Nyonya Lab

My online friend since 2009 ordered these 30 pieces of kuihs in a special tiffin from Nyonyalab as a gift to me because she knows I like to eat kuihs 😋😋😋. Thank you so much Jennifer.

The kuihs are tasty with strong coconut taste and milk for bingka ubi and corn kuih; authentic red bean and glutinous dark rice in red bean kuih; authentic mung bean fillings in yellow angku and green pandan angku and genuine cassava/ubi kayu taste in tricolour sago ubi. The mochi has red bean fillings and the mochi skin is very QQ and translucent. I love to eat rose sago and this rose sago has a firmer texture than what I am used to eating and it is packed with sago. 8 types of kuih in total.

So for today, we have eaten 15 pieces and the remaining 15 pieces will be eaten over the next few days.

Useful and pretty tiffin. I will think of you, Jennifer when I use this tiffin carrier to buy food.

Lunch shared by two pax of beef balls noodles from Yang Kee, OUG at MYR 9 nett bought on Sunday.

Red bean kuih - not that sweet with nice red bean and coconut taste so is delicious!

This kuih is ubi kayu kuih with a bit of sago so I can taste the cassava aka tapioca aka ubi kayu in it.

Peach Jelly

Lovely top view.

Side view. I like to eat Libby's can peaches so I chose peach Jelly. Refreshing and nice but a bit on the sweet side and didn't give the satisfying feel of eating nian gao so I don't think I will buy this jelly again.

Expired in Aug so have to finish eating it.

*** Monday 19 Oct 2020 d216 ***

My portion of 3 jc meehoon with one added egg for lunch.

Lunch - shared 3jc Mee Hoon soup.

Finished all 5 berangan bananas between the two of us as breakfast.

Finished up nian gao during teatime.

Not my dinner of all remaining lotus root soup and half rice.

Two Beef Eateries

7.48 am - 3jc Mee Hoon from the previous day takeaway at Choy Kee. Added 2 hard boiled eggs. Shared by 2 pax.


8.30 am - my portion. Quite salty so I ate one berangan banana after eating it.


12.53 noon - fried chicken with Nasi kukus (steamed rice) from warisan Nasi kukus at MYR 8.90 nett. I asked for no sambal and no curry. The acar is hidden underneath the rice.


1.30 noon - my portion. The chicken is fresh. The acar cucumber and onion is sourish sweet so they are appetising. The anchovies and peanuts are caramelised versions so they are on the sweet side.


Finally, I found the stomach space to eat this BK cheese burger from the king box bought on the previous Sunday so it has been sitting in the fridge for one whole week.


As expected, it was kind of dry.


1.40 pm - cross section - dry but still tasty.


Bought this bottle of herbal tea at MYR 5 nett from Fah Lian herbs shop in OUG.


4.58 pm - dry Lai fun beef noodle with gravy, tripe, tendon, beef slices at MYR 9.50 nett and 3 beef balls, 3 tendon balls bought from Niu Niu beef eatery in OUG. Add-on balls  at MYR 1 each. Two to share. Also bought a pack of pork Mee Hoon at MYR 7 nett for the next day's meals.


7 pm - my portion. The Lai fun is soft so I like it and the peanuts and the bit of salted vege.

I also bought takeaway from Yang kee beef eatery for the next day's meals. Radish beef stew at MYR 11 nett and beef balls noodles at MYR 9 nett. Sunday 18 Oct 2020 d215 meals are completed.

Early Rice

8.30 am - breakfast for two pax. Lotus root soup and rice are bought on the previous day. Home cooked fish with ginger and kailan. 

Tasty but the fish is a bit too salty. I suspect the fish was stored in brine immediately after being caught to keep them fresh. The fish meat is tender in large flakes.

3 x 150g of cod fish bought from Jake's Family Farm in Penang. I contacted them back in April because I didn't know that they are not in KL. Just recently they informed me that they are delivering some goods to kl and asked me whether I would like to order anything so I ordered these fish in packs with the intention to give two away and some vege.

Cooked all of them for one meal because we are afraid that they may have gotten hot during the journey and wouldn't last long and we didn't want to put them into the freezer. We also don't dare to give them away without knowing whether or not they taste ok.

Le Venue Block Menue sells them online.

1.30 pm - Bought snacks from two different nearby shop and stall. Deep fried ham chim orange, red bean pastry, kap chung, ma keok, and yam puff in two sets. Red bean and mung bean tong sui. Takeaway at about MYR 23. Gave one set away.

At another stall, two deep fried nian gao, one deep fried banana and one cekodok pisang at a total of MYR 6. We shared them. I really enjoyed eating them although they are unhealthy snacks.

6.30 pm - shared the seafood Mee hoon from Choy Kee at MYR 8 bought the previous day for dinner.

Weather is hot and I have not eaten any shaved ice since 18 March so I put the ming bean tong sui into the freezer and ate icy mung bean tong sui at 8.30 pm. Was supposed to eat half only but ended up finishing it because ice is so easy and refreshing to eat.

A bunch of 17 bananas cost MYR 13. Ate two bananas throughout the day to get potassium to counter the salt that we have eaten on this day Saturday 17 October 2020 d214. This day shall be remembered for the most high priced home cooked single dish was eaten on this day very early in the morning.

Salt Overdose

Yesterday Friday 16 October 2020 d213, we went out to takeaway food and I did it again. I bought too much food because I felt sad seeing the stalls having not much orders.

The above seafood noodles are our favourite seafood Mee Hoon from Choy Kee coffee shop. I bought two packs at MYR 8 nett each. Shared one for breakfast and kept one for the next day. Now they include one piece of fish paste (yu wat) which has too much pepper in the yu wat.

I also bought a pack of hot hainan tea which is actually coffee mix with tea for MYR 2.60 nett. That pack is enough for two cups.


I noticed a new ccf stall so I bought ccf too. One piece of ccf MYR 1, 3 ytf - okra, bitter gourd, brinjal at MYR 1.50 each and one piece of ytf bentong tofu puff which is supposed to be very popular so the price is higher at MYR 2 making it a total of MYR 8.50 nett. I asked for the brown sauce and curry sauce to be put together because I am eating them immediately upon reaching home. Shared this ccf too.


My portion of seafood Mee hoon. Ate this Mee Hoon slowly after I ate ccf. The broth is very salty to me but I drank it all. Oh dear, should I have poured it away?


Bought one roll of Tau Sa Peah MYR 4 with 5 pieces and 2 egg tarts at MYR 2.10 nett each.


Packaging - the 5 Tau sar peah are kept inside a clear bag before being wrapped in the outer printed paper. Made by Gaya Biscuit in Penang. Ingredients are wheat flour, salt, sugar, mung bean, vegetable oil and onion.


MYR 0.80 each. The mung bean fillings taste acceptable but this Tau sar peah has a rose fragrance which sometimes can be detected in cakes that used rose essence flavours. I am ok with it but he doesn't like that extra taste.

Ate one egg tart each during tea time. Tasty, I like egg tarts better than siew baos.


Bought 1 pack of rice with lotus root, peanut with a bit of meat soup and 1 pack of rice with one whole slightly salted chicken leg at Lucky Alley coffee shop for about MYR 20. Just ate the chicken leg, keeping the rice to cook fried rice. The salty gravy is kept to cook instant noodles on another day. No slot to eat the lotus root soup so into the fridge it goes with its accompanying rice.


Back to choy kee, bought two packs of 3jc  soup version at MYR 7 each. We shared the pack with hor fun for early dinner and kept the pack with Mee hoon for another day.


My portion. He gave me some chicken meat. There were some broth remaining after I finished eating this hor fun but it was very salty so I didn't drink it because I have already consumed too much salt on this day as I drank all the remaining seafood meehoon broth which was very salty to me.

So now we have stock of 2 packs of Mee Hoon, 2 packs of rice, 1 pack of lotus root soup, 1 bowl of chicken gravy in the fridge to be cleared on other days. My BK cheese burger is in the fridge for 6 days so I must eat it very soon.
