A normal order of Big Mac as my dinner.

Looks like just any regular Big Mac.

Check this out is semi Mega + Big Mac. Instead of 2 pieces of meat, I get 3 pieces. I think the kitchen attendent was confused of Big Mac and Mega Mac.

Moreover I got a free Jasmine Green Tea during this promotion period.

The best part, an extraordinary big fly landed on top of filet-o-fish poster and this is priceless.

 

This is the trip to French Village and Japanese Tea Garden in Bukit Tinggi. Bukit Tinggi is now also known as Berjaya Hills Resort. The entrance to this hill resort is located at the middle of Kuala Lumpur-Kuantan highway.

Actually the air at Bukit Tinggi is not that cool compared to Genting Highlands. However, the surroundings make you feel just like in overseas and some of the views are exectly like the one we saw in RPG gaming world. Below are the views at French Village and Japanese Garden. 

Path and walkway as if you are in Venice.

This spring fountain looks like HP replenish fountain in the RPG gaming.

This is the place where we refilled our strength level.

The “SET MENU” in this restaurant is shown as below. Check out the pricing which was quite reasonable. By the way, we didn’t really like the service from this cafe. After we had gone through the list on the menu, most of us decided on “set 5″ which included Chicken in Pita Bread, Dessert and Frostee. However, the waiter told us that there was no set 5, therefore, we asked him if this was only available in certain period and to our surprise he told us that they had “no. 5″ and not “set 5″. OMG, was there any difference? If yes why did they name their menu as “SET MENU”? This was not the end of story yet. We sat there waited for more than 15 minutes but still were not being served with any drinks which were inclusive in our set lunch. We then asked for our drinks and they gave us a surprise look as if we have made an unsual request and served us unwillingly. There was this waitress who served us food also had some attitude problem. She served our food with a very bad dark face, just like she just had a quarrel with her boyfriend. Very unprofessional indeed.

This was the chicken pita bread that we have ordered. The pita bread was very crunchy and the meat was very juicy too. It was indeed a very healthy meal as they used chicken breast meat as the filling. The food and service were highly in contrast.

A usual and normal butter cake which was our dessert.

In the game, there are supposed to be crocodiles down under the castle bridge, unfortunately there were only swans and little kids.

The trip on an open air bus to Japanese garden. Anyway, our fresh air was contaminated by the black and smokey air released by the previous bus!

The tragic happened at Penang Road near to famous Chendol stall. The fire strike so sudden and cause several injuries to the by-passers. There are few ambulances passed by after I left. The root cause of this fire still under investigation.

Police is directing traffic off from this area. For those who heading home this way within these few hours, please divert your vehicle off from this area to avoid jam.

Introduction of today is the special Malay style chicken rice located at Batu Maung beside the Pos Office.

By right most of the people working in Bayan Lepas will know the post office, just in case you are not sure where is the actual location, please refer to the Wikimapia GPS below:

http://www.wikimapia.org/#lat=5.2853234&lon=100.2860141&z=17&l=0&m=a&v=2  

The entrance to the stall from Batu Maung Pos office is a small hut and usually packed with people during lunch time. My advice is you either go there earlier or later. The bad timing to go is from 12noon - 1:30pm. Also, this place will not have chicken supply on Fridays due to Muslim prayers. If you want to enjoy the full set of lunch, please do not visit this place on Fridays.

Again, this place is for the people looking for good food but not too worry about the environment as there are kittens walking pass you and few small flies circling around looking for the “best” landing spot. Check out the boss who was busy preparing and ordering.

The price of the chicken rice is not that expensive at all. I am not sure if this price will still be the same after the petrol price hike?

The chicken rice set came with rice, chicken, chili and soup. The chicken was dipped with home-made soy sauce. The soup tasted like any Mamak stalls and the best was the spicy and sour chili paste to be eaten with the chicken rice. That was great combination. The only imperfection was the chicken meat portion was too little. For guys who are not not on diet, you should order extra meat.

For those not looking for plain chicken rice, there are other options - Fried rice with chicken. They have 2 types, either special or normal set. The normal set is fried rice with fried chicken, a piece of fried egg with their special made chili sauce on top and also a bowl of soup. The special set is the same but with “pasembur” as an additional side dish. The taste is very special too.

The name for this location is called Wisma Stallion. Anyway the exact location of this place will not be reviewed yet as I am getting the confirmation from the owner of this place. If anyone is able to find this place after reading my blog there will be special offer provided.

The restaurant is called Stallions Garden, the lunch time is from 11:30am - 2:30pm, while the dinner time is from 6pm - 10pm. The restaurant is closed on Sundays.

This is the inner docoration of the restaurant. This restaurant offers banquets for weddings, birthday celebrations, company events and buffet. Moreover, the parking at this place is FREE and the price of the food is reasonable too.

We tried out a number of dishes and I found some of the dishes were very special. The starter is called “Stallion Garden Double Boiled Emperor Soup” (宝马一品窝). The ingredients of this soup included dark chicken, fish bladder, sea cucumber, abalone and ginseng. It was really an Emperor style of soup.

Next, the “Mango Prawn Wrapped with Japanese Fried Rice Noodle” (日式米粉芒果虾). They used normal tiger prawns to prepare it. However, the fried rice noodle used to wrap the prawn was imported from Japan. The rice noodle was very crunchy. The inner part was stuffed with tiger prawns in mango paste. It is an excellent combination. Something that we can hardly get daily.
 

“Chef Special Broccoli with Sea Cucumber” (海参扒兰花). This is the usual dish for most of the Chinese dining that we used to have. However, the gravy is the main ingredient which made this dish outstanding. A sea cucumber is tasteless by itself and it needs the gravy to bring out its taste. So far, the taste is acceptable.

This next dish is very unique, it’s called “Fresh Garupa in Two Preparations”(麒麟双味班). So far the fish I’ve tried was as good as the name sounded because the fish was really fresh. There were two types of preparation, the left was the deep-fried fish with sweet and sour sauce and on the other was steamed fish with spicy ginger sauce. What made the dish so special was the carrot slice which was stuffed in each slice of the fish fillet. This actually made the meat crunchy.  

“Assorted Seafood with Ee Mee”(海鲜闷伊面). The ee mee was cooked together with all types of seafood including fish, prawn and crab meat. All the seafood highlight were in this noodle. 

Last but not least, it was also my main focus. Something which takes time to prepare in a very unique way, the ”Double Boiled Hasma in Coconut” (椰盅炖雪蛤). The dried hasma which had been rehydrated was double-boiled in a whole coconut with rock sugar to create a glutinous texture and opaque colour. The original taste of hasma is actually unflavoured. However after double boiled in a coconut, the coconut’s aroma had actually soaked into the hasma soup and made the soup even sweeter.

Overall, the food here is prepared in a very unique way. Not only the food looks good but they taste good as well. For the next surprise to come, please stay tuned for my next update.

When I was young, I believed what my friend told me about the green color of Chandol was made of algae from the drain. Since then I haven’t been taking Chandol for a long time. I hope that friend of my will feel guilty when he read this post. :) 

The Penang famous Teow Chew Chendol that I am referring to is the one located at Lebuh Keng Kwee off Penang Street. The stall is located at the back lane.

Check out the people that dropped by this little stall, it was a never-ending flow. I wonder how much the stall owner is paying for his income tax every year?

This stall is sponsored by Penangnet.com. I am not sure if he is willing to place StevenGoh.com poster there? The price of each bowl is very reasonable too.

The famous Chendol of all time. The green color slices are made from Pandan leaves (fragrant screwpine) and flour. The white color milk is coconut milk. There are some other ingredients included in a bowl of chendol like red beans and attap chee (Palm Fruit). But the key ingredient which makes this so tasty is the brownish gula melaka (Palm Sugar). A friend of mine who is a frequent visitor will visit it twice a day and each time 4 bowls in a row.

They don’t only sell Chandol at this stall, if you are not a fan of chandol and prefer something different, Ice Kacang is another option. Check out this colorful and delicious ice kacang. 

Good food comes with responsibility. You need to stand and eat instead of a expecting a proper place to sit down. You are not allowed to bring the Chandol to the nearby coffee shop. There is a miniature chair beside if you don’t mind dirty.
