Malaysia Food Hunt
02:57:00Jthejon Malaysia Food Hunt Begin!!
I have been travel to Malaysia frequently for food hunting.
Founded and tried those recommended food places in Malaysia.
I am going to do a review here today for you guys.. So lets start!!
First stop, Breeks Kafe.
Cafe Latte -
The lousier coffee that i ever tasted. It just tasted like diluted milk, it has no coffee taste/aroma, it was BAD.
Cream of Mushroom -
The soup was just pretty normal. I felt like the soup was can soup instead of cook from the fresh.
Seafood Marinara -
It was pretty bad. The seafood wasn't fresh, it had a weird smell on it. The sauce was affected by the seafood and the overall taste was bad. Not worth a try even thou it was cheap.
Fish and Chips -
It was very normal. The fish was well fried to golden brown but the taste was very plain and the fish wasn't that fresh too.

Second stop, Kurotomon Ramen 黑燈門.
Green Tea -
Normal.
Gyoza - RM13.00
Pretty average gyoza. The gyoza skin texture was chewy and smooth, the meat was meaty, fresh tender and fragrant. The broth was fragrant, and it wasn't oily.
Kin Maru Special - RM29.00
Braised black pork, char siew, tamago, seaweed, chilli, sesame and spring onion.
The noodle texture wasn't chewy enough instead it was slightly overcooked, The broth was fragrant, thick, and sweet. The chilli wasn't spicy at all, i felt that the chili shouldn't be included in this dish as it might spoil the taste. The black pork was really good, it was savory, tender and it was really really soft.
Food: 1/5

Third stop, Kam Long Curry Fish Head 金龙咖喱鱼头.
The restaurant is like a typical old school coffee shop – mosaic tile floors with many fans around to provide the much-needed ventilation as you sweat your way through while enjoying their fish heads!
Curry Fish Head (Medium) - RM30
The claypot fish head curry was sizzling hot bubbles when arriving our table. The colours look spicy but it is not really that spicy at all. It is a typical Malaysian kind of curries that is not too thick nor spicy, The fish was fresh and the aroma fragrance of the curry with coconut milk enhances the flavor of the fish. The fresh curry goes extremely well with a bowl of rice.
Food: 3.5/5
Ambiance: 1/5
Service: 2/5
Overall, the food was really good. It worth a try.
Direction to the restaurant:
It is easy to get to the place! Simply exit City Square at Level 1 where Maybank is located. Across the first traffic light, you will see the Hong Leong Bank. Walk straight down along those shophouses for about 5 minutes, along the way you should be able to smell the curry fragrance and spot this famous shop quite easily since most likely there will be a long queue of people outside waiting for seats!
