Malaysian Egg rolls @ Sisters Kitchen

 

 

After seeing the photos of the egg rolls on OpenRice, I found them quite appealing so I bought some to try.

 

I have not tried these before nor do I know what they are.
I thought they were sweet pancakes at first with chocolate sauce drizzled over it according to the photos posted on OpenRice.

Anyway, got some egg rolls and the Buk Kut Teh soup.

They also had CHICK kut Teh soup which sounds cute because it is chicken instead of pork!
I wonder if they have it in Malaysia because there are lots of religions there that can not eat pork.

Popiah Egg rolls:
They looked quite different from the rolls sold two months ago, they did not have any sauce on it. (Left top corner of this picture)
I asked if there was meant to be any sauce so they gave me some vinegar which looks nothing like the sauce used before because the sauce on the picture is thick.

 

Inside the rolls were mostly white carrots, a few shreds of cucumber and some crushed peanuts.
The roll was sweetish with some Satay sauce taste.

Buk Kut Teh soup:
The soup tasted really nice but there was too much oil on top.
The herb taste was really strong especially the wolfberries.
In the soup there were button mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, tofu puffs, beancurds and a piece of pork ribs.

Malaysian Ipoh delights @ Wan Chai

Quite interesting, before Ipoh opened, there were two restaurants before it, the First was a Singaporean restaurant Pasar, then it was some Vietnamese restaurant and now it is Malaysian.

Although it opened recently, there are many regulars at this restaruant, and their customer service is extremely brilliant.
There was an elderly dining there, and the waitress was very attenative and helped her separate the chicken from the bone into smaller pieces and removing the chicken skin.

Anyway ordered some noodles, buk kut teh, chicken with rice and a lemon and barley drink.

Buk Kut Teh:
The broth was not peppery but I found it quite salty

Chicken with rice:
The rice was really nice and not oily.
The chicken was moist and tender.

Hak-ga style noodles
I found the noodles quite chewy and not soft at all, but overall it tasted quite nice. Although the noodles had a strong taste, the soup that came with it tasted saltier than the noodles.
The sauce was really refreshing and it tastes like the chili sauce in some thai restaurants.

Lemon and Barley drink:
The sweetness of this drink was just right and it was slightly viscous.
The lemon and barley itselft could both be tasted.

Laksa and Buk Kut Teh @ 楊氏肉骨茶 YEOH'S BAH KUT TEH

Ordered their house special: Laksa, and the Bah Kut Teh (original).

Laksa:
The soup was strong with coconut, nicely flavoured, not too rich and not too spicy.
The noodles in the laksa was a mixture of rice vermicelli and "oil noodles".
Anyway there were lots of other standard things on the laksa, such as beancurd, prawns,etc.
Personally I liked the soup, but I disliked the noodles, because they don't really soak up the soup, so quite tasteless.

Bah Kut Teh:
There were many versions offered here which was good, especially for non pork eaters. The soup was flavoured just right, not too strong or salty.
To me there was a strong taste of chinese mushrooms (shiitake).
The ribs that came were a little dry, or maybe cos they have been in the pot for quite some time.

Laksa and Buk kut teh @ 馬拉盞星馬美食 Malaysia (Port Klang) Cuisine Limited

Usually I satisfy my Laksa cravings on the Hong Kong side, but after finding out there is one in MK, I decided to give it a try.
Looking at the menu, I felt like I had seen it before, one of the staff looked familiar too, then after enquiring about it, he was the guy from "YEOH'S BAH KUT TEH" in Jordan

Ordered the Pork rib tea and seafood laksa, price wise, it is all cheaper than the ones in Wanchai, ie Pasar and Katong. The laksa soup here is rather bland, nothing like the strong ones in Wanchai, just like the previous review by Kwokmauyan.
The pork rib tea, tasted ok, not strong in herbs, and contained alot of fatty meats.

Also the barley water I ordered way MEGA too sweet, I even poured a third of it into a glass of warm water, and still it was so sweet.
