Delicious and Fresh Sushi at Syun Izakaya, Downtown Hillsboro, Oregon

In Malaysia, I've been to a number of Japanese restaurants but I don't really see any of the restaurants with the Japanese feel - nor the restaurant is decorated in authentic Japanese theme. The outside of Syun Izakaya looks like any ordinary shops It is an eye opener for me to have a real "Japanese" dining experience at the Syun Izakaya during my last business trip to Oregon, United States. The restaurant really give me the feel that I was having my dinner in Japan, mainly because of the decoration - although I don't recall seeing the conveyer belt fetching sushi around the restaurant. The "Japanese" theme inside Syun Izakaya - something I always see whenever I watch any Japanese movie

Specialty Cuts and Combos At The Outback Steakhouse

Outback Steakhouse is an Australian themed steakhouse restaurant. Although beef and steak items make up a good portion of the menu, the restaurant also offers a variety of chicken, ribs, seafood, and pasta dishes. During my last visit to the United States, I dine at one of the Outback Steakhouse restaurant not too far from where my hotel is with a colleague of mine. Overall, I found that the restaurant is nicely decorated with Australia theme although the lighting is a bit poor as I find that the restaurant is a little bit too dark. The restaurant has very dim lighting It is very normal in the United States for the people to wait to be seated everytime we go to a restaurant and in Outback Steakhouse, we were given a device which is supposedly to vibrate if it is our turn but maybe because both of us went too far, and the device is out of coverage, the device did not really vibrate. Luckily the waitress there is good enough to still sit us when we ask about i...

Lou Wong: The Most Famous In Town Specialised In Chicken Bean Sprout and Kuetiau

It's been a while since my last visit to Lou Wong, "the most famous in town specialised in chicken bean sprout and kuetiau" and I must say, the quality of the this famous chicken bean sprout and kuetiau or otherwise known as flat noodle is definitely not the same anymore. I like the chicken bean sprout and kuetiau at the Lou Wong ever since I was a kid, even before I know that Ipoh actually famous for the dish and I only realized about this when I was in university. I can definitely say that the chicken bean sprout and kuetiau in Ipoh taste better than other places in Malaysia, not just because I'm from Ipoh, but because they taste much better, really.

Chicken In A Pot at The Apartment Downtown, Suria KLCC

The Apartment Downtown or also known as Malones at the Suria KLCC is an Irish restaurant and bars offering array of pork-free authentic Irish specialties menu. The restaurant is actually very easy to find - it is located at the ground floor of the Suria KLCC, the outlet is at the G48/139 and it is not easy to miss the spot as the outlet is just next to the KLCC park where you can see the water dance show at night. The Apartment Downtown opens daily from 11 am to 10 pm. Well, I went for a vacation in KL last month, coincides with my elder sister's birthday week as well as the holiday season and we decided to have our dinner at the Suria KLCC mall and it was extremely packed that day and most restaurants inside the malls were in fact full, and to our surprise, The Apartment Downtown still able to take in big table, and we ended up having our dinner there.

Dry Curry Noodle at Moon De Moon Restaurant, Kampung Simee

Moon De Moon Restaurant's name might sound a little bit weird and judging by the name itself one would not know that the shop is famous for Asian food, specifically famous for its dry curry noodle. However, this humble Chinese style kopitiam located quite remotely in the Kampung Simee did not deter some food lovers from going there to enjoy its famous dry curry noodle. I always went there early in the morning on Sunday before the church service, but I heard that the dry curry noodle is selling like hot cake almost every time the shop operates; usually sold out before 11 in the morning. So, to avoid disappointment, it is best to go there early in the morning to get a taste of this tasty dry curry noodle. Presentation wise, the dry curry noodle doesn't seems to look very "dry"; the curry gravy is on the thick side. I don't really see that it is mixed with some thick soy sauce that the dry curry noodle usually has; but then I think this is the specialty of ...

Seafood at Port Village Seafood Restaurant at Tanjung Harapan, Port Klang

When we were ask what is the famous food that people can get in Klang, usually the first one that come to everyone's mind is the Bak Kut Teh. Not many of us from outside of Klang realized that Klang is also famous for its seafood. Well, finally I got a chance to have the taste of the seafood in Klang when I went for a holiday in the Federal Territory last week. The seafood restaurant is Port Village Seafood Restaurant at Tanjung Harapan, Port Klang. Port Village Seafood Restaurant The idea of having the seafood for dinner at Klang was brought up by my sister's boyfriend when we had our dinner together at the Suria KLCC mall. And so we all met up at my aunt's condo's area and start the journey to the restaurant before six in the evening and we reached the destination just in time for dinner; with not many customers at the Port Village Seafood Restaurant. My first impression of the place? Well, I will be kidding myself if I think that it is full air condition...

Hot Plate Set of Grilled Pork Chop At Wong Kok Char Chan Teng In Ipoh Parade, Ipoh

If you are thinking of fresh grilled meat like the pork chop or chicken chop, then you should give the grilled pork chop in hot plate at the Wong Kok outlet in Ipoh Parade, which just opened recently. Another of the similar franchise opened a year or two at the De Garden, but I'm specifically mentioning the outlet in Ipoh Parade because the outlet in De Garden doesn't seem to serve very fresh food and cooked food. I ordered the hot plate set of the grilled pork chop in the Italian red sauce and the set comes with a soup, appetizer as well as a cup of drink. Although the price is on the high side, but then again, it comes with all those stuff, so it kinda worth for the price that we are paying. We can choose either the bosch soup or the cream soup and I choose the latter, I had the iced coffee for my drink. The appetizer was the mango pudding. The soup was a bit diluted; while the mango pudding has the mango taste, and it's a bit sticky and slimy; but both were ...
