Kelantan Delight: Sooka KL

I actually miss Kelantan Malay Food so much. Kelantan is famous for its own Malay delicacies such as
1. Budu: a type of fish sauce made from Anchovies, taken as chilli sauce
2. Nasi Dagang: red color rice, normally eat with curry chicken or curry fish
3. Nasi Kelabu :blue color rice mixed with raw vegetables, sometimes with fried chicken and/or salted egg
4. Ayam Percik: Roasted chicken with creamy coconut chilli sauce
5. Ulam: Raw vegetables normally to be consumed with budu
6. Akok: a type of soft fluffy locally made kuih similar to pancake

A restaurant in Sooka Sentral offers great taste of Kelantanese delicacies!

Mushroom behind my house?

One day when i was back home, i found something strange behind my house. I have never seen all these white color creatures growing behind my house before.



Mother started to seek professional advice from our neighbours. To our surprise, it's a type of local mushroom, grow only during a certain season during a whole year! It can be as rare as growing only once in a whole year at that certain place. It purely depends on the soil humidity(after rain), and also sunlight content to grow. However, precaution should be taken when consuming this type of rare mushroom with other type of food to avoid food-poisoning.



Look at the back of the white mushroom. It looks like fan.



Our neighbours were very happy that afternoon as they get more than 5 big bags of free fresh natural rare mushroom!

Di-Atas Brasserie High Tea Buffet: Legend Hotel, KL

The Legend Hotel High Tea Buffet provides international cuisine such as western, Thailand, Japanese, as well as local Malaysian Malay, Chinese and Indian food. There are lots of choices, from main course, to dessert. The only limitation is that they don't provide much seafood. However, the place was almost full house during my visit. It may be due to the affordable price range for hotel style buffet.

A variety of western food: Burger, Pizza, Pasta..


Local Nasi Beriani with dishes,



Local Chinese and Malay cuisine,



There are a few special stations such as:
1. Sandwich station, where you can make your own sandwiches from tuna, bacon, vegetables, cheese, etc.
2. Pancake station. The pancakes are made on the spot, and you can add fruits jam, peanut butter, or honey, as much as you wish..
3. Chocolate fountain. Children will be very happy to dip the "fruit-satay"
4. Roasted lamb ribs. It should taste nice as it finishes quite fast.
5. ABC Ice kacang station. Just put cubes of ice into auto blended machine and mix with cendol, red beans, jelly, etc.



They have lots of dessert, in various variety, such as cakes, danish and local kuih.


This is interesting, the French dessert called Creme Brulee! It's similar to egg pudding, with a thin layer of caramel on top. But it comes in a super small portion.
