Mention BBQ Chicken Wings, and most likely the song ‘siu kai yik, ngo zhui zhong yi sek‘ sang by Stephen Chow will come to mind. Well if you don’t understand the Cantonese lyrics, it means ‘bbq chicken wings, I like to eat the most’

There’s a stall in Kepong which is quite famous within the area. Coincidentally it is located within the same food court as the Kam Heong lala I posted a while ago. The name of the stall is ‘Hung Kei’ and has been on the newspaper before (it says Hung Kei has been in the business for more than 30 years)

Anyway a pair costs RM3.80, quite reasonable right? The wings are bigger too compared to the usual. The chicken wings’ honey coated skin is grilled to perfection. So nice, so crunchy.. very recommended!

If you ever go to Kepong, you must never miss trying the Kam Heong lala there. A particular hawker stall in Kepong Baru by the name B Lui Seafood cooks very excellent Kam Heong lala. Apparently it is a very famous stall that has appeared in newspaper for its delicious crabs with the headline “Crabs so good worth taking home”.

I still remember when I first heard the term “Kam Heong” I was sceptical. I didn’t believe that lala could taste so good, how wrong was I lol. Anyway the smallest serving (shown here) costs RM15. The price has increased 20% since my last visit a year ago. The dish is served on a banana leaf placed over a sizzling hotplate. Tastes so good that the more I ate, the more I wanted. :drool:

B Lui Seafood opens from 6pm to midnight. Can’t wait to return for more!

This is an old post, I decided to republish it because of some photo issues. I believe those of you who studied/worked in Kuala Lumpur/Selangor area have seen the restaurant. Its full name is Chili’s Grill & Bar Family Restaurant. From my observation it’s always packed during evening and there are always people queuing for seats, especially in the weekends. Reason is this is a nice place to hangout after a hard day at work, lucky for those who work in Midvalley eh? They can spend every Friday evening here.. but then you gotta have that kind of money to spend.

The interior of the restaurant is lightly dimmed with orange lights, creating a soothing feeling, as though to cure heal your body, mind and soul after a long week. There are small televisions placed strategically in every corner of the restaurant providing sports entertainment.

What’s Chillis called without chilli?

Some of the drinks here are labelled with “Bottomless” in front of their names, like “Bottomless Apple Juice”. This type of drink entitles the drinker to have unlimited refills. A good choice if you plan to stay around for a long time. When we tried to order a cup only, we were told they cannot refill it if we intended to share the drink lol. So we ordered “Southwest Sling” @ RM7.95 instead, the ultimate milkshake that is made of chilled pineapple juice, orange juice and vanilla ice cream.

The restaurant is divided into areas in which each is served by a specific roster of waiters. Chilis serves mainly steaks and burgers. In norm, meals are served orderly: appetizer, main course and dessert. Triple play(3P, not the other “3P” ok :P) is an appetizer consisting buffalo wings, fried chicken and egg rolls.

The egg rolls are the best, buffalo wings is a bit spicy(prefer road side BBQ chicken wings more) while the fried chicken tastes like KFC OR chicken… There are three different types of mayonaisse for you to dip. Not sure which is for which but they all taste about the same anyway.

The main course we had was Chicken + Beef steak, Cajun style. Cajun style means its spicy. The steak wasn’t great, I have had better in F1 LOL.. the specialty of this steak is that they provide you with a 4 slices of roti prata(?) and some fillings(not sure what they were) I wasn’t sure of the correct way of eating, so the natural thing to do was to make sandwiches out of it. Tastes good for the first few bites but it tends to get old pretty soon.

Lastly was our dessert, the nicest we had for the whole night. Ironically, we also enjoyed the dessert the most when we went to TGI Friday. The dessert is actually a piece of chocolate cake topped with ice cream and nuts. Heavenly Our bill came to RM80+.

Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie - absolutely delicious.

0P now lol, we were stuffed after the meal. By the way, I heard Chili’s going to open up a branch in Penang? That’s good news indeed!

More food from Kepong to introduce~

I had Claypot Chicken Rice 砂煲鸡饭 for lunch before driving back to Penang on Monday. For Malaysians, there’s no need for introduction to this dish, anyway..

Claypot Chicken Rice is usually a dinner dish in Singapore and Malaysia. It is typically served with Chinese sausage and vegetables. More often than not, the rice is cooked in the claypot first and cooked ingredients like diced chicken and chinese sausage are added in later. Some places serve it with dark soya sauce and also dried salted fish. Salted fish, some claim, enhances the taste of the claypot chicken rice. And even where there are no long queues, given the way the dish is prepared, customers have to wait for at least 30 minutes before the dish is ready.

“Meng Kee” 明记 is located along a small lane between an abandoned building (used to be Parkson) and an old cinema in Kepong Baru. The stall is very simple, with 5-6 tables around and a zinc roof as shade. A small pot serving one costs RM4.50, while the bigger port which can serve up to two costs RM8. You can also order “Yau Choi” and soup too. We ordered Siu Bak Choi and Lotus Soup 莲藕汤. I didn’t taste nor taken any photo of the soup as it didn’t look nice. But according to Siang Leng and her family, it was really good! My loss then I guess

The “Yau Choi” 油�?� tastes good and complements the rice very well. Our bill came to RM22+, RM5+ per person with chicken rice, soup and vege.. I think that’s pretty good value for money if you ask me, especially in KL!
