A Taiping guy personal rants and Malaysia Food blog
Everytime I back to my hometown which is Taiping (Rain Town), I’m sure will be visiting Robert & Bakery and buy some pastries, breads, or biscuits. I like their foods because it’s very fresh, it is because of they either bake new cakes and biscuits or get from their suppliers every day. So, all the foods are not overnight and are fresh everyday, this is what I like.
Robert & Bakery is one of the famous bread and cakes shop at Aulong, there is always full of customers at night. So, this time I back to Taiping, I visit the bread shop again. This time, I just eat the Egg Tart and “Gui Nian Gou“. The shop opens from 2pm until 11pm, when you first go there at 2.30pm and the Egg Tart is still hot and crispy, very good taste!

* Egg Tart – A very good taste, crispy and fresh Egg Tart. It has 2 different colour and favor which is yellow and green. Yellow is the normal Egg Tart and green 1 is made from pandan, you know that right? I recommend you to find and try it if you’re planning to go Taiping. (more…)
Last Sunday which was 21th December 2008 was Dong Zi or Tang Yuan Festival. They said after we ate Tang Yuan then we’ll be growing 1 year old, so I’m 21 years old now! Haha I’m still young right? I was in my hometown, Taiping last week from Thursday until Sunday. So, my lovely mum and I made Tang Yuan together at Saturday night so that we can ate it on Sunday morning.
First, my mum cook a bowl of water with pandan leaves, then put some sugar to make it sweet. Then she put the flour on the plate, mixed it with the sugar water just now. Then she started to twist it until it became solid.

* It’s only one part of the “solid flour” that had been twisted. (more…)
It was yesterday, my girlfriend and I went to saloon that usually we visited which is in Kepong. I cut my hair and she want to has something different and she curled her hair, she looked cute haha! After that, we planned to take dinner together before I sent her home. We drove nearby the saloon in Kepong, we saw Prince Cafe nearby there and we decided to take our dinner there. Actually I ate a few times in Prince Cafe before but it was in Petaling Jaya but not Kepong. Prince Cafe it’s a Hong Kong food restaurant, I think they have a lot of branches around the Kuala Lumpur.
Actually we were not that hungry because we took our lunch at about 2.30pm, so we just ordered set meal and didn’t order any side dishes. So, I ordered a set meal which was Pork Fillet Spaghetti and it came with soup and drink, so I ordered “Soup Lo Song” and “Yin Yong Ice”. While my girlfriend ordered a set meal too which was Honey Spare Ribs Rice, “Soup Lo Song” and “Hot Chocolate”.

* Pork Fillet Spaghetti – I like the Pork Fillet Spaghetti, it has Pork Fillet, corn and green bean. I like the taste, very delicious! My girlfriend told me that Kim Gary 1 more delicious but I never tried it before, will try it next time!

* Honey Spare Ribs Rice – My girlfriend gave me 1 piece of the spare ribs (Pai Kuat), the spare ribs was sweet 1 because got honey. It came with few pieces of spare ribs, corn and vegetables. Actually I tried this before in ChatterBox which is a Hong Kong Restaurant in One-Utama, but I felt that Prince Cafe 1 more delicious. I recommend you to try this if you plan to take your meal there!

My friends celebrate my birthday in One-Utama which is at 2th Nov last month. They called me and said want to celebrate my birthday in One-Utama, actually it was just a lunch but I was happy too. When we reached One-Utama, we walked around and ended up we walked into Restaurant Canton-I which is a Hong Kong Restaurant. This was my 2nd or 3rd times took my meal there. The environment is kinda good and comfortable. The thing I don’t like in Restaurant Canton-I is..everytime I had to stand outside and waited for the table, it’s always full house!

The Restaurant Canton-I just located besides the Pasta Zanmai or opposite of Burger King, it’s in the old wing. (more…)

* Mexico Bun. It’s damn big if you see it in reality!
As usual, I went back to my hometown (Also known as Rain Town, Taiping) during public holiday last week. It was Malaysia 51th National Day. Normally I will tried a lot of new Taiping food everytime I back to my hometown, but not for this time due to my serious sore throat, too bad. So I was not going to anywhere to try any Taiping foods. So, what I can eat? I’m going to share and recommend you about this bread shop, named “Robert and Bakery” (If I’m not mistaken).
Actually this is my aunty bread shop, she sells variety of breads, kuih, cakes, biscuits and etc. This is where my first part time job as well, she hired me as a part time bread seller when I was still studied in secondary school. Of course, I had tried all the bread and kuih as well, I love them very much! Unfortunately, I can’t eat it since I have moved to KL 3 years ago.
So, I went back to Taiping this time and I ate only few breads there. I would like to share it with you guys about what is the bread i ate and how’s the bread shop look like. (more…)
My dinner today was Home Made Yong Tau Fu that prepared by my eldest brother. He is good in cooking as well ! Once i back home from work today, he asked whether i want ate Yong Tau Fu today or not, Sure Of course !! I love Yong Tau Fu ! Yong Tau Fu is a chinese food, it’s not halal because it’s with pork.
So before my dinner, I went to PJ Hall besides Ming Tien to play badminton with my friends. Games start from 6.00pm – 8.30pm(Free court, sponsored by company), but we have not much friends today so we start from 7.00pm.
My friends were having their dinner in Taman Mayang but i refuse to follow because Yong Tau Fu is waiting for me at my house.
What is the material food insides Yong Tau Fu ? My brother put Yong Kok Tao, Tao Pok, Mushroom and Chilli, all with pork insides. So i only took Yong Kok Tao, Tao Pok and mushroom because i don’t like the red chilli. It’s cooked with egg + bit soy sauce ! Very nice 1 !! I make it hot for 15mins. waiting …

* Ta Deng !! Yong Tau Fu is ready to serve to my mouth !! I put a little but of soy sauce, if there is some “yew chang” (Fried Bawang) then will be very nice, unfortunately I don’t have.
I took about 10-15minutes to settle this Home Made Yong Tau Fu ! It’s delicious ! It is not difficult to cook this dishes, but i’m not ready to learn haha!
