Nasi Minang (Part 2) - Restoran Sambal Hijau, Sungai Penchala, Kuala Lumpur

At last I got chance to eat here, Sambal Hijau (green chili paste) restaurant after heard about it for quite sometime. It serves Minang and Malay dishes as well, open from 6.30AM until 2AM. When looking to its food counter, there were still variety of dishes left over from lunch hour since I reached there about 4.30PM, otherwise I would cramp my head to choose which dishes to eat. I will come here again during lunch hour to drool other dishes and it would be packed with people, I bet!

Nasi Tomato, Jalan Sungai Pinang – Penang

Nasi Tomato with ayam ros

I was suggested by cousin to try out nasi tomato or tomato rice at this stall if go to Penang island. It is easy to find the place, after come down from Penang bridge, take Jelutong Expressway towards to Georgetown. Not long enough before you reach Georgetown, take exit to Sungai Pinang and right after you pass the Jalan Jelutong and Jalan C.Y.Choy junction, go straight and you will see the stall beside of the road on your right. The car park was really terrible because there was no proper parking bay since the stall just at the busy roadside with yellow line parking restriction.

Mee Tarik, Restoran Habatus Sauda – Sri Petaling, KL

Have you ever eaten mee tarik or hand made pull noodle? This restaurant is the best place you can try out the mee tarik because it is not easy to find the halal one. Habatus Sauda restaurant opened last year at this shop lot along Jalan 1/149J, nearby Sri Petaling Community Centre. It has nice hot wok dishes and kebab, previously but since it changed the management recently, the only main attraction or specialty menu of this restaurant is its mee tarik or La mian (拉麵)

           The pull noodle is made on demand so you can see the Chinese muslim cook press and stretch the dough become thinner then become bunch of noodles. The raw noodles then straight away are put in the hot boiling water in the pot. After few minutes the noodles will be prepared in its soup contains of baby mustard greens (sawi) or choy sum and sliced beef with some sesame oil and spring onion. The noodle is very nice with its soup and it is not spicy and hot at all, suitable for kid meal. The Chinese muslim cook is originally from China mainland and he has more than 10 years experience making the noodle, inherit from his great grandfather and family. He only knew some Malay words so we used most hand and body language to describe our word in our brief conversation.
