It is not easy to find a good nasi lemak. Personally I love nasi lemak with lots of spicy sambal. If possible, spicy sambals with onions. And of course a nice juicy chicken thigh to go with it.

I’ve heard that the nasi lemak at Village Park Restaurant is one of the best nasi lemak in Petaling Jaya. So I had to come and try it. If you are quite fussy with your food, you may queue up with the rest of the people at the counter to choose your nasi lemak accompaniment.

I chosed a piece of seasoned fried chicken and sambal prawns. The price for this palate is RM10.30. Quite expensive if you asked me.

Other items such as Hard Boiled Eggs are available too. There are sold for RM1.80 for two eggs. All you need to do is just to crack them up and there you have it. If things gets messy, you can always wash your hands at the newly build washing area located just outside of the restaurant.

I heard from a friend that there is a shop selling Sarawak Kolo Mee in Bandar Kinrara, Puchong. So, we went there to try it out, hoping that we can find the true Sarawak Kolo Mee in Peninsula Malaysia.

True enough, my friend was right. The ingredient, the color, and most important of all the taste is very similar to the ones we had tried in Kuching, Sarawak. Served with pieces of roasted pork, vegetables, minced meat and the “reddish colour” of the mee, it does resembles the authentic Sarawak Kolo Mee. Even its red chilis was pickled to taste the same as the ones sold in Kuching.

You can choose either to have a large plate for only RM4.30, a normal size plate for RM3.00 or a small plate without any ingredients for only RM2.00. I guess the latter would be without the roasted pork and the minced meat.

Rakuzen is currently the only Japanese restaurant in Desa Park City. The beautifully decorated Rakuzen even has their own shop selling Japanese foodstuffs and drinks.

We ordered a sushi set which comes together with a cup of chawanmushi, tamago, fruits, fried chicken, a row of sushi and a bowl of miso soup. Although here it looks quite little, but it was actually quite filing.

If you are looking for a place to “berbuka puasa” or a decent place to dine, here’s the place to be - Serai Thai Restaurant. A Thai food restaurant which is located in Seksyen 3, Shah Alam.

Each customers were served with titbits and dates while waiting for their orders to be prepared. Although the dates are not “photogenic” but they are sweet.

Then came my all-time favourite vegetable, brinjals or eggplants fried with belacan. I just love this dish. Not only because I am a huge fan of brinjals, but its the Serai Thai’s belacan that makes the difference. It is priced at RM10.
