Yu Ai Seafood Noodle @ Segambut

As i mentioned in earlier post, the place where i stay is a food heaven, from local to international cuisine. This week is the last week of me in KL before moving down south, yearning for some tasty local food, i drag my bro to Yu Ai Seafood at Segambut to have my seafood noodles craving answered...

Yu Ai is located in a shoplot nearby area sprawled with medium/small industrial lots.

They offer seafood noodles in 3 version:

Soup, Curry or Tom Yam

You may choose preferred type of noodles such as beehon, mee, kueytiaw, yee mee and so on.

They do offer fish head noodle nowadays.

We chose to be seated outside although they have an "indoor" section. We found it very hot that day, and they are cooking the noodles in the shop itself, better to stay far away to avoid being over dehydrated!

Curry seafood noodles
RM17 for big version


Tomyam seafood noodles
RM15 for small version


What is inside: prawns, clams, fish slice, squid
As for the taste, i absolutely love the spiciness and thick taste of the tom yam. Couldn't stop slurping it! Could have finished it if not that i am worried of msg over-laden.

Got my craving done and tummy perfectly filled!
This seafood noodle place is definitely a must for food lover, OCCASIONALLY la.... (well in my humble opinion) due to its price.

Some people commented that it is expensive, well i am 1 of them. However, i do not mind to splurge on it occasionally....

Opening hours: 8 am - 5 pm

Teochew Seafood Noodle @ Jalan Ipoh

The area where i am staying is actually a food gem, especially local foods. It's close to Sri Hartamas, Solaris is only less than 5 minutes drive away, and pretty near to areas selling good cheap local foods. Jalan Ipoh is a long stretch of road, and nearby the Plaza Sungai Mas, there are a few food centres and lines of hawker stalls. Me and bro will usually head to this area during weekend lunch if we do have nowhere specific to go....

There is a stall selling teochew seafood noodles specifically. What made teochew seafood noodles special is their soup. Very clear but not losing it's sweetness and the oomph! I think i have blog about this before. Nevermind, i do not mind to share this little hidden gem again...

There are a lot of varieties of seafood to choose from. From the normal teochew fishball, clams, mussels, prawns, sliced MA YAU fish, even LONG TAN fish...Price ranging from RM3.50 to RM10++, depending what you order...

You can choose the noodles from a variety like beehoon, kueytiaw, yee-mee, mee suah and so on, and choose to want it dry or in soup.

This round, i ordered mussels, with additional of fish dumplings. The fish dumplings were really great!

Piping hot soup in a hot day!

Enjoy!

My Farewell (IX)

15 April 2010 was my last day in the Firm. I reserved the dinner session for my group members. Thank you Esther who gathered so many people for this dinner. I had fun...and i could see that everyone was having fun too....

They were so happy...why ah?

I really like steamboat. I think i will miss this very much after i go to Singapore...

We were at HO HO Steamboat @ Segambut. I wanted to come here for a special dish actually...

Some extra ingredients we ordered.

Fish slices, pork bacon and some balls...

This is it! The special dish that i mentioned.

Crab roe!

Not cheap, but we had around 20 pax that day so it wouldn't hurt too much...haha....

The fresh roe looked so fake to me actually. I wonder was it really from the crabs....

Cook, cook, cook

Boil, boil, boil

Thank you girls and guys! We had wonderful night that time!

The boss even gave us some free Heineken so we used that to pose! Haha...

See you guys around soon! Good luck to all!

Our local kopitiam

I am glad that Malaysia has many nice eateries around, be it high end or economical. We are never tired of exploring good food around, and it does taste better with the right partner around =)

I have managed to explore 2 local kopitiam which has been around in town for many years, and i found the food to be awesomely delicious!

Jalan Ipoh kopitiam

the row of shop next to the mosque at Jalan Ipoh,

near Sungei Mas building, Jalan Ipoh

some local beverage for our brunch

Wantan Mee - RM4.30 (Medium)

I was actually quite surprised with the quality of this wantan mee. Springy noodle and the charsiew was quite tender. The most interesting part was they used pork lard! So this is their little secret for such a humble dish....

We went here twice and he ordered twice!

This kopitiam has a stall that sells Teochew style porridge and noodles, with ingredients such as lala, fish balls, and a few kinds of fish (MaYao, ikan bawal and etc)

I ordered MaYao noodle soup

RM10.50

Like this very much, very clear soup, sweet as well, and i doubt whether they added any oil in it!

Fish meat was fresh too....

Very suitable for girls on diet like me...haha....

Restoran Mee Yoke Lim @ Chow Yang SS2, PJ

Busy saturday with big crowds around

The famous Prawn Mee - RM4.00
Right kick of spiciness in the soup, and thick broth as well
But overall was a normal Prawn noodle for both of us.....
nothing extraordinary indeed....



There is a stall selling Penang Char Kuay Teow and we decided to try, and it turned out to be a right decision!
RM4.00
Huge shrimp, full of wok-hei...the right Penang version that we seldom see in town...
I am definitely giving thumbs up for this!



Craved for popiah so i ordered this, and the minimum order is 2 pieces, at RM1.50 per piece!
A very good tactic in doing business ehh?
But it was only averageeeeeeeeee!

I know there are many good local kopitiam around which serves good and affordable foods...will definitely explore it!

A lovely weekend ~~~

The special one was in town last weekend, reached KL on Friday evening. Met up my Jimuis in Sunway for steamboat - Umami. Was already 9pm by the time we reached, blamed the stupid jam! Was too hungry so didn't even snap picture there! So not Mie ..haha...

Meagan suggested we should go for durians after the dinner, obviously we said YES! So we headed to SS2, which is famous fo the RM10 Eat-All-You-Can durians for RM10 or 15 like that....but we were too full so didn't take that offer, opted to eat premium durians instead...haha...

Drooling ~~~~

We definitely enjoyed ourselves!

Guarantee!

His craving was so great we ended up going there again the next evening...hohoho~~~

We had DimSum breakfast at the famous Jin Xuan Hong Kong @ Damansara Jaya the next morning...long queue

Got the waiting ticket somemore!

All the dimsum that we had.

Especially love the egg custard pau (yellow color). Best eaten while hot.

Overall there are a lot of varities offered here. More than the Hong Kee which is just few rows away. Overall the dim sum here is good, very delicious...

I like the way this uncle enjoyed himself ~~~

Total damage - RM40++

WOW ~~

We had a few hours to kill before the dinner with siblings. Went to explore Solaris Mont Kiara, which is only 5 minutes from my condo. Manage to find Departure Lounge, which i had been reading from blogs.

Love this corner, many travel books for you to read while sipping coffee...

Latte and Hot Chocolate

Love the Illy coffee

Breakfast is their specialty, you can mix and match the breakfast according to your preference.

Next time shall try...

Some photo shooting...both too free...haha ~~~

Dinner was with siblings at Billion Restaurant, Jalan Ipoh
