    KY eats – Subang’s Hidden Gem – Amachi’s Appam & Masala Tea at SS17 (weekends only)

    appam with eggs & coconut sambal, mutton curry

    Several weeks ago Jean told me we’d be going to SS17 at Subang Jaya for breakfast. For someone who spent some of his college years in Subang area, I don’t remember SS17 having a lot of commercial areas, but if

    KY eats – Kay’s Steak & Lobster (and Beef Wellington), USJ Heights

    Kane, KY, Jane, Jean, we had a great day!

    If I have to pick only one word to describe our visit to Kay’s Steak & Lobster at USJ Heights, it’ll probably be opulence. As the name suggests, Kay’s Steak and Lobster is a restaurant that has live lobster and

    prawns, cockles, chives, chinese sausage, bean sprouts, everything

    A good plate of char kuih teow is not an easy dish to find in Klang Valley, especially if you’re used to the quality in Penang. However, the prevalence and demand of Penang hawker dishes meant that many of them

    KY eats – Famous Rojak Truck at SS15 Subang Jaya, now in a shop at Subang Square

    the same crispiness and flavor

    Rojak in Klang Valley is a term that is a bit confusing if you’re from Penang. For us, rojak is always a term reserved to that awesome street food with cut fruits in “rojak sauce” that’s made of prawn paste,

    The Pig & Cow, Bacon Madness

    Every once in a while, it’s good to get your hands greasy and enjoy a sumptuous, thick stack of mostly not-so-healthy stack of the quintessential American dish – the burger. With a obscene ratio of carb, protein, fat, and trace

    Ngau Hor, or Cantonese style fried beef noodle, isn’t exactly a dish that is offered in many places. Truth be told, I can’t say that I’ve tried many ngau hor in my life, but if you ask me which one

Popular for their mee hun kueh with fried egg but we also really enjoyed the fried meeting with mantis prawns and their hokkien mee that comes with bits of pork lard. Mom was happy.
