Imbi Hawkers


Sexy legs! HAHAHA!

Ok, for those who went "huh? what?" well, ... it's just me. I just find the roasted golden brown chicken wings resembles the ladies legs a lot.

Anyway I had these chicken wings (6 for RM12) at the Jalan Imbi hawker area for dinner during one of the nights I was working late with colleagues. It was just so so.


Beside the chicken wings stall was the satay stall. My colleague ordered the chicken satay. A wee bit on the oily side but I think I could have had more of these. Very flavorful, crispy on the outside, but really moist on the inside. Thumbs up for this chicken satay. This was one of the best chicken satay I have tasted recently.


Also in the same hawker area; this famous YTF stall. I heard quite a number of good reviews but..


...some how I wasn't really into it. I couldn't figure what was special about it. The soup taste ok, the tofu was as smooth as any tofu, the stuffing was ordinary. Maybe I was expecting too much?


Last but not least, I ordered the pork mix porridge "chu chap choke" (RM3.50) for myself. Very plain pork mix porridge.

You Lek Cheras

I was kind of looking thought my old collecting dust and bugs drafts on Blogger trying to feel if I had the mood to blog any of them. That is when I saw this. I wonder if Jason and WMWremembers this food crawl long ago at Jalan You Lek....

Let's see what I can or cannot remember.


This is WMW's favorite chee cheong fun stall. True or False? True. (It is also true that WMW loves her CCF.. any CCF)


All the "liew" for the chee cheong fun.


WMW come here to have the pink pork ball. True or False? True. (But I don't think all pork balls are pink. I still prefer the ones processed with the chopper and is brown in color when cooked)


This pau stall is located at the starting of the road... some where in You Lek. True or false? True (Jason, you most probably have to correct me, the road name is You Lek right?)


I bought this siew mai from the pau stall. If my memory serves me correctly, there were bigger that the normal siew mai and tasted quite good.


Jason's red bean pau which tasted too sweet for him, but was ok for me and WMW.


Last but not least, the loh mai fan. Can't remember how this taste like... hmm...

Meals Station

I have been having lunch at Meals Station in Wisma UOA near Suria KLCC quite often since they open. Many mixed reviews on this place, and I can see why.


I personally find the food here value for money. While some of the dishes are just so so, I have found a few of my favorite dishes here as well. But what turns me off is the service. It's not the lack of attention, but everything seems slow moving here.


Butter and Kaya Toast (RM1.50 for plain bread) (RM2.50 for wholemeal bread) Very standard stuff.


Curry Noodles (RM7.90). This was my first dish I tried on their launching day. I did like the curry, but the coconut milk in it kind of made me feel uneasy. Then again, I'm not a very big fan of curry santan noodles.


The Dry Curry Noodles (RM6.90) is more me. Totally love the fragrant from the dry curry and the chicken served with the bowl of noodles is always soaked well with curry. The deep fried onions on top gives the dish a big plus.


Meals Fried Rice (RM8.90) is something very common. But for those who likes simple fried rice, this is the rice to order.


The Fried Chicken Rice (RM9.90) is another dish I enjoy. The fried chicken comes with either plain rice or nasi lemak, your choice. The fried chicken slightly crunchy on the outside, and on the inside soft juicy meat.


Kurma Chicken (RM9.90) was a little disappointing. I kind of expected to get something hot, or at least warm. But this is one cold chicken. The taste didn't impress me much, maybe because it was too cold. No aroma, lack of the spice flavor.


I actually choked on the beef piece of this Beef Rendang Rice (RM8.90) at the first bite. Hehe.. the chili went down the wrong tube. I can't really tell you how this tasted because the whole choking killed my taste buds the day I had the beef.


Last but not the least, the Curry Chicken Rice (RM8.90). I prefer the fried chicken rice to this. The curry chicken didn't give me the kick the fried chicken or the dry curry did.

In summary, I have my favorites, and have those I don't like. I have been eating here, and will continue to have my yum yum dry curry noodles... but do hope they can improve on their service.
