sate celup @ big three restaurant

Free Photo Hosting - Photolava.com
raw food in sticks- kangkung is my fav!

craving for sate celup is a bad thing especially when you're living nowhere near the famous capitol sate celup @ malacca! but don't fret, if malacca can't come to you... you can always go to subang, ss15 to be exact to satisfy those sudden cravings!

to be honest, we didn't know of the existence of this place until we tried googling and this website pops up. well, no harm trying plus its at a familiar territory!

appetizers- mini mantou burgers

we were greeted and served by the lady boss. according to the lady boss, the eatery place has just opened for about one and 1/2 months. we were the first customers there that night. we were served three appetizers which were on the house as calvin had sms'ed to enquire bout this place. the food taste very homely, something that my mom, your mom, and everyone else's mom can whip up.

refridgerator storing the sate sticks

there are a few promotions at the moment-
1. 10% for all customers
2. 15% for students
3. 50% for 5th customer

we took on the rm19.90 all you can eat buffet with additional 10% disc. considering that each stick costs rm1, the buffet deal is worth it provided you can eat at least 20 sticks!

sate celup sauce- rm1 per pax

the variety of food is not many, at least not as many when compared to the famous capitol sate celup @ malacca. very normal kinda variety as well, fishballs, prawns, cuttlefish, squid balls, etc. my absolute favourite is of course the kangkung! we also like the jelly fish and mushrooms. other than that, the selection is pretty blahhhh.

sate celup celup celup!

to be honest, i must admit it is not easy when everyone compares you to the sate celups in malacca. but i suppose it's a good effort and at least there's a place we can go to when we're having our sudden cravings for sate celup in kl!

breakfast at petaling street

hon kee famous porridge since 1959

almost anyone and everyone who has had walked along the famous petaling street would know the existance of hon kee, a humble little stall that serves smooth silky porridge worth boasting about.

'sang yu' in piping hot porridge

you see, what makes hon kee more extraordinary than the usual porridge stalls you find littering every nook and cranny of food courts and wherenots is the raw fish it serves alongside with piping hot porridge! it's alittle bit like having yee sang/sashimi. being cautious eaters, we decided to be safe by dipping the raw slices of fish into our porridge and making sure that they're cooked thoroughly before consuming, but i've seen the older generation eating 'em raw, sashimi style! so, it's really up to you how you wanna savour the catch of the day...

with extra raw egg


with extra crunchy fried intestines

these fried little things make the whole breakfast experience more worthwhile and satisfying. so yumm (jen pls don't barf, u can skip this part ;-p) that i requested to ta pau a pack as snacks (rm5, not cheap as snacks)! i know it's sinful... but it's too sinful to say nooooooooooo...!

chee cheong fun in onion oil and loadsa sesame- rm3

one of the most plain but most awesome ccf i've had in kl. to be honest, the ccf deserves to have the same limelight and fame and be mentioned in the same breath as the porridge. i like my ccf plain like this, no curry/sweet sauce/foreign alien gravy. its so le yum that i ta pau a pack for lunch the next day at office, topped with sinful crunchy intestines... soooooo good that the whole morning i was looking forward for lunch!

bbq bacon strips- rm9 (100gm)

when one is inarguably a carnivorous, one will never be able to resist the sight and smell of this (pic above)! to buy or not to buy.... TO BUY OF COS! eat it as a snack or sandwich it with bread, it's finger lickin' good! an expensive and fattening snack though, but these two words are non-existent in my gastronomic dictionary!

cheers to good food and more!
