Sushi Kitchen @ Jalan Sungai Ara

Sushi Kitchen is a Japanese organic plant-base cafe (meatless and all vegetarian) founded in early year 2009.

However, they had stopped operation for couple of months last year and resuming business in June 2010 after received tons of good responses from patrons.

They have the passion in delivering the message of saving the mother earth and humanity.

Imagining the extraordinary climate change in recent years and the natural disaster befell on Japan, who will pledge that it will never reoccur?

Be pleased that we live in harmony with all loving cares.

Save the planet is everyone's responsibility.

Bravo Italiana @ I-Avenue

This invited food review Bravo Italiana was organized by Round U Sdn Bhd. First time meeting those professional food bloggers were pleasantly surprised and such a wonderful experience for me. Felt so grateful to be one of the invited ones :) Specially thanks to Round U Sdn Bhd and Gourmetgarden.

Once stepped into the restaurant, the overall impression gives you the feels that you are inside a classical Italian Museum. Also, the wall decoration increase the Italianish house atmosphere surrounding you.

These trophies in the cabinet are the awards won by Mr Lim previously from Cayman Islands, and it did attract me at the first sight. Furthermore, previous branch also been awarded first prize in the Food Hygiene Premises under the category of Air-Conditioned Restaurant.

As usual, the menu :)

Mr Lim – the only chef cum the owner. He has eight years of working experiences in Italy alone, not including the years working cruises in Florida and other countries. What amaze me more is that he alone able to handles the intense customers’ order from the kitchen and at the same time managing the restaurant to have running so well.

Fish Head Noodle, Sungai Ara

My friend who stay nearby that area recommended me this, he claims that how great and how tasty is the sour and spicy soup. So i decided to give it a try.

Luckily we reached there earlier at 11am. Started to see some crowd after 12pm.

It took about 15 minutes to serve the food.

I heard some of them experienced wait for half an hour to 1 hour. Imagine that?

Maybe you can get some snacks from there.

Sour and Spicy Fish Bee Hoon Soup RM6

7/10 I like the soup!! Seriously the soup taste good and the deep fried fish fillet is perfeSuppose can give 8/10 but 1 mark deducted for the slightly raw bee hoon and need to spend some times to choose out those spices which dumped into the soup.

Mum went back to the stall and consult them,

"Why the bee hoon taste raw? Can spend some times to recook this for me?"

"Ohh... the sense of biting of this type of bee hoon supposingly taste that way"

No offense. Maybe it's the truth? Or might be we are those unlucky?

Maybe i should go and try it out again on another day to taste and see whether it's supposingly like that or not.

Fish Bee Hoon Clear Soup

hmm, this is tasteless.

Bangkok Tomyam @ Jalan Mahkamah Bayan Lepas

,Bangkok Tomyam - Citarasa Ala Thai, the excellent Malay food. This is where the place i'd lots of memories with fellow Dell-ians in the past few years. It's kind of unforgettable as we'd lots of joy, laugher and tears over here. Everyone getting excited when anyone of us suggest, "Let's go Bangkok Tomyam for lunch!" Tomyam! Tomyam! This place use to be the venue for farewell though.

Since i lefted Dell 2 years+ ago, i'd never step into this place anymore until last month i went again. Just because of the long lost Sarawakian ex-Dellian darling come back to visit us :) The familiar structure of building, few changes here. At least cleanliness is improving as I didn't see much flies as before a bunch! Or maybe i went on the good timing this time? Hahaha! Menu change to a better presentation but still with the same pricing.
