.
After the satay celup, PL decided to stay overnight at my house, so we can have more chit-chatting session, as Ching and Angel were going back the next day.
We went back home after the satay celup. Chit chatting (besides Angel because she was too tired) until about 3am.
I really amused with the collection of wide range of liquor inside the wall cabinet. Mind you, the liquor is for sell too!! If i’m not wrong, the chef sell liquor in the early years before he became a chef.
Variety of seafood for you to choose, clams, oyster, soft shell crabs, crabs, prawns, sea cucumbers, froggys, bamboo clams, you name it, they have it all!!!
Oyster noodle, come with dark and thick gravy sauce. It tastier with the black vinegar. The oyster was so fresh. Thumbs up!!! We noticed every table ordered this dish, so we did!!
Soft shell crabs, it looks so normal, but it was very crunchy and tasty at its own. At first, i did not order this, i called PL to ask what are their specialty. So i added this dish to our order.
Sweet sour chicken chop. Recommended by Mr. Tan (the owner). It looks so normal until i doubt is it really nice. Surprisingly, the taste was not bad. The chicken chop was still crispy even though it was placed with the sweet sour sauce.
Lastly, we ordered kangkung sambal. Again, it looks normal, just like other restaurants’ kangkung sambal dish too. But the taste was quite appetizing and nice. I always love vege, remember? (^.^)
The famous yam dessert, their specialty, served with gingko and smashed pumpkin. At first, i quite reluctant to try because i do not really like yam and gingko. But as said, this is their signature dessert, no matter how i got to give it a try.
This is how the yam dessert looks like after the yam, pumpkin and gingko mixed togather. To my surprised, it was not too sweet at all. The yam taste was not too strong (as i do not like strong taste of yam), mixed with the pumpkin and gingko, it really taste good!
I was totally amazed with the entrance to the tea house. A very long small lane, decorated nicely between the lane, so mysterious. This was my first time came here and i totally have no idea what was inside. I thought it is a western type cafe, like many cafes do. But it was not. It is a chinese tea house, which serves variety type of chinese tea. The environment is quite comfy and peace, just too many mosquitoes (maybe due to raining). I would definitely visit again next round!
The menu nicely written on the big board hanging on the wall.
From left,clockwise: Sweet Pai Gu Mee Hoon (Sweet pork ribs mee hoon), Qing Zhen Yu Wei (Steamed fish tail), Tong Po Rou and San Wei Tofu (three taste tofu).
The most complete group photo. Everyone was trying to fit into the picture. I like this photo very much although the photo turned out to be blur. After the dinner, we had our karaoke session at Red Square….
The green and big words of Pak Putra which you can’t go wrong. Located at the main road of Kota Laksamana, you can find so easily. This is an outdoor authentic Pakistani restaurant is owned by a Pakistani owner.
Both of us ordered teh tarik ice and mind you, never ever order this again when you visit Pak Putra, because this was the worst teh tarik i tasted so far!!! The taste was so mild, just like a plain water to me. (>.<”)
Initially both of us ordered cheese naan (after been recommended by LWN that their cheese naan is the best) but it took quite long time to serve us. I was very hungry at the moment and i worried that i’m not able to finish one whole cheese naan alone, so i changed my order to nasi lemak. The nasi lemak comes with quite big portion of pandan fragrant rice, but very small portion of the sambal, hard boiled egg and fried anchovies. However, i quite like the rice because it was really nicely smell with the pandan and the rice was quite soft and freshly served.
Our drinks. Hubby ordered banana milkshake. In fact, i really got a bit surprised when he ordered this. But the taste really not bad. The fragrance of the banana is nice. I ordered ice cappuccino. Honestly, the drinks here are really not bad and the price is reasonable.
This is the nyonya cendol. Not too sweet as there was only a bit gula melaka on it. The shaved ice also a bit only (which i expected more shaved ice). However, the taste is average normal. Errr…what can i say? A typical cendol in melaka. (O^O)
