Secret of Louisiana @ Plaza Kelana Jaya

This was recommended to me by my IT guru, Tey Boon Siong.

Secret of Louisiana is a quaint eatery situated in Plaza Kelana Jaya.

The outer verandah overlooks the lake, ensuring a healthy breeze every now and then...

Their latest promotion is All-You-Can-Eat Pasta Set Meals for only RM14.80.

(excluding Govt. and Service tax)

Basically, you get ONE free glass of iced lemon tea, ONE serving of dessert, and bottomless soups.

Now, the pastas come in servings of 4oz each (small portions).

But the catch is that you can order repeatedly...and even other pastas in the set menu!

The only obstacle is your own appetite.

Creamy Pesto White Fish

Smoked Chicken Sausage

Carbonara Chicken

Skip breakfast (and possibly dinner the day before if you can).

Because you WILL leave this place feeling bloated and stuff.

Try to eat a minimum of THREE plates (which is what I did).

Definitely worth the price.

Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii @ Tropicana City Mall

Prior to my trip to Singapore, me and my aunts went Tropicana City Mall to exchange RM(s) for SGD(s). After a little grocery shopping, the urge for coffee came up as the 3 of us are avid coffee drinkers. The choice was either Starbucks or this new place that caught out eye - Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii.



Supposedly, this place serves coffee made from Hawaiian coffee beans, especially those from the island of Kona. Now this place seemed to have its fair share of customers when we arrived. So, it ought to be good right?


Evidently, Bad Ass is trying to edge its way into the markets currently dominated by Starbucks and Coffee Bean. It offers its customers WiFi services and even has a decent section for merchandise. Some of their T-shirt designs were quite cool and the Hawaiian print was tastefully designed too. I also met my secondary school mate, Johann Sze who was working as a barista there.



Time to order. My aunts shared 1 cup of the house specialty, which was the 10% Kona blend. I had the same thing, only it was iced. In addition, my aunts also ordered the Oxtail Soup. Lately, I found that I CAN enjoy coffee in its black, bitter state. (I think my body and my aunts secretly rejoiced that I'm lowering my sugar intake).


Now, everyone would agree that coffee is naturally bitter. Iced coffee would also naturally taste a little watered-down (due to the ice). However, my aunts' HOT cup of 10% Kona Blend coffee tasted like coffee-flavored water. Not a good first impression as Starbucks was only a few feet away. However, Johann was gracious enough to replace the 'coffee-water' with a new cup. This time, my aunt said it tasted better (more 'kick') but that it was still a little 'watery' for her liking.


The Oxtail Soup turned out OK. However, its consistency was too 'watery' and should have been 'thicker'. Notice the 'ring' above the surface of the soup? This made us suspect that the soup had been left on the counter for some time before it was brought to our table. True enough, the soup was lukewarm to the touch, producing only faint steam clouds.


At the time, there was a promotion going on where you get a certain number of stamps in order to redeem discounts and free F&B. Johann was so gracious (again) to give me a fully-stamped discount card. However, we didn't use it in the end. Even though the service was great (Thanks, Johann!), the quality of its F&B definitely put us off any future excursions onto any of its Hawaiian-themed outlets.

Ninja Joe @ Tropicana City Mall

This will be my first BAD review.

(As in the food is bad, not my review!)

Went to Tropicana City Mall after swimming with Laura, Jolene, Grace Wong & MC. Jolene and MC were boasting about this 'super-chun-awesome-PORK-burger'. So, why not give it a try?

When I reached the place, alarm bells started ringing. The seating area was quite small, but there weren't many customers anyway. The Ninja Joe burgers came with 6 different sauces, from original to sweet and sour to teriyaki.

Roughly, actual size.

The size of the burger itself will strike you first. Considering that one of these minuscule excuses cost roughly RM3, I personally find it overpriced and not worth their value. Oh that reminds me, their personnel need to learn more about customer service.

Me: I'd like (my order) without chilli and veggies please.
Server: Uh...without chilli and veggies ah...??
Me: (thinking) Don't you dare say it's ready made cos I can see the cook making
it through the serving window. (In the end, I got what I ordered.)

I'd rather spend RM4 on a double meat patty burger at any Ramli burger stall.

Ramli Burger @ Balai Bomba SS2

Occurs near any good Ramli burger stall.

I went out with Eric, Wai Yew, Rui Wei, Kian Min to the nearby Ramli burger stall over at the Balai Bomba SS2 entrance. This stall has changed ownership within the past year but the constant stream of customers parked by the roadside proves that the taste is still their liking.

The menu of burgers and their prices

The concept of Ramli burgers are no longer alien to us Malaysians. We often find them set up along roadsides, sometimes right in front of 7-Eleven. The good cooks will always scrap off the excess oil, which supposedly ensures that the burger is moist with juices from the meat patty and not the oils.

Can you imagine the aromas?

All in all, these Ramli burger stalls are good alternatives to late night cravings for those of you who cant be bothered to drive to the nearest mamak. I'll bet there's at least one Ramli burger stall near every one of you reading this. You just need to keep your eyes (and nose) open.

Pan Mee @ Chow Yang

Went to Chow Yang in Petaling Jaya the other night for dinner. Parents were eager to try this 'famous' pan mee shop there, so decided to tag along since I had no other dinner plans.

Look for this sign.
- Same row as Kayu Nasi Kandar.

There's not much to choose from their simple 1-page menu (which probably explains why there were so little people eating there, but maybe it was a slow night...).

This is their ONLY menu.

My entire family ordered either the dry or soup version of the house pan mee.

Soup

Dry

In my opinion, this pan mee doesn't really have any special flavour or smell.
Tasted pretty much like any OTHER pan mee in any hawker stall and smelled just as ordinary.

However, my parents strongly believe that to really bring out the flavours, you should eat the pan mee with the special house blend of chilli powder (which probably explains the name).

Looks...*gulp*...hot...

Tempting as it may be to find out the truth of my parent's chilli claims, I'll leave it to the braver of you readers to investigate this matter at your own (stomach's) risk.
