Plan B @ Bangsar Village I, Kuala Lumpur

Spicy Aglio Oglio @ RM 14.00

Spaghetti sauteed with olive oil and slow roasted garlic and chilli. The first order that surprises my and my colleague. Yea, we didn't read the menu properly. It's plain aglio oglio indeed.

Turkey Ham & Cheese Toastie @ RM 14.00

A simple favorite oozing melted cheese on country white bread with ham. Bread were toasted with butter on both sides, aromatic! My wholesome lunch-Yummy! Plan B serves both western food and asian food. Other than this, they serves variety of cakes and desserts. But...... too much to try on the same day and I was back the next day for take away! Yes, cakes! Let's see what we have tried.

Rocky Rocks @ RM 5.00

Macadamia Brownie @ RM 11.00 comes with melted chocolate

Strawberry Cheesecake @ RM 9.00 comes with strawberry toppings

Carrot Cake @ RM 9.00

Like their carrot cake. Unlike the moist and heavy carrot cakes, this is kinda light and fluffy. Nice!

Almond croissants @ RM 6.00

Chocolate croissant @ RM 6.00

Cappuccino served with biscotti

Latte served with biscotti

Coffee was good, cakes are on par. Besides good food, with it's stylish and contemporary design, Plan B is definitely a recommended place for coffee addicts or perhaps for a meet up.

Capital Delicious Seafood @ side lane of Jalan Kee Ann (Bunga Raya) Malacca

Jalan Kee Ann, also known as Bunga Raya is the China Town( Petaling Street ) of Malacca. Be it, day or night, you will be able to savior varrious of Chinese food here.

Few of the famous ones are- Teo Chew Porridge during day time ( I will cover this in my later post) , Fried Oyster and Wan Tan Noodles at night.

And what else? Here it is............ the cockles on the dark side lane. Stall I am covering this round- Capital Delicious Seafood (They don't really serve seafood actually)- infact the seafood serves are only cockles - see ham, lala & balitong.

Capital Delicious Seafood @ side lane of Jalan Kee Ann (Bunga Raya) Malacca

People waitng for seats. There are actually two stall soperating at the side lane. Heard that the first stall (Tong Bee)seems to be better. Not our luck, we were late that day and they were closed already. But then again, Capital Delicious Seafood seems good too.

The appetizing sweet and spicy chilli sauce with shrimp paste to go with the cockles.



Si Ham - Cockles- half boiled- just nice!



Lala
Besides si ham and lala, there are other choices like balitong, snails and mussels too.

Snack plate- friend bean curds skin with fist paste filling, springy fish balls top with peanuts and sweet lemon sauce and shrimp paste.

Sotong Kangkung- Fresh boiled cuttlefish with water spinach served with same sauce as the snack plate above.

Hhhmmmm... will try out Tong Bee stall next round. Got to be early, especially weekends! No doubt, Capital Delicious Seafood is worth trying too!

Restoran Barkat Roti John @ Tanjung Kling, Malacca

Now, here is another suggestion for snacks or perhaps supper in Malacca- Roti John @ Restoran Barkat, Tanjung Kling Malacca (Melaka). It's kinda hard to locate if you are not a local. Perhaps the locals can help though. The location is a lil' far but definitely worth a try!

Restoran Barkat Roti John @ Tanjung Kling, Malacca

The crowd is always there!

Fried noodles. Doesn't look good in this snap, taste wise- yes it's pleasing!

Ayam Golek Ala Timur- Well marinated, perfectly grilles and it's Great!

Roti John @ Restoran Barkat

Not so sure with the origin of Roti John, it's actually more like an omelette sandwich which is a popular snack in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. Somehow, there is one place in Melaka which is famous for Roti John- and it is Restoran Barkat!

Normally prepared with sardine/minced meat and eggs. The Restaurant Barkat version was much nicer as it is prepared with lots of pounded anchovies. Crispy and aromatic- flavorsome!

Address:

Barkat Roti John

Bali Cafe @ Jetty Malacca

Besides, satay celup or asam pedas, there are plenty of places for night snacks in Malacca!

Had a drinking and late night snacks session with my family at Bali Cafe. We have not tried their in-house dishes but we are delighted with the grilled food served by a lady-probably hired by the cafe owner? Not so sure though.....

Bali Cafe @ The Jetty, Malacca

BBQ Chicken @ RM 15.00
Grilled to perfection. Well marinated with spices- tasted good!

BBQ Mushroom @ RM 4.50
BBQ Long Bean @ RM 3.00

You wouldn't grill these at home, will you? Unless you are having a BBQ party ! Besides, pepper and salt- I wonder what are the other ingredients used. Yes, it's good, good & good.

BBQ Brinjal/Aubergine/Eggplant @ RM 6.00

Why on earth do we have so many names for just a particular vegetable/plant? I don't know! Anyway, the grilled BBQ brinjal was good too- grilled with pounded chilli and garlics, pepper and salt! Flavorful!

And, if you are grilling all these back at home, can you invite me over? Make sure it's nice though. *Grins*
