Hokkien MEE

 

The best mee in town. Definately Hokkien Mee!

My parents found this place whereby it is the best we have tasted so far. This chef (called Ah Wa) used to train under a very super duper chef somewhere in KL. It seems that in Malaysia there is a shortage of good hokkien mee chefs these days, but just so happens we just found a sifu!

Hokkien mee is basically noodles cooked with soy sauce, some pork, some prawns and ate with sambal if you like.

It seems the restaurant is that famous until it is listed on google maps!

Its about RM 10 per portion. Quite expensive by comparison but its worth it! And fyi, if you order a RM10 plate X2 it is much better than ordering a Rm20 because they cook very much less. Not very fair…..

Here is the mystery chef:

Ah Wa

 

TASTE IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOD , price is okay….because the portion is rather small for the price, plus when you order a bigger portion they cook even less =.=

REMEMBER! Ask AH WA to cook! It really tastes better! Hor CIAK!

BUBBA GUMP SHRIMP

This time TNS is taking you to an American restaurant called Bubba Gump Shrimp.

The one i went to is actually at the entrance to the Sunway Pyramid Lionhead. The drop off point for must people. You can’t miss it.

This restaurant is actually from the show “Forest Gump” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forrest_Gump. Its a really good movie.

Anyhow you would be wondering how it became a restaurant? Well you see, in the movie, the main character Forest GUMP , enlists himself in the Army, he meets a african dude called Bubba, who comes from a long line of chefs. They can make shrimp into thousands of dishes as shown in the movie and therefore ta-daaaaaa, you have the bubba gump restaurant!

Bubba gump shrimp

Well as i said in the movie, they talked alot about shrimp, hence alot of the menu is shrimp but they still do have other seafood choices and some meat dishes like chicken burgers. You can click on the picture below to see the menu better.

Now this is something i liked alot. Its the Onion Ring Tower It really lives up to its name because as you can see, it is bigger than the heinz ketchup bottle in the backgroud. It comes with a special type of thousand island dip that tastes phenomenal!

Oh btw, notice the sign at the back that says “RUN FORREST RUN”. Actually if you flip it, it says “STOP FORREST STOP”. Which means that you want to call a waiter. It works but sorta inconvenient too.

Now here is the GARLIC BREAD. Well tastes like ordinary garlic bread. Comes on a news paper too. I tried reading the news paper, there is actual news from the movie on it.

This was my Fish and Chips. I liked it because of the HUGE portion of fries and coselaw, but the fish fillets are a miserable sight. I was hoping for those usual one big piece because i hate when my fish is cut into small portions. Makes it seem as though i get so little fish. I was full because of the fries not the fish. But anyhow the fish and the tartar sauce was very good.

This was the 4 shrimp combo (or something like that….) Ever ran out of ideas how to make variations of a certain dish? Well this gives you, tempura prawns, fried prawns, cold prawns and 1 more but i can’t remember what it was XD . Each pocket is like 4 shrimps inside? Enough for only one person like me or better to share instead ;) .

So here it goes:

7 nuggets and a burnt note.
