Since the earlier post is a password protected post, means you got nothing to read today. Don’t worry, there’s still this post for you ;p

Are you wondering what’s the post is all about? Well… It’s just a letter that I have no guts to send out and cannot publish it openly here due to my reputation and also the supposed receiver’s reputation. I have no place to put it so I post it here with password. For the first time in my blogging years, I have a password protected post. I told myself before, what is the point to have a password protected post if you want to blog? I guess… I know why now.

If you want the password, I’m sorry but I won’t give it to anyone. Maybe one day when the time is right, I might release this post. Maybe I might not and let it dies with this blog. We’ll see how by then.

Anyway, back to the main topic.

It was my first time sitting inside Kluang Station, tHe Spring two Saturdays ago. I was only accompanying a friend. Didn’t order anything hehehe…

So let’s see what my friend had ordered:
Left: Cham(RM2.80), believe it, this is the first time I heard of this drink ;p if not mistaken it’s tea+coffee.
Right: Toast Bun(RM2.50), the inside is butter and kaya.

Seeing the prices on the menu, it’s pretty expensive for me but I heard the food here is good. *SHRUG*

Wonder when will I dine here? It’s not very likely though coz I don’t feel like paying such price to eat local food that I can get easily in other places with cheaper prices and also delicious too. Well… Maybe one day if I’m generous enough hahaha…

Star Chef, consider it a new place. Wanted to go since long time ago but no one wanted to go with me sigh…

Finally, went to have dinner with my friends on 1st May at Star Chef. Our initial plan was to have western food because Star Chef served western food but when we were there, they no longer have western food. They have new menu now and it got us all disappointed. It was so hard to make choices because of the price and the food type.

The location of the place is very easy to find. Just opposite Chung Hua Primary School No. 3. It’s along the main road. At night, this is the only place open and it’s the brightest shop among the row of shops.

The interior is brightly lit with bright colours.

The drinks, Local Coffee with Milk (RM1.70), Peppermint Tea(RM2) and Local Coffee ‘O’ with no sugar(RM1.70).

You will see why it’s hard to order the food and the price is really expensive. I should have replace the rice with fries, the rice is so little.

Left: Chicken meat (RM10), Japanese Teppanyaki Set with rice, vegetables and soup. The sauce for this was terriyaki sauce.
Right: Pork meat (RM10), Japanese Teppanyaki Set with rice, vegetables and soup. The sauce for this was black pepper sauce.

Left: Beef striploin(RM19.50), 200GM, Japanese Teppanyaki Set with rice, vegetables and soup. The sauce for this was black pepper sauce.

Basically you can choose to have terriyaki or black pepper sauce for your meat.

Right: The miso soup, so salty -.-”

So you see… With these food and price, I think charging RM10 is a bit too expensive. However the meat wasn’t too bad except the pork, very tough.

I heard they will be changing menu again maybe they will change it every few months. Currently they also have American breakfast.

Will I go back again? I don’t think so but maybe unless they change the menu again. I don’t like this menu.

Couldn’t believe that we(if I’m not mistaken, only 4 people eating) had all these food the other day at tHe Spring Food Bazaar for 2 hours. Should we consider it a record? All RICE! I’ve never eat so much rice and so many different style of food for food tasting. Thanks for the meal.

These are some of the food you can get from each stall in Food Bazaar:

Sushi – California maki
Sushi – Tempura prawn maki

Chicken rice – Steamed chicken rice
Chicken rice – Roasted chicken rice

Teppanyaki – Sukiyaki beef
Hotplate – Lamb slice with rice

Arabic – Arabic rice chicken curry
Japanese – Chicken teriyaki set

Foochow – Zhau Chai Bee Hoon
Ice Cream/Dessert – Extra special Taiwan red bean and Extra Special ABC

By the way, I don’t have the prices with me but you can be assure that the food there are reasonable with reasonable portion.

FULL! *BURP*

I’m sure many of you know that sarawakian.net is one of my blogs. It’s all about food. Frankly, I don’t remember when we started it, somewhere in 2007 I guess. Sarawakian.net is a place for us to keep track of eateries that we had dined in before and also to share some promotions that we come across from various sources.

Along the way, we managed to get some eateries to invite us for food tasting sessions also advertisers to support the operation and maintenance of sarawakian.net. It has gain popularity and visitors are increasing constantly over the years which is a good news for us.

We don’t really do review in there unless requested. We only show you some of the food that are available at the eateries.

Anyway, my main aim today is to invite you to join us in Facebook.

For those that had joined, thanks for joining and do invite your friends to join as we are planning something for our supporters in Facebook. Hopefully the plan will go well and can be executed soon.

Courtyard, quite a new eatery, opened somewhere last year end if I’m not mistaken. Not many people know about this place. Always wanted to go there since last year but no chance at all. Finally got the chance now.

Was supposed to have a bigger gathering there for ex-college mates but who knows at the end, ended up with only 4 of us as usual. Anyway, this place is located at Sarakraf Pavillion a.k.a Sarawak Arts & Crafts Heritage Centre. Parking was limited but now they have a space to accommodate more cars.

The place isn’t very big but not too small also. You can choose to sit indoor or outdoor. Prefer indoor as there’s air-con.

L-R: Ice Lemon Tea(RM2.50); Ice Blended Chocolate with Cream(RM7); I need help in this!! What kind of coffee already? Hahaha…; Vienna Hot Coffee(RM5).

The coffee are freshly brew, you will have to wait a bit longer for it but definitely worth the wait.

This place served Chinese-style food.

Left: Stewed Chicken with Sea Salt(RM12), this is a type of cold dish, something I don’t think you can get in many places. Taste wise? Just cold chicken meat to me but not the gross type, it’s something different, edible and definitely a must-try.

Right: Seasoned Egg-plant in steel-pot(RM8) but it’s served in clay pot. Not bad for this also. I don’t know how to explain how it tastes but it’s good. I like it.

Left: Lamb Chop Zhe Jiang Style (RM18), highly recommended from me. Yummy… The meat is so tender and don’t worry about having problem eating it with chopsticks.

Right: Plain rice, don’t remember the price. Just plain rice, what do you expect? ;p

Here’s the map so that you know how to go.

That night, Lee made a cake for 8 people but only 4 of us went. This cake is highly recommended from us, serious! Mousse Chocolate Cake, it’s so light and not too sweet and so much better than what you get from most bakeries.

I don’t know how much he’s selling though. One thing for sure, it’s GOOD! Those who are health conscious will think it’s good as sugar is reduced in this cake. If you are interested in ordering this cake, let me know ok? I’m sure he is happy to receive your order.

So… What we do with the rest of the cake? We split the cake into 3 and then I gave my portion to the management of Courtyard! 😛 Hehehe… Happened that an ex-schoolmate of mine was there so I gave it to her to try.

Place there is quite limited for the indoor section, you might want to make a reservation:
