Fish Frenzy ★★ $$$$

Classic Kilpatrick Oyster @ $16 AUD (1/2 Dozen)

Tasmania is well known for their fresh seafood, especially oysters. To find out if its true, we came across this restaurant which was actually recommended by the info centre. Not knowing Hobart really well, we had no choice but to find out if its good as they say.

Sichuan House ★★ $$$

Spicy Cumin pork Ribs @ $21.80 AUD

This restaurant is within one of the alleys in China Town. The walkway is a little dodgy but many still come here for some Szechuan food. This place used to be my favourite place whenever I am looking for cheap and tasty Szechuan food. It was previously leased by Dainty Sichuan. However, Sichuan House has taken over and I'm here to find out whether its as good as the old one.

Namaste India ★★★★ $$

Hariyali Banno [Left] @ $3.95 AUD & Butter Naan [Right] @ $2.50 AUD (Each)

On a search for good Indian Food, I came to know of this restaurant which was highly recommended by my friend. This restaurant not only offers North & South Indian food but also Malaysian & Indo-Chinese food. If you are looking for good and cheap Indian food. This is definitely the place.

Carmelo's Wood Fired Pizza and Restaurant ★★★ $$$

Florentine Pizza @ $15.50 AUD (Large)

It is no big secret that Wood-fired pizzas are always better than pizzas cooked in conventional oven. This is due to the fact that wood-fired oven provides an environment where good pizza is made. In search for the best wood-fired pizza in Melbourne, we came to know of this restaurant and decided to give it a try.

Thursday 24 November 2011

Kake Di Hatti ★★ $$


Kake di Hatti has been around for quite some time and seem to be a local favourite for many years. This can be understood as they serve Northern Indian food at cheap prices. In comparison to Southern Indian Cuisine which uses oil and cream as a cooking base, Northern Indian Cuisine is a healthier choice as they use water instead. As a result, their curries are also less heavy in taste as well.

Red Spoon Korea ★★ $$

Ddeok-kkotchi @ $4 AUD

Red Spoon Korea is a small Korean cafe located just at Prahran which is run by a team of brother and sister. What is different about this restaurant is that it offers Korean food with a home cooking style touch to it. Not the usual Korean Food that you get around city.

Bone & Pot (有骨气) Steamboat Restaurant @ SS2 ★★★★ $$$

Signature Pork Bone Broth @ RM 15

You can never miss Bone & Pot whenever you pass by Kelana Jaya Station as it has a huge and brightly lighted sign board. The restaurant's Chinese name is rather catchy as it means "person with high integrity" which also represents their Special Pork Bone Broth (for less confusion, one of the Chinese characters has the word bone, hence comes the bone broth). Bone & Pot serves quality food so you will expect to see a lot of homemade dishes rather than ordinary seafood and frozen meats which is quite common in other steamboat restaurants.


Tuesday 1 November 2011

Special Roti Canai @ Al-Amnah ★★ $

Special Roti Canai @ RM 2.50

Roti Canai is a type of Indian-influenced flatbread found in Malaysia and has always been a local favourite. In this particular restaurant known as Al-Amnah, they came up with a variance to it and instinctively named it Roti Canai Special. Al-Amnah which is just opposite Restoran Noor shares the same shop and I came to know of this place by my uncle who loves to try new foods.

This particular open air stall is famous for their Kedah Asam Laksa but the main purpose my visit here was for their Mee Jawa.

My Elephant @ Section 17 ★★★★ $$$

Plah Nung Manow @ RM 45

Malaysia has numerous Thai restaurants and My Elephant is definitely one of the good ones. It is getting popular in Petaling Jaya as they have a 2nd branch which is located just at Hartamas. However, looking for this place was rather difficult, especially at night as we were surprised to find it just below the flats of Happy Mansion. There can be doubts for first timers as the surroundings are rather dodgy but the silly thing is that good food in Malaysia are normally in dodgy areas.

Sunday 11 September 2011

Vintry ★★★★ $$$

Caramelised Roast Pork @ RM 18

 Vintry has always been my favourite place when its comes to delicious meaty savoury food. Offering fusion foods which not only satisfy local taste buds but also something out of the ordinary. With Pork as the main ingredient for most of their dishes. It's a place you shouldn't miss out.

Ciao Italia ★★★★ $$$

Veronese Pizza @ $25.50 AUD

Ciao Italia was opened since 1999 and started off as a Take Away restaurant. Due to its huge success since the opening day, the owner decided to do dine-in and now they are capable of holding up to 90 people. Highly recommended by my friend as he was raving about how good their pasta was.
