And long time buddy Misiter KY ... the hero of the day! Hes actually asking that fler in the pikcher to pay him back his otang .... look at his fierce face!

This fler also very fierce when hungry ... so if u see him eating ... my advice is dun go near la! LOL

Lengjai Nuffy AhLob and Chingy

Dar Food

Italian Meenbao (wholemeal bread) with vinegar and olive oil. Dinner start quite late ... that why they gibe us meenbao to wallop 1st ... some table sapu the meenbao till the plate clean clean man!

Why eat meenbao must put vinegar and olive oil? hah!!! this one high crass thing u Ahbeng derno one la! Tell u also waste gas! LOL! If u wanna know u blanja me eat there again then i teach u la!

Californian Shrimp Salad

Then when all the broggers arrived ledi the 1st dish they served is California Shrimp Salad. How the taste? I derno! I only eat the Prawn la! Why? Fully utilise stomach safe space mah! Later got good thing to eat leh!

It seems like no one knows whats the name of this dish ... simply put ... its a thin crust pizza la!

How izzit? Ok .. not bad also ... but doesnt seems to be able to supplies my taste bud, i was actually expecting a SUPPLIES but tarak ... or prolly i too hungry liow? lol

Quattro Platter

Next is Quattro Platter, Quattro means ampat/sei/four (see? i eat italian food ledi can understand italian liow wei!) kinda like our chinese four season dish lidat la but this one in italian style which is consist of 4 types of deep fried varieties. Dip flied Kalah-mali (calamary), Dip flied onion ring and seaweed (i think) and 2 balls ... i mean 2 tpes of balls with cheese/mushroom stuffing inside.

SUPPLIES element? none detected orso

Sicilian Pizza

This one is Sicilian pizza! this pizza very powderful one! Why powderful? If you eat ledi u can bekam more "fierce" wan! Most of the Sicilian Taikos in Italy eat this to bekam fierce one la! U say powder anot?!

SUPPLIES element? Got abit la .... but still was expecting more.

Lamb Shank

No no no ... not lamb shag ... i know u Ahbengs know what is lamb shag but this is not that kinda lamb .... no shagging involved ok?

Lamb shank means : Lamb shank is cut from the arm of shoulder, contains leg bone and part of round shoulder bone, and is covered by a thin layer of fat and fell

This is prolly the fastest "gone" dish that nite. If you think "Gone in 60 seconds" is fast ... u should really see how we wallop the lamb shank in less than 20 seconds! Bcoz it was too mouth watering extralicious ... some of the bargers were trying to weck the bone as well! (not me ok?! NOT ME!!!)

The lamb shank were perfectly done, superbly tender and needless to say exrremely juicy .... almost melt in your mouth wan! ... eat ledi dream also will remember the taste sial!!!

SUPPLIES element? Phuhlamak!!! Best of the best la!

Then finally .... the HERO of the nite kamout to play ....

Mind you ... this one is a new dish ... only a few privilaged one get to taste it first .... and I happened to be one of them la! (dun jeles can?!)

Ladies and Genitalmen ... I present sama lu ..... latest recomendation of Italiannies Chef's kitchen ....

The Bowls of Pasta











SUPPLIES element? If u r a pasta lober .... DIE DIE also must try!!!!

How should i decribe the kinda culinary experience this dish given to me .... being a cooker someone who loves to cook, this dish opened my eyes to a new fusion of taste and possibilities. Who would thot of Apple and pasta could actually create a fusion of taste thats beyond one would expect?

Yea you heard me rite! Apple and pasta (thats just one of them pasta among the 10 different kinda pasta served to us) Another unforgettable tastebud teasing bowl of pasta would be the Garlic and mushroom, such a simple combination and yet so fulla suprises!

And lucky me ... by the time they serve the Bowl of Pasta ... most of the broggers is either busy camwhoring or already full jor .... remembered the utilisation os stomach space i told you about in the beggining of the food section? Well it helped! I almost have the whole Bowls of Pasta to myself!!!

Too bad there is no free refills ... if not i would still be there till they close shop!!! LOL!

I would like to send my compliment to the chef but too bad we didnt have time for that. If the chef of Italiannies is reading this (chances are slim to none ... i know) I would like to thank you for a job welldone!

To Nuffnang boss and staffs ... Thank you for allowing me to tag along to such a pretigious food tasting event, some guy told me that once you been invited to one the chances are slim to none that you will be invited to the next Nuffnang Sharing Session .... but nebermind ... I will stalk 9 Ahlob and bug 9 him till he cracks up and lemme go again wan!!! I will SUPPLIES him wann!!!! Ahlob u just wait!!!!

Dragon-i here i kam again!

menu *again*

Braised Peanuts - Apetizer [RM2.00]

Never ordered any braised peanut as apetizer also .... mch at 1st i thot free wan! mana tau at the end kena sucker-ED RM2.00 you know?!!! MCB!

Siu Long Bao [上海小龙包] 4 pcs - [RM8.00]

Siu Long Bao Closeup, you can see the gravy within at the bottom of the dumplings

Jelly Fish in Sesame Oil [凉拌葱油海哲皮] - [RM14.00]

Saute Dry Chili Chicken [四川辣子鸡] - [RM18.00]

Drunken Chicken 花雕醉酒鸡 - [RM 14.00]

This is what we ordered :

1] Siu Lung Bao - Little Dragon dumplings [上海小龙包]
2] Jelly fish in sesame oil [凉拌葱油海哲皮]
3] Saute Dry Chili Chicken [四川辣子鸡]
4] Drunken Chicken [花雕醉酒鸡]
5.] White Plain Rice [白米饭]

We ordered 4 dishes plus rice ... no more noodles of coz.

1.] Siu Lung Bao [上海小龙包] - Little Dragon dumplings - Erm .. ok lar this is still the best dish in Dragon-i even tho the suprise element is not there anymore, nevertheless its still an enjoyable dish.

I tried to bite hard onnit and hope that the gravy will shoot out and landed on my col face ... apparently i failed lol!

Verdict : I think I m alredi bored with this Siu Long Bao lol!

2.] Jelly fish in sesame oil [凉拌葱油海哲皮] - Nice presentation, red chillis, brownish jellyfish with green spring onions. Smells nice as it was prepared with sesame oil as one of the main garnish.

The food texture is as good as it gets! Crunchy, aromatic and properly seasoned! For those who loves Hoijit [海哲] this is a must try dish in Dragon-i! You can surely bet your money onnit!

Best part is .. for RM14 I think its a great bargain, the portion is not small either!

Verdict : Great Value for Marney! VERY VERY TASTY!!! ICHIBAN!! MUST TRY!!!



3] Saute Dry Chili Chicken [四川辣子鸡] - Its comes in a basket! Pretty neat rite? Presentation wise its really attractive with red dried chilis as the main color followed by brownish deep fried chicken and green pepper and curry leaves.

Very aromatic! the smells of freshly fried curry leave and green pepper and dried chillis indeed able to create this very nice fusion mixture of aroma.

The texture and the taste of the fried chicken are not bad, but there arent any suprise element presents. You kinda know how it taste like before your take your first bite. Taste just like the fried chicken your mum made! lol!

Portion wise ... well .... The main dish is the chicken and yet i cant help but thinking we are ordering dried chillis instead. Look at the below pic and see for yourself.



This is how much dried chillis leftover after we are done with the chicken.

Verdict : For RM18.00 bucks, I would prolly order something else.



4] Drunken Chicken [花雕醉酒鸡] - This is a cold dish, noticed the shaved ice they place on top of the chicken? contrary to popular beliefs .... No! those chicken are not force to drink alchohol till they are drunk before they are slaughtered! Drunken chicken means chinese wine are being use in the preparation of this dish only!

This is not really a colourful dish but it does looks a bit mysterious, kinda like you take one look at it then .. you felt the urge to take a bite.

Taste and texture, I dont think they mastered the use of chinese cooking wine in a cold dish just yet, wine are never meant to standout in most of the dishes that uses them. Most of the time wine is only there to compliment and to bring out the flavour instead of taking over the taste of the whole dish alltogether, I cant taste no shit chicken at all! Might as well just drink chinese cooking wine only rite?!!

Verdict : Portion wise, i think prolly bcoz we dint really enjoyed it .... we dint really care whether its big enuff for both of us anot? LOL!!! Need i Say more? For RM14.00, i might as well goto kopitiam and order whole chicken for myself.

Dun ask me go this place again anytime soon ok? I need a break! And i certainly dun wanna die of food poisoning anytime soon!

DRAGON-i Cheras Leisure Mall

They opened a new branch in Cheras Leisure Mall and after reading bout DRAGON-i in a few blogs (with both positive and negative reviews) I thought I should go there and try it out myself.

Lung Dik Chuen Yan Dragon-i

Meal for 2

Siu Long Bao - Little Dragen Dumplings

Meat & Vege Dumplings


War Tip (derno wtf its call in engrish)

We ordered 3 types of dumplings just to see whether they are as good as they claimed anot.

1.] Siu Long Bao (Little Dragon Dumplings) - This arrived 1st ... it was quite a fantastic dish really. Taste were great and the experience of having soup shoot outta your dumplings is priceless. Almost at par with the Shanghai Siu Long Bao.

2.] Meat & Vege Dumplings - Very colorful! Nice presentation! despite the look ... the moment u took a bite you will wonders ... "eh .. why taste like Siu Long Bao wan?"

3.] War Tip - Looks boring ... white white lidat with no presentation at all! Took a bite and "WTF?!! same taste again??!!!"

Verdict : If u wanna order dumplings in DRAGON-i ...... just order one type will do, they all freaking taste the same wan! Thats how innovative they are!

Ngau Lam Lai Meen - Beef tendon noodles

Lai Meen Wantan Tong - Wantan Soup Ramen

Ramen up close

Wantan

I am a noodle kinda person, I grow up helping my mum selling noodles therefore I m more fond of noodle than rice. I believe there should be different kinda noodle to accompany different kinda dish, not only different texture but also different kinda taste and spices too.

1.] Ngau Lam Lai Meen (Beef tendon noodles) - The Ngau Lam is nice and tender, kinda tasty too but nothing outa the ordinary and The Noodle is totally =.="" (sweating/lauhon/berpeluh) ... the noodle is tasteless (felt like chewing on wet tissue paper when u eating it), no texture (not springy, too soft) totally koyaked! The soup ... sigh*

2.] Ramen Wantan Soup Noodle - Wantan taste like Siu Long Bao which taste like War Tip whiche also tasted like Meat Vege Dumplings. Soup is tasteless, noodle is not up to expectations, its the same noodle as the one they used in Ngau Lam Meen (elo? if i paid RM18 bucks for a bowl of Ramen wantan noodle, I should expect alot rite?) Overall .... I really wished i never paid RM18 for a bowl of Wantan meen here!

Verdict : Forget bout noodle ok? Dont even think bout it .... you should just go for rice dishes instead!
