傅貴林門海鮮餐廳Empire Seafood Restaurant

Few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to went back to my hometown Sandakan for a seafood feast.

It is one of the best restaurant to endeavor seafood at Sandakan. I ordered my favourite dishes during the dinner. Below are the portions for 6 person.

Appetizer: Soy sauce braised peanuts

I was surprised that we didn't get extra charges for the appetizer. Sometimes restaurants will charge a little bit of money for the appetizer and wet tissue.

 Condiments: Garlic, Chili 'Padi' and Lime

Fragrant white rice RM 1.50 per bowl

Normal hot chinese tea RM 0.50 per cup

Here comes the main dishes:

Garlic steam clam 蒜蓉蒸沙白（啦啦）RM 23

The garlic steam clam was so fresh smooth without any sand.

 Dark soy sauce with deep fried squid （油爆苏东） RM 12

The squid was fried to crunchy perfection, and tossed with soy sauce to give it's dark colour and fragrance.

 Specialty toufu （招牌豆腐）RM 15

The specialty toufu was toufu mixed with fish paste and fried in a rectangular shape. Serves together with thousand island sauce to give it a tangy taste.

 Stir fry sweet leaf (Mani leaf) with egg 蛋炒树籽菜 RM 15

The sweet leaf was sweet, soft and tender. Doesn't need to chew much before swallow.

Dry butter prawn without shell （干奶油虾球）RM27

I always order dry butter prawn without shell. To eliminate the hassle of peeling off the prawn shell. The butter strands entangles with the prawn gives a crispy and buttery shell to the prawn. The curry leafs adds another layer of fragrance to the dish. 

Steam Grouper fish 1.2kg （清蒸石斑）RM 84

The grouper fish was fresh and firm. Very simple seasoning with soy sauce, ginger and scallion brings up the freshness and sweetness of the fish. 

For 6 pax, we spent RM 205.20 for the meal. Average RM 34.2 per pax. That's reasonable for me. 

That's all for the day. Hope you enjoy this review.

Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid

Hi! I would like to share our experience at Din Tai Fung @ Sunway Pyramid. Special thanks to my mom for sponsoring this meal. Din Tai Fung is actually a Taiwanese restaurant. They are famous of their Xiao Long Bao (Small steamed bun with meat fillings and soup). I have also heard that their fried rice is a must try. We have ordered two types of Xiao Long Bao, one set is original flavour, another set is the crab flavour. They have some soy sauce and chili oil as condiments The Xiao Long Bao has to be eaten with ginger and vinegar. Here comes with our Xiao Long Bao. Each of the bao is filled with minced meat and some very steamy soup. You have to really be careful of not scalding yourself. To savour them safely, you will have to make a small bite on the skin and allow the soup to flow out onto your spoon. Wait until the soup cools down a little bit before eating it. The crab flavoured Xiao Long Bao has a little twist of crab roe flavour in it. Not...

Review: Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe

Hi! Today I would like to share my dining experience in Hanbing Korean Dessert Cafe. It was located at SS15 Courtyard, next to SS15 LRT station. The spotlight here is on their Korean style shave ice, Bingsu. However, they do serve hot food here. This is the bimbab I orderd. Somewhere around RM 15+. They call themselves "Best Bingsu in Town". I do agree with them. So far in the shave ice category, their texture and mouthfeel is the best among those I tried. Basically they are using a milk based bingsu, and they add different toppings on top. Their bingsu is very soft, smooth, and literary melts in your mouth.  Injeolmi Red Bean - Injeolmi means rice cake (the two white colour bits on top of this bingsu). The bingsu is covered with roasted soy bean flavour with a hint of red bean paste on top. (RM 24++) Blueberry snow ice - Covered with blueberries, blueberry syrup and chunks of cheesecake, this bingsu is more flavourful compared to the Injeolmi Red ...

Touch from strangers

When I was pregnant, there will be somebody that touches my baby bump without asking me consent. After my baby was born, seeing my baby being touched by strangers also doesn't feel good to me. Not only because of the germs lurking on their finger tips, I also felt disrespect as the person is invading our personal space and boundaries. Unwanted touching is always inappropriate, and it is a difficult and awkward to reject touch from a stranger. Most of the time it happened so fast that the person was gone before I could react. I know this word might sound heavy, but sometime I do felt "harassed". Of course, I can do my part to stop people to touch my baby. Like telling off strangers to stay away, putting up "NO touching" signs, and putting up mosquito net to create a barrier. Doing these is effective, but awkward as well. It will be great that if everyone could educate themselves about respecting people's space and boundaries, especially for baby b...
