新九如牛肉粉 ~ San Kao Yu Beef Noodles

老爸最爱的牛肉粉档...Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
新九如牛肉粉档位于瓷厂街的凤凰饼家同一排店铺角头店旁的后巷...
在我的记忆中我还很小的时候这家档已经在这里营业了
之前只在傍晚六点过后开档到深夜
现在白天也在附近的咖啡店开档
This is dad's favourite beef noodles store...
located at the end of the shoplot same row as Foong Wong Biscuit shop at Petaling Street
it had been in business at the same location since i was young
previously this store only opens after 6pm till midnight
however now they are also opened during day time at one of the corner coffee shops along Petaling Street area



老板娘在准备食物:
她有两位好帮手 虽然都不是本地人 可是他们的广东话都说得不错哦...
应付我们这些食客卓卓有余 ~
the lady boss in action:
she also has two foreign workers as assistants which can take order in Cantonese, cool ~





传统的竹筷和辣椒酱:
辣椒酱是特别调制来配牛肉和牛杂的 ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
very old fashion bamboo chopsticks and chili sauce:
the chili sauce is the best and complimented the beef slices or mix beef well ~





牛肉片 (RM5):
RM5 的价钱超值!!
份量蛮多的...
牛肉都切得比较薄和大片
嫩嫩的牛肉... 沾不沾辣椒酱一样好味道 ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
the beef slices soup (RM5):
for RM5 this is really worth it !!
the beef slices are big and thinly sliced while not over cooked
one slice per mouthful... heavenly with or without the chili sauce ~





牛杂 (RM5):
有牛肉片, 牛肚, 牛肉丸等等...
都煮得恰到好处
汤头很清甜美味
没有味精的感觉
就算有也是下了非常少而已...
The mix beef (RM5):
a little bit of everything...
everything is well prepared, tender and flavoursome
the soup is clear and delicious too
din sense any presence of MSG even if there is they are kept at the very minimal level ~







因为这是我们的宵夜所以我们只吃料而已...
好吃的食物和合理的价钱... 我们都很满足
Non of us had the beef noodles as this is our supper and we only have enough space in our stomach for the best !!
Food is delicious and prices reasonable what else can we ask for ? Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

老西公饭店 ~ Restoran Sai Gong

teckiee 的部落格里看到的...
最初我是被螃蟹和田鸡所吸引的可是她也推荐说鱉/水魚也是不可错过的
我们就去试试咯 ~
Recommended by teckiee ...
first i was attracted by the crabs and frogs in her blog and she also recommended the waterfish
so here we go ~



很特别的店名...
根据店主所说以前他小的时候那是他的花名
"西公"是福建话也就是光头的意思
他也说在槟城也有一家叫老西公的饭店不同的是那家饭店的主厨都是女性
a very unique name...
according to the shop owner that was his nickname when he was small
"sai gong" is in Hokkien which is used to describe bald/skin head
he told us that in Penang there is also a Sai Gong Restaurant but the difference is all the chef are ladies ~





虽然板上都写明了菜单
可是我们都没去看因为主要的几样菜肴在看过 teckiee 的部落格我早就记了起来...
Menu on the board:
we dun really read from here as i already had a few dishes to order which i remember by heart after reading teckiee's blog ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket





蠶豆:
饭前小食...
Board beans:
the snack served before meal...





免费的列汤 ~ 西洋菜汤:
汤很清也很够味....
Soup of the day ~ Watercress soup
this is served FOC before the food
the soup is clear and flavoursome while not oily at all...





清炒菜胆 (RM6):
很够锅气
可惜菜比较老了点...
Stir-fried brussel sprouts (RM6):
with "wok hei" but we find the veggie too old...





三杯田鸡 (RM22):
妈妈说三杯的意思是用一杯醬油、一杯米酒和一杯麻油煮成的
田鸡很多肉而肉都很有弹性
不可以错过哦 ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Three-Cup Frog (RM22):
according to mum this is cooked with a cup of soya sauce, a cup of rice wine and a cup of sesame oil...
look at the frog ~ so fresh and the meat is succulent and bouncy... yummy !!
a must try...





油浸马友鱼 (RM27):
这鱼也煮得很好吃
外层香脆里面却鲜美多汁...
Deep fried Treadfin/Ikan Kurau (RM27):
this fish is also very delicious with crispy outer layer and juicy meat inside...





瓦煲鱉/水魚 (RM50):
最好吃的!!Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
这里的瓦煲水魚煮得很好吃
我们最喜欢的是水魚裙
可是水魚肉比较多
每只水魚的裙不多可是却是最好吃的地方 ~
Clay pot turtle/waterfish (RM50):
this is best of the best !!
the waterfish is so tasty... we love the waterfish "skirt"
however not many pieces were found as a waterfish only have limited "skirt" and that is the most delicious part of the waterfish ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket





椰汁虾 (RM24):
虾很好味... Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
很有奶油的味道可是却叫着椰汁虾
就如 teckiee 的部落格里的螃蟹一样的煮法
是用牛奶和奶油煮得很像椰汁的味道所以店主就用椰汁来命名...
Coconut Prawns (RM24):
this prawn is also flavoursome...
tasted very buttery but wonder why it is named coconut prawns
probably the same style of cooking as the crab in teckiee's blog
look at the gravy ~ thick and yummy





姜葱啦啦 (RM12):
很后悔叫了这个
啦啦不新鲜而这种炒法的酱粘粘的...
我们都不喜欢
Stir-fried clams with ginger and spring onion (RM12):
we dun like this as the clams are not fresh and this is fried with lots of sticky brown sauce... eeeeee.....





清蒸螃蟹 (RM46):
下了很多姜丝和蛋白
螃蟹新鲜, 大只又多肉...
很肯定不是泥蟹因为壳都不太厚和硬
很好吃 ~ Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Steamed crab with egg white (RM46):
the crab is fresh, big and meaty...
definately not those mud crab with super hard shell
so delicious ~








请留意哦...Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
通常是星期二或星期四休息
如果想要在这两天去吃的话记得先打电话问问要不然就白走一趟咯 ~
Please take note that they are closed either on Tuesday or Thursday
to be on the safe side please call before you go ~
