Durian of Uptown Damansara

Had dinner at Uptown Damansara Hawker's... Then we decided to check out some durian as the smell was like welcoming us to drop by.. Furthermore, I've been longing to have some for quit sometimes... We had it at the Durian stall at SS21.. Opposite Starbucks...

We had quite a premium one - not sure what the name is but it's something like 'Kulit Hijau' according to the guy... The Chinese man is rather honest as we tot it was D24 but he denied.. He could've easily claimed it to be D24 as we are uncertain... But luckily he didn't... He said it will only be available sometime next week..

 This small durian easily cost us RM 17.. 1 kg plus... But it was satisfactory, the flesh were so thick.. Only contains 7 inside... Including 1 'kucing tidur' - referring to the long one.. First pic n the left side... Kan macam kuceng yang tido... That's my favorite... so normally no one will kacau :)

 There are several other type of durian here... There's also durian buffet that cost RM 10 per person.. But only applicable for 'durian kampung'..

It is so convenient to be here as this stall provides.. Plain water n tempat cuci tangan...


 and... this is supposed to a tip from generation.. Everytime after consuming durian i'll pour water and drink straight from it's skin... It's not to let the durian 'harm' us later... Wallahua'lam...


 Nevertheless, i still felt the heat later... Probably coz I had oyster omelet previously... And puasa on the next day... No wonder i felt so weak..


All in all, the durian was great... Satisfied even just 1 unit...

Breakfast at Pasar PJ


Hubs a some work to be done at Petaling Jaya on a fine Sunday morning... Followed him as it was an off day.. Thought of having breakfast.. Wondering where to have it..  (Adenium suggested to have lontong at sec 14 but was at another side) 

Since i was in the 'reminiscing childhood memories' mood, took him to PJ Market.. The place i normally go marketing when i was in PJ. Yes! it was indeed the wet market but i remembered there was a section for food...  

Just to share what we had :

 
 Murtabak -it's so comel.. RM 3 jer..

 yet so thick.. filled with lotsa meat n onion..

Apom

As far as I'm concerned, apom is an authentic Indian meal / dessert... A bit hard to find a good one... It's has some crispy edges (macam kerak) n fluffy in the inside... A little sweet... Accompanied with some kind of gravy.. Macam santan cair.. Semi-sweet..    

ps : our family calls it SERABAI (bukan serabai as in yang comot n bersepah tu eh!!) but of a simmilar yet different type.. but Serabai xde kerak2..

 normal Apom

 
 Egg apom
- one may choose to have few types of egg apom.. Can have 'mata kerbau' n such.. 
Never had it before, so i chose to have it mixed...  
Belasah je lar :)

 The way they make it...

 
 the accompaniment - the container itself is rather authentic

  the specially made apom pan

Bet this is the man behind this stall.. Runs it with his children.. Heard from the lady next me that this is the best apom in town.. True in fact... Besides apom, there are other dishes such as tosei, rawa tosei, capatti.. etc...
 
 The scenarios at the food stall of PJ Market
(of coz la sgt humble - pls x expect much)

Before leaving, we got some stuff :
wantan noodle... 
so reasonable - only 40 cents each..

plus large yee mee, fucuk and soft tofu...

our home made claypot tofu... so lembut!!! yumms :)

Missing Dad on Father's Day

Wishing a Happy Fathers Day to all dads of the world... Indeed u guys are blessed with wonderful kids to prolong your generation...

As for me, I stopped celebrating Father's Day with my biological dad since 2006...
Surah Fatihah, Yasin.. n such... are the only gift that i could give...

As per my cousin's, Bulan Kayangan :
"Al-fatihah buat semua Ayahanda2 yang masih bersama kita mahupun yang telah pergi lebih dahulu...
Semoga cahaya Fatihah menyinari persemadian mereka dan juga menyinari perjalanan kehidupan Ayahanda yang masih ada..'
Terima kasih kerana memberi saya merasai kasih sayang seorang bapa"

*sobs*

Despite the fact i've lost my dad... I still have my Father in law & wonderful uncles to cherish... May they be blessed with good health, longevity, prosperity, n wellness...

All in all, i miss dad... semoga Allah mencucuri rahmat ke rohnya.. ditempatkan dikalangan orang2 beriman...

Miss him tremendously :((

Tafufa Goreng

Found a great snack at Bandar Baru Bangi. It located at Section 4 (if m not mistaken).. Amongst  the stalls next to Restaurant Yus.. Other stall sells Putu Piring, Pisang Goreng n such... But this one is rather unique.. N new to me... x certain if there are other entrepreneur that sells this before..



Initially, when hubs said that he was getting 'tauhu goreng', i tot it was juz like the normal ones like pisang goreng.. But when i reached there, i saw a totally different of 'tauhu goreng'.. No wonder it's called taufufah goreng...
 
 see.. sangat kemas kan... n x oily pun...

The tofu is some kind of soft tofu... Once it's fried, it tends to get crispy outside yet really soft in the inside..


Then it is placed in a container (tapau box precisely).. Topped with sauce.. One may choose between sweet or spicy type of sauce.. They kinda 'kelar' it first to ensure the sauce absorbs deeply..


Topped by crushed peanuts... Another layer of sauce again + peanut.. Finally sprinkled with sesame @ bijan...
 By the time we got home... The sauce are mostly penetrated to the tofu...


They are so x kedekut sauce... See... Almost half container is filled with sauce...

Lalala.... serious sedap... n lembuttt...


 It is price at RM 2 .00 for single.. and RM 3.50 for double...

The stall is taken cared by two young gentlemen. Sorang masak / goreng tofu and sorang do the finishing part plus cashiering..  I'm amazed by the way they prepare it... Sangat neat and tidy...

Don't be surprise if there's long queue awaiting...
