Kuala Lumpur: Murni Discovery @ USJ 9 & Jin Xuan Dim Sum @ Puchong

Murni Discovery @ USJ 9

If you are looking for a mamak stall for dinner or supper, you might want to try out Murni Discovery. They serve Chinese, Western, Malay, Indian and Italian Cuisine. There are so many food choices which will make you have problem choosing. XD Murni Discovery has several branches and one of the famous one is in SS2. The one I went to try is at Taipan (USJ 9) as I feel that it is more spacious than the SS2 one. 

I ordered a cup of "Korean" (which is actually Nestum smoothie) (around RM5) and sis ordered a cup of Teh Tarik (RM2). OMG~ The portion is so huge! 2 bucks Teh Tarik for such a big glass! Surprising! The Nestum smoothie is nice too but a little too sweet. 

They have special drinks named "I love you", "I miss you", "Don't Worry", "Be Happy" etc.... Those are quite nice smoothies. You can try one if you come here. Even the name can make you smile. 

We ordered a roti and a naan as supper. Missing the Roti Hawaii a lot. They have so many types of roti canai available. Ranging from the very authentic roti canai, roti planta to Roti Jepun, Roti Beckham, etc... 
Roti Hawaii is served! 
Topped with mayo sauce, there are chicken, pineapple and sausages stuffed in the roti. This is my favourite roti *kiss*

Sis wanted to try cheese naan a lot and hence we ordered one. 
It is so huge and so cheesy. We have problem finishing it. 

Lesson learnt: Don't order so many food if you are not really really hungry as they are of big portion.

The next morning, we decided to have some dim sum as breakfast. So, we went to Puchong for Jin Xuan Dim Sum Restaurant, our favourite dim sum place. 

This place is easily located but parking is very hard to find. We waited 15 minutes for a parking spot.

Ordered mini polo buns (there's pineapple inside), egg tarts and crispy fishballs.

Kedah: Restoran Aminres

#throwback

First week in Kedah and I had problem looking for dinner place. I tried to find some restaurants using my waze but I failed to locate them. Sigh.... Randomly, I drove around the town and spotted a Nasi Kandar shop. As I was already starving that time, I decided to give it a try. Never try, never know. As a food explorer (konon-nya), I have to try as much as I could. 

And so, here I am -- trying out Nasi Lemak in Restoran Aminres.

It is quite a huge restaurant, not difficult to search.

I ordered Nasi Lemak and chose fried egg and chicken
(I think that's rendang chicken - not sure though)

Taiping: Hawker Center Roti Canai

Another breakfast choice in Taiping: Roti Canai. There's a few nice stalls in Taiping, but due to convenience, I always have mine in Hawker Center. 

Roti Canai is an Indian-influenced flatbread found in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. According to my friend who is studying in India, there isn't roti canai there, although they have naan, tosai, etc. In Malaysia, we have a variety of Roti Canai, which they mix with a lot of stuff, from fruits (banana, durian), to condensed milk (roti boom), to eggs (roti telur), to milo (roti milo), etc etc. You can find roti canai in all mamak stalls and it is a breakfast/supper choice in Malaysia.  

Usually they will serve roti canai with brown sugar, a chicken/mutton curry and dhal. For me, I like to eat it with dhal (which is always less spicy than curry), so I often request for dhal only to prevent wastage. =)

My breakfast combination! Teh Tarik and Roti Canai (Kosong/Plain). So Malaysian. XD

And this is Roti Tissue. It is paper-thin and served with condensed milk. 
It is a good choice if you want something less filling and crunchy. 

I think this would be something special for foreigners, not for Malaysian. Tell your foreigner friends and relative, try roti canai and have it the local way (hands! No utensils!)
