Marc's Grill @ Puchong IOI Boulevard - Delicious Grill and Malaysian Favourites Dish Review


Best Restaurant To Eat was invited to review a new cafe with a friendly atmosphere, neighbourhood restaurant i.e Marc's Grill located at Lot G 32 IOI Boulevard Jalan Kenari 7 Bandar Puchong Jaya 47100 Puchong Selangor.


Paying special attention to customer needs and making customer feel at ease is the mission of the cafe. The ambiance setting creates a family feel that welcomes you back to home. Armed with special homemade recipe together with the use of the freshest and natural ingredients that tantalizes your taste buds.

We started off with the Bistro Walnut Bacon Salad (RM 18.00). This is a savoury salad which is filled with garden fresh salad, cut apples, mangoes, cherry tomatoes and coupled with walnut to give it the crunchy feel and texture; while the grilled bacon adds a savoury taste to this starter salad.


This is then followed by the Mushroom Soup  (RM 7.80). The mushroom used in the soup is the shiitake mushroom which was finely blended and cooked with cream to give it a smooth texture.


For the grill meat dishes, we started with Honey Mustard Chicken (RM 16.80). The chicken thigh is grill in a special fryer and served with grilled potatoes or mashed potatoes, corn and greens of the day and topped with a choice of black pepper or mushroom sauce.


The next dish is the Ribeye Beef Steak (RM 32.00). The rib eye steak was lightly marinated with salt and pepper; pan fried to the customer preference and served with potato wedges, grilled tomatoes, corn on cob and broccoli. What I like about the steak dishes served at Marc's Grill is that, the sauce are served separately; thereby giving you a choice to how much sauce you like on your steak.


Next on is the Tasty Beefy Beef (RM 17.80); it is a burger with a homemade beef patties and top with Shimeji mushroom on a Black Charcoal Bun. For meat lovers, the thick beef patties is a real treat.


The final grill dish is the Grilled Lamb (RM 22.80). For this dish, the sauce is similar to the Honey Mustard Chicken that we had earlier, but only the chicken is being replaced with lamb accordingly.


Every cafe and restaurant like to serve the Big Breakfast and Marc's Grill is no exception; The Big Breakfast (RM 19.50) set serves here comprised of a generous amount of scrambled eggs and a very refreshing salad i.e. the one that we had earlier; fried sausages and bacon.


At Marc's Grill, for lunch time , they served a few set lunches and we had the opportunity to taste 2 of the bestseller; the first of which is the Ayam Goreng Berempah Set (RM 14.90). The chicken thigh is marinated overnight and fried to a fragrant aroma. The enclosed fried rempah was very crisp and goes extremely well with the plain fried rice. 


The other lunch set is the Mutton Curry Set (RM 16.80). The ingredient used to cooked the curry was very flavourful but it was a little too spicy for us. If you want to eat this ala-carte, it will be best to paired with a cold beer.


For dessert, we had the Savoury Waffles With Bacon & Walnut (RM 15.90); A very special treat as the waffles was very crisp, served with fried bacon; ladle with a tasty Hollandaise sauce and topped with 2 sunny side up with Walnut topping. 


Bring your family or friends to try out this family oriented restaurant from Marc's Grill when you are at Puchong.

Pork Place - Puchong IOI Boulevard - Premium Porkilicious DishesReview


There are quite a number of restaurant that features pork as its key ingredients; but non so far as to a have restaurant that bred it's own pig i.e. from farm to table. +BestRestaurant ToEat was invited to this special review at The Pork Place, No 31, IOI Boulevard, Jalan Kenari 7, Bandar Puchong Jaya, 47100 Puchong, Selangor, Malaysia; where the pork that are served comes from their very own locally bred farm in Johor. 


The Pork Place @Puchong is unlike any other restaurant where you can also buy fresh pork meat too, there is a air conditioned, clean and hygienic counter that customers can walk in and buy their favourite parts of pork meat. Their brand of pork is called SanBanto which is in the business of supplying the highest quality of pork to some of the restaurants and supermarkets in Malaysia for the past 13 years.


Their pork farm has received ISO certification to ensure top quality produce and production process. Sanbanto has also successfully bred a special Black pig called "Hei Zhu" which has its origin from the heritage Berkshire breed from English county. The result is the quality of marbled leaner meat and firmer flesh that suit the taste and cooking style of Malaysian market.


We started our review with 2 salad which is the Pork Belly Salad (RM18.90); the pork belly strips are deep fried and served with fresh seasoned local and imported fresh green vegetable with a french dressings.


The Pork Belly has a crisp and crunchy feel while the sweet lychee was a nice mixture to balance off with the pork belly.


Next, we had the Pork Bacon Salad (RM21.00) which is served with fresh Romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, olives topped with cheddar cheese and bacon bits served with our special house made orange dressings.


Followed by the special Hei Zhu meat dishes, which is only available for weekend; starting with the Twirls of Landrace-Duroc (RM22.80) also known as (AKA) Pig in Blanket which is meaty pork wrapped in Bacon and coated with a special in-house made sauce on a bed of garden salad.


the next "Hei Zhu" special was the Loin Steaks (RM50.00); a thin and succulent steaks which is grilled and served with onion rings and potatoes with wings.


The problem with Loin Steaks is, the meat tends to be a little harder after it is grilled, but if you add in the sauce it covers some of this shortcoming.


This is then followed by the Collar Steak (RM68.00) which is a special cut and cooked with a rich bone stock and served with dauphinoise potatoes. The meat was braised until a soft and smooth texture.


The last dish from the "Hei Zhu" weekend menu is the Best Of Bellies (RM65.00) - A juicy chunks of pork belly served with mashed potatoes and mushrooms.


This dish is only revered by those that loves the really pork fats as this pork belly is literally covered with more than 90% pure juicy fats.


After that we were served some speciality dishes from the standard menu, which is the Crispy Skin Pork Knuckle; the Pork Knuckles is oven roasted to ensure a moist, tender and juicy meat on the inside and a crisp, crunchy skin on the outside.


The Pork Knuckles is served with mashed potatoes and shredded cabbage with a special concocted mustard sauce at the side. The meat of the knuckles was very tender and does not have any porky smell making it a delight to be eaten especially for me who just loves Pork Knuckles.


and the last dish for the review was the Barbecue Ribs; which is a special cut of ribs belly meat which is marinated with an in-house Barbecue sauce.


The ribs was very tender, succulent and it easily cut off without putting too much pressure while cutting. The cooking process takes many steps of coating with the barbecue sauce, until it is charred sufficiently leaving a strong aroma of the grill and the taste of flavourful sauce. It is served on a bed of mashed potatoes and salad.


If you just love everything pork or just love to eat Pork; the Pork Place @Puchong is sure the place to be whether you want to dine in or buying some of the premium pork for home cooking.

Puchong Setia Walk Big Spoon - A Spoonful of Food review by Best Restaurant


Nowadays the trend of eating is to eat a petite serving thereby enabling you to taste more delicacies. With that note, Best Restaurant To Eat was invited to preview Big Spoon at D-7-G, Block D, Setia Walk Persiaran Wawasan Puchong, Selangor.


The unique concept of Big Spoon is to serve an unique American Chinese fusion cuisine in a spoon, a real big spoon.


The decor of Big Spoon is one with a simple no-fuss design with a very simple menu - real fast food stuff.


Most of the dishes served at Big Spoon are quite similar in concept like a dim sum offering, where you can order these appetizer dishes.


We started the review with the Tomatoes in Sweet Osmanthus sauce - This is one of the most popular appetizers during summer. Chilled tomatoes are tossed with an inhouse made osmanthus glaze to give it a refreshing sweet and sour taste with a subtle fragrance of osmanthus to stimulate your appetite in a hot summer afternoon.


followed by the Oriental Salad - A Fresh, crisp, and cold combination of Iceberg Lettuce, cherry tomatoes and Fried Wonton Wrap. Drizzled with an oriental flavor salad dressing which consist of Soy sauce, Peanut butter, vinegar, sugar and black bean hot sauce.


and followed by Steam Dumplings which came with a special in house sauce. I find the dough to be a little too thick though.


After which we had the Pan Fried Dumplings - This version of dumpling is the Pan fried northeast china handmade Dumplings which is stuffed with chicken and napa cabbage. It goes well together with either the house special black bean hot sauce or the combination of vinegar and house special hot oil. 


the next appetizer we had is the Fried Spring Roll - This Spring roll is an iconic item on most menu of Chinese restaurant in America. The spring roll here at Big Spoon is served with an house special dipping sauce.


The last starter that we had was the Strawberry butter cream prawns (not on menu yet)- Big size wild catch of sea prawns from South China Sea is cooked to perfection to ensure the bouncy and firm texture of the prawn is maintained. Served with butter cream sauce which is sweet and savory and garnish with strawberry to add a sweet tinge of sourish of the strawberry to extract out the full flavors of the Prawns.


Chicken Cold Noodle - A cold noodle dish topped with shredded chicken meat.


For desserts, we had the Golden Pear Essence Dessert - A 3 hours-slow-cooked clear soup; boil with Pear, white fungus, wolfberries, and rock sugar. 


followed by the Crispy Taro Roll – which is a homemade hot dessert or snack stuffed with taro root paste which has no artificial coloring or flavoring while the two ends of roll are dipped in fragrant roasted sesame seed.


For me, the overall food that are served at Big Spoon is more for a snack meal or small eat where you savour each of these snacks. For people who likes to munch; Big Spoon meals will be a good choice for you.
