Lucky Dessert (發記甜品)

A recent friend invited me for a complimentary review at this place at one of Hong Kong's fine dessert restaurant, Lucky Dessert has been around since 1998. Its integration into the Penang's market started off at Queensbay with its latest outlet opened just one week ago at Gurney Plaza's basement. Serving a variety of desserts from cold sago soup to crispy roll series to glutinous rice ball to simple wrapz. It's stall is a simple one decorated in mostly red and white theme. There were 4 table sittings with round chairs and a row of sofa seat. Workers are very friendly and helpful as well.

They also listed out their history and achievements on their menu.

I was able to try out 3 of their signature desserts. Unfortunately, I could not eat a lot as I did not have another friend to share the portion with me and trust me, for the price you pay, the portion is definitely worth!
So, here are what I have managed to try out.

mango wrapz RM5

trinity mango delight RM9 (featured as Hong Kong's best dessert award in the year 2000)

(frozen mango used as puree is blended together with sago and pomelo and no ice was used to maintain the natural sweetness and thickness)

banana crisp RM12

(banana and chocolate cake wrap in an exceptional thin, crunchy and crispy skin- surprisingly the banana blends in well with the chocolate cake)

For the current promotion in conjunction with the opening of their outlet, Lucky Dessert is giving a 50% discount on second item of the bill.

breakfast @ Jalan Alor, KL

While we were still at KL, we decided to try out the famous hawkers along Jalan Alor, Jalan Bukit Bintang, KL. We had our breakfast at Restaurant Cu Cha famous for their "wan tan mee".

though famous for their "wan tan mee", Restaurant Cu Cha also has got other stalls selling chicken rice, etc

our main star for the post-the delicious "wan tan mee" (everyone gave it a thumb's up for its springy and crispy noodle)

"wan tan" in soup which comes with the "wan tan mee"

hot coffee

iced nescafe

Food and drink taste just as good. Nevertheless, the price for a plate of "wan tan mee" at RM4.50 each is of course not cheap. But still, i would not miss it if i ever go to KL again.

Til then, happy eating!!

Fung Lye @ The Gardens, KL

After my first post on my lunch in KL. Here was what i had for dinner. And, i certainly got to acknowledge my cousin brother, Davis and his wife, Jocelyn for bringing me to this wonderful restaurant to dine. Not only do they have good food, they also have perfect service!
Located in The Gardens, a complex frequented by lots of people, you definitely got to be prepared if you have to wait long before you get a table. Nevertheless. this Taiwanese restaurant "Fung Lye" has got comfy cusions located outside of their restaurants specially for patrons who are waiting for their seats. Not only that, the patrons are also served with specially brewed tea while waiting to be called to their table.

According to Davis and Jocelyn, this restaurant is famous of their sweet potato balls too which costs only RM4.90. Unfortunately, we were all very full from our previous meal and so we did not order. Also, the set which we ordered were very big in portion.

taiwan minced-meat sauce noodle-RM17.80

fried sliced beef with green onion in claypot set meal-RM19.80

 three varieties of supreme diced chicken-RM19.80

All the set meals come with a bowl of rice and 3 other side dishes (change daily) and a bowl of soup. And i love the ones we got the other day.

fried lotus root (a little spicy and crispy-nice); fish cake (not so bad); a kind meat (duck probably-too cold)

  love the way the soup is served-in this authentic china porcelain bowl

 fried vegetable

cold oolong passion-RM7.30

papaya milk juice-RM7.30

apple yogurt juice-RM7.30

"Fung Lye" is definitely a must-try especially for those Chinese-food keens.

lunch @ Fung Wong, Berjaya Times Square, KL

I spent my last weekend at KL, 1 main reason to attend my company's annual dinner held in the newest 5-star hotel, The Royale Chulan Hotel, situated in KL town area. Of course, i also took advantage to walk around KL, hunting for nice food.
As we stayed very near to Times Square, we have decided to catch a quick lunch as it was late noon when we arrived at KL. And, this place named "Fung Wong", situated on the 3rd floor of Berjaya Times Square, just right opposite of Old Town Kopitiam caught my attention.

 It was as nicely decorated as the other dining places but the food definitely smells good from outside.

 The prices here are not that expensive as well. You can get a plate of rice from as low as RM5 and a cup of drink from as low as RM2. And, you can tell this place has definitely got its own customers' frequency too.
Well, here was what we ordered...

chicken rice-rice given was definitely more than the usual 1-bowl

taste: superb!!

upclose of the chicken from the chicken rice-looks yummy huh?

hor-fan-taste good too

sweet and sour pork which comes with a bowl of white rice

our drink for the day, iced lor-han-guo

"Fung Wong" is certainly worth a try if you happen to be in Berjaya Times Square, KL.
