You guys might be thinking, mamak & tomyam definitely cannot sync together rite..haha.. don't be surprised that yes, the tomyam in this "ane" is super spicy & can beat the thai outlets as well..

I do not have the pic of tomyam since we tapau it. It has been a long time we lepak here as we are not living in S.A anymore. If not, this is our usual lepak hangout place in S.A.

This is what we had during our makan time there.

My fav's here

Sup Sayur RM4.80

I decided to order Nasi Grg Seafood (RM7)

Full of sotong & udang, walao...

Super spicy, Chang2 likes it so muchy..hehe..

My review is based on my personal point of view. Different people might have different view from mine. Hence, this review is for my blog purposes only ;). 

June 9, 2013

We ended my dearest bday with dinner at Serai Thai Restaurant, Sek 3 Shah Alam. It is actually a frequent best makan place for wo de jiaren.
I have always wanted Chang2 to try their steam fish as I love it. Luckily she loves it..hehe.. I forgot where is the receipt & price though,huhu.. but if I am not mistaken, total price is around RM100++ (less than RM150). Totally worth the price. Taste-wise: 4.8/5. I love it.

 Kailan with salted fish (Small)

 Claypot towfoo with lots of seafood (Small)

However, they did not use Japanese towfoo for this dish here, just the normal towfoo only

 My all time fav's - Chicken with dried chillies (Small)

 Steamed sea bass with lime sauce - RM40 (the only item that I can rber the price,haha)

 Another view for the hot & spicy steamed sea bass

Chang2's all time fav - Fried Squid (Medium)

2nd review - Mohd Chan Abdullah Restaurant Sek15, Shah Alam

My review is based on my personal point of view. Different people might have different view from mine. Hence, this review is for my blog purposes only ;)

This is the old entry that I have found terperuk in my hard drive, haha. Hence, since I am so in the blog mood today, I wanna post bout this too.

This is the view of their restaurant. We first visited this restaurant on June then. Noted that, there is 1 area that is facilitate with aircond & one area that is occupy with fan only. Facilities such as Surau & toilet also provided here. 

Yong Chow Fried Rice served with Bird eye chilies. RM6.50. Tastewise: 5/5. The portion is big & if u're not a big eater, I suggest u share it wit someone else. I love this dish so much, since I am a big fan of Chinese fried rice. I opt out the chilies though coz I am not a big fan of spicy food. The rice is quite dry sometimes so I always ordered a bowl of plain soup to complement this dish as it suit my liking then.

Chang2 ordered the Cantonese Ying Yong (RM6.50). Tastewise: 4/5. This is also a huge portion however they kuetiaw portion is not that much as compared to the crispy mee hoon. 

The dim sum that we ordered. I forgot bout e name nevertheless all of dim sum sells here is RM3.80 per plate. Xtra noted, do come early coz during holiday or peak period, u might not able to have their chic dim sum as it it sold out already. this is what we experienced during our 1st visit here. it was 7++pm only then,huhu. Luckily we got to taste the chic dim sum on our 2nd visit. Tastewise: 4.5/5

They also serve pau here, another fav's of mine & chang2 too, hehe. All pau here is sold RM1.70 per pc. Among the flavour that I can rber are red bean (our fav's), bbq (my fav's), kaya. Tastewise:5/5

Managed to capture the pic of our bill back then,hehe.

Their name card

happy tasting everyone ;)

Early 2012 Bday Celebration - Mohd Chan Abdullah Restaurant, Shah Alam

My review is based on my personal point of view. Different people might have different view from mine. Hence, this review is for my blog purposes only ;)

Holla..it has been a while since I last blog. Plus, this is my new blog. decided to create a new one. Well, I celebrated my bday early this year with my family. Do not ask me why, haha.. Every family have their own story I guess.

So, enough story bout me. We celebrated our bday at Mohd Chan Abdullah Restaurant, Shah Alam today. I was the one who suggested the location as it is nearby plus I love chinese food. I guess, it is in the gene,haha..poyos.

Hence, this is what we ordered today.

Baby Kailan wit oyster sauce RM12 (If I am not mistaken, the bill is not wit me, huhu)

Basically, I love this dish. Tastewise:5/5

Prawn Sambal RM20. I like this one too, the prawn size is ok nevertheless the sauce is not much. So, for those who wanna savour the sauce, you have to korek2 among the onion & the prawn,haha. Tastewise: 4/5

Lemon Chicken. I love this dish most however forgive me bout the blurry pic. I guess my hands were shaking when I took it wit my android phone. If I am not mistaken the price is RM15 per plate. The chicken is crispy suit to my liking & the lemon sauce is not overpowering e chicken. Tastewise:5/5

Crispy Squid RM20. The squid is crispy nevertheless, my lil bro really dislikes this dish as he felt that it was full of flour as compared with the thin slices squid that they gave us. Tastewise: 2.5/5

Steam Siakap with Halia aka Ginger. RM??? I totally forgot bout e price,haha. The fish size is small ( I guess it suits for 3-4 persons) it does not has fishy smell & taste, that is e good point. Nevertheless, it has a lot of fish bones in there, & I do wonder why, hurm. Tastewise: 3.5/5

We also ordered their tofu claypot. I forgot to take the pic though,huhu. The price is RM12/15. Tastewise:5/5. I love it. All of the food, we have it with plain rice.

Total cost RM171.70. This included beverages for 5 of us although we did order 2 extra glasses of orange juice. We did tapau or take away Cantonese ying yong (RM6.50, if I am x mistaken), 2 plates of Wantan mee with bbq chic & a plate of chicken dim sum (RM3.80 per plate). For me, the price was worth the quality & quantity.

Noted that, at Mohd Chan Abdullah Restaurant, they do not offer small, medium or big portion per plate. There is only one size per order. Hence, if u're alone or in a company of 2 or 3, it is not possible to finish all those dishes. Still, if u come in a group of 5 & more, u definitely have to take the alternatively to order more than one plate per dish. In other words, u have to fork out ur money more,hehe.. I am just saying. For muslim, this is the place where u can enjoy Halal chinese dishes as Mohd Chan Abdullah is a muallaf.

So, what are u waiting for, Mohd Chan Abdullah restaurant has a few branches. Do visit one of their branches. The one that I always frequent is located in Sek15, Shah Alam opposite Perodua & Daihatsu.

here is the address & contact number
33 & 35 Jalan Utas B
