Visited Meatology in TTDI after we brought our dog for a long walk in DesaPark City. We were starving and there’s no way for us to head back home first to drop our dog and go out again for dinner. So we Googled for pet friendly restaurant and found that Meatology in TTDI is a pet friendly restaurant and bar that actually allows your pet to sit with you inside the restaurant!

Service here is good i would say. My dog was also starving and I brought her kibbles but not her bowl :( I asked the staff if they could lend me some bowl to feed my dog and they happily lend me one :) Our dog were also allowed to sit on a high bar chair, for us to be able to eat with a peaceful mind.

We ordered their snacks called Poisson Pork, basically is caramelized, deep fried siew yok and garlic served with pork skin. This dish is the bomb I would say (although the picture doesn’t tell you so). Crunchy, roasty flavour and the fragrance of fried garlic cloves. For our mains we ordered fish and chip, and carbonara pasta. The carbonara was nothing to shout about, whereby the fish and chip was kinda disappointing. My boyfriend ordered that and found that the deep fried fish were still smelling fishy, an indication that the fish is not fresh. We called the staff to notify them and offered to replace the dish. We got our new batch of fish and chip which taste slightly better (and no more fishy smell), but I would say the taste is still not that great.

Overall: Most probably won’t come back here anymore although they are one of pet friendly restaurant in town :(

Went here for a group lunch before our assignment discussion meet up with my friends. We’re looking for a good lunch spot that is close by in Subang area, so here we are! Located in SS15 Courtyard, just right next Naj and Belle. I ordered their Smoked Salmon Pasta (RM32.90), it’s a quite pricey dish but it didn’t disappoint me. Plated nicely in a big ceramic plate, served with cherry tomatoes and asparagus. I kinda like how they prepare the asparagus, it tasted firm but not too ‘woody’ and slightly salted. The cream taste with like a mixture between salty, little creamy, tangy and sweet at the same time, definitely not a pasta that will make you “jelak” ;D

Little did I know they serves good pasta dish, definitely will come back and try out their other dishes and desserts!

Simple yet satisfying lunch :) Located at the rooftop level of Metro Hotel in KL Sentral, this simple outdoor cafe could be your next chill out spot. The menu itself is nothing to shout about, they serves ala cart meal and lunch set for only RM10.90 (food + drink) from Monday to Sunday until 3 pm.

We decided to order their salted fish fried rice set meal that came with one piece of fried chicken and ice lemon tea, and the fettuccine carbonara set meal (RM10.90 each). Fried rice was good, they cook it in very Chinese style, except that the fried chicken was too dry to my liking. Fettuccine carbonara is nothing to shout about, but i can tell you that it's not a plate of carbonara that will make you feel "jelak", the sauce that they use tasted more of like mushroom soup rather than the creamy carbonara sauce too me, maybe that's why it's not so "jelak-ing" 😂

We had a long chat after our meal because the place is just less crowded and cosy :) if you're working somewhere in KL Sentral and always have to compete for seat during lunch time in NU Sentral, go check this place out! Could be your next hideout spot for lunch!

Went here for Mother's Day celebration and we had a great dinner night together. They are popular for their sliced duck dish which is served with jellyfish, they have Saturday & Sunday promotion price for this dish which is only RM20 (normal price RM35). The sliced duck dish is our favourite for the night! Must order!

Other than that, the Pumpkin Tofu (RM20++/ 5 pcs) is also worth to mention. Tofu size is quite huge, the pumpkin gravy is sweet and thick, accompanied with bits of pumpkin seeds that give out nutty taste to the dish.

We also tried their Wonton Chicken (not in picture), basically is herbal whole chicken served in a humongous clay pot (is meant for sharing!) and cut into pieces right infront of your face. The herbal soup is winey and sweet tasting due to the goji berry added. They'll serve a portion of fried wonton in which you are supposed to eat with the herbal soup, it's really goood!!

This place is just right next to Wisma MABA, make sure you make a booking first before coming!!

Most Subang-ites must have feel very familiar with F4 Fish Head Restaurant. Located deep inside the hidden industrial area in Jalan Subang, this amazing restaurant basically turned factory lots into a crib where we can enjoy amazing local chinese food with our family. Needless to say, the fish head is an attraction so we ordered 3 of their recommended dishes : Curry Fish Head dish (RM23), Pumpkin Tofu (RM12) and Stir Fried Fan Shu Miao (Sweet Potato Leaves) (RM 12).

Their fish head curry is totally up on my recommendation list! Those smooth, tender fish head meat with mild curry spice, accompanied with generous servings of okra, long beans and tofu skin, I would say it’s a great accompaniment to a plate of warm rice :slightly_smiling_face:

Another dish worth to mention is the pumpkin tofu.. it’s super goood!! Soft tofu fried with perfection, poured with sweet pumpkin gravy, oh my… In general their food is reasonably good with reasonable price too. F4 restaurant is definitely a hidden gem, will definitely come back!

Just be warned that the restaurant is usually super crowded especially during weekend dinner time..

Usually Lian Heng Pan Mee is always my go to spot whenever I’m craving for a bowl of comforting pan mee. Unfortunately, I was craving for it yesterday and Lian Heng Pan Mee was closed for public holiday :disappointed: After minutes of some Googling work, I found this humble pan mee restaurant in Aman Suria, so I head there right away…

Cha Cha Original Pan Mee is a family run restaurant that serves really good panmee that get very much underrated I would say! I ordered their Original Pan Mee (RM9/big bowl plus egg), they offer 3 different noodle types: pinch, flat and thin noodle. I am very particular with the noodle type and I would say a proper bowl of pan mee should be served with pinched noodle. The noodle is silky smooth with perfect texture and consistency, slippery but not too soft nor too hard like uncooked dough. The soup is really the bomb, to be honest I can’t really tell the goodness difference between theirs and Lian Heng’s one, okay they might have different soup taste but both taste super good! They serve the pan mee with other condiments such as toufu skin and pork balls, I just can’t.. I gulped down the whole bowl of satisfying pan mee and I’m totally sold off!!

Overall: I will definitely come back here! Well, it’s kinda far from my place, but it’s worth it! :smile:

Swing by to Ground Hog (TTDI) if you feels like having a porky day! This restaurant is relatively new in the block, thus I decided to give it a try. Step in and enjoy the cosy, modern half-restaurant half-bar kinda of atmosphere that will spoil you with all sorts of drool-worthy pork dishes :9 The staffs are very friendly and helpful btw!

There’s so much going on in the menu, starting from salad, bread, pasta to pork chop. I decided to give their Hog’s Chop (RM29) a try. Approximately weighing 500 gram of premium slab pork chop pan roasted with herbs and black pepper, placed on top of smooth puréed potato infused with milky + buttery goodness. The dish is perfected with healthy serving of freshly made red cabbage slaw, yumms!! I heard that usually they’ll use apple purée to replace the potato purée, unfortunately today they ran out of the apple purée. However, in my honest opinion, they shouldn’t take out the potato purée completely because it’s really good! Maybe they should serve both potato purée and apple purée to give the combo of both salty, tangy and sweet tastes.

For the drink, I decided to give their “fancy drinks” a try. It’s basically their house collection of non-alcoholic drinks. I ordered the Cranberry Citrus (RM10), the pink coloured drink came in a tall glass topped crushed mint leaves. It’s very refreshing in general but I can’t really taste the cranberry, it’s more of like a glass of orange juice taste in my opinion… The staff told me that they are also famous for Lemon Lime Bitters (RM10), but unfortunately they are running out of Angostura bitters today 😞

I came here because I was craving for Korean Fried Glass Noodle (Jap Chae), flipped the menu and was drawn to try out their BBQ menu too 😂

Mi Na Rae is located at the busy street of Sri Petaling (level 2). If you happen to come here, definitely order their BBQ thin pork belly (RM23). The serving is just nice for 2 person, the BBQ pork is super awesome I tell you.. perfectly sliced in perfect thickness, not too thin nor too thick, those strips of juiceyy pork slices 😌 You don't have to cook by yourself for this dish because they've already cooked for you (yay point for not having your hair and clothes smelling like BBQ pit).

Japchae (RM30) in here is served in big portion, definitely for sharing. The taste is nothing to shout about, but those chewy fried glass noodle they served has successfully satisfied my craving 🙌🏻

If you crave for Korean warm soupy stuff but feel like giving your tongue a minimal kick of spiciness, can give the DwenJang Jjike (RM16) a try. It's basically a non-spicy bean paste soup with tofu that is served with a bowl of rice. It tastes like Japanese miso soup, but it's not lol. So far I never had this before in Korean restaurant, now I've tasted it and I like it! Perfect for rainy days comfort food i think. I would prefer to have my bowl of rice flooded with soup and slurp it together with the tofu immersed in the soupy goodness 😆

This Italian restaurant in Puchong often get underrated, but actually it's a quite good Italian restaurant where you can even have a romantic casual dinner date 😌 The whole restaurant is decorated in Western-vintage-romantic style with lots of paintings, very much peaceful that you can enjoy your solo dining or enjoy the quality time with your loved ones.

Menu wise it's nothing much different from any other Italian restaurant, except a dish called Mozzarella In Carozza (under salad & appetizer section, RM 11.9). Basically it's just a simple dish of deep fried breaded mozza cheese drenched in Pizza Lola sauce. One serving contains 2 pieces of breaded mozza, and the sauce was just amazing! Tangy and sweet... I thought I would just to eat it for appetizer but since it was sooo good, i finished everything and it was super filling (tip: you can order this as your main course too i guess!). I've never eaten this dish before and i would say it's a must try in here.

Their Fusilli ala Carbonara (RM18.9) is nothing to shout about. Very creamy and a little bit sweet, can't manage to finish this dish as it gives you the "jelak" feeling right after you done with half of the portion (no kidding 😞), although they said it's their popular pasta dish... If you're craving for pizza, you can try their house special Little Italy Pizza (RM26.9, 12 inches). Thin crust pizza topped with roasted chicken, turkey ham, mushroom and (unshelled) prawns. Overall the pizza dough is good, crusty and taste abit like biscuit 😂 but the toppings they offered are just mainstream, nothing to shout about (p.s the lazy part is to peel off the prawn skin 😐)

Overall: price wise is quite affordable for a decent portion. Nice ambience. Is a good place to give it a try, but may not come back for their pasta...

Healthy food with a little twist! Who said that healthy food must always be salad? 😏 Located at the quiet Damansara City Mall (Level 1), most of people will just skip the quiet upper floor and settle for brunch spot in LG floor... but I tell you what, this is a real hidden gem! Decorated in mostly white themed interiors with lots of hanging plants on top and swing chairs, makes it a cosy hang out spot after meal. While waiting for your food to be served (it doesn't take too long), you could have Jenga or Uno session with your friends, or zone out yourself with some magazines located at the counter :)

They have unique choices of healthy food that are combined with a little twist of fusion food. You can basically choose your favourite grains that range from brown rice, 10 grain rice, quinoa with pearled barley and couscous. Then they have 2 different serving portion "micro" and "macro". When dilemma strikes, the owner are more than happy to suggest their best selling dishes to you.

We ended up ordering Moroccan Lamb Tagine with brown rice (RM25). It was a really special dish I would say. Lamb Tagine is basically taste like Malay Beef Rendang, the twist is the addition of pomegranate, dried cranberry and dried apricot. Pomegranate gives you the burst of sour taste, whereby the cranberry and apricot give out the sweet flavour hint to the dish. Combined with the "rendang" taste and chickpeas, it leaves you with the perfect combination of all sweet, sour, salty and umami taste. However I think they could work on to give more dried cranberry and apricot (in my preference) 😆

Their Korean Spiced Beef (RM22) is also one of their best dish and it's ain't your usual Korean bibimbap. Served with pickled carrot, cucumber and pan fried egg. We got this dish with quinoa and pearled barley, it was a good grain choice to be paired with this dish. The Spiced Beef is not spicy at all in my opinion and this dish has a quite strong sesame oil taste (it tastes abit ginger-ish to me at first, only to find out that it's actually sesame oil 😂).

If you order their lunch set, it'll come with complementary iced tea that is served in a glass jar and metal straw (yes, metal straw!) 😁

Overall: it's a good place to eat healthy food that is not boring. Price is also reasonably affordable 👍🏻

Payment term: cash (cash only for now) and credit card (in the future)

It's been a looong time since i savour on good brunch meal on lazy long weekend. And here i am, savouring on table full of good brunch! ❤️

The most popular dish in here is called One Pan Fix, you can see everyone is ordering at least one portion of it in every table. It's basically a large serving of egg with hasbrown chunks, greens, red and green peppers and sauteed mushroom. It's a real good comfort food for your hungry tummy because it definitely can fix your hunger pangs (pun intended)!

Another must try is their Pulled Duck and Egg. Duck meat tenderly pulled and braised with their special sauce, served on top of 2 slice of wheatgerm bread, topped with loads of hashbrown chunks and sauteed mushroom and baby spinach 😆 i gobbled down everything except the hashbrown as it's kinda oily to my liking :(

Try their Nutella hot chocolate too! It has thick Nutella taste that leaves you goes "mmmmhhh" but their green tea latte is nothing to shout about (good thing is that it's not sweet at all 😂)

Parking is relatively easy, the cafe atmosphere is nicely decorated (they apparently won an award for the best decorated cafe), they are children friendly and smoker friendly too :)

I was craving for a good Sarawak kolomee today. Then I remembered I passed by this restaurant before on the way to One City, hence I decided to give it a try 😆

I ordered their prawn kolomee and it lived up to my expectation, ain't disappointing at all! The noodle is with perfect consistency and not too dry (by the way they served a bowl of chicken soup separately). Please.. order their Chai Kuey too! It's super good beyond imagination (although it's abit oily, but nah! I'll definitely come back for the Chai Kuey again!). Dip those babies (4pcs per serving) in their special chili sauce, it's darn good I warned ya! (I even end up eating my kolomee with the Chai Kuey chili sauce 😂, the chili sauce is the bomb 💣)

Get their house specialty pineapple sour plum too! It tastes refreshingly different from any other sour plum drink you ever had. Inside they includes chunks of pineapple too! Good for digestion, yummms 👅

P.S. They also serves tong sui of the day (weekend only). Pay attention to the board near the cashier, they serves menu of the day that changes daily too :)
