When it comes to dessert, tong sui always gets me excited. Especially if peanut paste and black sesame paste is available. I’ve been going to the dessert shop across Restoran Ruby (PMK) for years until a friend told me to try Restoran Ruby for comparison instead. It was apt timing…
Pudu
Pudu is a place filled with hidden food gems – one that I’m slowly discovering as I go along the area. Yung Kee Beef Noodles came highly recommended by some avid beef lover friends of mine, citing the broth as “the beefiest you can ever find” in Klang Valley. We…
In this age when nearly nothing is hidden or forbidden, a secret hideaway (or the idea of it) has an undeniable allure. Like Barlai, a new venue from The Big Group, nested in a heritage building at Jalan Sin Chew Kee in Pudu. Try and find it. There is barely…
I vaguely remember eating the yong tau fu in Pudu – my first time was probably 8 years ago, before I started this blog. And before I developed a passion for food. But I was never lucky with this outlet; rif and I went there three times, only to find…
Several of my readers recommended this hokkien mee stall in Jalan Pudu when I blogged about Ah Wah in Taman Paramount not too long ago, and I finally did so last week. It wasn’t difficult to find the place – the stall doesn’t have a name but it is located…

I’ve been wanting to try the food at Thim Kee, but after more than five failed attempts (it was either closed or they were sold out for the day), I listed this place as a lost cause. rif has been here a few times with his colleagues and said the…
I know of someone who once threatened to dump the person she was dating over a plate of Chinese mixed rice. Reason being, she felt she was ‘worth more’ than that humble meal. I cannot fathom how people can measure their self worth that way. So ridiculous. :roll: Chap fan…
Before discovering the tasty curry laksa at Restoran 168 in Pudu, rif and I tried Ah Koong Eating House, located not too far away. I was told this place gets pretty crowded during peak hours but since we were there during the weekend, I didn’t have to wait very long.…
I’ve heard good things about the claypot chicken rice at Heun Kee in Pudu but getting to that part of town from Bangsar can be a nightmare. Moreover, I’m not a big fan of claypot chicken rice so I didn’t see the urgency of checking this place out. Heun Kee…
