Restoran Tong // 东肉骨茶馆

Hainanese Eight treasures


A brand new beginning to 2012, Top on my eating list, Restoran Tong. But not for its Bak 


ku teh, but rather a lesser known dish..Hainanese Eight treasures. Not many people are 


aware of this particular dish..even the regulars, is because it only available on weekends and 


public holidays..

So what is so special about this dish? well it tasted a but like nonya chap chye, as well as 


poon choy. But its that kind of dish that will grow on you...u might not find it spectacular at 


first..but after having it..I crave for it ...

There are certain rules in this place as well.

1) Don't feed the stray dogs

2) No top up in soup

3) Pay at counter after meal.

4) Take aways for left over food is charge at 50 cents a packet.

5) Do not order steam fish if u are in a hurry.

verdict:

Food: 4/5

Ambiance: 1/5

Price: 52RM for half steam chicken and Hainanese eight treasure

Overall: 4/5 Worth your calories!!

海南八宝菜


新的一年,开始了我想吃已久的东肉骨茶。


有去过那里的食客,一定会知道那里实在难找。不过,我就喜欢这种非大众化的美食。

其实,东肉骨茶,最出名的,并非肉骨茶,而是他家的海南八宝菜。因为,只有在周末和假日



才有卖,所以,不是很多人知道。

那到底八宝菜是什么?其实,他的味道是好像nonya杂菜和盆菜的结合体。料方面有鱼鳔,豆



腐,腐竹,濡猪肉相当大份,可以吃两个人。

如果没吃过的人,可以去试试看。



墙壁有大字报,

1)请不要喂野狗


2)赶时间不要叫蒸鱼


3)吃不完打包,一包5毛


4)肉骨茶,不可以加汤

The Shop looks abandoned from exterior

The portion is pretty big ..for 2 person


Specially made chilli, tasted a bit sour and hot at the same time

Steam Kampung Chicken is another favorite dish here

Lots of "signages" here to "advise" customers the dos and don'ts

They will put up their rest days..it is 1 week from the day

Sang Heng Dried Noodles // 生 兴 茶餐室

One of the oldest teochew style noodle shops in town, another one would located just further down, I was told they are all related, selling the same style of noodles.

This shop, located besides OCBC stretch, does sells teochew braised duck as well. The place can get quite crowded and the Old man selling the noodles, will literately get into his own "zone" where he doesn't acknowledged your order...

That can get quite troublesome, as you have no idea if your food order has been taken note. But surprisingly, he remembers!!

Anyway, lets talk about the food then.

Since this is already such an established shop, there is no need for ratings.

Whats Good?
The soup, is rich and tasty, (not sure if there is MSG though) according to Eric Koh, their soup differs from the others that are being offered in JB, as they uses prawns as their primary broil, instead of the bones.

Each bowl, has a assortments of ingredients which is shown in the pictures, consisting of prawns, pork, fish balls, pork balls etc. the lard, is another killer...really crispy and melts in your mouth...

Whats Bad?
The portion of each noodle at 5RM is reallllllyyyy small...a bit like He Cheng Ji wanton mee, please order big portion if u are hungry..next, the hygiene is really bad..the boss collects money and cook noodles, without washing hands of course...definitely not for the weak stomach...hahahaha

再去一家坡底的老字号, 听eric 说,这家的汤底是用虾来熬。



赞:面的配料丰富,有虾,肉丸,鱼丸。特制辣椒吃到我冒汗,哈哈。汤,很鲜甜。

弹: 5rm 不够吃,面有点少,老伯,有点"爱买,爱买"点菜时,也不做回应,不懂到底有没有听到,卫生方面有待加强,因为,老伯一手收钱,一手煮面。

En Ji Noodle Shop // 恩记面家

In JB, you could find Ho Cheng Ji style of noodles almost everywhere. However, En Ji noodle is a stark difference from that offering. Firstly, they use egg noodles, the texture of their noodles is thicker and more slightly more chewy. 
From the articles on the wall, it was said that they are actually a branch that originates from An Shun northen part of Malaysia, but the style is Cantonese. The shop actually does more noodle distribution instead of walk-in business.
This is the 2nd visit to the shop for me, that's why i tried their roast duck noodles instead of wanton noodles.
Personal Verdict
Food 4/5
The main part of the dinning experiences comes with the noodles..for the first time, i feel i could finish the whole bowl of noodles without any side ingredients..seasoned with just black soya sauce,  each mouth is indeed heavenly!
The fried wanton is another one of my favorite..their skin is fired to crispy perfection...can't stop at one....
Pricing 3/5 4.50rm for small bowl
Overall 4/5 worth your calories

恩记面家,广东式云吞面。
在jb,到处都看到何成记式的面,恩记,的全旦面,变成独立风格的面家。
创于1965年,从安顺传到Jb,面家除了门面生意,也做批发。
由于,这是我第二次吃,我点了烧鸭面,炸云吞。

和何成记面不同到是,面的口感比较弹牙,也比较厚,调味方面只有黑酱油,没放辣椒,吃了有种口齿留香的feel。让人想再来一碗。鸭肉方面,中规中矩,感觉象配角。
炸云吞,皮炸得非常酥脆,让我欲罢不能,一口气吃完。


价钱:3.5/54rm 面,4rm 炸云吞。


整体:4/5 值得试!

美味香--Perling咖哩面。






我发现,蛮多人都把卡哩面和laksa混为一谈。我觉得两者主要分别在于咖哩的浓度与laksa叶。Perling的,绝对是咖哩面的代表。
在此感谢mr.chia,的指引有关新山道路让我今天获益良多。


说说食物吧!

Taman Perling Curry Noodles

In Jb, curry noodles is often also called laksa..it tends to be quite confusing especially, in Singapore, both noodles are in fact very different in terms of taste and texture of the curry.

This particular shop, is an stall that have moved from a stall...residents of Taman Perling, often refers this as 


the Perling Curry noodles stall..

If you happen to be around Skudai area, this is the place for breakfast, the rich curry will not disappoint you. 

For a mere 5RM , you get generous portions of chicken meat and potatoes...

Here is my verdict of this famous shop!!

Restoran Al Barakath




Well, Sharing is caring, had too much chinese food to date..and started to have a craving for mee rebus..As i'm handicapped with Malay languge, I often have difficulty getting around in JB to try these awesome Malay food. 
Speaking of Malay food in JB, do not miss their Stulang Style Mee rebus.. it was touted the best in Malaysia..hmmm not too sure about that. 
This shop featured is related to the Stulang Mee Rebus.. as the receipe is only shared within their family..
So whats so special about this mee rebus..firstly, its not as sweet as most u find elsewhere..it has a very thick gravy, of peanut and potatoes in it, sprinkled with generous fritters. Yummy!!

Verdict?
food: 4/5 
Environment: 2.5/5 clean
Ricing 4 rm normal, 5 rm big
Overall:  4/5 worth your calories!

希望各位高手可分享一些马来美食给小弟。

Ba Li Ban Duck Meat // 八哩半












This Ba li Ban, is one of the oldest Duck meat stall u can find in JB.. besides the Skudai Duck and the one 


opposite it. i have been regularly patronizing this shop for the past 1 year, as i enjoyed the way the duck is 


cooked, meat is consistently tender and juicy.. the Dou Ki is also one of my favourite..So if u happen to drive


 to Sutera Mall for shopping, do spend some time to eat here.. the Kampung environment will make u come 


back for more!!

明天,我终于可以下个结论。 到底新山,最好吃的鸭在那里??
为了让我能更记得八哩半的味道,小弟我特意在昨天吃一回,以便更容易分出胜负。

以下是个人口味评分

食物:4/5 , 鸭肉够嫩,肥瘦适中。较清淡口味, 胜在鸭肉入味

环境:4/5 在kampung, 树下吃饭,令人有忘记慢下脚步,慢慢品尝美食的功用。


价钱:3/5 两人份鸭+tou ki+水=20+ rm 不算便宜。中等价格。

Rojak Stall at Taman Pelangi (Missing!!)





This humble motocycle rojak stall, is one of the most popular local rojak in this area. different from Penang 


Rojak, this does not contains fruits. The key ingredient is the indonesian prawn cracker, is a must as it brings 


out the flavor.Try it..you will love it!!

Food:4/5

很focus 的Rojak uncle


相信住在Pelangi一代的居民,都不会对这位Rojak uncle感到陌生。驾这一辆motor做生意。


当他在炒Rojak, 时的那种专注力令人佩服。当然,值得一提的是他所加入的


虾饼,让rojak的味道更香,口感更好。

Ah Soon bak Ku Teh // 阿顺肉骨茶



麻油鸡(4/5)真的很赞!麻油滋淋饭,肉煮得恰恰好处。嫩度适中!






肉骨茶(3/5)汤头很甜,可惜肉骨煮过熟,有点硬。

Ah Soon Bak Ku Teh is like the Singaporean Endorsed Bak ku teh shop. Located at Sri Tebrau, this shop can get very hot, and crowded..as they serves their dishes in claypot style. I happened to visit this shop like 4 times, and the inconsistent soup base has made me think twice..However, one of my JB forum friend insist I give it another shot...so here I am again!
To make things clear, he said, to enhance the flavour of the soup base, u need to add two other ingredients even if u don't eat them..the Fatty pork, and pig liver. 
Boy he was right ! this is one of the best soup base since I had it in a while..of course all these special arrangements is because he knows the owners for well over 20 years.
But all in all, what I really love was his Claypot Sesame chicken. the chicken is cook to perfection, not overcook, meat is fresh and tender.. plus the gravy..yummy..give me a bowl of rice..I'm a happy man!
Food: 3.5/5
Environment: 2/5 its hot inside!
Price: ?? estimate at least 60 to 70 ++ rm
Overall: 3.5/5 good stuff especially the chicken!!

麻油鸡,喧宾夺主!
首先,要感谢Dino Chong 老板, 请客。让小弟第四次吃到阿顺肉骨茶。


由于,Dino, 认识老板一家人多年,所以有点特别待遇。哈哈。


这次,的确和前几次吃的有所出入。


1)肉骨茶加入了三辰肉,猪肝,一起烹调。让汤头更为鲜甜。
2)店家只用排骨,没肉骨。
3)麻油鸡,里放入的部分,都选择较多肉的部分,不象前几次,骨多过肉。


就如Dino所言,美食评语要求中立。以下乃个人评语。

食物:3.5/5---


肉骨茶(3/5)汤头很甜,可惜肉骨煮过熟,有点硬。


麻油鸡(4/5)真的很赞!麻油滋淋饭,肉煮得恰恰好处。嫩度适中!


环境:2/5 有点热。


价钱:?? 不详 要问dino. 不过我估计至少60rm,因为分量太多了,可以吃四个人


整体:3.5/5 值得试。特别是麻油鸡!
