by your logical mind..
It can only be understood by your palette..."

Yohoo...
At last, we've made this happen in the REAL world..

To make it short..

Noodle & Nasi Lemak, Alor Street

Nasi lemak!
One of the most appetizing street goodies you could find in Malaysia!
This is a good one that I ate in Alor.



Noodle soup..
A thing you could also find in almost every street of KL..

Warm barley..
Taste like soya milk..haha

Good fishcakes and fishballs for the noodle's accompaniment.

The Lao Pan..hahaha

They are all cheap.
Cost around 4-6RM per portion.

Other Alor Street Goodies =)

I've spent 5 days in KL.
Well in Alor especially and this is other goods you could find in Alor..
hohoho..
Yumm..yumm..

Below, is Ice Cincau.
You could find it in Indonesia but this one is one of the best Ice Cincau I've ever tried.
Aromatic, but not to strong with nice tangy cincau thinly shredded..^ ^

Street Pao!
They open their stall at 9pm..
Soo..
It could be classified as supper super snack.
Nice. No diet here..
They have many variations anyway..
Lotus seed, charsiew, kaya..etc..

This one is Air Mata Kucing.
personally, the name really attracted my eyes so I decided to buy..hahha..
It's actually Lo Han Kuo.

Satay Celup..
Hmm..
Sounds weird.
For anyone who doesn't have any idea of what this is.
This is actually an ordinary satay with the peanut sauce, but instead of grilling the meat, the boil it in boiling water..^ ^
So they got big pan of boiling water and another pan of boiling peanut sauce and they put the raw ingridients on the side. We should just take what we want, cook it, eat it, and pay it.
There are chicken satay, crab, fish, seafood, hmm..

Sugarcane and Young Coconut stall..



Noodle stall which I visitted on the previous post..

Yea..this is Alor street..
Food..food..and food..

Last and the best, DURIAN!!
I'll never go home from KL without eating their famous durian.
This durian is just perfect.
Not too thick but really sweet and tasty..
I just couldn't resist the velvety texture of the succulent meat.
But, it's pricey..
18RM times 3000 rups is 54.000 and it's small..T.T

I've no longer in Alor but these memories will always be in my heart..
Wakakakakakkakk...
Romantic enough?

I'll give :

9 out of 10 rating for Alor + 4,5 thumbs up!!

Indian Food at Alor

This part is when I was left alone in the hotel room when my fam went to a Driving Range to do some driving..
I watch TV..
More film ... more film ...
AARGGHHH!!!! I need some nice little treat!!!
.
So..
I went to Alor just to explore some street goodies there :)

What I found was a street Indian Food!!
Yumm.. Fate led me directly to good food.. ^ ^

For who don't know what's the stall's like about, it's like a small stall with several tables for people to eat. The foods were already cooked and we just have to choose whichever we like and EAT.

I chose a Mutton Curry, Potato Curry, some pickles for the accompaniment, and rice off course.
4,5 RM

The Mutton Curry was so thick and flavourful. Spicy, but not hot. The mutton was tender and it's gamey flavour was really giving it a kick. All the spices harmonized really well to make such a delicious curry which we could only find in Indian Food.
The potato curry was also good, similar to the usual Padang Curry..haha..
The pickles tasted sour and a bit salty with a touch of sweetness. It was a great accompaniment that it refreshed and cleaned our palette after indulging the thick and rich curry with the gamey flavor of the mutton.

Sai Woo, Alor, Kuala Lumpur

Our first order, fried oyster. 8RM
hmm..
Cu Cha had a better one I think.
It's just to bland and only few oysters..T.T

Curry Mee. 6RM
It's okay. But the gravy tasted a bit too bland, didn't have curry mee's usual richness.

Char Kwe Tiao. 5RM
Big portion, but nothing special.
Big prawns but not really kicking.

Ah Yee Bakute, Alor, Kuala Lumpur

Ah yee bakute!!
First, I have to said that this is the best bakute I've ever taste in my life..in KL I mean..haha..
It's located in Jalan Alor at the right side..



Their champion, the bakute!! 9RM for single portion 20 RM for family portion.
Look at those layer of fat of the pork belly, the pork intestine and other innards..yumm..
sinful but irresistable..
I dunno how to describe the soup's taste..
but it has just kind of richness that I didn't find in any bakute I've tried in KL.
It's just like a really thick consistency richness but it's actually just a normal clear bakute soup!
It's just perfect.
The balance of the herbal flavour, the pork broth, hint of sweetness..
all kick'n your palette..
so good.

My recommendation, order the family portion and eat together with your friend.
It's a really big portion and all individuals could share this sinful bakute together..haha..


Brased tofu. 2.50 RM if I'm not mistaken..
I dunno why my dad did order this thing..-.-
but it's not bad.
quite good I think.haha..
maybe because the soup contained a little bit pork broth..XD

Stir fried kangkung with belacan.. 6 RM if I'm not mistaken.
Good. With it's nice "frying" smell..
But bit too salty.
Perfect to be eat with rice.

Plum juice.. 3.50 RM
salty, sweet, sour, all are blended together in this juice.
It's good mate!
Really refreshing.


So for overall, Ah Yee certainly is the best place to eat bakute..
They got their specialities handled really well.

Cu Cha Restaurant, Alor Street, Kuala Lumpur


Cu Cha restaurant is located in Alor Street, Kuala Lumpur and it is certainly the most crowded resto in Alor Street, that's the main reason we come here.
It has many small stall inside the resto like bakute, satay, dessert corner, BBQ corner, etc. So it's so much fun there.


My mom tried hainanese rice with BBQ Pork and Charsiew
The Hainanese rice is a bit to bland for me and the rice itself was a bit overcook.

The charsiew is so good. From it's texture we'll know that this charsiew is so fresh that it's got a really tender texture like it's just been roasted before you order..haha..
The sweet red sauce was nice, just a nice compliment to the tender meat.
The roast pork is definetely the champion of this resto..
This is truly the best roast pork i've ever tried in my live. You'll always crave for it's perfectly crisp skin and the really tender meat inside. It's perfect.
The meat itself was quite dominate the inside coz it's only a thin layer of fat with really thick layer of meat. Good for diet.
This roast pork is so good 'til we order the next portion only roast pork without charsiew! haha..
(picture below)



Ice Kachang.
This was the first time I tried Ice Kachang. It tasted like chendol for me..
The palm sugar quite dominated the taste but for overall, it's not bad although I prefer Indonesian Ice Campur..haha..

Char Kwe Tiao.
Good, mostly because of it's frying smell..needs more cockle..haha..
5 RM if I'm not mistaken.




Bakute. 12 RM.
The first time I tried this dish..
hmm..
I like it's soup so much which I think has a really rich taste and a lot of filling to.
But this is not the best bakute I tried in KL..
I'll post Ah Yee bakute next time..hehe..


Fried oyster. 10 RM.
I actually expect more than this..
I thought fried oyster means a lot of oyster with omelette but this one seems like omelette with oysters garnishing.
Taste okay.

BBQ Wing. 2,4 RM each.
Quite expensive but I envy this so much since it's everywhere along the Alor Street and people keep on buying it. So I ordered this on my second visit to Cu Cha.
It taste like ordinary roast chicken actually only that this wing is truly big size.haha.

Lee Chian Kang.
It's actually Ice Sekoteng in Indonesia..hahaha..
Taste good but I've tried richer one than this.


The Laksa seller in Cu Cha.


For overall, Cu Cha is a good restaurant although one of the most expensive in Alor.
But it's the most crowded there so it must be good.
