Steamboat at HomeTown (Jalan Genting Klang)

The other day, I was curious on one of the restaurants that seem to be crowded on a daily basis, the HomeTown. It is located next to Kenny Rogers along the Jalan Genting Klang road. It is very difficult to find parking for those of you who might be interested. Most people park at the side road and that's what I did.

There are two shop lots, one with air cond and the other without. The place felt a bit cramp though with the tables and chairs arranged closely. Service was pretty good with quite a lot of staff working there.

We decided to try the award winning Tom Yam soup and a herbal soup. One thing that is very good about the menu is the variety of offers that we can find there. The Tom Yam soup is amazing and for those of you who love Tom Yam, this is definitely one place you must visit for steamboat.

Instead of serving only one standard steamboat set, there are a few other sets you could choose from and each of them come with different ingredients and pricing. I think this is good because not everyone love seafood while some are a big fan. Here, it helps you to choose based on your preference. The Seafood set cost about RM16.50/pax with better selection of seafood. (Clams included)... Then, there are other sets like the Ketamine Crystal Ball set, which is priced at RM15.50/pax. (More processed food). We got ourselves one of the set at about RM16.50/pax.

The food here seem fresh and in a rather big portion. I wish I have taken more photos here but my stomach couldn't wait the moment the food came. I couldn't have much complain...

At the end of the meal, the bill come to a total of about RM52 plus inclusive of drinks. I think it was totally worth the money even though just the two of us were eating...no service tax or other extra charges....I definitely wouldn't mind coming for steamboat again at this place...remember, this review is coming from someone who don't fancy steamboat....this shows how good it is...

[Wine Recipe] - Roselle Wine Recipe 24_11_2012

I was thinking to do something different for this blog during the weekend, and something pops up in my mind which is to post the wine recipe. There are so many wine recipe around that it will be too difficult to keep track and at the same time, I would love to blog about it, so that I can use the wine recipe that can provide me with the taste of the wine that I wanted in the future. Well, I can just treat it like another type of log book for this "experiment". Anyway, to make wine for home usage, it is not that tedious, just that you will need to have the correct recipe with the correct material, then voila, you can start making your own wine. Of course, for high volume production, it will be another story as it will involves a lot of machines and stuff like that. Roselle wine

Roast Tarragon Chicken at Alexis in Great Eastern Mall

Having lunch break in Alexis must an expensive one because the food portion that was served by the bistro and wine bar is not huge but it is a little bit expensive; although it is about the same as what you might be getting at The Apartment .

Restoran New Twenty-Twenty [Jalan Pandan Indah]

It is not so easy to find good hawker food in Kuala Lumpur as compared to in Ipoh. Anyway, over the weekend, YenLeng and I went to this food court, known as "Restoran New Twenty-Twenty" in Jalan Pandan Indah and found it to be quite acceptable, especially since it's a rare chinese food that open for 24 hours. (FYI, there are quite a few of these food courts in the area so I'll probably frequent more of the others next time). Anyway, the first thing I noticed about the place was that it's not clean (quite similar to most of the chinese hawkers place) and the coffee ice here is horrible, just like most of the places in KL. I didn't even bother to take photo of the coffee and it's RM2.30 for a Ice Kopi, totally not worth it. Here's what I have though...."Ho Fun Ching Tong", or Kuey Teow soup with fish balls. I don't think it's the best that I had since there are better ones in Ipoh but it's really quite good in comparison...
