All the way…

Last Tuesday, Mandy took my missus and me all the way to Subang to where all the prestigious private colleges are located, to this place…

…for dinner. Gosh! There were so many stalls that one would definitely be spoilt for choice and I am pretty certain that those people there are making tonnes of money from all the students studying in the vicinity. I have seen this Vietnamese dish on TV, so I ordered some to try…

I guess they’re some kind of popiah wrapped in rice paper and in my opinion, they were nothing great really – I don’t think I would ever want to order that again. In comparison, their deep-fried spring rolls were a lot nicer…

I also knew that this would be nothing like the real thing but I just had to order it so that I can post on it and gloat, “See! I told you so!”

True enough, it did not even look anything like Kuching kolo mee…or as it was called, “Cat City kolok mee“. To be fair, it tasted all right, just that it was far from what kolo mee should look and taste like. I wish they would just give it its own name rather than claim it to be what it isn’t.

This was the XL-sugar cane juice that I had…

…and my missus ordered the or chian (oyster omelette) which certainly looked more like the ones in Penang but I thought the one that we had at Jalan Alor was nicer…

Mandy ordered this fried chicken dish…

…and also the ikan bakar (grilled fish) – parek (stingray)…

…plus this sweet and sour prawn dish that resembled the Vietnamese prawns that I had long ago in Sibu…

It came with a bun that was very nice and crusty on the outside and inside, it looked like braided strand of thick noodles…

All of them were nice and we certainly had a delightful dinner, thanks to Mandy…except that it was kind of out of the way and the traffic jams en route sure did not help one bit. But as she keeps letting us, “If there’s no jam, then it isn’t KL already!” I guess there’s some truth in that, don’t you think? LOL!!!
