D Best Briyani Rice

Mutton Briyani Rice - MYR15+ (MYR15.90) - with plain Lassi (Yogurt drink) without salt and without sugar so it was quite sour and I like it that way - MYR6 ++ 6% service charge = MYR6.35 with curry gravy and yogurt chutney (I think). 

I thought Fierce Briyani is the best until my friend brought me here to taste this briyani rice. The rice is so very soft and fluffy that I thought I was eating thick broken mee hoon (rice vermicelli). I was so impressed that I brought my eating group to eat here too.

I requested for the mutton curry to be not so spicy. The mutton is soft and tender, just delicious! My friend ordered the prawn briyani and I don't think it is as good as the mutton's because the prawns were a bit too salty and the texture is a bit too firm. Best stick to mutton briyani.

Our bill Tot MYR62.55 - The prawn Briyani costs MYR18+

Happy Mother's Day!

This weekend is Mother's Day weekend so here's wishing all mothers, a very Happy Mother's Day!

For those mothers with very young children, the father should celebrate mother's day for the wife so that the children can learn by example and show their appreciation for their mother. I have heard some husbands who say my wife is not my mother, why should I celebrate mother's day for her. This is so, so wrong. No wonder some children do not treat their mothers with respect and show appreciation. It is because their father did not show them a good example.

Rojak with sauce served separately (MYR5.30) and Banana Leaf rice with fried chicken served on a plate pretending to be a piece of banana leaf (MYR6.70).

Roti canai (Roti Prata to some) MYR1.9 and Teh Tarik MYR2.10 for brunch

This De Iffran outlet is at Ikano and they have outlets in many shopping malls such as One Utama, Paradigm Mall to name a few.

Just MYR16 if you don't want to pay more for food at restaurants at a shopping mall but don't mind paying a bit more for food that is much cheaper when eaten at roadside stalls.

Mango chutney

I like to eat banana leaf rice (MYR7.50) and when I read about the tasty mango chutney at this place, I had to go and eat it. The mango chutney is right next to the curry gravy on top of the rice. The skin is still on the mango and I ate it as well. Taste quite like the pickled mango skin I used to eat when I was a little girl but sweeter and I can detect a slight glue taste to it so I did not quite like it as I thought I would.

Mutton curry - MYR10

Papadam and deep fried gourd - part of the banana rice meal

Deep fried gourd up close.

Nasi Lemak fried chicken - MYR6.60

Mango Lassi - MYR6.20 - sweet and I can taste lychee syrup - so strange

We did not sit upstairs where air-cond is available

This is the popular place due to the affordable price

No service charge but GST = yes.

The MYR2.50 is for iced Nescafe coffee. 3 of us ate banana leaf rice so that accounts for the MYR22.50 shown in the receipt above.

Egg pancake?

Roti telur or roti prata with egg - MYR2.20 - I sometimes eat it like how I eat bread - just roll it up like the photo above and eat it without any gravy or sauce so that I can eat it at my seat at work while still typing on the keyboard. Filling and with no mess.

Fiercer

I have read many posts about Fierce Curry House but did not have an opportunity to go there at Bangsar Utama. So when I happen to be in Publika, I seize the chance to eat at their outlet named Fiercer.

Complimentary Papadam

Drinks - Mango Lassi MYR7, Plain Lassi MYR6, Nescafe Iced Coffee MYR3.5, Teh O MYR2.5 and I like the plain lassi and think the mango lassi is a little bit on the sweet side. It tastes nicer when I drank both lassi together.

We ordered two sets of Mutton Biryani (MYR22 each), one set of Chicken Biryani (MYR20) and one set of Fish Biryani (MYR20).

I just took one photo of the mutton biryani when the cover is take off. The long grain basmati rice is very nicely cooked - soft but firmly retaining its long individual grain. This Hyderabadi Biryani tastes very good with all the spices used and the mutton inside is very tender. As I am a small eater the portion is too much for me and I have to let others finish it up for me.

I would prefer it to be a little less salty but when eaten together with the accompanying raita (condiment made with yogurt), curry and acar (pickled vegetables), the taste does not seem to be salty. So in summary, I can say that I am glad that I finally get to eat this famous biryani dish. With 10% service charge (no government tax), the total bill came to MYR113.30 for four persons, very reasonable for a meal of this quality.
