Came across this recently opened place in skudai while getting my bike serviced by the skilled mechanics of Motormatic across the road

The Thai ice tea is really well done, sweet but not too sweet, service was prompt & friendly and the ambience was clean, welcoming

The kitchen staff were real Thai people and it showed in the food, there was also a real kick in their Tom yum soup, ask for less spice if you're not sure

My picture shows their Thai beef soup noodle, it's a dark broth style which I'm not as familiar with but very nicely balanced and welcome for a cold rainy evening such as today

It's become a place I regularly look forward for a stopover between Johor and KL

Depending on the dishes, around RM 15 - 30 per pax

A decent albeit unspectacular plate of wantan mee

Noodles are of the thin variety, could use abit more tossing

Sauce is little bit sweet and sticky, likewise for the char siew wantans were quite small

Medium plate including a drink costs around RM 10

Could be a convenient bite if you're passing by as they have some parking right in front

Amidst all the old hardware stores, Hung Kee looks every bit the part like it belongs there and a successful long time operations itself.

Char siew was very nicely balanced, it had both lean and fatty meat, encrusted with sweet chewy outer bits

The sauce was on the less heavy side with a hint of shrimp in it somehow and noodles were also quite springy.

But the real deal here is their wantans, super fresh and loaded with flavor, a sure delight as you bite into it

Approximately 8 to 11 RM including a drink

One thing good about Antipodean is that they definitely don't skimp on the portions.

This post breakfast Burmese Chicken Salad turned out to be quite delightful.
You get a generous pile of julienned white cabbage, topped with their shredded chicken (not overly tough), caramelized onion goodness and adorned with plum tomatoes on the side.

As you dig in, hidden inside are some spinach leaves and diced tomatoes, while the yellowish salad dressing oozes out.
I suspect it's some sort of satay marinade (not the peanut sauce)

The tangy dressing combined with the sweet caramelized onions and crunchy cabbage makes for a delightful and not too heavy combination.

Would order again!

Came to check out a bike shop at Taman Molek, but most shops were closed due to Malaysia day and chanced upon this dim sum eatery that was opened

Yam char siew pastry was good, outside was a nicely crisp but not fluffy and the char siew also decent, as evident again with their char siew bao

The siew mai was good too, fresh ingredients and packed well

Custard buns were freshly steamed but I was already feeling full and didn't feel like eating too heavy, so took that away

Including a sour plum drink, total damage about RM 23
Overall, quite enjoyable and a good choice if you're around the neighborhood but not something you would specifically travel long distances for

Pretty good, ordered the big portion and quite full now.
The noodles are thinner than your typical wantan noodles and there's not a lot of gravy but the sauce coated quite well and evenly.

Quite oily, char siew was nicely caramelized with decent amount of fats, you can choose the type of meat you like.

Certainly worth a shot to come check them out, very reasonable prices
Large bowl of wantan mee RM 6.80
Soya bean drink RM 3.00

Succumbed to the Char-acteristic smoky, caramelised texture replete with old world Char-m of wood-roasted meats. This signature Char Siew was indeed off the Char-ts with its melt-in-the mouth texture and its gooey thick Char Siew sauce. The best part came when this piece of Char Siew was Char-ged to the boy's credit card 😁

My rule of thumb is that if there is a queue forming even before the store opens, you can expect the food to be decently good (at times) and I was not disappointed with my Tendon at Ginza Tendon Itsuki and that includes the whole dinning experience. Sitting at the counter, I was so excited by the sight of the Tendon being assembled in those elegant Arita porcelain bowls and just all the smells.

At $13.90++ a bowl of Special Tendon comes with an awesome tempura egg hidden under two pieces of tempura chicken breast, two prawns, and a mixture of deep fried vegetables (mushroom, melon, baby corn and french beans) piled high above a bed of rice. Each set also came with a serving of chawanmushi and miso soup. A satisfying bowl of Tendon, I really liked how the batter was light, thin, not at all greasy and love the sweetness of the sauce as well as the crunchy vegetables. Definitely worth a second visit and the wait!
