There are many Korean BBQ Buffet Restaurant in the Klang Valley, a number of them offer a very limited selection of food to choose from. Here at Hwa Ga 火 家 San Nae Deul Korean BBQ Buffet Restaurant, you will be spoilt with choices which range from fresh meats to marinated meats to some of the other Korean Authentic Traditional dishes.

This ensures that you will definitely fill your stomach to the brim when you leave the restaurant. Frankly speaking, for the first time, I did not have the stomach to taste every single dish in a buffet as some of the mains were already filling up my stomach.

Imagine having more than 31 choices to choose from and this does not include the snack dishes. Check out the menu above to see whether your favourite dish is there. We are sure that you will easily find a couple of your favourite BBQ and Korean dishes from the menu.

Firstly, let me highlight some of my personal favourite which is the Pork Jowl (pork cheek). For me, this is one of the best cut for BBQ as the fats layers have a firm tender texture while the meat is tender when you BBQ this meat. I ordered 3 serving of this dish.

followed by the various cut of Pork Belly, Lamb and Beef cut

and then the Grilled Squid which has a marinade in it,

or the Marinated Pork which has a slightly saltier flavours.

Finally for me - is the Fried Chicken which has a nice crisp of the skin. Simply sinfully but delicious. Wish I had more stomach to fill in.

and for those that love its fried chicken with sauce coating, can try Hwa Ga Fried Chicken with Sweet and Chilli Sauce.

While there is, you can also try out the appetising looking Bibimbap

or the 2 different pancake offering of Kim Chi Pancake and the Spring Onion Pancake with Korean Noodles.

or for Jiggae fan can try out the following Soy Bean Stew

or the Soy Bean Stew With Beef

or the Spicy Soy Bean Stew

and more dishes that we didn't have the chance to taste like the other marinated meat like the sliced pork belly, beef with soy sauce, or marinated pork ribs and many more choices.

Kota Damansara Food: SHELLOUT Seafood Restaurant - Louisiana Cajun Boil Fresh Seafood Feast

Seafood is one of yours truly favourite food; and when the invitation to review Shellout Seafood Restaurant 16-1 Jalan PJU5/15 Dataran Sunway Kota Damansara 47810 Petaling Jaya came by, there was no hesitation to rescheduled all the other review.

What is so special about the seafood that is served at Shellout Seafood Restaurant? The seafood is cooked using the Louisiana Boil style. People of Louisiana USA are used to this cooking style; in which the seafood are boiled using a special seafood or crab recipe broth. The seafood is then interspersed on the table to be eaten with your bare hands and fingers; normally outdoor.

Shellout Seafood Restaurant was set up to have a seafaring theme since it is a restaurant that specialises in seafood and on most of its' walls, you can see the graffiti that are drawn and written by customers who patronise the restaurant.

At Shell Out Seafood Restaurant the recipe broth is the Louisiana Cajun Boil which has a slightly stronger taste with a slight spicy note. You can order your boil based on your tolerant level of spiciness; which is either on a mild, medium or the super spicy level which is known as OMG. You can also order the Original flavour (a stronger taste) or the Malaysian style (milder flavour and less salty).

The restaurant also served up some starter food like the one that we had; was the Sweet Potatoes Fries (RM9.90).

The second snack on the table was the Silver Pomfret which came with French Fries. We love the Pom-Fret as it was fried to a very crisp and crunchy texture. You can literally eat every part of the fish including the bones.

Next came our first boil on the table which is the Big Crab (market price) in the Original flavour Shell Bang medium spicy level sauce. Customers can order the add on to the boil in which we had the Broccoli (RM10.90), Corn-on-cob (RM2.10 each) and Potato (RM8.80 for 3 pcs). The meat of the crab was very fresh and the sauce was very tasty with a strong cajun flavour. These meat crabs are sourced from Indonesia.

To go with the sauce, we ordered the Garlic Bread (RM 9.90 for 6 pcs). Spread the sauce onto the crispy bread and viola, a toast that you just can't stop eating.

Next on the table was the Yabbies or Crawfish (RM50.90 for 500g) in Black Pepper Sauce. Some customer remarks that it is quite challenging to eat these yabbies, but there is a very simple way to enjoy this crustacean, first you snap off the head and suck out the cream from the yabbies head, then you proceed to break the tail section, give a massage along both the sides of the yabbies from front to end and when you are done; Peel off the skin and viola you have a single piece of crawfish meat. Yummy.

This is followed by the Succulent King Prawns, (RM 55.90++ per 500 grammes) on the Butter Garlic Sauce with OMG spicy level. The firm texture of the prawn is infused with butter and an aromatic garlic flavour; such that it melts in the mouth and leave a savoury aftertaste of this sauce.

Next on, is the Green Mussel (RM 31.90++ for 8 pcs) in a Lemon Pepper Sauce. This is another sauce that we like. The fresh mussel meat texture was firm and very succulent.

followed by the Bamboo Clams (RM 20.90++ per 500 gramme) also in Lemon Pepper Sauce. This method of cooking the Bamboo Clams brings out the clams natural sweetness.

The next seafood on the table was the Giant Scallops (RM 29.90++ for 6 pcs) on a Butter Garlic sauce - medium. We like this sauce and the combination of the butter and garlic does bring out the full flavours of the fresh Giant Scallop meat; which has a very bouncy and a slightly chewy texture.

Our last seafood which is the Star of the night is the Canadian Lobster with the Shell Bang sauce. For fans of lobster you really got to try this out. Although a little messy to eat, you can request the friendly staff to help you out with the dissection after you have feasted with your eyes and in our case, our cameras.

If you love fresh seafood and like to try out the Louisiana Cajun Boil style for a change, then head over to SHELLOUT Seafood Restaurant at Kota Damansara for your seafood fix. Make sure you made a prior reservation as it is usually packed.

Mutiara Damansara Food: Minori Japanese Restaurant Royal Chulan Damansara Hotel - Specialty Japanese Food.

Japanese is fond of eating exotic and prized seafood as it is. Little wonder when +BestRestaurant ToEat was invited to taste some of the special menu offering of MINORI Japanese Restaurant located The Royal Chulan Damansara Hotel 1st Floor No.2 Jalan PJU 7/3 Mutiara Damansara 47810 Petaling Jaya.

Minori Japanese Restaurant is a multiple MIGF award winner restaurant that has showcase some of the authentic and traditional Japanese dishes that captivate its' customer to continue to patronize the restaurant for some seasonal fare from time to time.

Set in a modern Zen style Japanese decorations, the restaurant has an elegant dining ambiance that are suitable for business and family dining. 

For this review; Chef Takahiro will be showcasing four of the dishes under his Omakase set. The first dish on the table was the Cod Fish Sperm Sashimi style which is the best way to eat it as you can taste its natural taste. This is the first time, we are tasting the Cod Fish Sperm. 

This Fish Sperm has a slippery soft white texture which is a popular delicacy during the winter season in Japan. When bitten it; together with a dip of the sauce, you can feel the bursting feel followed by a soft texture tau foo like musky taste of the cod fish. This Sashimi is complemented with chilled shredded radish, seaweed and scallion. 

The second dish is the Foie Gras Chawanmushi. Chawan mushi is one of yours truly favorite dish. The eggs texture are silky soft and was perfectly enhanced with the flavour and taste of the Foie Gras. Topped with a special sauce it was indeed a delight to slurp this velvety savoury egg dish. 

Next comes the in-house signature Minori Rolls. Using fresh ingredients such as soft shell crab and grilled eel was an interesting combination for this maki. Rolled it in with the natural sweetness of the avocados and dressed with a mayo based dressing, it was a delight to be eaten.

For dessert, we had the Fish Collagen Mochi Japanese Rice-Cake Dessert a.k.a Water Mochi. Water Mochi which has a soft and bouncy gelatin like texture; are made from fish bone and fish scales. You can then add in the Japanese Gula Melaka syrup; followed by the Finely Roasted Soya Bean powder and you have a dessert that is simple and delicious.

Make a date with Minori Japanese Restaurant to try out their Omakase style set and be prepared to be surprised with the offering of the chef.

Tao Authentic Asian Restaurant @Dataran Sunway, Sunway Giza Kota Damansara Selangor - Eat All You Can Japanese Buffet.

There are mainly 2 type of buffet in the market; one that have a spread out of all the dishes at the buffet counters whereas the other one is the ala-carte. Being a buffet junkie, where you want to taste everything, I personally prefer the ala carte buffet where you can order dish by dish. This way it is more relax and you really can taste out the dishes individually at your own pace.

With that +BestRestaurant ToEat was invited to taste the Japanese Buffet at Tao Authentic Asian Restaurant located at 2nd floor, No.2, Sunway Giza Mall, Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara 47810 Petaling Jaya.

We like the atmosphere and the dining environment at Tao Authentic Asian Restaurant as it exudes a luxury feel while not burning a big hole in your pocket with their affordable pricing of the ala carte eat all you can buffet. Moreover there is a 4 hours time (lunch and dinner on week day) to enjoy this freshly prepared cuisine.

At Tao Authentic Asian Restaurant, not all the dishes are Japanese, there are a few bouts of Asian and Chinese dishes that are served although just a handful.

The young Chef Hew, recommended us to try some of the dishes from each section so that we can taste all the different cooking style and flavours. We started off with the MAKI section; which the first dish is the Crazy Roll - a combination of prawn tempura and salmon wrapped with sushi rice and topped with bonito flakes.

followed by the Green Dragon Roll - this roll is made up of deep fried prawn, cucumber, kani, avocado and mango. It has a very refreshing sweet mayo taste.

Next, we move to the NIGIRI /SASHIMI section where we were first served the Hokkigai which is an Arctic Surf Clam Sushi.

followed by the Unagi (Eel) Sushi

and the last sushi is the Ebi(Prawn) Sushi

We were then served the Moriawase Sashimi (Assorted Raw Fish). One of the most important test is to ensure that the fish was of good quality. For our meal, the combination raw fish was fresh and the texture was good.

Moving on to the next section is the ZENSAI, we tried the Awabi Ebiko (Abalone With Ebiko Sauce) we love the taste of this chilled abalone surimi.

and the GYOZA (Pan Fried Minced Chicken Dumpling). This dish came with a special sauce to accompany the gyoza.

The next section is the AGEMONO; we were served the Tempura Moriawase which is a platter of prawn tempura with a combination of vegetable like; brinjal, ladies fingers, sweet potatoes and so forth.

We also sample the KOROKKE which is the Japanese Croquette. The filling is made from sweet potatoes. We like the texture and the crisp feel when we take the first bite.

Under the TEPPANYAKI Section, we were served the Hot Plate Beef Bacon With Cream Cheese and Spring Onion. The texture of the beef bacon was just nice and with the cream cheese it gives a special flavour and served on a sizzling plates it exudes a nice aroma and flavour.

From here we moved to the next section which is the YAKIMONO; the first dish on the table was the IKA TERIYAKI which is Grilled Squid With Teriyaki Sauce. Although my preference for this dish is using Shio(salt) but the teriyaki sauce that was used was quite nice and blended well with the firm and bouncy white squid meat. Love this dish anytime.

This is then followed by the MOTOYAKI SCALLOP which is Baked Scallop With Spicy Mayo. With the spicy mayo there is a different twist of flavours for the scallop which I usually eat sashimi style.

Next on, is the KAKI HIROYAKI which is Baked Oyster With Cheese Mayo. The cream cheese blended well with the Baked Oyster. For those that loves a cheesy option with oyster, you would probably enjoyed it more than me.

And the final dish under this section is the AYU - Smelt Fish - This is a very small fish which is spread with salt and baked. To eat this ,we have to de-skin the fish and there is very little meat in it, but the excellent sweet taste of the fish was very worth the effort to dissect it.

Moving on the next section is the ITAMEMONO - we had the SAKE HAMAGURI - which is Stir Fried Clams With Japanese Rice Wine. According to chef, this is a very easy dish to prepare. You stir fried with garlic and butter and when it is almost cooked, you put in the SAKE to add the wine aroma and taste to this soupy dish. We finish all the soup till the last drop.

Our last section, is the KUSHIYAKI; we had the TEBASAKI - Chicken Wing yakitori. It is using salt to spread and sent to the griller. We like it as it is not too salty. Just nice with the crisp skin and succulent meat. Compared to the others Chicken wing yakitori that we had at other restaurant which usually only served 2 pieces of winglet on one skewers (authentic version), Here at Tao, it it the deboned drumet and winglet.

Next is the IDAKO - Baby Octopus.The marinated baby octopus are grilled to a nice charred while its juicy and bouncy texture of the octopus make it a delight to be eaten. If only we had more stomach, I will re-order this dish again.

Our final dish is the EBI which is grilled prawn. Grilled to a nice charred taste with the sweet and salty meat texture that was used to sprinkle on the prawn while grilling.

For this Christmas, Tao Chef have prepared a dish that will be served only on Christmas day which is Crispy Fried Chicken With 5 Flavour sauce. You only get to sample this dish on that day.

There are a few more section in the menu that we don't even have anymore stomach space to put into any more. Even each section that we tried, it was only one or 2 dishes only and mind you there are also some delicacies on the buffet counter, appetizers and desserts that we literally cannot even eat at all. For the price that you pay for this all you can eat ala carte buffet; you really get the best value possible.
