Before we went to DiGi Fu-Yoh! Street Blast last Saturday, we had an early dinner at Dong Feng Po. It’s opened not long ago. Many people had went there before so we decided to try it out. It’s located behind EON Bank and DHL at Jalan Song Thian Cheok. By the way, Country Decastle already closed, no more in business, even signboard also gone.

Left: Dong Feng Po’s signboard.
Right: The interior. I think it’s very clean looking and with oriental touch.

Left: Some potted plants.
Right: Our drinks, Jasmine Milk Green Tea(RM2.50) and Passion Fruit Juice(RM2). The milk tea has nothing to be raved about and the passion fruit juice is just syrup.

By the way, I’m not so sure what are the exact name of the food, very long name -.-“

Left: Chopsticks & spoon and sweet & salted bean paste. Not bad. Very nice.
Right: Soup noodle in some kind of hot pot. You can choose to have tang-hoon instead of noodle. I opted for noodle. There’s one full egg in there and various “seafood” such as crabstick in there. No real seafood though. I got one meatball only in the soup 😛 and some veggies also. Becareful when you eat this, it’s very hot. The presentation reminded me of a type of Japanese noodle. This dish costs RM5.

Left: Spoon & folk and some sort of melon soup.
Right: I think this is called pork leg rice. The taste is OK but there were still a bit of pig hair still attached to the skin. This is also RM5

This place is not so bad. The price range is OK since it’s air-conditioned. Definitely will go there for second time if there is chance.

Familiar with this name? No? See the photo and I’m sure you will go OooOOooOoo… Hahaha… Well, only those growing up in the 80’s, 70’s, 60’s or earlier will be familiar with this. I’m not sure about those in the 90’s. Have any fond memory of it? Gossh… It reminds me that I’m no longer young anymore.

I don’t think you can see it here in the city anymore but you can definitely see them in small districts and towns. For those of you that have not much idea, do you know a drink called Sundrop? If you do, then this is the product that is produced by this company. It used to be a hit among us long time ago just like Coke or Pepsi. Then when more and more brands coming out, this is later forgotten. Due to that, the company produced a new drink called Sundrop.

I think this bottle must have gone tru’ all the thick of thin of your life and mine for quite a number of decades. The bottles were washed and reused. You need to return the bottle back to them and not throw them away. There were no plastic bottles last time and that time, everything was in glass bottle like this. During Chinese New Year, we used to have crates and crates of softdrinks in glass bottles, after finishing them, these bottles were sent back to where we bought it and they would return it to the factory to be washed and reused. I think the bottle you are seeing now it’s still the same old bottle that was used 20, 30 years ago. I don’t think they produce new bottles for it. Everything is exactly the same. See how things that were produced decades ago can last this long?

It still has the wordings stated “The Amoy Canning Corp. (M). BHD.” on one side. The company no longer use this name. Then another side is “Licensed By Green Spot Co. U.S.A”, does this company still exists in the US? Need to Google about it.

There is no Malay name for the drink. You can only see English, Chinese and Tamil. There were no such law about printing details of all those things you see in bottles nowadays.

Talking about this, remember Fanta? I always like Fanta green hehehe… Now if you ask me to drink these beverages, I won’t dare to drink much, maybe a sip or two but I didn’t drink the one in the photo. I wanted to drink but couldn’t get myself to drink it. I even don’t drink F&N Orange, Groovy Grape etc. Nice to see, very colourful but not nice to drink. The colours are freaking me out.

Do you feel old now? Hahaha… It does bring back a lot of memories. Very nostalgic.

Before I did some shopping and watch the roadshow last Friday, we had lunch at Hong Kong Noodle House again… Couldn’t decide where to eat and ended up there.

Left: Can you spot the “B”? The orange colour really complements the red colour of the interior. Now I know why they got a “B”. Guess what I saw? A baby cockroach behind my chair. Luckily I’m not afraid of cockroach so I just used the order slip to swept it down the floor.
Right: You get soups when you order rice dish.

Left: Lemon Fried Chicken Rice(RM4), too much lemon sauce! I ate till I almost threw up. Couldn’t stand it. The chicken were tasteless.
Right: Salted Fish Fried Rice(RM4), they were too stingy with their salted fish. It’s just like eating normal fried rice.

They do charge 5% government tax but there is no service tax. You are welcome to give them tips by putting the tips into the box that is provided.

WAH! Finally I had satisfied my craving last night! I know it’s crazy to eat this during the hot spell attack in Kuching lately but I’m glad that I made it on the Friday night which the whole day was wet and cool. Phew… If not, you go figure how are we going to survive? 😛 Too bad the rest couldn’t join us, it’s so hard to find such a nice day like yesterday to have it. We were so afraid that it’s not longer in operation anymore but lucky lucky… They are still in operation! YES!

Had it the first time in December last year. We spent RM56 for the 5 of us last night. This price exclude drinks. By the way, it’s not buffet style. You have to order your ingredients one by one.

Left: The base will cost you RM10. It’s divided into section, the non-spicy and spicy sections. You can choose the level of spiciness. We opt for the lowest level. Hehehe… At first we were thinking to order medium spicy but at the end decided to get the lowest one because we’re not sure about the rest whether they want it very spicy or less spicy since we reached there first. So if later they want it more spicy, we can just ask them to add more chillies! 😛 Then Ann came and I think she accidentally got choked by the spicy base hehehe… Poor girl yet her drink hadn’t arrived. So we settled with this level of spiciness.

Right: The sauce for you to dip your food. I’m not sure what it’s made of but can taste very strong garlic smell and a bit like satay sauce but it’s not stay sauce.

Here’s the tip to eat this:

– DO NOT dump everything in especially the meats into the steamboat, it’s not meant for you to do that, it’s for you to “shabu-shabu”, that’s why the meat are all thinly sliced. If you dump all your meats in, they are going to be very salty and not nice anymore.
– You can dump your fishballs and veggies(those thick type like cabbage) in though.
– As for tofu, don’t let it stay in there too long.

Left: Chicken meat.
Right: Beef. Wow! It tasted so good! This is the best meat to have with this “ma la” steamboat.

Left: Pork.
Right: Singapore fishballs. Huge! I had one only hehe… Ann got the last one and I just realised they were gone so she gave me hers since I didn’t eat any.

Left: Needle mushroom.
Right: Tofu.

Left: I don’t know what this is called. Chinese cabbage? The one u usually see in the market when almost Chinese New Year.
Middle: Cabbage.
Right: A type of fungus. Not sure what its name.

This place is really recommended for those that like spicy food. The location is hmmm… At Tabuan Laru, same row as AmBank. If you are facing AmBank, the direction is to your right. Great weather, great dinner!

I’m supposed to be going to eat Sarawak Laksa today then last minute decided to go to RH Plaza because we seldom go there. We walked walked walked and found a place for lunch. There are so many eateries in this area, from kopitiams to restaurants. We decided to try out this place, Del’s Kitchen, seems quite new. It’s at the same row as Taipei 101.

Left: Menu. They have local food to western food, quite a lot of varieties. The local food is a bit pricey compare to the western food. I mean the western food pricings are higher than the local food but it’s consider quite an average pricing compare to local food which is a bit higher than average.
Right: When you go in, your first impression would be, “WOW! So white!” *LOL* It’s air-conditioned! It’s not a very big place but they have 2 small air-cons and 2 big air-cons. Another WOW! 😛 We later found out from their namecard that they are not only occupying the ground floor but the upstairs too.

Their food presentations are quite nice.

Left: Laksa Nyonya(RM5.50), kinda tasteless, a lot of santan though. It’s not spicy, very mild.
Right: Nasi Goreng Paprik(RM5.90), just plain rice with stir fried meat and veggies in black pepper sauce. Only few pieces of meat only, very small pieces summore.

Our drinks. I would say that the drinks are a bit too pricey.

Left: Fruity Punch(RM4.80). I’m expecting it came with a tall glass but it came in this small glass. Nothing much… It’s just mixing two types of syrups. Very sweet! At least it’s too sweet for my liking.
Right: Margarita – non alcoholic(RM5.80). Very nice right? Couldn’t help it and kept on taking pictures of it *LOL* It’s so SOUR! I’m not kidding you, it’s very very very very very… SOUR! First drink, you can taste a hint of flavour like what you get in ENO. The the more you drink, GOODNESS GRACIOUS! SO SOUR! You remember when we’re young, there’s this kind of sweet where it’s very sour in the beginning and after sucking it for sometimes, it’s not sour anymore? Yea…. It’s that kind of sour but with no sweetness at the end. So imagine you need to drink this glass of Margarita, it’s very small glass but but it’s very hard to finish! However, nice presentation.

In the menu, it stated that they charge 5% service tax but when we settled our bill, there’s no tax at all. Hmmm… I’m not sure to recommend this place or not, I like the environment. *SHRUG*

OMG… I’m almost broke already this month -.-” Spent too much on eating out lately. Next Friday spicy steamboat summore and need to find time to go sing Karaoke at Popwave hahaha… I still have many things that I want to eat but… Not much money left 🙁
