It also means we will bring in around KL to savor our local culinary delights. When he asked to eat local food, he really meant local. Day one - we went for Restoran Leong Ya Indah for chinese food, yong tao foo and Paper Wrapped Chicken. So that was for lunch, and for dinner we took him to Satay Kajang Hj Samuri @ Kajang. Although we understand that he wanted to go to Nirvana Maju (his favourite restaurant), we explained to him that the standard has gone down these days. Day Two, I ended up in Sg Wang with him souvenir hunting for his Thanksgiving party, when he returns home. Dinner was at Seri Melayu, and it was to be my first visit there. I have not attended cultural shows in Malaysia before in my life, although I have fallen asleep in many other cultural shows, in other countries..wakakakaka... my own country's show wa tak pernah pigi oh... kekekeke
These samples really got my hopes up, all the ingredients were fresh, and the recipes were authentic and everything was well cooked.
For the third round, I got myself a bowl of Laksa Johor. Its fun to go for this type of buffets, because , you can learn to make those laksas yourself. Its a DIY type stall, where you cook the noodles in hot soup. and pour in the laksa gravy onto your noodles. Also at the side are all the extra condiments meant for a laksa bowl.
And more hip swaying by some chicks.
The quality of the cultural performance, reminded me why I never attend these shows. Tourists might just go home and forget about it, but as a local, I can only ponder if these people can be good dancers and be more authentic. Later I found out, my American friend has already been to Saloma four times previously, and experienced the same type of cultural dances 4 times before. Luckily we took him somewhere else. Different place but same food and dance.
He never complains about food, so his only answer was, "...it was really good, I enjoyed it !" I thought the food was good, the spread was enormous, it had really authentic Malay Kampung food(minus the house flies when we eat at stalls), authentic chinese, and authentic Indian food. They always have a roast lamb or two at their western corner, plus, for dessert, you can always go for fresh fruits (local), stuff like Leng Chi Kang, Ice Kacang, and the usual disappointing Wall's Ice Cream.

But I am sure we paid a little bit more, in Nov last year.

honest speaking i dont really lik malay laksa... cos i dunno why their noodle all putus putus 1... the fishy soup base taste weird~ SATAY lover miii~
ReplyDeleteyammy - but thats the essence of Malay laksa, its made from bits and pieces of broken fish. Traditionally they'd use ikan kembung or something like that, of course fishy la.... their noodles putus putus like lou shee fan lidat ma... no need bite so much ma.... wakakakaka
ReplyDeletehmmm 70++ expensive wei..nxt time try bijan? im sure order ala carte also around that price but u really get some good stuff there..
ReplyDeleteerm... but I have also tried RM110 buffet at Planter's Inn, at the old Hilton .. and found it abit too pricey for the quality... I thought this place is expensive, but you get really authentic stuff...
