Below are 4 of my lunches eaten here:
Tofu, carrot, potato, petola taken from soup, a slice of fish (not sure what fish this is), broccoli and rice - MYR7.50 - the taste is good enough for me.
Broccoli, Chinese Spinach (Stir fried), sardine in tomato sauce and rice - MYR5.70 - keeps hunger at bay.
Same as the above but with a slighter bigger piece of sardine - MYR5.70 - I am pleased that they charged me the same price as the previous time when I selected the same dishes. I like consistency.
A slice of deep fried fish (nice because it is not salty when this type of deep fried fish is usually salty due to the batter used), stir fried bitter gourd and stir fried french beans, rice - MYR 7.5 - because this slice of fish is bigger than the ones I took before.
This is the eatery located at Phileo Damansara 1. Prices are nett.
wow! nice lunches! look delicious! I'd definitely pick the 1st one :)
ReplyDeleteAh, let me guess, because of the tofu? :)
DeleteIf I go economy rice, I'll take the bittergourd and tofu with some curry to drench my rice. I need my rice to be wet, flooded even :D
ReplyDeleteNo meat or fish for you?
DeleteGreens and fish, very healthy food
ReplyDeleteGood enough! :)
DeleteI remember a place that sells good chap farn too when I was working there previously.. Happy Chef? Oohhh just to let you know my previous office was at CP Tower, so we always walk to Phileo for lunch..
ReplyDeleteWah, your memory is so good. The next post is for you then. :)
DeleteLooks great but the economy rice isn't all that economical...and that's generally the case everywhere, but maybe in the region of RM5-RM6 usually, here.
ReplyDeleteDue to the price of raw food that has increased too, I guess.
DeleteHuh? Nasi kandar place selling broccoli and bitter gourd? This is so very awesome!
ReplyDeleteSometimes, I will order a plate of chicken rice (or siew yoke rice), and then top up veges at the zhap farn stall and pay for the veges separately. Cost more than usual, but, that's the price to pay if want a balanced meal :)
Is this place considered a nasi kandar place? I find the spread of food very different from those served by the famous nasi kandar kayu.
Deletewow, your colleagues have the chicken rice everytime they go to this place?? ah, makes me wanna see how the chicken rice looks like that it kind of casts spell on them, haha.. :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha, I have not eaten the chicken rice before so no photos, sorry.
Deletehmmm so it's in a shophouse and I think the economy rice and chicken rice are both under the same boss?? probably can have the chicken rice and tambah the veggie from the economy rice section?? haha, how ideal I'm thinking :p
ReplyDeleteYes, same boss. Yes you can do that too but will be expensive like what Realgunners has mentioned above.
Deletebut true also.. I think I can have the economy rice everyday but not the chicken rice, just like you.. I'm more to the variety kind of person I would say.. :)
ReplyDeleteWhere do you usually eat for lunch during work days? Do you bring your own food from home?
DeleteAll contain 2 vegs and 1 meat. :)
ReplyDeleteI am scared that if I take more than that will be very expensive - exponential costs, hehehe.
DeleteWell I'm even stingier... usually 1 veg 1 meat haha.
DeleteI think if 1 veg and 1 meat, the price is not as "dai" as 2 veg and 1 meat - hahaha, I am more calculative than you.
DeleteYou know, Mun... something in common with you... the portions here suit me.. more vege and less rice! Like!
ReplyDeleteWe are small eaters, cannot eat so much rice, right?
DeleteI love economy rice too because I want to have balance nutrition. However nowadays economy rice is no longer cheap!
ReplyDeleteBut it is still cheaper than most food unless you want to include plain white bread in a loaf.
DeleteI see that you love broccoli!
ReplyDeleteYou are right! :D
DeleteI recognized this shop and think I have been there too because my wife sometimes conducted her hypnotherapy at the centre there at Phileo. I didn't know their chicken rice is good but I would prefer to eat more vegies like you. I had to google to find out what was Petola! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have walked past The London College of Clinical Hypnosis before. So that's the centre?
DeleteHahaha, actually you cannot see the petola in photo 1. They were hidden underneath the tofu and potatoes.
Oh! I thought my eyes had problems as I could not see the Petola earlier! Wakakaka
DeleteThat Hypnosis Centre conduct all their training classes at the School of Medicine in University Malaya. Sometimes they have patients coming for hypnotherapy help and my wife is the only one who could speak Mandarin to help some referred cases at that centre.
Hahaha, no nothing wrong with your eyes. Your wife is really a super woman, can make moon cakes, do hypnotherapy and can even speak Mandarin. You are one lucky man to have married her. :)
DeletePrices seemed so reasonable! Don't think you can buy at this kind of prices in SG.......
ReplyDeleteYes, quite reasonable when compared with all the eateries in this area.
Deleteso u working somewhere in Phileo Damansara1? tht place mostly halal food also rite? the fish and veggie looks ok to me..suit my tastebud too..
ReplyDeleteFor a project (short term only), yes. There are a few non-halal food eateries too but more halal ones. Good to hear you can eat these kind of food, some of my friends can't because not used to them, they prefer just the chicken rice.
DeleteThe way you've economy rice same as me, I always take two vege and one meat (guess that's consider quite balance, right?)
ReplyDeleteYes, 2 veges and 1 meat should be quite balanced.
