Restoran Fatty Mok HakkaYong Tau Foo 肥佬莫客家酿豆腐

My sister and brother are going back today and we decided to eat at my father's favourite restaurant ie Fatty Mok Hakka Yong Tau Foo in Salak South Garden, near the morning market place.

The restaurant is divided into two section ie. one with air-cond and one without air-cond. We went to the air-cond section as the weather was very hot.


Pictures of the boss taken with TVB stars pasted on the wall.


The clear and simple menu with pictures and price.

Here are our food, of course Yong Tau Foo. As there is one very tasty yong tau foo stall near my work place, I find this one to be just average. The soup is tasty and not so much MSG added.

Our favourites , Fried stuffed Brinjal and Crispy Fried Dumpling. Both are tasty and very nice.

This is the main reason we come here for : the Pork innards porridge. This is really good. The porridge is smooth and not too thick or watery, just nice.
We order extra fried pig intestines for our porridge which I think quite unnecessary as the original bowl of porridge come with quite generous amount of it.
But out of kiasu, I add some to my porridge......hehehe.
Besides the yong tau foo and porridge, they have 'Hakka Cha Yuk' , Curry laksa, Clear Soup Noodles, Curry ribs, Chicken Rice and Kan Lo Mian. The price is reasonable and the place is quite clean.

Ming Huang Court - 明煌馆

We were looking for a cosy place to eat and chat and I remember my friend Tan brought us here once. This place is in Metro Prima Kepong. If you are coming from KL Jinjang, pass The Carrefour traffic light , turn right at the second traffic in front of the Petronas, go straight and turn left after the TNB substation, this restaurant is on your left among the shophouses.

This is the menu, all the food and drink are clearly listed.
The interior of the restaurant:Our food: Shanghai special fried bean sheet 三素炒面皮, it tasted like Hokkien Fried Tapioca but less oily and the bean sheet is very QQ.


Steam Glutinous Duck Rice with Dried Scallop (RM4.80). This is very yummy (很入味).




This is Shanghai Xiao Loong Pau (RM6.00), served with shredded ginger in vinegar. The soup in the pau is delicious and the meat is not very fat, just mixed with enough of lean meat to make it perfect.
Steamed salted egg sauce bun (流金入口包)RM3.60, this is the first time I eat this kind of pao, very unusual filling, a bit salty sweet and the pao pastry is not the sticky type.
This Seafood Siu Mai taste average only.



But this Steamed Egg Custard is very good. Unlike some egg custard, they will mix with flour to make it smooth but this one is without flour and yet so smooth and full of aroma of milk and egg. They sure have kungfu to steam such a smooth egg custard.
Other Tong Sui:
Deep fried red bean bananas is special and very yummy. The bananas are just ripe and sweet and filled with red bean paste. And the bananas remain cold inside! How did the chef do it?My siblings and Mom had a very good time here. The place is cosy and the little dim sum served here are all delicious and the price is reasonable.



The restaurant address : No.12, Jalan Metro Perdana Barat 3, Taman Usahawan Kepong, Kepong Utara, 52100KL. Tel : 03-62587996.

Checkers - Damansara Heights

When my brother and sisters come back to Malaysia, they will try out as much local food as possible as they could not find good and tasty local food in overseas. But last night we went to Checkers, a restaurant serve pizza, pasta, porky dishes and some tex-mex food.

Upon recommendation of the owner, we ordered this dish called Enchiladas(RM29), very cheesy and a little spicy and we shared it among five of us. I think it will be too filling and rich for one person to eat the whole plate.


We shared this aglio olio with garlic oil. This is very good. My son can eat the whole plate but we adults want to reserve our stomach space for other dishes.
This is the star of the restaurant Lord Of The Ribs (RM88). It comes with a bed of fresh salad, chickpea and tomatoes and mashed potatoes. The salad dressing is very appetising, a bit tangy and spicy. The portion is big enough for 4-5 persons.
The sauce for the LOTR, bbq sauce and garlic sauce. It is really finger licking good.


My Dad ordered grilled sea bass(RM72). The sea bass was really fresh and tasty.
We had grilled calamari(RM8.50) which was very tasty and fresh. Checkers has other dishes like Scampi ( prawn dish), pizza, pork knuckles, french loaf served with garlic oil but we did not order because we came here mainly for the LOTR. We finished off our meals with their to die for dessert @ Rum and Chendol(RM11), which I forgot to snap photo of it (too excited to eat!). If not for the calories, I think I could finish the whole serving of the dessert instead of sharing with my siblings.

Checkers is located at : 19, Lorong SetiaBistari, Damansara Heights, 50490 KL. Tel : 03-20953304, open from 6.00pm - 10.00pm and closed on Monday. If you are coming from Bangsar, turn into second left turn after the petrol station and go straight and turn into second left turn again. Pass the Good Shepherd Nursery and go straight till you see a row of two storey shoplots., Checkers is there in the middle.
