burger kaw kaw @ ss15

the number of burger joints these days are just uncountable. i feel like supply is way exceeding demand these days. having heard of burger kawkaw, wanted to give it a try. every burger joint has like its signature. burger kaw kaw is known for their thick patties. u know how like mcds patties have shrank so much, to a point i no longer want to order a mchicken anymore because its not filling for me, well this attacks the issue i guess.

burger bakr burger kaw kaw, instead of pan frying the patties they grill them, but really, nothing special.

i decided to try their lamb burger, single patty would suffice because of its thickness. and thankfully, because i was really full after my burger. my meal was roughly 15 bucks, but i didn't really enjoy it that much. few minutes after i seated myself, my order was ready. this could only mean one thing, my burger was not made to order. i didn't really like that fact. i prefer waiting for abit, and having my food come right from the grill. and so, because of this, the bread was hard and dry, the meat cold, and it just was like a burger made ages ago and not up to standard at all. honestly, i would not go back. moreover, this is located a row behind burgertory, so burgertory over burger kaw kaw, anytime man. like other than the thickness of its patty, nothing special. even ramlee burgers on the streets are way better because they are made to order, hence served hot. definitely not worth trying.

best rojak @ss15

i've known this rojak place every since i was a little kid and this is the only rojak i eat to date. i do not eat, i mean i've tried but they've all ended up being bad experiences for me, so i no longer buy rojak elsewhere anymore. i solely am loyal to this rojak place in ss15. ive seen it grow, from a mere lorry truck to having its own stand now, but you still see the signature truck parked behind their stand. its just something, call it magic, but they serve up, to me, the best rojak there is.

depending on your luck, there may be a que. i think there was only once that i went that there was no que. thing is the que in front is normally about 10 people, but each of them buy like 5-10 packets, some even 15 so it takes pretty long to get to your turn. its like u wait so long, u must buy as many pacckets as you can. this rojak is the malay kind of rojak so it is with shredded cucumber, mengkuang, some fried stuffs, absolutely yummy keropok and topped with a peanut sauce. they have a very organized system in play, with one uncle shredding the cucumbers whilst packing the peanut sauce whereas the other packing the rojak into individual packets to order.

they have pure rojak, or u can have eggs and sotong with the rojak. i normally haev the sotong and egg ones but that is just cuz im a fan of sotong. the sotong is not the star, its the rojak itself, so u could do without the sotong.
its absolutely food from heaven, i must say. its the sauce and the fried stuffs that comes together with the rojak that is the star of the dish. every bite is heavenly. this really is a 10 out of 10 dish. its like if they ever stopped selling their superstar dish, id probably not eat rojak anymore in my life. no joke. this is how good it is. i swear they are as old as me and im in my twenties.
 
there is a cendol store right next to the rojak stall, so u could have a cup of cendol whilst waiting under the hot blazing sun, just to cool you down.

gold chilli @ss15

this place here-not meant for anyone on a diet. no joke.

gold chilli-famous for their butter chicken and tomyam fried rice. and its super good. the place is quite small, and if u go during peak hours, be prepared to wait a little before being able to find a table. but trust me its worth the wait. do not be tempted to just go over to darusalam to have that roti canai because their butter chicken is really worth the wait.

here, you will see almost everytable ordering the same thing. either butter cooked, or mongolian cooked chicken/fish/sotong/chicken boneless. so i've tried quite a few combinations-butter boneless chicken, butter sotong, monogolian boneless chicken, mongolian sotong. they are all good. just depends what you are feeling on that day.

so i was feeling rather down that night, and that called for comfort food eating. ordered butter boneless chicken, the monogolian sotong, sambal fried rice, and fried kangkung.

butter chicken drenched in butter sauce. the butter sauce was super rich and buttery. almost everyone i've been with who didn't order white rice ended up ordering white rice to go with the sauce. people who aren't a fan of sweet food would prefer the mongolian style cuz this sauce is quite sweet and rich. the only thing i'd say definitely is that i have no idea how many blocks of butter they used man. super buttery, damn bloody good butter chicken. i dreamt of butter chicken after eating this for the first time. its a must try for everyone. i never knew such great butter chicken existed until i tried this.
 mongolian style cooked sotong this was too good as well. loved the black pepper-ish taste that went with the crunchy sotong. they gave us lots of sotong, very generous with their portions i must say. if you ain't much of a sweet tooth, this would be a better option than the butter chicken. though i'd recommend you to try both. you won't regret it.
 sambal fried rice vs tomyam fried rice. i loved the previous, but on other ocassions when i have brought my friend here, they always go for the tomyam fried rice. personally, i prefer the sambal one. it had a good hit of sambal.
 kangkung belacan. who doesn't love this vege. its almost always my must order vege. i would have preferred if they gave more leaves than stems though. but yea how wrong can kangkung belacan go. just needed some greens to complete the meal.

seriously, you will dream of butter chicken after having this. its that good. you have a friend coming in to kuala luumpur, bring them here to try this. this can compete with the like of the famous nirwana or raju or kayu. it has to go into tourist books really.

this gold chilli, is really golden i tell u.

tong pak fu

tong pak fu, well the ones i normally visit is the one in empire, midvalley, ss15 and sunway pyramid. they do have plentiful of outlets though. they take pride in their tracka durian-snow-ice and d24 durian snow-ice, many durian lovers flock over to tongpakfu for their durian desserts. i've tried their tracka durian ice before, but its not my fav. i still prefer chilled real genuine durains, anytime. it tasted slightly to mild down and hence slightly artificial for me.

so i normally order the black sesame ice instead. if you don't know i'm an avid goma-adzuki beans fan. like avid. the topping are normally jelly but i always chnge them to all red-beans. i just feel like it goes better. the black sesame flavour is really there. this is my usual whenever i visit tongpakfu. and it is a musttry for all black sesame fans out there. this tops the durian series, any day. 8.90 for a regular serving.

decided to be adventurous one of the times and tried the soya ice and the mango in milk with sago. i'm not a fan of sago so the mango thing was not my thing. i love the soya ice series in snowflake so i was looking forward to this as well. but boy was i disappointed. it was really extremely bad. i literally took only a few spoonfuls and left it to melt away-yes it was that bad. it was quite tasteless.

being a black sesame fan, i ordered the black sesame tangyuens, coated in black sesame. to my disappointment, there was too little black sesame filling inside. priced at 4.90, super not worth it. the first batch that came was super undercook and i had to request for another one. was not impressed at all. and the servers there could not understand my english, nor mandarin either. i'm always not a fan of service industries employing people who can't even communicate in the same language. i mean waht kind of service industry would that be then, right. they have the peanut filling one as well, same price. initially, well according to the very misleading brochure, i thought i'd be getting 3 black sesame tangyuens and 3 peanut tangyuens for 5 bucks. but i was wrong. super misleading menu.

choco lava cake (which took forever). i am in love with choco lava cakes. the hot-cold-combo, to me is just perfect. okay what i liked about this was the black sesame tuille that came with the dessert. what i didn't like about it was the cake. i felt it was slightly burnt because the cake was very bitter. it was baked to perfection, yes with a very gooey consistency in the centre but the taste was off. i've had better.


well. i'm still a tongpakfu lover, but, just for the black sesame ice and nothing else.

burgertory @ ss15

after having the pork burgers here, i've been like their spokesperson. i've been telling everyone i see and know just how amazing their burgers were. if there were to be a burger of the year award, it would definitely go out to them. they deserve like an oscar for burgers. its like i have to thank the burger gods for endowing us with such great burgers. 

burgertory is located just above guardian. location wise, its honestly quite hidden cuz despite driving pass guardian like a-million-times, i never noticed burgertory. a friend of mine told me about it and i've been bringing everyone i know to this in-my-very-humble-opinion-the-best-burger-joint. 



similar to other burger joints, with an additional 5 ringgit you get the sides and a refillable drink. but the few times i went they were having an offer whereby you don't just get fries. u get fries, onion rings and these cheesy chicken bitespork burgers are awesome. i've visited a couple of times and i've tried the caramelized onion burger with brown onion sauce with an extra egg and extra pork bacon. it was sinfully good. absolutely loved how the patty was super juicy and humungous. the patties here are super thick and i'm always stuffed after a meal here in burgertory. my regular order here is the mascarpone curry and cheese which comes with onion rings, curry cheese sauce, and topped off with an egg. the portobello mushroom is also amazing with the juciest ever mushroom. my sets always costs me 20 bucks. but really, i would say take your pick of any burger, it will be good. their fries are super good and i absolutely love their onion rings.
. so i've only tried their pork burgers because i mean i'm infatuated with their pork burgers and i feel like i cant have pork burgers just anywhere.

honestly burgertory over crayon burger anytime. that is if you are in the vicinity of ss 15 deabting on which burger-eatery to visit. atmosphere here is also so much better than crayon. click here to check out crayon burgers review.

shakespeare pattiserie @ss15

decided to try out this considerably newly opened place in fifteen. there's no such thing as being too full for dessert. 

this place is like a little cafe, having an array of pastries and cakes on display. they have main meals as well, but that wasn't what i was there for. i was there for one purpose and one purpose only-dessert! choosing the dessert was a no brainer for me. i had the caramel pavlova and the green tea tiramissu. i mean look at the pavlova, its was like calling out to me 'come have me'. okay, moving on before i go a little nuts. basically their desserts are all on display, and you pick to order. they have everything from bread to cakes to macaroons to chocolates to pastries, to mousse. 

 caramel pavlova beat serai's hands down. the texture-was the melt in your mouth marshmellowy kind. and might i add it was huge. bigger than serais and much more worth it. 7.90, half the price of serai's and 10 times the flavour. its definitely a must try. i would even say the best pavlova in town. they have a berry pavlova as well. click here to read of serai's pavlova for comparison. 

this was also priced at 7.90. i'm a sucker for greentea and adzuki beans. layered between the mascarpone cheese and greentea sponge were adzuki beans. my thoughts on this were 'maybe i'm not such a big greentea fan afterall'. i preferred the classic coffee tiramissu to this. this just didn't cut it. didn't like it at all. plus for 7.90, i'd go for the pavlova anytime.

crayon burger @ ss15

there was one point in time where i was on a burger-eating-spree. for some reason i was buger-crazy for tht 2 weeks. i had so many burgers that i got so sick of burgers after that.

decided to try out crayon burger in ss15. thing is i'm a subang kid, and i'm a foodie. and when i'm hungry, i just want my food, like, now. so i love going to ss15. the hidden gems in fifteen-unbelievable. i never knew there were so many foodjoints for foodies in good old regular fifteen.

priding on their colorful buns, this place is swamped especially during the weekends. well, you get to choose the colour shade of your buns or they'll randomly give you one. they have the red bun (red yeast) pink (red yeast), greyish black (charcoal), green (vege), and a milky pastel colour (milk-flavoured). so basically like the many burger joints around, you order your burger, and for an additional 5 bucks, you get fries and a refillable drink.
5 bucks for a refillable drink was a dead-set-offer for me. i love caramelized onions so i went for the classic-chicken, topped with sharp cheddar and i added an egg to my burger. i picked the red color red yeast bun. personally i thought that the chicken breast fillet was cooked to perfection. the meat was moist throughout, not dry at all, which was pretty impressive for a breast fillet. we all know how bad a reputation chicken breasts have for being too dry. the fries however, was a disappointment. some were undercook.

thing is, i've read online where people have said that the fries were amazing, whereas the chicken fillet was super-overcooked and dry. so personally i think its a luck thing and their cooking ain't fine-tuned such that they aare consistent with the quality of their food. portion wise, i thought it was a little small. i whacked my fries and my friends fries because she's not a big eater, and i was still so-so. or maybe i'm just a humungous eater? and yes i was hungry to have whacked the not-very-yummy fries.

so, for huge eaters, i would suggest getting the rainbow instead which has a double patty. you can add eggs to your burger too like i did. i always feel like the slightly runny yolk combined with the patty of the burger brings your burger experience to a whole different level.
