KomPassion is the latest Thai baby in the quiet suburb of Damansara Kim and has been quite the talk of the town lately. We bumped into the owners, Desmond Wong and Tan Huat Jin (who are brothers-in-law) when we dined in KomPassion recently.  Desmond and Tan have teamed up with Chef Nikom Uatthong to set [...]

Occupying a corner lot along that loop strip known as Jalan Medan Setia 2 in Damansara Heights is The Moon Bar.  Ahh… yes, you won’t miss it – just look out for a moon depicted on a dusky signboard.  There are quite a number of eateries and watering holes in this area, so what makes [...]

It’s no secret that Restaurant Extra Super Tanker in Damansara Kim remains as one of the best restaurants I’ve discovered in the Year of the Dragon.  Well, actually we discovered it long before 2012 but let’s just say we have intensified our dining frequency there last year.  It’s just so fitting that this restaurant would [...]

OK, here it goes again. I drafted this post yesterday and for some stupid unexplained reason, it didn’t get saved in the computer and all was lost after I closed the file. I spent a couple of hours spinning a tale about the Three Little Pigs… or rather, how the Big Bad Wolves devoured the [...]

Whenever I get cravings for some good home-style Chinese food, cooked with some unique twists, I head to Oriental Cravings located in the New Wing of 1-Utama. I have dined here countless times (it’s close to my workplace) and among my favourites are their Fish Head Noodles, Chee Cheong Fun with Pork Curry, Claypot Loe [...]

Now if that name – Sector 7 – brings up visions of some super burning monster in an oil rig 8,000 feet under the sea, as depicted in that 2011 Korean horror flick, I can’t blame you. In fact, there is a statue, or should I call it a “structure” of this alien monster right [...]

I have often wondered about the inspiration behind this name “Extra Super Tanker” for a Chinese restaurant? I mean, the place doesn’t really look like a tanker and possibly the description “extra super” refers to the food served here? Well, if that’s the case, then I agree wholeheartedly! Ahhh… but coming back to the “tanker” [...]

To be frank, I have never heard of this mall called Space U8 in Shah Alam.  Well, not until I went to check out this restaurant called Plates and Bottles which is housed inside this mall. Just a bit of info on Space U8:  It is the first Eco Mall in Malaysia, located in Bukit [...]

I called ahead to book a table AND the crabs but was told that their stocks of crabs will only be arriving at about 6pm that day.  Anyhow, I took the risk of a crab-less dinner and made my way to Super Crab Aroma Seafood Restaurant (what a name!). We reached there pretty early in [...]

We were at S.wine in Publika some weeks back, seeing that Publika seems to be the “in” place to chill-out and dine these days.  What with the The BIG B.I.G Weekend happening there these 2 days, I’m sure many foodies are heading there. So, let’s see what S.wine has to offer. Housed in a corner [...]
