Peng Heong Hakka Paikut

It was one of the lazy Sundays where we hang around the house doing nothing. Since our usual makan kakis called us and wanted to come over to our place to play our new bought Wii, we decided to venture into Klang town to have our lunch. Our lunch destination today is Peng Heong Hakka Paikut Restaurant located in the Klang town centre (somewhere nearby the Mosque). This is our first time in this place. We reach about 11 am plus and it was already almost full with people. We had a look at their menus and they offered different varieties of Hakka dishes. Their pricing were reasonable ranging from RM6, 8 and 10 and 12. For those who wanted to samples different types of dishes at one go, you can basically ordered RM6 for few different types of dishes; that was what we did for our lunch.

Their menu.

Hakka Paikut. Juicy and tender. Thumbs up! RM6 only for quite a big portion.

Hakka Char Yoke aka Meatballs. Each meatball cost RM1. Another thumbs UP!

Pig Trotter in Black Vinegar (RM6) - above average for my taste. However my 2 of the makan kakis said that it was good.

Mutton Curry. Another RM 6. Thumbs up!

Lettuce in Oyster Sauce.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the place. Their service was fast and food was good and reasonable. I'll definitely put this place in my usual makan place list. Overall damage for this meal is around RM40 plus.

Herbal Tea

During unpredictable weather like what we are facing in Malaysia, it's best to take herbal tea in order to reduce the 'heatiness' in our body. We can either order this 'leong sui/leong char' in the Chinese restaurant or we can even boil it in our home. The pre-pack herbal tea is widely sold in all the Chinese medicinal hall. A packet of the herbal tea ingredients cost around RM4-8 (depends on the ingredients inside). The process of boiling the drink is very simple.

First, we need to rinse the herbs. Put the herbs into a pot and add enough water. Bring it to boil for 1-2hours. Add in rock sugar to taste.

Filter out the herbs.

A glass of herbal tea for you to enjoy. For those who prefer to take their drinks cold, you can actually put the herbal tea in the fridge.

With such a simple steps, it's definitely not an excuse for us to prepare a refreshing and healthy herbal tea drink at the comfort of our own home.

Fruit Rojak

There's a few first in this post. This is my first time making Rojak; first time using our blender; first time cutting up a pineapple (and it is a tedious job - for me of course) and the most importantly the day that I made this Rojak was our First Year Wedding Anniversary. Sure lot's of firsts. We had this for our breakfast on our anniversary. Weird combination for breakfast but what the heck rite. As long as both of us enjoy it.

I am using the Rojak sauce that we had bought in our Penang trip. I had roasted the peanuts earlier and blend it to ground peanuts using the blender. Basically we can put any types of fruits that we like and make it into Fruit Rojak. I have yam bean (sengkuang), pineapples, cucumber, mangoes and water apples. Cut the fruits, drizzled them with the sauce and ground peanuts and tossed them all together. Our Rojak is ready to be served.

Before tossing them with the sauce.

I had put a lot of ground peanuts in the Rojak coz I love peanuts! Yumz..
