Food Review - Vacation @ KB - Yati Ayam Percik

The final nite @ KB was the nite where we were searching for another good dinner at KB. I went to this one place while doing some work at KB before, so I thought that would be a good place to go for dinner.

The place is called Yati Ayam Percik. It's about 5 minutes drive from our hotel and when we reached there, the place was quite pack.

The cuties were excited watching the chicken and beef being grilled right in front of their eyes.

We ordered Nasi Kerabu accompanied with Gulai Kawah, Ayam Percik and Daging Bakar. The food was as good as how I remembered it to be.

My better half just couldn't resist to try one of the dessert. He said it was awesome!

Now the review :
Taste - 3.5 - suits my taste very well
Location - 3.5 - not having to drive that far was very ideal for us Service - 3 - oklah, but mcm slow skit
Price - 3.5 - very worth the money, cheap!

It's quite sad to leave KB the next day. We pledged to come here again and this time with more money...for more shopping!!

Food Review - Vacation @ KB - Nasi Ulam Cikgu

After the shopping trip @ Pengkalan Kubor, I wanted to bring my better half and the cuties for lunch at a very prominent lunch place at Kota Bharu. The place is called Nasi Ulam Cikgu. I did not get the chance to take photos of the signboard so found this via google image. I had lunch here during one of my working trips to Kota Bharu.

My baby was so tired waiting for her mama doing the shopping that she slept all the way to the makan place.

This place was very crowded. We reached there around 2pm and thought that's like after lunch hour so there won't be many people there. Well, there were alot of people there.
This place is famous for all the ulams they served. You can see so many type of ulams and some you may not have seen or heard before.

My better half and the cuties had ikan patin and ikan keli while I had fried chicken since I don't take ikan sungai. Of course with the ulams and sambal belacan. Still don't have the guts to take budu.The cuties love this place, so did my better half. I'm glad, cause I really wanted to share the places I've been to with them.

So, now the review :
Taste - 3.5 - everything was ok, just that we were late so not there's not many choices
Location - 3 - parking was very difficult, we parked right at the junction and prayed that we don't get a ticket
Service - 4 - very friendly and fast
Price - 4 - cheap. All in with drinks were only RM25

This place is very worth visiting if you are in KB. Make sure you do drop by if you are in the neighbourhood.

Food Review - Umbai Seafood Galore @ Melaka

The moment we have been waiting for...Okaylah, at least, the moment I have been waiting for. The main reason why we decided to be in Melaka. Of course, to have a seafood fiesta at Umbai. Very famous and well know for the fresh and delicious seafood.

We left after maghrib prayers and the place was already jam packed. We felt it's gonna be difficult to get a parking space so we parked quite a distance from the makan area, in front of the nearby houses. It was about less than 10 minutes walk to the place.

We were recommended to visit the first stall called D Muara. We managed to get a place to sit and when my better half and I wanted to choose what fishes and seafood to have, we were denied from our right to order(haiyoo, why sound so serious), apparently the kitchen couldn't cope with the current orders. So, we decided to change to another restaurant, and the only place that have table for us was at the last stall, called Parameswara.

We ordered butter prawn, lala masak pedas, sotong goreng tepung, ikan jenahak bakar, sup cendawan and of course eaten with of course nasi lemak! When all the food arrived, we thought...banyak giler! Sapa nak makan nie...

Actually, the food was finished selicin-licinnyer...Yup, I forego my diet for this one night. Seminggu sekali takpe, make sure buat heavy work out tomorrow to burn all those calories.The total bill was only RM100. That was below than what we expected. Now the review :

Taste - 4 - really sedap! We were afraid we will be dissapointed since we did not eat at the recommended stalls but we were so please with the food! Hingga menjilat jari!
Location - 3.5 - Ok, if you are already in Melaka, I admire those those who are willing to drive for good food, wish I have the guts to do that. And this place that we ate, it was facing the river so the breeze was really nice
Service - 4- fast even there were many customers around
Price - 4 - cheap, we thought it will come to at least RM200....

What I learnt today?

It was a good thing we have this family bonding thingy before we start with a New Year where life will be back to the normal hecticness. And wanting to ensure I keep one of my New Year resolution, I have started to make early planning of the holidays in 2009. Again, work just need to stop when it's time to be with family!
