.

.

.

It is almost one year since the last time i ate in Veg Fish Farm.

.

Situated near Lookout Point, along the stretch jln ampang-hulu langat road, this thai restaurant in the jungle is a place to look for.

.

The food there is nicely cooked, one of the best to my liking actually.

.

This time round, only 3 of us dine there. So, any difference after a year ? Nope, not at all, the food and environment are still so pleasent.

.

Lets jump to the food;

.

The lime fried chicken is something you gotta try. It has the light fragrance of lime leave when you chew it and not too dry at all (some fry chicken are like eating wood). Worth trying !

.

Next is paku vege with shrimp paste. Nothing to shout about, nicely prepared. A little diferent than those you get in chinese restaurant as they use real shrimp paste with shrimp and not belacan with dried shrimp.

.

The BBQ Lamb is so well marinated and grilled. Seriously very nice !!! Must try !!! The fragarance of lamb and its herb, with the rich taste of its marinated meat, thinking of it makes me hungry again...

.

Our thai style lime talapia came a bit too late, last dish to arrive, not a good thing as we were already 80% filled up with other dishes... Well... The meat of the fish is a symbol of freshness !!! Tender, juicy, no mud-odour... nice. The style of cooking is also mouth watering. Spicy + sour + the frgrance from the lemon grass and etc...etc... wow... so nice. Haha...

.

Mango rice was normal.

.

Also, a plus point to note, the rice they serve is thai fragrance rice, so its tecture and taste is different than our normal rice. But, its nice and slightly sticky.

.

All in all. A fantastic dining spot !!! This lunch total cost came up to about RM100.00 only. While our drinks are fresh thai fragrance coconut at RM5 each (included in the RM100).

.

Nice.

Bad food experience. . .

Not fresh crab. Can tell by the meat texture. Returned to kitchen.

Looks nice huh...

Nestum prawns i think, too sweet.

Superior soup vege, taste like salt.

Steamed Siakap teochew style. Normal.

Fried seafood rice vecimili. Normal.

Fried rice. Normal.

Fried calamari rings. This is nice !

Salted egg crab. Didn't got the guts to eat this... not fresh seafood best to be avoided.

Ho-chiean. Not good. Too dry like biscuit... or rather a piece of DVD ??
.

Been a while since i have posted new entries... Here it goes...

So... A couple of weeks ago, a few of us went food hunting again. Upon research done, we drove more than an hour and ended up dining in a chinese restaurant beside a river in Sg.Besar, Kuala Selangor. Well... Basically there is two restaurant side by side but somehow don't know why, we picked this terrible one... Restaurant name i guess is best not to be disclosed here, you may guess all you want... ;p

.

Service i would say, it is decent like any chinese restaurant.

.

Food & Taste, some are okok only, while a few, terrible.

.

Price, decent. Not VERY cheap nor expensive.

.

Will i ever dine there again ? NO WAY !!!

.

Description... View the pictures...

.

Overall, most dissapointing dining experience !

.

The end.

Thumbs up to Proton !!!

This month, Proton have launched the ever popular rumours of the new Proton Walan (Waja + Lancer). Indeed, it have turned from rumours to a fact. at 10/11/2010, Proton launched it's new line-up, The Proton Inspira, not a macho name, but a decent car i can say...
.
3 varieties can be selected, 1.8(M), 1.8(CVT) & 2.0(CVT). Forget about the 1.8(CVT) which got no flappy pedal... So its either 1.8(M) to play with or 2.0(CVT) full spec to sleep in. Price also decently affordable at RM79k to RM92k. . . Well, if no import tax then it's expensive lar... But, well... For now, its decent.
.
Well, it looks 95% identical to the Mitsubishi Lancer, with a styled with the taste of Persona front bumper, and a rear bumper with a black board stuck beneath it. Other than that, spot the change in logos everywhere and also, a Proton plastic engine cover. Other than that, the engine (4B11), body and etc..etc... is exactly the same as Lancer. How much more decent can you demand now ??? It's basically a Lancer with a Proton logo.
.
Thumbs up to Proton (not being sacarstic) for doing such a bold move !!! Bravo !!! The collateral agreement of mitsu and proton doesn't mean that Proton have no ability to produce their own model, but in another sense, this is a great move for the company as cost of R&D is hugely lower and by obtaining a secure source of technology, its a reliable car. Some may talk negative about such a move by Proton, I may say, its a smart move. If you haven't notice, most huge automotive companies also does this... Look at the Opel Frontera and Nissan Terrano, Look at Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute, Look at Opel Zafira and Chevrolet Nabira... It's an example of synergy towards higher efficiency production.
.
Good job Proton. Please continue to bring such surprise to our market !!! ;p

Overall, its quite ok, but not to say very impressive in terms of food taste and dining experience... Just ok... Ohyea, they serve better special food like abalone, clamps and big prawns as you eat more... Haha... All at a standard price of RM0.80 per stick.
