Matta & Miao

Sarawak Matta Fair 2017 was held last weekend in Boulevard Shopping Mall and we went to check out what special offers the exhibitors had after our church service.


Hubby and I planned to go for an overseas vacation this year so we took the opportunity to scout around for good packages. My sis is in travel agency line so we also bumped into her in her booth.


As for our holiday?? We have paid deposit and counting down to the day we fly. *wink*


There is this cafe that I have been wanting to check out for the past months. Miao Cafe. Located in Soho East, Jalan Wan Alwi (at the side of Earthlings Coffee), I read on good reviews about its fish fillets.  On Saturday, together with my kids (hubby was not around as he has gone for a day of training), we went to Miao Café around 2pm for our late lunch. Kids done with their semester exam, so it was a mummy's treat for their hard work and effort. 



Not so hard to spot the café. Set up is simple and clean. The servers were friendly too.


Their main menu is fish but they have chicken, toasts and coconut ice-cream desserts to accompany your lunch, tea break and dinner.


A quick look at the menu. We decided to order a set of 3 fish fillets + 6 side dishes + 3 dipping sauces for sharing at a price of RM61.90.



We have to order at the cashier counter where you could check out the kitchen and what they are up to. *wink* Food will be served to your table.

Since only 2 tables that afternoon, we did not wait so long for all our food to come.  Ta-da!  This set is fit for 4 persons to share.




The fish fillets were good.  Not crispy as not much batter coating but I like it that way.  It was very fresh; no fishy smell at all. Definitely not those frozen dory as they claimed they use good premium fillets.




Our 6 side dishes consisted of thick cut fries, mash potato, coleslaw, mix salad, coconut rice and onion rings.  We opted for 3 dipping sauces, namely tartar sauce, aioli sauce and sambal belacan.


And our lunch ended with an ice cream dessert for sharing among us. The BRB, which is a coconut ice cream with grass jelly, lychee and basil seeds for RM8.90. I love coconut ice cream; very refreshing and not overly sweet.


For deliveries, do check out their website.

  1. When are you two lovebirds flying off? Where to? Leaving the kids behind? Wahhhhhhhh!!!! Honeymoon lah like that, No. 4 on the way. LOL!!!

    No fish and chips for us now as the fillet is coated with flour, and the Sugar Bun ones with bread crumbs, not gluten-free. :(
