Food Review - Warung Kak Aishah, Bandar Baru Nilai

We have ran out of ideas on what to eat. We had tried practically most of the outlets in BSP and don't feel like driving to BBB.

My better half just drove around Bandar Baru Nilai in search of food. We were starving, the clock showed 3.15pm and we have yet to have our lunch.

Then, while driving to Desa Melati(yer kot, forget2 remember lah!), we came across this place called Warung Kak Aishah. We saw quite a big crowd here, and assuming the food must be good since many people were enjoying their food.

My hero and princess ordered Laksa. Sedap!!!

My better half and my baby had Nasi Ayam. Biasalah, perut melayu, tak dapat nasi tak sah.

While I ordered Kuey Teoe Goreng and requested for this to be extra spicy.

We also ordered ABC, suitable for the hot weather.

If you noticed, my hero ordered Laksa kan but now he is eating Kuey Teow. After he finished his laksa he tried my Kuey Teow and love it! So, he ordered another one.

So, the review :

Ambiance - 3 - oklah, just like the typical gerai place

Location - 3 - Along the shoplots so quite convenient. Parking will not be a problem.

Taste - 3.5 - excellent, memang sedap giler!!

Service - 3.5 - excellent! fast and sopan sungguh

Price - 3.0 - not bad. for this good food, very affordable.

Will surely make another trip to this place again. The kuey teow goreng is to die for!!!

Food Review - Nasi Beriani Gam Putrajaya

Last Saturday, we wanted to watch the Dragon Boat race and exhibition in Putrajaya. We thought this will happen until night time however by the time we reach there around 6.30pm, all stalls have started packing and ready to go home. I guess we were too late and actually the event ended at 5pm. We told the cuties we will come here again.

My baby was already hungry and I don't feel like going to Alamanda. Bosan ler pulak every weekend we have been coming to Alamanda.

I suggested to my better half, why don't we take the cuties to Nasi Beriani Gam Putrajaya. We've been there once and that was without the cuties. Since it's not that far to drive, we made our way to that direction.

We ordered Nasi Beriani Gam Ayam for the girls while my better half and hero wanted the mutton beriani. My baby actually wanted Ayam Masak Merah but it was all sold out. So, she settled for Ayam Masak Beriani instead.

Here's the review :

Ambiance - 2.5 - It's like a typical stalls so nothing to shout about.

Taste - 2 - For this trip, quite dissapointing. The first trip was much better. This time the gravy tasted a bit bitter, like the spices were too much.

Location - 3 - at that time quite strategic, but parking maybe a problem

Service - 3- not bad and quite fast

Price - 2.5 - On the high side. The beriani ayam costs us RM11 each while the mutton RM13 each.

I don't think we will come here again. Don't want to be dissapointed again

Food Review - De Palma Cafe

Why were the cuties looking so restless. Did Liza wrongly put the title for this entry...Isn't it supposed to be the food review entry...

Well, this was our wedding anniversary dinner. Not really planned cause we thought to have a simple affair this year. Just dinner and presents were not made mandatory (though my better half cheated by getting me a very nice name card holder and he argued because he thought I need that for my job, ye lah bang!). We don't have a good idea where the dinner should be. Then, I remembered while driving around BBB, I saw this De Palma Cafe located in the PKNS building. If I'm not mistaken, this is part of the De Palma Hotel management.

We arrived there around 8.05pm. There were not many people around which we were so glad thinking we will not have to wait so long for the food. How wrong was thought.
Baby had mushroom soup which arrived 30 minutes after we ordered. And that my friend, is only mushroom soup.

My hero ordered buttered chicken rice and came 15 minutes after baby's order. He was starving and immediately digged in the food. He did not talk to anyone while eating, pandang kiri kanan pun tak. That's how hungry he was. Similar to my princess who ordered Chinese Fried Rice. Sampai tak sempat ambik gambar the food dah habis.

I ordered this sour sop juice and rib eye steak. Arrived over an hour after ordering. My appetite has been spoilt so did not actually enjoy the food.

And why no food for my better half? Well, he did order the ribs which did not arrive even after all of us finished our food. So, he went to the counter and calmly told the waitress to cancel the order, went on to pay for the food and we left after that.

I know him and if it's not our anniversary dinner, he would have gone beserk there and then.
The review? Tak payahlah, not worth reviewing food, tak kiralah the quality of food, and the you wait forever waiting period.

Food Review - Ayam Golek Dara, Nilai

Nope, I have yet to give up on my diet. But, weekend will be the day I will enjoy the good food with my family. However, I still stick to one meal per day thingy. So far, self discipline still is in tact.

We have been wanting to try this place. We heard it from our community forum and they recommended for others to try this place. It's located right after Pekan Nilai, the road leading to Labu. It's about 20 minutes drive from where we live.

This place only opens 4pm onwards. Choices are quite ok, of course the speciality will be the Ayam Golek. This is eaten with Nasi Lemak which by the way is so delicious.

I also had Char Kuey Teow which was also not bad.

The cuties were so excited watching the ayam bergolek. Love to watch them!(the cuties I mean, not the ayam)

Nasi lemak happens to be my hero's favourite, so, he was really enjoying himself with the spicy sambal.

Now the review :
Taste - 4 - My better half is so very fussy plus cerewet ya amat when it comes to food, so seeing him enjoying the food speaks for itself.
Location - 4 - easy access for us, no toll, no traffic jem, just a lot of traffic lights
Service - 4.5 - very efficient and friendly
Price - 4 - very affordable, for food we had, it only cost us RM20.

So, cuba jgn tak cuba!

Food Review - Roti Canai Bandar Baru Bangi

Last weekend, we have planned to have breakfast at this place recommended by Ms GTL. She said, during her uni years in UKM, this place was(and still is) very famous among the students. This place is located in Bandar Baru Bangi, near the furniture mall and opposite Esso petrol station. It's right after you enter the Kajang exit along the PLUS highway heading to Bandar Baru Bangi. Quite easy to identify. The place is on a small hill with loads of cars and people.

We arrived around 9.15am and already, there are so many customers. The place was packed and we got the last 2 tables there. Actually, they not only have Roti Canai there, they also have nasi lemak(with lots of choices for the lauk), soto(mee, mee hon, nasi impit), otak2 and tahu bakar. We ordered mostly everything on the menu ; nasi lemak sambal kerang, soto nasi, otak2 and of course nasi roti canai(one each for everyone).

The service was quite efficient. We were attended to immediately after we were seated. The food also arrived not so long after that. Except for the otak2, apparently they forgot about this order.
Now, the review....

Taste - 3 - Ok lah...nothing to shout at, but somehow, I felt all the food were kurang masin, I thought it was me, but my better half and the cuties also felt the same way, healty food kot?Location - 3.5 - convenient for us considering we are now part of Bangi clan, but parking may be a problem cause it's quite limited.

Service - 4- fast even there were many customers around

Price - 4 - cheap, the breakfast for all of us with all the above menu was less than RM20

And look who we bumped into there. Dato' Dr Fadzilah Kamsah. From the way he converse with the shop people, either he is a regular or he is just friendly to everyone whom he just met. He looks older though compared to him in TV.

Last word, be early if you want to eat here. When we arrived, they were already announcing, they don't accept orders for take away. Laku betul kan!

Food Review - Buffet Ramadhan Katerina Batu Pahat

It has been a tradition for us to bring our parents for buffet Ramadhan during this fasting month. We started this about 4 years ago, considering that we are more financially secure and why not share the wealth with you loved ones.

Last weekend was with my in-laws in Batu Pahat. We brought them to Katerina Hotel(yup, the hotel where the so called ex-minister's hotel happened) since this is the only descent hotel in Batu Pahat.

They were 10 of us ; my mom and dad in-law, Adik, my brother in-law and wifey plus the 5 of us. We had pre-booked this earlier to ensure that there are table for us.

If you noticed, my princess and my baby are now into tying their hair in 2. Ini keje Adik ler nie...

The buffet spread was ok, I guess, worth the price we are paying, RM30++ per head for adult and RM20++ for the cuties. Mana nak dapat this kind of price kat KL ok??

The decorations were really classic. They even have entertainer to sing while we enjoy our meal. But the problem was, that man should be singing Raya song, not the Golden oldies hits from Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra, just to name a few....Sometimes it felt like we are in a club...

They even have organised a lucky draw event. And, don't even asked whether did any of us win...Pernah ke we all nie menang lucky draw pun...

So, now, here's the review.

Taste - 3.5 -Not bad, love the spread, really kampung, siap ada ubi goreng and rebus cicah dengan sambal kicap. Of course, the asam pedas was a hit
Location - 3 - ok lah, about 30 minutes drive from the kampung
Service - 4 - excellent service, very customer service oriented
Price - 4 - with that kind of choice, I felt it was worth it...

Nak kena survey tempat lain lah, every year eating here, bosan gak kan....
