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

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.

T-Bowl Concept Restaurant which is located on the third floor of QueensBay Mall, Penang is a restaurant based on Taiwan’s Modern Toilet Restaurant concept.

T-Bowl’s Toilet Bowl Seating

T-Bowl’s Toilet Bowl Seating looks exactly like the one in my house’s toilet

Someone even mentioned "Shouldn’t we put the toilet seat up?" Hilarious, but I have never thought of it.

Some of the T-Bowl’s Toilet Bowl Seating is pretty

T-Bowl is decorated to look like a toilet, it even has showerheads

Beneath the tables are the sinks

Basically, the restaurant is like a gigantic toilet where people eat instead of shit. Most of the seating is based on toilet bowl while they do have non-toilet bowl seat as well. If you fancy eating in the toilet, then this is the right place.

T-Bowl’s Toilet Bowl Chicken Baked Rice

T-Bowl’s Cheesed Baked Rice with Curry Chicken

The baked rice – Toilet Bowl Chicken Baked Rice and Cheesed Baked Rice with Curry Chicken taste almost like those in Wong Kok and Kim Gary. Of course with the concept of having your food in a toilet bowl instead of the normal bowl makes it extra special.

T-Bowl’s Tom Yam Seafood Flaming Pot

Tom Yam Seafood Flaming Pot tastes better than it looks. The tom yam is really flaming hot and has generous amount of seafood including prawns and fish. You can order bowl of rice to go with the tom yam.

T-Bowl’s French Toast

T-Bowl also serves toasted breads like French Toast besides noodles and rice.

Blue Curacao Bubble + Vanilla ice cream mocktail

Blue Curacao Bubble + Vanilla ice cream mocktail is just alright, Blue Curacao Soda in Food Republic, Pavilion tastes a lot better minus the ice cream.

Oreo Blended

Oreo Blended is somewhat new and different although McDonald’s serves it as ice-cream, Oreo Blended is an blended drink with Oreo bits and pieces in it. It tastes exceptional smooth and refreshing.

Soursop Blended

Soursop Blended tastes below par and perhaps slightly too sweet.

Honey Fruit Sponge Mellow

Honey Fruit Sponge Mellow is a dessert consists of Strawberry, Mango and Vanilla ice creams. Nothing really special about it. As long as they are not Chocolate, then it should taste fine. Haha.

Taiwanese food is quite popular in Malaysia. Shihlin in Pavilion KL introduces Taiwanese street food to Malaysians.

Shihlin’s Happy! Ricebox Set

Happy! Ricebox Set consists of Crispy Chicken (half of it), diced century egg, tofu and of course, rice. It costs RM 9.00 10.00 including drink (choose from V Soy soya bean or mineral water). The ricebox set without the drink cost RM 8.00 8.50, thus, the one with the drink is more worth it. The rice and the tofu is still okay but the amount given is actually too little.

Shihlin’s XXL Crispy Chicken

XXL Crispy Chicken consists of a gigantic, boneless chicken breast fried to a golden crisp. The chicken is served uncut and incredibly delicious.

Shihlin’s Handmade Oyster Mee Sua

Handmade Oyster Mee Sua has a generous amount of oysters and shredded chicken. If you are not a lover of oysters, perhaps you should skip this. Otherwise, it’s lovely and delicious. Best eaten with spoon.

Price

• Happy! Ricebox Set (with drink) – RM 9.00 10.00
• Crispy Chicken – RM 6.00
• Mee Sua – RM 6.00
