Kuala Lumpur: Madam Kwan’s 2008-02-12 06:13:58 We're on holiday! Greetings from Kuala Lumpur
. More specifically, Midvalley Megamall, in a restaurant called Madam Kwan's.
Madam Kwan's started out in a single shop along Jalan Imbi (one of the busiest main streets in KL), originally named 'Sakura Restaurant'. They became famous for their Nasi Lemak, Curry & Assam Fish Head. Then they rebranded and opened new outlets (with an upmarket modern decor) under the name of 'Madam Kwan's' which offered the favourites from the old Sakura menu plus new ones like the super yummy 'Nasi Bojari', aka '3 Colour Rice'.
We met up with Jin, one of Louis' uni friends who was back in KL for the holidays, as well as another friend (and part time personal tour guide), Clayton. After a day of trawling through shops we'd certainly worked up a decent appet
Langkawi: Lobster Palace 2008-02-15 06:19:00 After all our mad shopping in Kuala Lumpur, we relaxed for a couple of days at The Andaman, in Langkawi
. While we were there, the well proportioned concierge recommended a restaurant called LobsterPalace
, if we were ever in the mood for seafood. This was a man who looked like he knew his food, so we needed no further invitation.
The Andaman was quite a distance from Kuah, so by the time we arrived at Lobster Palace we were quite hungry. The menu was relatively simple, but when you have fresh seafood on offer, you don't really need much else!
Kuala Lumpur: Purple Cane Tea Restaurant 2008-02-17 06:19:27 After relaxing for a couple of days in Langkawi, we returned to the hustle and bustle of Kuala Lumpur
. We arrived in the early evening, but had arranged dinner on the way back with a couple of Louis' friends, Nick and Kelvin.
They picked us up from the hotel about 9pm. We'd let them decide where to take us for dinner, and we soon arrived at a place called the Purple
Cane Tea Restaurant.
Nick explained that every dish on the menu has somehow been prepared with tea as a prominent ingredient. It sounded quite an interesting concept.
Shallot Thai 2008-03-10 07:18:34 After our overseas adventures, our tastebuds were sorely missing exotic food. So we arranged with some friends to drop by Shallot Thai in Malvern, one of my long time favourites.
I first visited about 6 years ago with some friends when I lived nearby, and since then i've been hooked. I've tried other Thai restaurants (including some rather expensive ones) but they still just don't match up. Now I
