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

Recently, Meals Station has added several new items on its menu.

Meals Station’s Assam Laksa

Assam Laksa is one of the new items in Meals Station. The Assam Laksa in Meals Station is satisfying even though at RM 7.90, it seems a little too pricy.

Meals Station’s Mee Rebus

Mee Rebus, meanwhile, is not bad but definitely not among the best items on the menu. If you love noodles, I would still recommend Meals Station’s Curry Chicken Noodles.

Meals Station’s Orange Juice

Fresh Orange Juice surely quenches the thirst on a hot afternoon, but I think this juice needs more ice cubes.

Price

• Assam Laksa - RM 7.90
• Mee Rebus - RM 6.90
• Fresh Fruit Juice, Orange - RM 3.50

Address

Meals Station,
G-11, Wisma UOA II,
No. 21, Jln. Pinang,

Restoran Pun Chun in Bidor, Perak is famous with its duck noodles as many travelers and food critics alike have probably dropped by this restaurant on the way up North.

Restoran Pun Chun’s Duck Noodles

Pun Chun’s Duck Noodles is delicious although a little bit too pricey.

Restoran Pun Chun’s Wantan Noodles

Wantan Noodles is not quite worth it if you order pure wantan only as they only give you four pieces of wantan while the normal one has three wantan plus char siew. Somehow, the char siew is quite stiff and as good as the wantan.

Restoran Pun Chun’s Wu Kok

Pun Chun’s Wu Kok (or Taro Dumpling in English) is quite popular as well with people purposely come here to take away these dim sums.

Restoran Pun Chun’s Iced White Coffee

Iced White Coffee is lovely to go with the great oily food.

Price:

• Duck Noodles - RM 6.50
• Wantan Noodles - RM 4.50
• Wu Kok - RM ???
• Iced White Coffee - RM 1.70

Address:

Restoran Pun Chun,

Besides luncheon, Meals Station is a good place for a cup of tea, be it morning or afternoon.

Meals Station’s French Toast

French Toast in Meals Station is crispy and appetizing even though not good enough to satisfy one’s hunger.

Meals Station’s Black Currant White Coffee

A great toast should always come with a cup of coffee and Black Currant White Coffee is perfect as it was reviewed previously.

Price

• French Toast - RM 3.80
• Black Currant White Coffee (Iced) - RM 3.80

Nyonya Colors is a place which serves nyonya food and is located in AEON Bukit Tinggi Shopping Centre.

Nyonya Colors’ Mee Siam with Honey Chicken

Mee Siam with Honey Chicken is marvelous as it is unusual to pair off mee siam with a sweet dish like honey chicken. However, with honey chicken sweetness, saltiness and spiciness of the mee siam, Mee Siam with Honey Chicken is really satiating.

Nyonya Colors’ Yellow Curry Laksa

Meanwhile, Yellow Curry Laksa is uniquely in yellow (like the name of the dish) and consists of pumpkins!

Nyonya Colors’ Fresh Lime + Sour Plum

Fresh Lime + Sour Plum is good to go with the delicious nyonya food in Nyonya Colors.

Price

• Mee Siam with Honey Chicken - RM 8.90
• Yellow Curry Laksa - RM 8.90
• Fresh Lime + Sour Plum - RM 3.30

Address

Soup kuey teow is quite popular in Penang. In Butterworth, Restoran Sai Toh Lim is quite famous with its soup kuey teow. It is located on Lorong Ceri 7 off Jalan Uda.

Fish ball is the highlight of the restaurant as the name (????) speaks for itself.

Sai Toh Lim’s Soup Kuey Teow

Soup Kuey Teow is no doubt savory and good to every bit.

Sai Toh Lim’s Dry Kuey Teow

Dry Kuey Teow is slightly less appetizing even though the chili is quite good.

Sai Toh Lim’s Hokkien Prawn Noodles

Hokkien Prawn Noodles is pretty tasty with Penang flavors. You don’t get these too often in Kuala Lumpur these days. So, it’s good and spicy!

Overall, the food in Restoran Sai Toh Lim is quite good and dirt cheap with RM 2.50 for small bowl and RM 3.00 for big bowl, you won’t find these price in KL.

Price

• Soup Kuey Teow - RM 2.50
• Dry Kuey Teow - RM 2.50
• Hokkien Prawn Noodles - RM 2.50

3JC is a different type of kopitiam — it’s popular for its meatball. With five branches all over the Klang Valley, we happened to drop by its Plaza Low Yat’s branch.

3JC in Soup, Kuey Teow

3JC in Soup, Kuey Teow is delicious with the right flavor and the meatballs are simply tantalizing.

3JC in Curry, Kuey Teow

3JC in Curry, Kuey Teow is also satisfying, every part of it. Like 3JC in Soup and its other dishes, 3JC holds on to its five fundamental factors which include Freshness, Feeling, Taste, Nutritious and Presentation. If you look at the pictures, you will know what I mean.

3JC’s Coffee (Cold) and Ice Honey Lemon Tea

The drinks are quite alright, especially the Ice Honey Lemon Tea, which is full of flavor and thirst-quenching as well.

Price

• 3JC in Soup, Kuey Teow - RM 6.90
• 3JC in Curry, Kuey Teow - RM 8.80
• Ice Honey Lemon Tea - RM 3.80
• Coffee (Cold) - RM 2.80

Once very famous for its Wantan Noodles, Koon Kee is now pretty quiet and isolated. Koon Kee is well-known for its Wantan Noodles. Located in the midst of Petaling Street (Chinatown), Koon Kee is not exactly easy to find. It is hidden behind the throng of stalls in one of the intersections of Petaling Street.

Koon Kee’s Wantan Noodles

Although it’s slightly pricey, the Wantan Noodles has generous fillings and has very little MSG, unlike the wantan noodles elsewhere. For RM 5.30, it can easily fill your empty stomach and make you feel bloated. You can always order the smaller plate for RM 4.30, but mind you, the fillings are not as generous as you get by paying the extra one buck.

Koon Kee’s Har Kow (Prawn Dumplings)

The Har Kow (Prawn Dumplings) is quite filling as well and is delicious though there are better ones somewhere out there.

Perhaps, Koon Kee has lost its glory day and for now, it is more suitable to be labeled as a tourist attraction rather than an eatery for the local.

Price

• Wantan Noodle (Big) - RM 5.30
• Wantan Noodle (Small) - RM 4.30
• Har Kow Soup - RM 5.00

Address

Kedai Koon Kee,

Chinta Noodles & Desserts is one of the stalls in Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre’s food court at the concourse floor.

Chinta Noodles & Desserts

Chinta’s Chicken Rice

The Chicken Rice tastes horrible as the chicken is not fresh like those you get elsewhere. Nothing beats NZ’s Chicken Rice.

Chinta’s Dry Curry Noodle

Dry Curry Noodle is at least, not as horrible. In fact, it tastes pretty good, much to my surprise. The curry chickens are also abundant.

Price

• Chicken Rice - RM 6.00
• Dry Curry Chicken - RM 5.80

Madam Wong Cafe serves the same food as Station Kopitiam and both have almost similar taste.

Madam Wong’s Buttermilk Sauce Chicken with Rice

Buttermilk Sauce Chicken with Rice is a delightful, at least, it’s better than the Crispy Buttermilk Granules Chicken with Rice.

Madam Wong’s Kung Po Chicken with Rice

Kung Po Chicken with Rice is not too bad either.

Madam Wong’s Honey Lemonade Ice and Lime Plum Juice

Both the drinks, Honey Lemonade Ice and Lime Plum Juice are so-so only.

Price

• Buttermilk Sauce Chicken with Rice - RM 8.30
• Kung Po Sauce Chicken with Rice - RM 8.30
• Lime Plum Juice - RM 3.50
• Honey Lemonade Juice - RM 3.50

Toast Box is a kopitiam comparable to the likes of Daily Express, Hometown Kopitiam and Kluang Station. After the success of Toast Box in Mid Valley, which is owned by BreadTalk, a Singapore-based bakery, Toast Box branches out in Pavilion KL as well.

Toast Box @ Pavilion KL

Toast Box @ Pavilion KL looks better than the one in Mid Valley Megamall but it’s located within the crowded food court, Food Republic.

Toast Box’s Mee Siam Soup

Mee Siam Soup is quite up to the par except of course, it’s in soup. Despite that, it still tastes better than Kluang Station’s Mee Siam.

Toast Box’s Lonton

Meanwhile, Lonton is slightly below the average expected standard with nothing to shout about.

Toast Box’s Coffee (Cold)

Price

• Mee Siam Soup - RM 6.50
• Lonton - RM 6.50
• Kopi (Cold) - RM 2.80

Address
