Hello all on a lazy Saturday.

Due to work arrangement I come back every fortnight. For sure back in maalaysia I like to spend time with my family. We like nice unique food/resturrant.

This few months,

I have tried Greek, Spanish, Argentinian.

Find that good one either has a long queue or long drive
Nowadays I find it better to learn recipes while far2 away
Then come back home to cook/bake

These days I value my time more than money.

When my family is with me I cook. Now my time is limited rather go out eat.. like my dad before he retire he doesn't cook. After retire he learnt all the recipes from YouTube. Now I think he is a better cook than my mom. He bakes cheese cake , salted egg fried chicken etc.

Maybe when I retire.

while waiting for recommendation, can you share your place for Greek, Spanish, Argentinian ?

can try vegetable dishes at Table and Apron at Damansara Kim. They have their bakery shop next door too.
some their iconic is eggplant with scallion pesto, tempura sweet potatoes with ricotta or Roasted Cauliflower with Ricotta Spread
Their bakery shop is good for breakfast too with fresh bakes and sweet desserts. seats are very limited, so please go early in weekend. No joke when you seeing old couple queening up outside the shop

Greek- I tried at Mazi. Quite good. price was reasonable as well at Bukit tunku

Spanish - Poblano lorong Chulan


Ori Atlas - Cheras - food was nice but I think a tad pricey

talked about HK style . today ended up at Lamp Hot pot. I assume it's HK style because its wallpaper deco has honkie flare.

not bad 8/10 but very bad for health.

bad news is my boy dropped my phone and now screen crack

You're quite adventurous in trying cuisines from lesser known countries.

I've been eating a variety of unique cuisines too;

- Northern Indian
- Pakistani
- Sri Lankan
- Yemeni
- Turkish
- Syrian
- Philippines
- Vietnamese
- Northern China
- Central China

Of course, I also go for the more common ones e.g. Thai, Japanese, masakan Melayu, Nyonya, Southern Indian, Indon etc

Not sure how to recommend.

What's your goal or priority? Ambiance, distance, uniqueness?
*
wow nice.

Northern - tried many times- its more creamy and less spicy than southern
Vietnamese - been there many time so not really my favorite
Central CHina - been to Beijing and Shanghai- so I assume the taste are similar

This would be interesting. please recommend

- Pakistani
- Sri Lankan
- Yemeni
- Turkish (been to Turkey for a layover, didn't't really try much of their food but I would assume pretty much mediterranean style)
- Syrian
- Philippines


for me for sure distance>uniqueness . within KL would be nice.

I think the pasta is nice. Better than natalina
*
My son had a very good pasta(crab meat pasta) at Mazi. Very reasonable price too. Around rm30


Didn't take photo of the pasta coz it's rather normal looking.

Below here are some other foods we ordered.

My fav le .. raw oyster, Foie gras, escargot .. enjoy much in France .. hehe

Never been to France. But wife been there like foie gras but not too much. Similar to wagyu can be too fatty.

Of all the raw oyster my wife will harp about the bluff oyster in NZ ..even after 10 years plus.

yes- it could be too oily for some.

As alternative- i do purchase online- approx Rm 600/kg/ either steak cut or yakiniku cut.
recently also going to WMArt - they have nice selection

          > Aust wagyu around rm 450-500 /kg
          > Japanese Wagyu around RM 850 /kg
and 20% discout if purchase in a block.  very much worth it.
another choice is Jyu Jyu yakiniku..... Just rm 200 per pax, buffet with 300g of Aust wagyu+ various dessert. and other beef cutting as well. Free flow
*
When I first started makan Japanese wagyu. I saw rm699/kg wah so cheap. Turns out its not the choice cut. Basically the oyster blade or the rump.

Your Japanese rm850 is what cut ? Sirloin? Usually those not in block is around rm1299-1599/kg for sirloin

Anyway. I think these days I prefer Aust wagyu. Not too fatty and you csn sear it. With Japanese wagyu Hardy can have charred surface.

Hokkaido Table Trx

Food quite good. Despite the empty tables. But portion very small
