Yowazzup? Food: Food Lover's Journey to Food Haven

If you love western food and you’re looking for bargain, Western Fast Food & Spaghetti is the place to be.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Spaghetti and Chicken Chop with Black Pepper Sauce/p>

Spaghetti and Chicken Chop with Black Pepper Sauce is quite good. The spaghetti is slightly thinner, just like those you get in Kim Gary while the chicken chop is quite tender and the sauce is delicious. All this for only RM 9.90, it’s quite worth it.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Spaghetti and Chicken Chop with Mushroom Sauce

Spaghetti and Chicken Chop with Mushroom Sauce is equally delightful. Be warned though, the meal can be a little heavy for lunch and you may fall doze off on your office desk.

Uncle Lim’s Fried Kuey Teow is another addition to the variety of food available in May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Fried Kuey Teow

Uncle Lim’s Fried Kuey Teow is quite delicious. The ingredients are generous while the kuey teow are fried to perfection. In some places, you’ll see the kuey teow ends up either burnt or uncooked, but the char kuey teow here doesn’t only look good but taste good as well. Definitely top my list for Fried Kuey Teow in Kuala Lumpur, if not the whole Malaysia.

Besides the popular pork noodles, May Flower Food Court also has a variety array of food, that includes chee cheong fun. Unlike most chee cheong fun, this stall serves different styles of chee cheong fun, which include Ipoh style and the famous Penang style.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Ipoh Chee Cheong Fun

Ipoh Style Chee Cheong Fun is quite refreshing and different from the regular Penang chee cheong fun. Instead of having the sweet sauce, Ipoh style uses chili and dried prawns. The verdict? Pretty refreshing and delicious albeit the spicy taste.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Penang Chee Cheong Fun

Penang Style Chee Cheong Fun is also enjoyable and tasty. Unlike the one at the Gardens, these chee cheong fun only costs RM 3.00 and RM 2.00 for a smaller portion.

I would definitely come here again for the food and the service.

Price

• Ipoh Style Chee Cheong Fun – RM 2.00 (Small), RM 3.00 (Big)
• Penang Style Chee Cheong Fun – RM 2.00 (Small), RM 3.00 (Big)

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court in Brickfields is a food court by day and a seafood restaurant by night. During lunch hour, this place is packed like hell.

May Flower Seafood Restaurant and Food Court’s Dry Pork Noodles

Dry Pork Noodles from Peter’s Pork Noodle is one of the best sellers but after waiting for 15 minutes (because of the orders), I am quite disappointed that the pork noodle is just mediocre. It is still nowhere close to Yit Sieang’s Pork Noodles.

Price

• Dry/Soup Pork Noodles – RM 4.00 (Small), RM 4.50 (Big), RM 0.50 (Add egg)

Nasi Kandar Kampung Pandan is located inside the food court of Wisma UOA II, Jalan Pinang.

Nasi Kandar Kampung Pandan’s Nasi Lemak

Nasi Lemak from Nasi Kandar Kampung Pandan is not the best-ever nasi lemak but it qualifies as the best within the premise of Wisma UOA II. Don’t even bother to try the nasi lemak from other stalls in the food court, or even the nasi lemak from Meals Station.

The Nasi Lemak is however usually sold-out early in the morning.

Price

• Nasi Lemak – RM 1.80

Mee Jawa stall in Pavilion’s Food Republic is often neglected by customers as it is located far at the back behind John King and besides Pan Mee stall.

Mee Jawa’s Mee Jawa

Mee Jawa as its name suggested, is famous with its Javanese noodles, or Mee Jawa in Bahasa Malaysia. The plate of Mee Jawa is huge as you can see from the picture comparative with the sppon and chopstick. Its taste is somehow rather mediocre and besides its humongous plate, there’s nothing really to shout about. Still, it’s better than Mee Jawa at Oldtown.

Mee Jawa’s Curry Laksa

Curry Laksa, on the other hand, is pleasant to eat, although I have to say its incredible hard to find one that’s as good as you can get from Penang.

Maybe Mee Jawa should be neglected, not just because of its location but of its food.

Price

• Mee Jawa – RM 8.50
• Curry Laksa – RM 7.20

If you fancy Taiwanese cuisine and don’t plan to fork out a bomb to pay for the food, Little Taiwan at the Food Republic in Pavilion KL is just the place to be.

Little Taiwan’s Stewed Beef Noodles

For just RM 3.90 (RM 4.10 including tax), you can get a bowl of lovely Stewed Beef Noodles. The pieces of stewed beef are delicious while the noodles are scrumptious despite the lack of spices. I other words, it’s healthy and yet, affordable. There is also an option of Stewed Beef Rice if you prefer rice instead of noodles.

Little Taiwan’s Tempura

Tempura is hot and crispy and is also delightful as a snack or even as your dinner — just add rice for RM 1.00 and it’s good to go.

Besides its mee siam and lonton, Toast Box also serves Curry Laksa.

Toast Box’s Curry Laksa

Toast Box Curry Laksa is different from others as it uses "Lao Shu Fen" or silver needle noodle instead or the normal yellow noodles. I have never seen anyone uses "Lao Shu Fen" for laksa but surprisingly though, it tastes quite good. You should give it a try!

Price

• Curry Laksa – RM 6.50

There are many types of cuisine in Food Republic and Korean cuisine is one of them. Sam Sam is the name of the stall that serves Korean food.

Sam Sam’s Janchi-Guk Su (Non Spicy Noodles)

The Non Spicy Noodles also known as Janchi-Guk Su is scrumptious with generous quantity of seaweed adds to it.

Sam Sam’s Shin Ramyeon (Spicy Noodles)

Shin Ramyeon or known to us as Spicy Noodles are hot and spicy but yet tasty. It tastes a lot better than Ichiban Ramen’s Ramen noodles even though both are completely different type of noodles.

Price

• Janchi-Guk Su (Non Spicy Noodles) – RM 7.00
• Shin Ramyeon (Spicy Noodles) – RM 7.00

Rama 9 which has extended its fusion Thai food to Pavilion KL also has a stall in Suria KLCC.

Rama 9’s Chicken Cashew Rice

Chicken Cashew Rice has nice offering in terms of the chicken and the cashew nuts. However, the rice seemed too hard, maybe slightly overcooked.

Its Green Curry Chicken Spaghetti offered at Pavilion KL is not too bad, but don’t bother to try Chicken Cashew Rice unless there are no other food available.

• Chicken Cashew Rice – RM 7.90
