Absolute Thai at Ikano Power Centre





I'm on a crispy spring roll hunt! And after laying off Beef for a long while, I earned my privilege to ... eat beef again! What better way, as recommended by the restaurant of Absolute Thai, its one of the chef's recommendation dish. Beef Noodle Soup. Oh ya, back to the crispy spring roll. Crispy and nice. The main flavor is actually the chilly sauce. Opps! I didn't get to shoot the sauce. Well, that's why you got to go and try it.



Anyway, the other dish is spicy chicken with a sunny side up on steamed rice. The chicken is so spicy that one mouth full of it.. made my ears watery! But if you like spicy, this is the food to go for.

Drinks to cool you down are watermelon and orange juice.

Little Vietnam at Midvalley, KL

This is my star wars night! Animated. Yup! I love star wars so much, I don't care if the show is cartoon based. Alright! Nuff about the star wars. More on food and where I'm heading this time is Midvalley. Well, been to Midvalley a lot of times. Introducing to you all a specialised country cuisine which you have tried it at other shopping malls. Today's Little Vietnam Restaurant.





For starters; Crispy Spring roll. I opted to try the fresh rice wrap over the crispy but my partner prefer crispy. Still delicious though. As refreshments, its Ice Lemon tea and Soda with Lime juice. The Soda with lime juice gives an exquisite taste. Refreshing!



Main course: Spaghetti with Siu Mai (look-alike meatballs). Parsley is a little too much. But still yummy. Next is Chicken Curry rice. Delicious as well. Only if it gives more curry sauce.

Fong Lye: Taiwan cuisine - Gardens Midvalley



What is the best way to feel like you're in Taiwan, but not having to be there? Not having to pay for airtickets, few hours of flight and booking of hotel? Just eat at Fong Lye's Taiwan cuisine at Gardens Midvalley. That's just what we did. Just before our booked tickets to GSC Signature Cinema for the movie The Mummy 3, we went down just 1 floor down and ate at Fong Lye.

Waiter and Waiteress will greet you in Taiwan "welcome". Seated comfortably on the mini table just fit for 2, seats are cushiony and with comfort. Didn't know what to choose but tried the 2 set dishes as they were marked as "very good" on the menu.






I ate the tomato fish sauce set and my wife ate the seafood mix set. Expect the seafood to be a bit pricy as the mini steamboat has not only prawns in it, but crab parts as well. If you are a tomato lover, then the sauce is yummy delicious. The set comprises of the a bowl of rice just nice, 3 side mini dishes - taufu, a spring roll, garnished cucumber. It comes with a soup as well. Mine was old cucumber soup.
