Mewah

Today is my shop off day, so together with my man and mil, we went to Desa Wira for its wet market. After done with our shopping, we stopped by this Mewah Delight coffee shop for breakfast.

It was right opposite to the wet market, the shop is next to this coffee shop.

Our first time having breakfast here. The operator operated most of the stalls and drink.  Mil and I went for kolo mee special (RM8). 

Hubby went for the mixed pork soup and noodle set for RM10. 

Decent taste and cheaper price, nothing to shout about.

Back for more claypot

Yes, we were back for more claypot dish at this eatery few days ago. This time, hubby and I brought Jay and my mil for dinner here. 

Hubby and mil had claypot rice each. I didn't take photos of the claypot rice but you can check it out in my previous post.

Jay, who is a noodle lover went for the claypot mee. Warm, comforting broth, he liked the Yee mee. 

As for me, I decided to try its bak kut teh this round. And my verdict? Mild flavoured soup but fitted me well. I don't like strong bak kut teh. I quite enjoyed my claypot dinner. 

Chung's claypot

We have wanted to try out this place but not till this evening. 

Chung's claypot, right across the road from Petronas in Batu Kawah New Township. It was a nice evening today so we decided to try a new eatery. Luckily we did!!

It claimed to be the best claypot rice in town, which we were in doubt at first. Somehow our first dining experience was good and the dish was nice. Best or not, it is individual preference. 

After looking through the menu, we settled for 3 claypot sets, which come with drink, a choice of Kopi O Peng or Teh O Peng. 

I went for salted fish pork rice which came sizzling right in front of me. Wow!! 

The salted fish pork was very tasty. I liked it!! RM15.00 for my set.

Mine came over pretty fast while the claypot rice ordered by hubby and daughter took sometime to arrive on our table. Jan chose the claypot chicken rice RM14 (above). 

Hubby opted for the claypot special rice which have the pork, chicken and Chinese sausage in it. RM16.60 for his set. 

Everyone commented the claypot rice rice was good. I agreed as I did took a bite. Well marinated and salty. We would definitely came back for more claypot. Not far from our place so whenever we are craving for a claypot dish, we will definitely think of this place. 

My favourites

One of my favourite chicken rice was from this coffee shop in Green Road. Used to patronise the chicken rice stall in the past when my girl was in her early secondary school days. We usually had our early lunch before she was off for her afternoon session. 

Not long ago, both of us went to the coffee shop as we needed to wait for Jay to finish his curriculum in Friday. She finished her Form 6 class at 1145am, while Jay finished his activity at 1230pm. So we decided to have our lunch here.

Jan went for fried chicken rice while I settled with steamed chicken rice. RM7 each. We also bought 2 packs for the boys. 

I liked the chilli dipping. Really nice to take with steamed chicken. The fried chicken was good enough as the skin was well seasoned. 

After we were done with our lunch, we went back to our car, to hid away from the scorching afternoon heat. It has been super hot these past weeks. Really unbearable. 

Dinner delivered

It was last month when I had our dinner delivered to our doorstep. My mil wasn't back then so most of the evening, either I cooked or ordered food delivery. 

I saw this Coffee Loong in BDC area which I don't remember trying in the past. Read its food review so I decided to give it a try. 

It took quite a while for the food to be delivered. Since it was pretty far and it was peak hour so it was understandable that the food arrived later than usual. 

I ordered 5 different type of rice dishes so everyone got to taste the different meat. The rice was quite a lot and so was the meat. At least they were pretty generous with the portion. 

Out orders were namru pork belly rice, fried salted fish fillet rice, butter pork rice, butter chicken rice and pork rib sauce rice. All (except butter chicken rice cost RM11.55) was arM13.64 each. My verdict?? The pork rib sauce rice was nice. The rice was cold but I reheat them in microwave oven. The kids finished up their meal so no comment from them. 

Before it ends

Not far from where I stay, there is this Borneo Food Festival. It started end of last month and today is the last day. 

 

So before it ends, together with my mil and three kids, we dropped by yesterday evening. Checking out the stalls and buying our dinner home. 

Not as packed as previous weeks. And not all stalls were opened but at least we managed to get what we wanted. 

They have some grilled stalls, fried snacks stalls, Asian cuisine and drinks stands. 

This braised pork stew stall attracted me. I bought one tub of pork belly stew for over RM65!! Tasted alright, broth not that strong. 

My kids's favourite stall!! Potato chip sticks. Each have one stick and each with their preferred flavour. Super crunchy chips. 

My preferred snack was Taiwan sausage, and I tasted out this stall. RM10 for 3 sticks. No, I tasted one only, the other 2 went to my 2 eldest kids. We enjoyed it while browsing through the stalls. 

Mostly grill stalls so you will expect we come out with those smoky smell from the food fair. We spent about 30 minutes browsing through the stalls. We didn't wanted to enjoy the food there although few vacant tables. Much prefer to buy and bring home to enjoy in the comfort of our home, away from the smoke, smell and crowds. 

Some food that we bought includes the crispy oyster pancakes. RM20 and it was yummy and crispy. 

The kids opted for burgers  for dinner. One chose mayo as their sauce base while the other went for "hitam manis" (sweet sauce). 

The pork belly stew that I bought for sharing with my mil. We had it again this evening as both of us can't finish it all. 

My mil took fried lou shu fen (silver needle noodle) with the stew pork. RM5 for the fried noodle. 

Breakfast with her

 My mil is back! She flew over last Thursday. 

Yesterday was the shop's rest day so I had breakfast with her in one of the newest coffee shops in MJC. You Hou Cafe, same block with Secret Recipe.

The place wasn't packed when we were there. Few stalls opened. Like laksa, kolo mee, lei cha, nasi campur, kuih stalls.  

Each of us ordered our own breakfast. My mil went for wantan noodle RM7. 

I wanted to taste the laksa so a small bowl RM7 for myself. 

Both was decent and average taste. Nothing to shout about. As long can fill up our tummies before we ran our errands was good enough.
