Buns and Meat Restaurant Lakeside Sungei Besi – Gourmet Burger & Hot Dog Restaurant Review

This review is strictly for Pork Fan and Lovers. Best Restaurant To Eat was invited to review this Porklicious restaurant i.e. Buns and Meat Restaurant located at Ground Floor 72A, Jalan Tasik Utama 7, Lakefields, Sungai Besi, 57000 Kuala Lumpur.

Buns and Meat is a Non-Halal restaurant that serves gourmet pork burgers, hot dogs, pizza and pasta with pork as the centrepiece ingredient. 

Catering to the non-muslim customers, it also serves alcoholic drinks like beer, wine and hard liquor. 

The décor is one of a simple and casual open concept where customers can enjoy the pipe-in music; serenading in the background as you feast on the sumptuous pork meal. There is a small stage that can host singing performances or live music band.

We started the food review with the gourmet pork burger series. The bun of the burger with the special recipe which has a very strong buttery aroma, soft, fluffy and smooth texture (i.e. you can even eat it on its own) are tailored baked for Buns and Meat.

The thick pork patties with bacon and sauce are each made in-house by its own chef creation that gives a meaty and flavourful taste to each bite of the burger. Each burger set comes with a serving of French fries and mini serving of macaroni pasta.

The first of the burger that we had was the Char Siew Burger – It comes with a layer of succulent pork patty, cheesy melted cheese and topped with a generous serving of BBQ Char Siew. For those that love; Char Siew, this burger will be a good selection for you.

The next burger is the Runny Mess Burger – it is a pork patty topped with a piece of grilled pork bacon, melted cheese, with poached eggs and complimented with a cheesy sauce. 

This is much like the Egg Benedict on a burger bun. The cheesy taste was perfectly matched with the pork patties, slightly salty pork bacon and silky runny eggs.

Next, was the Black Pepper Pork Burger.

And the last burger was the Spicy Korean Ribs Burger. The pork rib are first cooked to a soft texture and then deboned – ready to be served. The sauce has a slight spicy, sweet and smoky taste. 

After the burger, this was followed by the gourmet German Hot Dog. According to owner Mr Robin, the skin of the sausage; are from the lamb, which has a firmer texture that gives a solid delight when biting into it. The sausage meat has a bouncy and springy texture; hallmark of a good quality German sausage.

The first hot dog was the Hot Dog with Jalapenos BBQ Slaw – it is a pork sausage served with topping of coleslaw, mustard sauce, finely chopped jalapeno and a sprinkle of fresh cut scallion and served with fries and Ham Salad.

Next, was the Mac and Cheese Hot Dog – the pork sausage is drenched with macaroni cheese and fried crispy chicken bits.

Followed by Hot Dog With Nacho Cheese Sauce – a pork sausage topped with cheesy and tomato based sauce, with pieces of nachos crunch.

And the Hot Dog With Bacon and Baked Beans.

and the final hotdog; which is the Hot Dog With Sauteed Mushroom and Black Pepper Sauce. 

The use of the Shimeji Mushroom added a new dimension to this Hot Dog. I find it pretty interesting combination; but nevertheless after tasting all the other Hot Dog earlier, I would say, this has to be my number one in terms of taste.

Other than burger and hot dogs, the pork ribs are one of the favourite offering at Buns and Meat Lake Side Sg Besi. There are 2 version of grilled pork ribs that are being offered. The first of which is the Spicy Korean Pork Ribs which was grilled enough to be flavourful without tasting the carbon. The meat was soft and tender and gel well with the slight spicy Korean sauce.

The other grilled pork ribs is the BBQ sauce enhanced ribs; which its BBQ sauce has a slightly sweeter and smoky taste. 

For pasta, we tried the Alio-Oglio with Pork Bacon. This is for those that love an added spiciness to the pasta. The rich flavor of the pork bacon, mushroom and dried chili combined with spaghetti or penne was tasty. 

I would have preferred the Spaghetti instead of the Penne Rigate that was used for the pasta, as spaghetti tends to gel easier with the sauce.

I love French Fries eaten with tomato and chilli sauce, but at Buns and Meat, we got to try out a special twist which is the Pulled Pork Fries which has the pork ribs meat shredded with the Korean Spicy Sauce. Finger licking good. Would have preferred the sauce served in a separate dish so that we can control on how much dip we would like for each fries.

At Buns and Meat, they also serves an array of artisan handmade cake for desserts.

So, there you have it, a nice little outlet Buns and Meat at Lakeside, Sungei Besi that serves tasty gourmet burgers and hot dog.

Foodlogy Restaurant Jalan Ipoh Sentul - A touch of French Food review

There are not many restaurant in Kuala Lumpur that serves top quality French food. Best Restaurant To Eat was invited to an early dinner review of this love for French affair at Foodlogy Restaurant located B-01, Viva Residency, Jalan Suppiah Pillay Off Jalan Ipoh, Sentul, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The decor is a casual and simple which resonates their theme of casual french dining.

At Foodlogy Restaurant, the chef/owner Ms Sandy believes in using top quality ingredients to prepare its' dishes that are served to its' customers.

We started the review with a Mushroom & Truffle Cream Soup - This soup is very flavourful, and you can taste the bits and pieces of mushroom with an enrich truffle flavours. It is indeed a tasty start for our review.

Next, we had the Potato Artichoke Salad  - it is a potato tossed with lettuce, baby green peas, artichoke, eggs, red onion, beef bacon, served with a topping of warm  hollandaise mustard and organic Dijon mustard sauce. 

The potatoes was cooked to a hard texture; which gives the customer a meaty feel while the warm sauce makes the salad unique and tasty with the combination of all the ingredient.

Since, the Chinese New Year was a week away, Foodlogy serves up a special Mandarin Orange Salad - a salad that is sprinkle with a generous amount of mini mandarin oranges that gives a sweet citrusy and tangy offering to the overall salad.

The drink that we tried to complement this healthy food was the Patrick Font Yellow Tomato juice.

After that we started with the appetizer which was the Sardine in Tin Serves with toasted baguette with salad and cheese cracker.

This is a real delicious appetizer for me, as I was surprised to taste this special sardine as it was very complemented with the toasted baguette.

To start off the Main dishes; the first of which is the Chicken A-la Cream - A pan fried chicken fillet with salad on the side, creamy mushroom and organic Dijon mustard sauce, parmesan cheese crackers and sauteed carrot.

I am not a real great fan of chicken breast meat as I find them very hard and lack flavour when cook as pan fried, but i was taken aback as the chef, have slice the breast meat before pan frying it and coating it with a creamy mushroom sauce that made this chicken breast meat tender and succulent.

Next, we had the Seafood Pasta in White Wine Reduction Sauce. This is a special spaghetti that is cooked in a white wine reduction sauce, filled with pan fried scallop, shrimp, fish and a special squid in ink. 

Normally most seafood spaghetti will use the fresh calamari, but at Foodlogy they put in a premium squid in ink, which has a very distinct flavours.

The next mains is the Steak A La Bleu - a rib eye steak served with French salad, house made blue cheese sauce, sauteed carrot and cheese crackers.

This is a dish for real cheese lovers, as the cheese sauce was so flavourful and empowering that each pieces of meat was literally coated with this cheesy sauce. If you are a real cheese fan, this dish is a must try for you.

For the last main dish we had; was the awesome Duck Breast Meat With Smoke Tea and Soya Sauce. This is a very unique creation from the chef.

The duck breast meat is cooked with a special smoked Lapsang Souchong tea that gives it a unique smoky aroma and flavours. The smoky taste penetrates deeply into the meat to gives you a very special smoky taste.

The last main that we had was the Poached Salmon With Herbs Court Bouillon - the salmon are cooked in the herbs court bouillon broth and served with salad on the side, dill sauce, sauteed carrot and parmesan cheese crackers.

As the salmon is cooked in the herbs court bouillon, the salmon is not bland and have a slight salty taste. Eaten with the dill sauce, it was a perfect pairing to this simple salmon dish.

After the main, we  move on to the a special local favourite which is the Foodlogy Nasi. 

The rice that is served here is the herb rice; made using spices such as cinnamon, star anise and turmeric. 

The rempah fried chicken which comes along with this set was very well marinated. We could taste the flavour right to the bone.The skin was crisp while the meat succulent and has a very flavourful aroma and taste. Moreover the home made sambal has the right balance of sambal and spiciness and was a perfect match to the herb rice and the fragrant rempah fried chicken.

After this hearty meal, it is time for some french desserts; which the first is the Choux A-la Creme 

This dessert is a French pastry ball served with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.

The balls were very crispy on the outside while having a soft texture much like a puff in inside. Eaten with the ice-cream and chocolate syrup it makes a sweet ending to our meal.

Another dessert that we had was the Crepes Suzettes - it is a crepes served with orange sauce with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

 

At Foodlogy Restaurant, the place is quite spacious and is able to hold special function for up to 50 person. 

One of the thing at Foodlogy Restaurant is that you can even buy some of this specially imported ingredients to cook for yourself as well.
