Food Name :
Hong Kong-Styled Chee Cheong Fun (LaiCheong 拉肠)

Food Type :
Chinese Cuisine (Singapore & Malaysia)

About the Food :
Chee cheong fun are square rice sheets which are used in Singaporean cuisine and Malaysian cuisine. The sheets are made from a viscous mixture of rice flour and water. This liquid is poured onto a specially-made flat pan in which it is steamed to produce the square rice sheets. These wide rice sheets that are steamed are then rolled. They are often filled with different types of meats or vegetables inside but can be served without any filling. Popular fillings include beef, dough fritter, shrimp, and barbequed pork. Often topped with soy sauce.

The Chee Cheong Fun follows Hong Kong style. The stuffing choices are only available from shrimp and char siu (barbequed pork). The default one would be a mixture of both the shrimp and char siu. There are two choices of servings available, which are the small one and the big one. There is a half-spoon of sambal for those who fancy spiciness, it's not too spicy anyway.

Price :
A small plate of Chee Cheong Fun is RM 3.00, for a bigger serving, it would cost you a RM 3.80.

Location :
It's a stall in a restaurant and the restaurant is located along the main road of Serdang which leads to KL or Balakong. The market is at the back of the restaurant. So, it's pretty crowded with people in the morning especially on the weekends. The parking spaces are rather limited since it's near to the market.

Address :
强记香港猪肠粉
Restaurant Sin Choo Sang Kee
Jalan College, 43300 Seri Kembangan.

Specialty :
The rice sheets are thin and smooth. A generous offer of the sauce to eat with the cheong fun is highly appreaciated too. The shrimps though not big in size , but are rather fresh too. :P

Environment :
The environment is so so, just like the normal coffee shops. If you have a choice, don't sit on the inside as there's a stall selling stir fry food located on the side of the inner part of the restaurant.

Personal Comments :
It's delicious. I love it for the thinness and smoothness of the chee cheong fun and the generous serving of the sauce. Often, I found it hard to swallow the chee cheong fun without the sauce, but not with this one! :D As for the fillings, the seller uses small or midsized shrimps and average-tasted char siu only. A big serving of this Hong Kong-Styled Chee Cheong Fun is often more than enough for an average-eater like me.

Food Name :
Chicken Rice

Food Type :
Chinese Cuisine - Rice

About the Food :
It's all about meat! lol ... You can have a choice of Roasted Duck Rice, Roasted Chicken Rice, Roasted Pork Rice, Char Siu (Chinese Barbequed Pork Rice), Assam Fish, Tofu, Vegetables and a variety of stewed soups as your meal.

Char siu (Simplified Chinese: 叉烧; Traditional Chinese: 叉燒; pinyin: Chāshāo), also known as Chinese Barbecued pork, BBQ pork, cha siu, and char siew, is Cantonese-style barbecued pork. It is usually made with long strips of boneless pork, typically pork shoulder. The distinctive feature of char siu is its coating of seasonings which turn the meat dark red, or occasionally burnt, during cooking. The seasoning mixture for char siu usually includes sugar or honey, five-spice powder, red food colouring, soy sauce, and sherry or rice wine.

Price :
A plate of normal Chicken Rice is RM 2.80, same goes for a normal plate of Char Siew Rice. As for Chicken + Char Siew Rice, it would cost you a RM 3.30. Different pricing applies on different mixture of dishes, which also means you can order a plate of Char Siew + Chicken + Roasted Pork + Roasted Duck Rice. Yes, you can! Just don't expect it to cost you only RM 3.30. :P

Location :
It's located along the main road of Serdang which leads to KL or Balakong. It's between a Fatty Loh Chicken Rice Shop and Mei Sim Dim Sum Restaurant. Thus, parking spaces are rather limited. If you are lucky, you will find a parking space in front of the Public Bank. It's a very short distance away from the restaurant and it's a very good choice already. Though if you are luckier, you might be able to get a nice space just in front of the restaurant (which is often unavailable).

Specialty :
There's the Char Siu Sauce which is best served together with your rice as nice gravy. The sauce is defaultly available if your ordered Char Siu Rice, however, if you need more, you can always serve yourself from the stall front. It's sweet, however, the sweetness is just appropriate for my liking. There are also various stewed soups available. I always ordered the Herbal Chicken Soup there, though it's a little too ajinomoto-flavoured. But nevertheless, the herbal taste is slightly strong, which is good. :P

For the Assam Kampung Fish, I personally think that the fish tasted just average. However, the generous serving of the assam sauce might just be a good gravy for your rice. It's a little sour and not spicy. It's quite appetizing as well.

Environment :
The environment is ok, just like the normal coffee shops. But it might get a little stuffy on a big hot day. Anyway, and again, for the delicious food to be offered, who cares? Do you? :P

Personal Comments :
It's cheap and delicious, a rather good choice for lunch, especially on weekends when you do not wish to visit any shopping complexes and when you are on a tight budget. :P

Yummy Yummy @ Taman Equine Yong Tau Foo

It was my first visit here although it had been opened for one or two months. Overall, the taste is average, nothing special about except that the dumplings are not bad, tasted fresh and sweet (credits to water chestnut as part of its ingredients). For a little piece of information, the yong tau foo is priced at RM 0.80 per piece.

Yong tau foo ( also spelled yong tao foo, yong tau fu, or yong tau hu ) is a Chinese soup dish with Hakka origins commonly found in Singapore and Malaysia. In Malaysia, the Ampang region of Kuala Lumpur is particularly famous for this dish. Essentially the dish originated in the early 1960s by a restaurant called "Chew Kuan" as tofu stuffed with a meat paste of fish and pork, thereby earning the dish its name "Yong Tau Foo," which means "stuffed bean curd." Since then all variety of vegetables and even fried fritters have been similarly stuffed, and the name Yong Tau Foo has thus been used liberally to apply to foods prepared in this manner.

Yummy Yummy @ Hakka Village

In Serdang, one of the quite famous restaurant would be the 客家村 a.k.a. Hakka Village. I have been to Hakka Village which located at Serdang for many times, but I never cover its food here. This time, I am going to write the very first article for the restaurant itself.

The restaurant offered a variety of dishes at an affordable price. Normally, a meal consist of tofu, chicken, vegetables and pork would cost diners of four around the range of RM 40 to RM 55. If you want a place which offers good value for money, I would definitely recommend you this restaurant!
