Pancake House Introduce  - NASI LEMAK PANCAKE


Pancake House Branch - Mid Valley Quill City Mall IOI City Mall Putrajaya

NASI LEMAK is Malaysian favourite breakfast meal and for some of us, it can also be an anytime meal. I believe most Malaysian will vouch for Nasi Lemak for their version of the best Nasi Lemak recipe or their best stall to have this dish.

Pancake House Nasi Lemak Pancake Promotion

In conjunction with the celebration of Merdeka Day and Malaysia Day 2018, Pancake House is offering its' very own Nasi Lemak Pancake. As Pancake House is famous for its pancake - making a Nasi Lemak rendition from the pancake is an expected deal from them.

Pancake House Menu - Nasi Lemak Set

Here at Pancake House, you can enjoy their Pancake House version of Nasi Lemak; which is using pancake as the base instead of the famed coconut milk rice. Available at all the Pancake House branch, you can now enjoy this Nasi Lemak dish via an a la carte order or as a set which comes with specially concocted Nasi Lemak Shake.

Pancake House Menu - Nasi Lemak Set  With 2 Pieces of Fried Chicken and Pandan Flavoured Pancake
Serving of the Nasi Lemak Pancake is 2 pieces of pandan flavoured pancake which is sandwiched by pieces of freshly sliced cucumber with their very own concocted sambal offering which has a sweeter undertone.

Packed at the sides are a generous serving of fried anchovies and fried ground nuts with 2 pieces of Pancake House Fried Crispy Chicken and a sunny side up to complete this rendition.

To complement the Nasi Lemak Pancake is the Nasi Lemak Shake; which is another classic concoction that is derived from the Nasi Lemak ingredients. The bottom layer of this shake is a pandan syrup while the upper layer is a blending of coconut milk with crush ground nuts, anchovies and chillies which makes this drink a savoury drink. The drink is then topped with fried anchovies and fried groundnut.

As many will attest to; the science subject is not one that has created a lot of interest in of late. Many find science subject as too complex and difficult to understand. BBC - British Broadcasting Corporation has decided to instil some fun into the learning of science with the engagement of Mr Harith Iskander as its host for this new GOT SCIENCE? program.

What better way to engage the young audience with some fun into the learning of this science subject. Hosted by Mr Harith Iskander, Malaysia's Godfather of comedy and winner of Laugh Factory's "Funniest Person In The World 2016", Got Science? explores and explains the science of everyday life, using reason, logic, rationale and science. The eight-episode series will explore themes of food, health, fitness, sports, anatomy and technology.


The program will be fast-paced and packed with information, debunking myths, decoding trends and technology. Harith threads these stories together in his inimitable light, tongue-in-cheek style through his running commentary and funny one-liners. Popular myths like consuming durians and that alcohol will kill you, and MSG is bad for you are just some of the topics that will be covered in the series.

"BBC Earth is home to BBC's world-renowned natural history, science and adventure content. We wanted to do something fast-paced, fun and informative that would be specifically relevant to our audiences in Asia. Got Science? fits the bill. The series explores science around everyday things we see on the Internet to things our mothers told us, like don't' drink alcohol after eating Durian, all told by Harith in his signature comedic style. I am very excited to see people's reaction to the show when it airs on September 11" said Ryan Shiotani, VP, Content, Asia, BBC Studios.


Speaking at the events, Mr Harith Iskander said that " Science was never his favourite subject in school". "So initially I was quite apprehensive when BBC approached me to host Got Science?. I never quite understood the complex scientific theories and formulae the teachers rattled on about in school. I realise now that it wasn't interesting to me because it wasn't relevant to my daily life. Got Science? approaches science in a way that is fresh, fun and accessible. I hope that viewers will enjoy it and have many light bulb moments as I did".


Got Science? will premiere on BBC Earth on Tuesday 11 September 2018 at 8.05pm and will be available on BBC player at the same time.

For fans of HotPot Kitchen; there is no further introduction on how to enjoy this meals. But for those that are not so familiar; HotPot Kitchen is a very straightforward dining experience. You really get to choose only items that you really like to eat - much like a buffet steamboat.

HotPot Kitchen How To Order Review

There is only 2 section to choose from. First, you pick up a stainless bowl and head towards the vegetable section. 

HotPot Kitchen Vegetables section

here are wide varieties to choose from starting with the green leafy vegetables like spinach, ladies fingers, cabbages and so forth.

HotPot Kitchen Vegetables section

or the other vegetable section which includes the smooth tofu, fungus, mushroom, bean curd and many more.

HotPot Kitchen Meat Selection

Using a different meat bowl, you then select your meat ingredients like the Chicken meat, beef slices or the different type of meatballs.

HotPot Kitchen Meat Selection - Pork Innards

or for me, my favourite is the pork innards like the intestine (which the Chef will fry to a crisp), pork stomach and so forth. It does really blend with the spicy option. All the meat are priced at RM5.99 per 100 gram.

HotPot Kitchen - Spicy Fragrant Taste

For me, I am just good with Level 1 Spicy Fragrant level. If you accidentally bite into the Sichuan peppercorns, there is a unique numbing effect on your tongue, I suppose this is one of the reasons why so many people yearn for these HotPot dishes is to experience this effect.

HotPot Kitchen - Drinks Selection

You can order your drinks at this point. Upon confirming your orders you will be given an electronic buzzer that will buzz when your food is ready.

or the Arasi La La which has its own distinctly spicy taste.

HotPot Kitchen Menu - Free Coffee

Don't forget at HotPot Kitchen coffee is Complimentary; it is said that drinking coffee after a HotPot meals serves to relieve the spiciness level in your mouth.

 Moon Cake 2018 & Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu @ SUMMER PALACE RESTAURANT Marriott Putrajaya Hotel


Marriott Putrajaya Hotel Summer Palace Restaurant Mooncakes Mid Autumn 2018

During our Staycation recently at Marriott Putrajaya Hotel, we had our lunch at the Summer Palace Restaurant which has a special Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu at RM88.00 per person. We decided to try this crafted lunch menu set by Chef Dixon Lai.

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Deep Fried Salmon Fish Skin With Salted Egg Yolk

The Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu started with a Deep Fried Salmon Fish Skin With Salted Egg Yolk. The Salmon Fish skin is fried to a crunchy crisp with a well smothered salted egg yolk into every inch of the crispy fish skin, we just can't stop taking one piece after another.

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Marinated Japanese Cucumber With Minced Garlic

The second starter is a cold starter which is the Marinated Japanese Cucumber With Minced Garlic. The chef has added a special peppercorn that has a tongue-numbing sensation after we bite into it. The Zucchini has a nice crunch bite while the black fungus slippery texture makes them ideal complimentary ingredients.

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Braised Hot & Sour Szechuan Soup With Prawn Dumpling

Next on the menu is the Braised Hot & Sour Szechuan Soup With Prawn Dumpling. Being a Szechuan dish, you can expect a nice sourish spicy taste to this soup. The prawn dumpling was simply marvellous as each bite into the prawn filling which was sandwich into the dumpling skin was superb. It is indeed a nice change instead of the familiar Wanton soup based.

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Dim Sum Combo

The next dish came in a bamboo basket which is a Dim Sum Combination of four exquisite Dim Sum dishes. In it, you can see what look like a goldfish Dim Sum which essentially is the Steamed Seafood Dumpling With Japanese Dumpling while the other one is the Steamed Squid Ink Prawns Dumpling with Black Truffle Oil.

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Deep Fried Chicken Siew Mai With Teppanyaki Sauce and Fish Roe

The next Dim Sum is the Deep Fried Chicken Siew Mai With Teppanyaki Sauce and Fish Roe


Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Deep Fried Crispy Beancurd Roll With Prawns & Cheese

This is the followed by Summer Palace speciality vegetable dish which is Stir Fried Hong Kong Kai Lan in Two Different Style 

Summer Palace Dim Sum Set Lunch Menu - Wok Fried Flat Noodles & Crispy Vermicelli With Seafood & Egg Sauce

And finally, the dish that will fill your tummy is the Wok Fried Flat Noodles & Crispy Flat Noodles With Seafood & Egg Sauce.  Conventionally this Cantonese Yin Yeong is using the Fried Vermicelli but Chef Dixon uses the Flat Noodles which is the crispy portion of this dish. It is something out of the norm but it does taste nice.



For Dessert, we had the Baked Lemon Cheese Tarts to end our meal.

Marriott Putrajaya Hotel Moon cake 2018 Flavours

and finally the most special of all is the Summer Palace Golden Bean With Black Sesame In Gold Dust Moon Cake.
