Eating from Petaling Street - Semenyih - Putrajaya - MidValley - Jinjang - Bangsar

This is my first post on FOOD and TRAVEL! So pls enjoy yourself.
The stars of my blog post are my family and my relative from Singapore.

PETALING STREET -It has been a long history on this street. Many tourists visits this street as part of their travel agenda. The govt has recognised that and decided to put a roof for the busy street with people. If you love branded goods but seem to be stingy (kedekut or Mr. Scrooge), you can get all the fake versions here in Petaling Street. It is not encourage as these are the markets that spoils a brand's reputation. On the bright side, once your brand has imitations, it means you are a HUGE brand! They have good from bags, watches, clothes, wallets, shoes and more. Brands from Gucci, Coach, Burberry, Louis Vuitton, Nike, Adidas and much much more. The street also has FOOD!

PETALING STREET (Rest Yook Woo Hin) - As you can see, not much photos on the food in this restaurant as I came late :(. However, I heard that the dim sum is quite good from my family. I only had the kuay teow soup which as a good starter for my Food Trip that day.
PETALING STREET - You see them pushing the blue cart? That is how they move their goods to their stores. The red wooden slippers are a real classic. Only RM5 i guess or maybe lesser. Souvenirs on Kuala Lumpur can also be bought here.

PETALING STREET - Before we continue our "Makan Trip", we visited one of Kuala Lumpur's OLDEST WET MARKET, "Penjaja Gallery Jalan Tun H.S. Lee". Even a wet market is a gallery so gotta take some photos to justify the name :p. Pls take note that the photos are not for the fainted heart. There are lots of meat like PORK, CHICKEN and FISHES on sale. Makes me wonder if there will be an eBay page selling PORK, CHICKEN and FISHES???? Can't forget the greens aka vegetables. If you see on the top right, there are people pushing their carts out from the market to their stores. Guess what branded goods are those?     GUCCI...haha. Now do you dare to buy from Petaling Street? Your bags actually lives among the PORK, CHICKEN and FISHES. I do condemn COPYCATS!

PETALING STREET (Air Mata Kuching) - Famous & sweet! Air Mata Kuching drink served in a Zoo cup..wth right? They had to use a Zoo cup for more awareness I guess. The drink cost a mere RM1-RM1.50. Worth a drink on a HOT day.
PETALING STREET (Chee Cheong Fun) - I couldn't find the name of this store. Anyhows, it is still on Petaling Street. Just RM4, you get a plate of handmade Chee Cheong Fun. The famous gravy is just soya sauce. It is that simple. If you still prefer the normal gravy, the sweet black sauce is also available.

PETALING STREET (Koon Kee Wan Tan Mee and Rice) - Do you like Char Siew (Sweet Roasted Fatty Pork) that melts in your mouth? Do you like Wan Tan Noodles that feels bouncy while eating them? Do you want all those to come cheap and authentic? If you answer all yes, come to this shop. The price is only around RM3-RM5 for a plate of Wan Tan Mee with Char Siew. You can also get the classic Ban Chang Ker outside the shop.

PETALING STREET (Biscuit corner) - There are plenty of biscuits, cookies, paus and breads here. So many variety till I did not highlight any except the one in the Red plastic Net biscuit. I can't remember what is that but it reminded me of my childhood! Those were the days....sigh...well, gotta move on!

PUTRAJAYA (Pink Mosque) - This is one of Malaysia's many mosque. The significant thing about this mosque is it is PINK in colour. Haha. It is also the detailed architectural design which makes this mosque a tourist spot in Malaysia. Entrance is free BUT tourist have to ensure they are properly dressed. Males have to wear long pants and a shirt/T-shirt to cover leg skin. For females, long dress to cover their legs too and ensure there are not cleavage for people to see in the mosque. Female also have to use a scarf to cover their head as a sign of respect to the religion of Islam.
As you can see, I am wearing shorts, so I didn't manage to enter the mosque. I hanged outside the mosque only. They have a food court there too, surprisingly!

Without wasting more time, we head for lunch at Semenyih.

SEMENYIH (Restaurant 52) -It is located in the kampung areas but GOOD food they have. Our lunch for 6 people only cost RM130. We had the Tai Thau Har (Big Ass Prawn Noodles). The prawn was cooked to perfection served in kuay teow and a delicious egg gravy. Next is the Guinness Pork Ribs. Yes, you have predicted well, the main ingredient is Guinness Stout Beer! The pork ribs were tender with the taste of sweetness with a little alcohol called Guinness Stout. Yummy!!!! As chinese, we had a Taufu Mix with carrot, cabbages, other small vegetables and some pork meat. All meals need some greens injected into our system so we ordered a Steamed Lettuce. Lastly, we had a Steamed White Meat Fish. I can't recall the fish type but the cooking style is unforgettable. The fish was steamed NOT with water but WITH OIL. It made the skin crispy while maintaining the soft juicy meat of the fish.

Next was desserts nearby.

SEMENYIH (Roadside dessert) -After a great meal, we needed to sweeten down the food. This roadside shop was perfect. We had Cendol, Ais Kacang and Fresh Coconut. As great eaters, we had to order the Carrot Cake there. It is cooked with bean sprout on a very small grill plate. The chef likes it small and simple I guess. All these for only RM15 or less.

MIDVALLEY, KL (Gardens Hotel and Residences) - We head back to where my Singapore relatives were staying. I highly recommend Gardens Residences if you plan to have a house party. For only RM900, you get a masterbed room, a big bathroom, a kitchen, a living room and a balcony. Big enough to fit at least 10-15 people for a party to get together. Plus, you can always go shopping downstairs at Gardens Mall or MidValley Mall.

Dinner Time!!!! :)

JINJANG (Hokkien Mee house-shop) - I again apologise for not disclosing the outlet location. Will do that when I get me iPhone 4! This shop was opened by my Grandfather's close friend. It is now run by the son. Everything here is cooked with a char-coaled stove. We started with the Hokkien Mee. Thick noodles cooked in a Hokkien style. Next, we had Hokkien Mihun and Flour Noodles. Same style of black sauce. Then, we had the Loh Mee. Just add some vinegar and it taste like heaven! This shop also specialised on their recipe of Fried Chicken Wings. Fried till it turns golden. While blogging this, I am already starving!

BANGSAR (Papa Rich Cafe) - We had to end the day by eating. Papa Rich was the choice for me as it was a place to hang out and chill. Mainly to relax all our stomach after a full day of MAKAN. This is the Eating crew of the day!

I hope to do this again. To my relative from Singapore, "Do come down again to experience another food travel journey".

Its dinner time for real right this moment!!! Till my next post......Seck Fun lor!!
