Restoran Green ViewNo.6 & 8 Jalan 19/346300 Petaling JayaTel: 7958 1076It was Christmas evening and I was hankering for some crabs.

The crab meat was fresh and succulent and were perfectly infused with the sweet … [Read more...]

Kinsahi Japanese RestaurantLot F-11, 1st FloorAeon Bukit TinggiKlangTel: 03-33232229The spanking new Aeon Bukit Tinggi boasts quite a no. of restaurants.

Perhaps it was still early or perhaps the place was still new. The place was done up in simple kopitiam style but what was a … [Read more...]
