Pan Seared Atlantic Cod

On Thursday 23.mar.2023, went to 126 Kopitiam to buy prawn mee soup and chapfan no rice for the Elderlies lunch.

*** Sunday 12.mar.2023 ***

After having the honey toast at Miru Dessert Cafe, uptown, I walked over to Cor Blimey to collect the order I placed using Foodpanda. 

5.20 pm - pan seared Atlanta cod which could be less salty with creamy lemon herb dip. Sides are mushrooms which is tasty and chunky chips which are potato wedges. I like the potato wedges the best. I ate all 3 items the next day.

2.40 pm - Cor Blimey at Damansara Utama.

2.42 pm - clean and neat interior.

Ordered via Foodpanda for self pickup. Total price MYR 49.13 nett.

*** Thursday 23.mar.2023 ***

11.36 am - his chapfan no rice from 126 Kopitiam.

4.12 pm - he cooked frozen tiger prawns brand Atlantis king 250 g with petai, eggs, coconut oil, turmeric powder, chili powder and onions for the two of us to share. Yummy! I ate this dish with 2 slices of wholemeal bread.

I checked the middle of 30 petai aka parkia speciosa to ensure that there are no bugs or worms in them before he cooked the 30 petai. Kept the remaining petai for next days.

Bought this pack of 200 g petai from Aeon Supermarket at about MYR 17.50 ish. I estimate he can cook 3 dishes with 200 g of petai.

He saw this Petai Tapah announcement so we went to Aeon Supermarket to specifically look for this brand of petai to buy them.

Baiwei Minibowl Aurora Place

On Wednesday 22.mar.2023, went to Pavilion Bukit Jalil for our lunch.

*** Bai Wei ***

11.56 am - he chose 4 items ALA carte:
1. Lotus pork soup MYR 8
2. Steamed Chicken in mala oil MYR 8
3. Steamed fish fillet MYR 6
He thinks the fish is Pak Sou Gong fish.
4. Herbal tea

Total price is MYR 26.50 nett. This Bai Wei eatery is a new shop at Aurora Place Bukit Jalil and is popular with the lunch crowd. I remember NuxV went to the Puchong branch:


12.12 noon - Bai Wei Minibowl eatery at Aurora Place which is a tall building next to Pavilion Bukit Jalil.

12.13 noon - Bai Wei eatery is located opposite Woodfire burger eatery.

*** Gyudon at Pavilion Bukit Jalil ***

1.22 pm - I finally decided to eat a small bowl of Gyudon MYR 8.8 nett at Sukiya pavilion Bukit Jalil. Ever since Yoshinoya eatery has closed in midvalley mall, I have not eaten Gyudon.

The rice is just a small portion which is right for me. The very thin slices of beef is easy to eat and is lightly marinated with soy sauce. There are slices of onions giving the rice a light caramelized taste. There are thin beef Fatty slices too which I ate easily since the slices of fat are very thin and not significant.
A tasty meal after a long time.

For thicker slices of beef, I could have ordered the yakiniku don but it is marinated with a sweetish sauce similar to teriyaki. I don't like sweetish sauce so I didn't order it.

I like this small portion of Gyudon. Not much rice but enough beef slices and also leaves me with enough empty stomach space to eat desserts and ice elsewhere.

Total price: MYR 8.8 nett.

Counter to pay the bill.

1.31 pm - Sukiyaki Tokyo bowls and noodles at pavilion Bukit Jalil. There are many lunch sets so many choices are available.

Tone Up Salted Egg Prawn Burger

On Tuesday 21.mar.2023, he went to pick up one elderly at 8 am to visit kid 1's GP while I was still sleeping. Even at the GP, they had to wait for quite some time and he was back at 12 noon.

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

10.27 am - when we reached 1u, we immediately went to look for Mr. Fish eatery because it was not in Starling Mall anymore so we were eager to eat their fish slices again.

10.27 am - we found Mr. Fish opposite Kluang Station eatery. Then I thought of eating fish slices mihun soup at Sekinchan Catch so we didn't eat brunch at Mr. Fish. Mana tau no more Sekinchan Catch, Teo Chew Lor is there in place of Sekinchan Catch. We even look through Teo Chew Lor's menu to find, eh, no fish slices mihun soup and walked away disappointed.

10.54 am - Then I notice this shop next to Mr. Fish. The name is Bliss Babe and it sits there all pretty in pink so I got really curious.

10.54 am - I looked through their banner. Please click on the above photo for a larger image to read the text. The only staff approached me so I asked for a menu but I was told no menu. 

Ok, I see the words Collagen Drink which I am not interested in.

Ah, I see the words Salted Egg Prawn. Sounds good.

These sweet Bao sounds good too.

10.56 am - I didn't want the Collagen Drink so I bought just one Salted Egg Prawn Bao for takeaway due to curiosity.

10.56 am - A medium sized bao. The size of the box is 4 inch x 4 inch x 2.5 inch.

11 am - I requested for a receipt but was told that the credit card payment slip is the receipt. Who is the staff trying to fool? But I am too lazy to argue with the staff so I just pay MYR 14 for the Bao all due to curiosity. My spouse said to me, collagen drinks mean it is for people who are beauty conscious to eat and drink so why did you buy food from that shop. I am like curious mah.

5.21 pm - back home, I tore the bao in two, took a photo and then ate it. Can see the whole prawns in the bao and it does taste a bit of salted egg yolk. It is a bit sweet. I don't know what the additional fillings are in this bao. Taste is acceptable. My spouse says the main stars are the Collagen Drinks. Why did you go and buy one bao? 😅

Today I searched online for more info and found this article dated Mon 20.mar.2023:


Ah, my spouse is correct, it is for beauty conscious people so the meals and drinks are not for me. I went and bought the sidekick instead of the star attractions. 😂

*** Tuesday 21.mar.2023 ***

12 noon - on the way back from the GP's clinic, he stopped by Swee Hing coffee shop and bought 3 packs of lunch meals for a total of MYR 40 nett for himself and the 2 elderlies:

1. Steamed chicken thigh and siew yuk rice
2. Steamed chicken thigh and siew yuk without rice
3. Roast duck breast meat and siew yuk without rice

4.19 pm - his dinner of frozen celery pork suigao MYR 7.90 from Jaya Grocer with frozen spinach and a condiment of pickled bamboo shoots in oil. I helped him by eating some of the doughy skin of the suigao because I like to eat starchy doughy food while he wants to eat less simple carb.

Roast Meat Chimichurri

On Monday 20.mar.2023, he chose to go to an eatery that he found online for food.

12.16 noon - English Roast MYR 22++ is a snack side dish of roast pork served with chimichurri sauce, mustard and gherkin. Chimichurri sauce is typically made of parsley, garlic, olive oil, oregano and lemon juice. He chose this dish.

12.20 noon - main dish of grilled Cajun chicken chop MYR 25++ which is chosen by him also because I asked him to choose two dishes since he chose this eatery. He chose the piri-piri sauce. He ate the chicken and I ate all the fries and salad since there are grated cheese on both items.

Piri-piri sauce is typically made of lemon juice, pepper, garlic, salt, onion, bay leaves, vinegar, oil and red chili.

12.10 noon - I chose a slice of burnt cheese cake MYR 20++ but costs MYR 25++ for the promo bundle of one black coffee with a slice of cake so he cancelled his hot coffee latte order so that I could order the cake coffee bundle and he will drink the hot black coffee instead. 

I ordered a Matcha Rose Latte iced drink MYR 13++ because I just want a cold refreshing drink that is not too sweet. The light fragrant rose taste is more significant in this drink than the light matcha taste.

12.07 noon - I chose a slice of burnt cheese cake. Unlike those burnt cheese cake that I have eaten before that has two different cake texture, this slice of cake has the same texture throughout which is fine with me. The taste is creamy cheese and not too sweet with a tinge of saltiness so I would eat it again with no issue.

1.03 pm - the cake counter. I would like to try all these cakes.

11.29 am - Smore Bukit Jalil is the eatery that he chose. It is located in the same area as Friendship Cafe coffee shop. It is nicely decorated and has a soothing ambiance. It opens at 12 noon during weekdays and earlier during weekends.

S'more is an American word that means:
"A sweet snack consisting of a chocolate bar and toasted marshmallows sandwiched between graham crackers"
Source: online dictionary.

S'more is a campfire treat because it is generally cooked over a campfire.

1.06 pm - ordered 4 items. Total price is MYR 98.60 nett.

1.03 pm - from this list of drinks, I cannot make up my mind on which drink to order.

Not brave enough to try the kombucha because I am afraid of the detox effect I heard about.

Cake and black coffee bundle MYR 25++ and I would like to try all the cakes listed in this section.

He ordered the grilled Cajun chicken chop from this lunch section in the menu.

He ordered the English roast pork dish from this small plate section in the menu.

On weekends, the brunch menu is available from 9 am onwards.

They have pizzas too.

Pasta and noodles are available too.

This weekend brunch tower is impressive!

1.28 pm - took the new road from Sri Petaling to MRT Putrajaya Line station 28 to go home.

Free MRT Ride

On Sunday 19.mar.2023, kid1 pay back the Elderlies lunch and dinner duty so early morning we walked 800m to the new MRT station and took a free ride to One Utama Shopping Mall for food and window shopping. The new MRT Putrajaya Line is giving free rides until end of this month.

*** Station 28 ***

We started our walk at 7.50 am, stopped for his breakfast and reached the new MRT station at 8.22 am.

8.32 am - ready to get on board. Reached 1u at 9.45 am because we took the longer route. As long as either the exit or entry station is on the Putrajaya MRT Line, then the whole ride is foc.

8.12 am - his breakfast of roti telur bawang with teh tarik - total price is MYR 4.5 nett at a stall nearby the MRT station.

Around 3 pm, we went home via foc MRT Ride and walked back home from the station. Reached home at about 4.20 pm. People were packed like sardines in the return journey.

*** KFC Arabian Spice Crunch ***

4.32 pm - 3 pieces of KFC Arabian Spice Crunch chicken. He ate 2 pieces for dinner and kept one piece for me. Very crunchy. It is a little spicy but later he told me that his stomach is on fire. It is also a bit sweet. I would say that it tastes pleasant.

2.22 pm - KFC chicken bought from 1u. I wanted to buy ala carte only the chicken but they only sell them in combo sets so I bought the 3-pc combo. I didn't open the box to check that the order is correct when receiving it so it was only at home when I found out that they forgot to put the whipped potato and coleslaw into the box. I guess somehow I ended up getting ala carte chicken at combo price. My mistake for not checking upon collecting my order.
