Tasty Turmeric Chicken

On Tuesday 12.nov.2024, it was drizzling the whole morning so I suggested brunch at C+ coffee because a big thank you to NuxV who informed that C+ coffee has moved from their previous location next to ah Muk Sri Petaling eatery to Pinnacle condo. Starting Nov 2024, free parking is no longer available in pinnacle condo so need to pay for parking.

*** C Plus Coffee Pinnacle Sri Petaling ***

9.39 am - he ordered nasi lemak ayam kunyit aka turmeric chicken set with hot Cham MYR 21.90++

I like the turmeric chicken because it is lean meat with turmeric taste.

9.36 am - he ordered toast kaya butter set with iced Cham MYR 14.90++ The iced Cham drink is for me as I prefer iced cold drink and not hot drinks. He likes the taste of this kaya butter toast which he says taste like his childhood ngao Yao Ming bao sold by a seller on a motorcycle.

9.35 am - the two drinks which are thick and rich in taste.

10.27 am - view from our seats. C+ coffee cafe is on first floor pinnacle condo.

10.41 am - picture in the menu

10.41 am - 3 types of toasts. 

10.40 am - neat counter

10.40 am - C+ coffee at Pinnacle Condo first floor. We like the food so we will visit it again.

*** B1F1 salad atelier poke bowl ***

Shopee is selling 11 cents evoucher for Buy 1 Free 1 Poke Bowl salad atelier at certain time in a day so I bought one evoucher and went to redeem it after brunch at C+ coffee because salad atelier Sri Petaling opens at 10.30 am and it was 10.40 am when we completed our meal at C+ coffee.

11.33 am - I brought two containers from home to store the two poke bowls. I selected the same poke bowl for both: grilled salmon poke bowl MYR 29.80 for each bowl so b1f1 promo means I just pay MYR 29.80 nett for two bowls which is a very good price 👍 😊 

Grilled salmon poke has:

1. Grilled salmon

2. Cucumber 

3. Scrambled eggs with sweet fragrant butter so I warned him not to eat these scrambled eggs

4. Canned pineapples so they are sweet due to the syrup in the cans

5. Edamame 

6. Nori 

7. Salsa which is raw onions

8. Black vinegar onion dressings packed separately in small containers which I returned to them because I have vinegar in my fridge

9. I requested for salad leaves as the base and not the rice 

So we ate one bowl each when we reached home. Refreshingly tasty. 😋 

11.14 am - good price of MYR 29.80 nett for two.

11.14 am - please click on the above poke bowl for a larger image to read the text. 

The lower priced poke bowl is the free bowl if the prices of the two poke bowls selected are different.

*** Clear Fridge Food ***

1.34 pm - I ate the remaining 3 steamed Cassava bought on Saturday 3 days ago.

Morning 43.80

Best Beef Shanks

On Monday 11.nov.2024, he wanted to go to a far away eatery called Makan Time at Kota Damansara for authentic cendol and he said to take feeder buses and MRT there so I woke up early.

He said after Makan Time we can go to 1u to eat deep fried pork ribs nasi lemak at Lax Lax 1u and so we did that too until I was so full that I couldn't stand up straight because my stomach is stretched out too much and standing upright is very painful for my tummy.

*** Makan Time

9.08 am - very tasty beef shanks that melt in the mouth 😋 the soup has a bit of smokey spices with daun sup. MYR 12 nett. I drank all the beef soup.

8.55 am - roti kahwin kaya butter MYR 5.50 nett and hot coffee MYR 5.20 nett. I didn't drink the coffee because I drank all the beef soup. The kaya is made from duck egg so is more flavourful. The bread is crispy outside and soft inside.

8.57 am - my cendol MYR 7 nett which he recommends to me.

8.57 am - size comparison 

9 am - I ordered this noodle dish because it is the daily special dish. Name is Burmese mohingar MYR 16 nett. Tasty flavourful soup which I also drank almost all of it.

Wiki says and I quote:

"Mohinga is fish soup made with rice noodles, typically served as a hearty breakfast. It features a rich broth flavored with lemongrass, turmeric, and fish sauce, often garnished with boiled eggs, cilantro, and crispy fritters."

9.08 am - nasi kerabu kerutuk ayam MYR 19 nett. He let me eat a big portion of the tender chicken and half of the rice and salted egg.

9.27 am - his cendol MYR 7 nett. He likes the taste of this cendol a lot. He says the green cendol is like smaller soft lau shu fen and tastes like kuih talam with pandan, no bitter taste. The gula melaka has coconut taste with no sourish taste. This shop makes their own cendol so it gets sold out very quickly daily.

9.09 am - very flavourful  soup with lots of noodles that are similar to mi Xian. I drank almost all the soup.

9.46 am - total MYR 71.70 nett

8.53 am - interior 

8.49 am - shopfront with lots of greenery 

6.47 am - early on feeder bus so not many people 

*** Lax Lax eatery 1u ***

1.15 pm - cendol again. An add on mini bowl MYR 6++

Foc free flow of hot green tea for him and cold green tea for me

1.16 pm - most popular nasi lemak deep fried pork ribs with deep fried curry leaves MYR 26++

He was curious to try this deep fried pork ribs. Crunchy flavourful pork ribs. A bit oily which is to be expected.

1.18 pm - a plate of 5 pork satay is MYR 24++ but I am very full so we just ordered per stick at MYR 5.50++ to try. I say one stick he says two so he ate 1.75 sticks cos I can only manage to taste 0.25 stick. I like the taste and the tender lean satay pork. The peanut dip is tasty too but I couldn't eat much so just tried a bit of the dip.

1.52 pm - total MYR 49.90 nett.

1.56 pm - shopfront 

1.34 pm - my portion. After I ate this plate of food, I couldn't stand up straight because of tummy muscles pain due to the muscles being stretched too much. I managed to meditate and got myself home safely in pain 😂 🤣 via mrt and feeder bus. I didn't eat any pain meds, totally no meds at all and after the food has digested, the pain went away on its own. When will I learn that I can only eat a small portion of food daily 😂 

Very tasty food for this day.

Only issue is my tummy is trained to be too small to accommodate all the food 😂 so I have to endure the pain 

Morning 42.90

Next morning 43.80

Note: both of us wore masks and two 30+ men stood up and offer their seats on the mrt to us on the way to kd early morning. Oh dear, we have reached that age where people automatically offer their seats to us. To be courteous we thanked them and didn't refuse the seats as not to embarrassed their good intentions.

I have read that young people in some countries refused to offer their seats even when the elderlies asked them for their seats. I guess these young people must be very tired from working hard the whole day. Luckily the young people in kl still very courteous and strong 💪

Mix Match Rice Mi

On Sunday 10.nov.2024, he chose to eat brunch at Good Taste Taman Desa because it opens early at 8 am. I wanted to eat lunch at Mr. Wu Taman Desa but it only opens at 11 am which is late for him as he wants to eat brunch around 8 am.

*** Good Taste Taman Desa ***

*** Tea Garden Tasik Damai ***

8.56 am - 5 pieces of steamed Cassava aka ubi kayu MYR 9.90++ and I brought home 3 in my container. By default the santan and gula melaka syrup are in their own separate little jugs.

On Thursday 7.nov.2024, went to midvalley mall because I want to eat the apple pie that PH says is not sweet from Yin's Sourdough.

*** Yin's Sourdough Cafe ***

11.31 am - Apple pie MYR 14.05++ with some cubes of apple already eaten. 😋 He ate a bit of this apple pie and he could detect butter in the pie pastry crust because he is very sensitive to butter. The cinnamon taste is enough for us.

11.28 am - The apple pie MYR 14.05++ is not sweet when compared to the sweet orange zest butter cake MYR 8.01++. The iced black is refreshing.

11.30 am - I also ordered prawns sweet sour glass noodles mango salad MYR 38++ and a glass of iced black MYR 10++. The glass noodles stuck together into a cake and I am fine with it though I would think some people would prefer them not to be in a cake form.
