Wine Steamboat in Bandar Menjalara Kepong - Tai Tao Steamboat Restaurant - by Best Restaurant To Eat

Steamboat is a very popular in Kuala Lumpur. Most outlet will serves it in many different broth i.e. Clear Soup, Tom Yam, Herbal and some are porridge base.

At this Tai Tao Steamboat located at No. 97, Jalan 11/62A, Bandar Menjalara, Kuala Lumpur, Kepong, they have a very unique concoction that I have tried for the first time which is a Wine based. According to the owner, his nick name is Tai Tao - the wine which are used for the steamboat here is a mixture of three wine namely White Wine, Yellow Wine & "Hsiao Heng" Wine.

We started off with the clear soup based for the other stuff i.e fishball, foo chuk, vegetable and so forth.

As you can see from the photo, the concoction came in a separate bowl i.e. the mixture is served with prawns, ginger and "Mok yee" black fungus. We were a bit skeptical about trying this new type of steamboat but what a surprise when we eat it.

It tasted like the Wine Chicken that post natal mother take during confinement. Another way to express it, was like drinking Hot SAKE and you can feel the wine flowing down from your throat to the stomach which is extremely tummy warming during cold raining evening.

The freshnest of the prawns makes it a perfect combination. It would have been even better if we had some "Choy Yin (farm)" Chicken as well. You can add the beehoon into wine broth for your finale.

If you want to try something different for steamboat, this has to be it. Don;t worry the wine will not make you drunk as when it is boiling the alcohol content gets evaporated.

BBQ In Cheras - GPot Steamboat Restaurant - Cheras - by Best Restaurant To Eat

Had the opportunity to try out Steamboat cum BBQ at Restoran G-Pot - located at 8, Jalan Kaskas, Taman Cheras, Kuala Lumpur, Cheras . I have a very high standard as far as steamboat is concerned.

There are 4 type of soup base that is the clear soup, tomyam, herbal and pumpkin porridge. My ratings for the soup base is below average. I sampled some of the seafood but it was not that fresh except for the prawns. Did not give a good impression.

 

 

But, what i found to be slightly better was the BBQ, which is using a metal plate, quite like the Korean BBQ. Most will use the marjerin as the base for the frying but since this is a steamboat restaurant, they have shallot oil. So, we decided to use this oil instead as our base as it is less fattening. Surprisingly it turns out quite nice when we BBQ the wafer thin pork slice, beef slices and lamb slices. Oh and also the Prawns. This was the saving grace for the night.

 

 

 

I hope the restaurant can ensure much fresher seafood in the future.

Overall my ratings for the BBQ was 2.5 out of 5.

 

 

Herbal Dang Gui Duck Glass Noodle/ Rice Vermicelli - Lai Lai Casual Dinning Restaurant - Kuchai Entrepreneur Park KL - by Best Restaurant To Eat

Lai Lai Casual Dining located at 2G, Jalan Kuchai Maju 9, Off Jalan Kuchai Lama, Kuchai Lama

Duck are best eaten as Roast Duck or Teochew Stewed Duck or Eight Treasure Duck. As a soup, most restaurant will sell Duck with salted vegetable (Ham Choy) but not using Dang Gui.

I have a little doubt on how this Herbal Dang Gui Duck Glass Noodle/ Rice Vermicelli will turnout and taste. The first slurp of the soup gives out a truly warm feeling. If this soup is taken during the cooler weather, it will definitely be a real comfort food.

With a generous amount of herbs used, the aroma of the soup was very strong and flavourful. Although this dish is served with Glass Noodle or Rice Vermicelli, we have opted for the soup alone. I believe this soup will be best eaten accompanied with pluffy white rice instead. The price for a bowl of this dish is RM13.80.

Another soupy version is the one from Bidor, Ipoh. Duck drumstick noodles, the use of herbs are pale in comparison with the one I eaten here.

Beefy Taiwan Noodles - Lai Lai Casual Dinning Restaurant - Kuchai Entrepreneur Park KL - by Best Restaurant To Eat

As the name implies, it is a casual dining cafe. It specializes in serving taiwanese food. Of late they have been many outlets specializing in taiwan food, probably due to the fact that many Malaysian have visited Taiwan of late and have tasted many of the street food there.

Lai Lai Casual Dining is a new cafe that started its business about 1 and a half months ago. Having success in Singapore they are now in Malaysia - to be precise at 2G, Jalan Kuchai Maju 9, Off Jalan Kuchai Lama, Kuchai Lama. The outlet is a no frill and very well litted. I could smell the fragrant aroma of the beef broth which filled the air upon entering the shop. Can't wait to taste the specialty dish.

I had the opportunity to savour their signature dish which is none other than the popular Stewed Beef Noodle. In Kuala Lumpur, the popular beef noodles that I have tasted are usually the clear soup version while the taiwanese version are usually the spice infused stewed version.

The Beef noodles serves here is very flavourful and original. The aroma itself was just mouth-watering which is due to the amount of spices that was used to prepare the stew broth. Tasting this tummy-warming stew broth and you will know that much efforts have been put into preparing this dish. The noodles was that on the springy type. Although it was a little thicker than I would have liked, a slightly thinner version would have it made perfect for me.

The beef served were very chunky, while the meat was tender and juicy - evidence of the skills of the chef that was preparing this stew. For me, the best part of the noodles are the beef tendon, it was chewy and have retain the firmness of the tendon. The price for a bowl of this noodle RM13.80, but if you opt for tendon alone, you will need to add another RM2.00. Rating 4 of 5.
