新版阿给

Sometime back, saw that this restaurant in Citilink is serve ring Taiwanese food. Took a look at the menu, there are typical Taiwanese food, however I found some interesting dishes in the menu……. '棺材板' and '阿给'. I had tried '阿给' long time ago when I traveled in Taiwan and I missed the food. As there was a long queue outside the restaurant, thus I did not queue to go in during that moment.

Finally, I went there to have dinner tonight. I ordered the '阿给' and Taiwanese Fried Chicken Chop rice. The Fried Chicken Chop rice is a normal type where the chicken meat is coated with Sweet Potato flour and deep fried. However, when '阿给' was served to my table….. I asked:” what is this?”….. the server said “It’s '阿给'!”.

我当场傻眼了!!! This is NOT '阿给'!!!! It is just a '酿豆干'!!!!

I think if my Taiwanese friends see this….. fainted men!!!

The actual version of '阿给' is using '油豆腐' (or so called '豆卜') stuffed with '冬粉' and use '鱼浆' to seal the opening.

Makan in City Square, JB

Went to JB to fix up my glasses ...... same time to try out this restaurant in City Square as recommended by a friend. The restaurant name is 《客人来》and it is located in a corner at the second floor. The restaurant mainly served Hakka dishes...... I ordered 卤肉面 and 洋参菊花茶.

The noodle and the drink not bad........ the chilli sauce is very nice..... a bit like 虾米辣.....

My friends ordered some cooked dishes..... stewed soup, steamed mince meat with salted fish (咸鱼蒸猪肉), fried pork and mince meat roll (五香卷).... Suddenly realized so much meat dishes....... hahaha

The cooked dishes were quite OK except the steamed mince meat with salted fish ......

cannot taste much of the salted fish....

On our way back to Custom, we took a different route (usually we use the bridge which connect City Square and JB Central). While crossing the road to the JB central... something smell nice....... found this Malay uncle selling pancake slightly away from the entrance to the JB central building. As the smell was so nice and cannot resist it, bought a few pieces home to try and it's only RM0.50 per piece. When reached home about 1 hour later, the pancake still has it's crispiness and taste is good.... Only have one flavour .... peanut with butter.
