Tenji Japanese Buffet @ SohoKL

We did not managed to reserve a table at Tenji due to the ongoing buffet lunch promotion at RM49.90++ It was fully booked every weekend and even weekdays! So we tried our luck by walk in and we got a table! But that was after 45 mins of wait; well, it was nothing compared to the food we had later on.

We were seated outside whereby the waitress mentioned that area would be kinda warm but it was ok considering it was cloudy that day.


My first pick of the day is sashimi! yum~


Let's take a look at the rest of the food available here :


Italian food were served such as grilled squid, cheese baked mussel, grilled lamb and steamed sea bass. Other than this, pasta and pizza are served as well.

Paper steamboat! Seafood soba in miso soup. (This soup taste waaaaay better than the normal miso soup)

Inari sushi and chuka chimni

Edamame, cream cheese crab, tempura

Dim sum are served too! This is glutinuous rice in lotus leaf.

Unagi. I could salivate by looking at this picture.

Chinese dishes - marmite cooked crab and bamboo shell clams ; saba fish

Selection of teppanyaki

Crabs, prawns, mushroom, edamame

Variety of sushi

Unagi sushi

Squid sushi

Ebi prawn sushi

Cold dishes like chuka chimni

Condiments for paper steamboat

Fruits (not many left coz I took all these pics before I left the restaurant)

And even chocolate fondue!!

I ate until I cannot move! The food here is really oishi! ichiban!! Buffet lunch promo ends at Feb 15 so quickly make your way to Tenji! Ohh, one more thing - you get to eat Haagen Daz ice cream here! YUMMY~~

Frontera @ Jaya One

It was second day of CNY. We planned to have dinner at Duck King but the restaurant was closed. Most of the shops were closed so we decided to try Mexican food at Frontera Bar & Grill.

The restaurant is decorated with colorful crepe papers - Mexican style

Inside the restaurant

We skip the appetizer and ordered main course. First dish is Chicken Enchiladas. Itz tortilla with chicken filling baked in tomato-and-chilli-sauce (I guessed!). This comes with tomato rice and baked beans. The dark brown paste on the right (from the picture) is baked beans but it doesnt taste nice.

Chicken Enchiladas - RM28.95

Next is Tex Mex Burrito. White flour tortilla filled with chicken and cheese, rolled.This tortilla wrap is topped with cheese. Yummy~ Also comes with tomato rice and baked beans.

Tex Mex Burrito - RM19.95

After that is Spicy Prawn Diablo. Fried spicy prawns served with salad and tomato rice (AGAIN!) We requested the waitress to change the rice to fries instead. The prawns taste like "kung pao" style fried prawns. You can skip this dish - not recommended.

Spicy Prawn Diablo - RM29.95

Overall, I would not visit this restaurant for the second time as the food here is just so-so. I would rather go to Carlos Mexicana, Pavilion KL for Mexican food. Will blog about Carlos Mexican Canteena next time.

Boston @ Soho KL

We decided to have a cosy chat and wine at Boston. While browsing through the food menu, this restaurant serves oriental fusion. Somewhat like Chinese dishes mixed with Western style.

We ordered a bottle of Yellow Label Cabernet Sauvignon which cost a whopping RM103.

Bar Counter

This place is comfy for a chat with friends. Maybe this restaurant is still new as it is kinda quiet with not so many customers.

The interior of the restaurant

This place is open until 12.30am and located at a corner lot, first floor. There is also an open area outside but I find it quite stuffy.

Cheers~

Ole Ole Bali

A cosy Saturday nite dinner at Ole Ole Bali; SohoKL, Mont Kiara. We were seated outside the restaurant on a big wooden chair with big cushion pillows under an oversized umbrella. The ambience was cosy and comfy - great place to hang out. The interior and decos of this restaurant is very much Balinese style. Got to know that Ole Ole Bali is a sister company of Bumbu Bali which is located at Puchong. My friend told me that the food menu is the same!

Drinks were served first. Barley Lime juice is a concoction of barley juice and lime. The taste is extremely refreshing! A jug of barley lime which cost RM18 can serve up to 5 person. A better bargain if you go for a glass of barley lime which cost RM6.

Barley Lime Jug - RM18

So-called appetizer for the evening is sate lilit. Grilled meat paste (not sure what meat it is; most probably chicken or seafood) on serai/lemongrass stalks. This sate is not the usual satay you get from those satay stalls. This sate is minced meat so when you take a bite on it, it is soft and juicy. yummy~

Sate Lilit (4 sticks) - RM15

Another appetizer, Grilled Squid Salad. You can opt either grilled squid or chicken for this salad. Slices of oranges and keropok add a lil' twist to this salad. There are cherry tomatoes, chunks of carrots and cabbage in this salad served with grilled squid. The squids are tasty though a bit burnt.

Grilled Squid Salad - RM14

Now comes the main dish - Nasi Campur Ole Ole. A big plate of nasi campur with rice, grilled fish, chicken rendang, grilled squid and prawns, fried kangkung, acar-acar, sate lilit and keropok served with chilli sauce. I wonder how could 1 person finish this whole plate! I would really recommend this dish to you as this whole plate of nasi campur taste so good especially the grilled fish!

Nasi Campur Ole Ole Bali - RM33

Next is Nasi Kambing Bumbu. Again, a big plate of rice served with pan fried mutton, fried kangkung, acar-acar and keropok. The mutton is fried with basil leaves and dried chillies. The mutton pieces were soft and tender.

Nasi Kambing Bumbu - RM26

Ole Ole Trio is a combination of sate lilit (4 pieces), grilled chicken wings and deep fried sotong (also known as fried calamari). Among the three, I liked cumi-cumi goreng (deep fried sotong) the most.

Ole Ole Trio - RM38

Deserts time! Ice Campur is an ice concoction of bits of fruits (watermelon and honeydew) in santan milk with sago and mango slices. The santan taste very strong - not to my liking but my friend love it so much that she cant stop scopping this desert to her mouth :p

Ice Campur - RM11

Another bowl of desert - Banana Bowl. 3 scoops of ice cream served with banana and wafer pieces ; drizzled with chocolate and strawberry sauce.
This time, my turn to scooped the ice cream non stop :p haha..

Banana Bowl - RM13

Overall, the food is nice and the ambience is cosy. I would definitely come here again.

Teow Chew Meng

Restoran Teow Chew Meng is famous for its mee suah tow. When we first stepped in to this restaurant at SS2, we were surprised to see only 2 tables being occupied. Usually this place would be packed with people.

Mee Sua Tow is a pot of mee sua with your choice of either seafood, chicken or fish in thick broth. We ordered seafood and this pot is filled with fish slices, crabstick, squids and prawns. From the last time I tasted this dish which was last year, I think the quality of this mee sua tow has degraded.

Mee Sua Tow - RM11 per pax

Next is a salad dish which compromise slices of green apple, dried shrimps and beancurd - served with sweet and sour sauce. My fave dish for the evening.

Apple Beancurd - RM10

After that comes Fried Oyster Mee. A bowl of this mee comes with loads of oyster served in thick oyster sauce. Reminds me somewhat of Shilin Street Snack's mee sua oyster noodle just that this dish tastes slightly better.

Fried Oyster Mee - RM15

As for tom yam noodle, you could also select either seafood, chicken or fish. We picked meehun with seafood. The tom yam soup taste just nice - not too sour and not too spicy. A recommended dish.

Tom Yam Noodle - RM11

This plate of fried rice taste good as well. It taste like the normal fried rice that you can get from those 'dai chow' stalls.

Fried Rice - RM10

Restoran Teow Chew Meng

Pepper Lunch @ Pavilion, KL

You like pepper?
If you do, this newly open Pepper Lunch restaurant might be something for you.
And the good news is, you may forget about the service charge & gov tax. It's tax free !!
As overall, the concept is kinda new in m'sia. Give it a try !!

"Featuring Beef from Australia and New Zealand, Norwegian Salmon, Japanese Curry and our special pastas, all seasoned with Freshly Ground Black Pepper and served on a sizzling Hot Plate.
Sizzle it Your Way" from "http://www.pepperlunch.com.sg/"

Follow the steps to enjoy a fabulous lunch.

Beef Pepper Rice RM17.80 nett. Add on frizzy drinks or miso soup at RM2.50.
Oops... before I could snap a nice pix on what I'm gonna eat, the waiter kept asking me to mix well my rice with the butter else it's gonna get scorched. The real pix should look like this >> Looks gooo0od huh

Loin Fillet Steak RM33.80.
FYI, you need to follow the steps above as things are raw when served. Sizzle it till desired doneness.
I kinda like this loin fillet steak, as the meat is so tender and juicy. The combination of sweet corn and raw bean sprouts with the special sauce prepared make the set lunch yummier.

Dao Rae Korean BBQ @ Puchong

Craving for korean BBQ? Give a try at Dao Rae. This korean BBQ restaurant have a few branches in Klang Valley and Petaling Jaya. We went to the one at Bandar Puteri, Puchong this time.

Do notice the variety of side dishes served - bean sprouts, sweet potato slices, pickled radish, "ba li tong", mashed potato (it taste sweet - kinda weird), kimchi, spinach and pickled parsley.

We ordered KimChi Jigae - RM16. Kimchi soup with pork belly served in a hot stone pot. I am not a kimchi lover but this soup taste good. It doesn't taste sour and itz loaded with tofu, veges, tang hoon and pork belly.

Korean white rice which cost RM5! This is not the normal white rice you eat at home or chicken rice stall. These grains of rice is very soft and filling. Eventhough RM5 is pricey for a bowl of plain white rice but I really recommend you to try :)

Next is Daeji Gal-bi RM27 - Pork ribs marinated in special sweet soy sauce. This dish was recommended by the waiter.

Another shot of the side dishes.


Pork Special - RM35. Itz selection of cuts from pork slices. This dish was recommended by the waiter also. After the pork slices were cooked, you need to dip it into sesame oil and chilli paste for more flavour as it was not marinated.

Fresh lettuce served FOC with every BBQ dishes ordered. You eat these lettuce by wrapping the bbq meat with bits of side dishes, sesame oil and korean chilli paste. yummy~
