Aeon Pollock Fish Fillet

On Wednesday 5.apr.2023, went to Midvalley Mall to buy a replacement toaster for the elderly because the existing toaster does not pop up the bread after it is done. Faulty mechanism so bought a new Elba toaster exactly the same as the existing one for about MYR 50 more or less.

12.48 noon - fried food counter at Aeon Supermarket Food court. Pollock fish fillet MYR 7.90, chicken thigh MYR 4.90 and tempura prawn MYR 2.90 so we bought 4 deep fried items for dinner.

Total price for 4 items: MYR 23.60 nett.

3.22 pm - size comparison.

5.35 pm - cross section. The batter is oily, thick and chewy so I ate this deep fried Pollock fish fillet with bread. The white fish is flaky and tasty but batter is too thick.

5.34 pm - I ate this cabbage as my omad before eating the fish fillet.

11.14 am - finally we get to eat brunch at Oriental Kopi midvalley mall. Signed up online to collect points since we always eat at this eatery.

*** Sunday 19.mar.2023 ***

6.13 pm - Carl's Jr limited edition smoked brisket Angus beef Burger ala carte price MYR 37.90 nett bought from 1u because 1pay contains about MYR 38 so I wanted to use up all the amount since I seldom use 1pay and so happens I walked past Carl's Jr and saw this burger which will allow me to achieve my purpose so I bought it as a takeaway.

6.14 pm - the burger is big and wrapped snugly by a paper wrapper.

The smokey taste is very nice. The Angus beef patty is juicy and the slices of smoke brisket is especially tender. I ate this burger the next day as my omad.

Bought at 2.40 pm when we were on the way to the MRT station to go home.

Now they are having this smoked brisket Angus set meal for MYR 49.90 only which is a steal. The above advert is from Carl's Jr official insta.

12.57 noon - all for me alone. The mixed berry chiffon cake MYR 10.80 nett is only available during weekend so I ordered it to try. Light berry taste with a layer of sugary crust in top. Very easy to eat.

Mocha millicrepe cake with alcohol MYR 16.50 nett but I couldn't taste the alcohol. The layers of cream in between the crepes are smooth and rich.

Iced Malacca latte MYR 13.8 nett uses gula melaka and coconut milk. The coffee taste is strong enough so it is refreshing but I don't like the taste of the coconut milk that was used. Seems to have a special additional fragrant. I took back home half portion and drank it the next day.

12.56 noon - they thought two persons are eating these two cakes so they gave me two forks.

MYR 41.10 nett for desserts.

12.54 noon - Nadeje Cafe at the Gardens Mall.

He cooked this Petai, enoki mushrooms, coriander omelette for his dinner and I ate a small portion. Very flavourful, the Coriander taste is very nice with a tinge of citrusy taste.

I ate the small Portion of food from Tuck Tuck Tei chapfan stall bought on Sunday for my omad and a small portion of this omelette.

Fish Fillet at PopCorn

On Sunday 2.apr.2023, supposed to be his duty for the Elderlies lunch and dinner but kid 1 swapped it for Sunday 23.apr.2023 because kid 1 is going on a holiday to Vietnam during that weekend so we went to Midvalley Mall.

10.51 am - I ordered this deep fried fish fillet dish and requested for no sauce so they gave me two sachets of chili sauce which I didn't use so I returned the two unopened sachets to them.

The fish fillet is thin, slippery translucent, salty and has crispy deep fried batter.

 

I think it is dory fish.

Stall 168 Hainanese Express. To exchange rice with potatoes fries top up MYR 1.50 nett so the fish fillet meal costs MYR 16.40 nett. Only cash payment is accepted.

This is the Hainanese Express stall at PopCorn food court, Midvalley Mall.

http://muntalksfood.blogspot.com/2016/07/new-set-meal.html

http://muntalksfood.blogspot.com/2015/06/everyday.html

1.12 pm - my own selection of items for Snowflake custom ice and I bought a hot ginger dessert for him.

Side view. To me, the base matcha ice has more nutty taste than matcha taste so I confirm that this ice cannot be a replacement for my favourite matcha ice.

Compared it to the custom matcha ice at Yam Fresh:

https://muntalksfood.blogspot.com/2023/03/yam-fresh-3rd-visit.html

I could have ordered this Uji'Ryo Supreme ice with lots of ingredients for MYR 27+ but I don't want so many ingredients to affect the taste. One main item that I don't want is pearls because I don't like eat them.

My custom ice selection costs MYR 29.61+ which is more than the ready matcha ice with lots of ingredients.

Select base ice. I chose Matcha Ice MYR 18.9+ and then proceed to choose the toppings.

I chose uji matcha jelly as the included premium topping and matcha balls MYR 5+ as one add-on topping.

Add on price:

Uji matcha jelly MYR 5.9+

MYR 5+ for each portion of:

Taro balls

Sesame balls

Matcha balls

Jade jelly

Grass jelly

Taro

Sweet potato 

For the 2 classic toppings, I chose red bean and peanut. Each additional classic toppings cost MYR 3.10+ for barley, pearl, peanut or red bean.

I add on a portion of matcha sorbet at MYR 5.7+ and under the same category at this MYR 5.7+ price are:

Sesame sorbet

Mango sorbet

Hojicha sorbet

Mango cubes

MYR 5+

Grass jelly sorbet

Soya sorbet

MYR 5.9+

Matcha Tea

Hospital Charges

On Friday 31.mar.2023, he went to the ward with one hard boiled egg to supplement the elderly's breakfast at around 10 am but was chased out of the ward at 10.30 am although they say one carer could be with the elderly outside of visiting hours.

Then in the evening, about 4 pm, after calling the ward, he went there again to settle loose ends and wheeled the elderly to the lobby where kid 1 was waiting in the car to pick up the elderly. He then walked to the car pack and drove his car directly home because kid 1 will settle the elderly before home eventually.

The hospital charges are affordable because it is a government hospital. A big thank you to all the diligent doctors, nurses and staff there for caring for all patients. MYR 707 nett is for 3 days 2 nights ward stay inclusive of the price of the procedure to change the pace maker. The price of the pace maker is MYR 7920 compared to MYR 6400 at end of 2012. May this pace maker last another 10 years like the previous pace maker.

2.11 pm - he brought back the remaining food from the elderly's home lunch - brown rice, deep fried fish fillet and some cabbage carrots vege dish. Added in the remaining hard boiled egg and 6 picked olives.
