Dinner at Woo Lan

Woo Lan is a fully air-conditioned Chinese restaurant situated in a quiet corner of Brickfields facing the down ramp of Jalan Istana. I was there back in 2009 with a few of my friends for dinner. We ordered the following dishes to fill up our tummy.

Stir-fried sweet potato leaves (RM 12.00)
Our only green for the night. This stir fried sweet potato leaves are fried with chilli padi and lots of huge chops of garlic. The addition of garlic makes this dish more fragrant while the chilli padi make it slightly spicy. Becareful when eating this dish because if you are not careful, you might bite into the chilli padi which can make you cry cause the chillis are really hot.

Great!

Homemade Beancurd with Minced Meat
This is a superb dish. The beancurd used is off good quality which doesn't have the bad sour taste as found in some not fresh tofu. The tofu is soft and smooth. Lots of minced meat were given, as can be seen from the picture the plate is full of minced meat. Besides, the gravy accompanying the tofu and meat were good as well cause it is not very salty. Just nice to go with plain rice.

Great!

Pa Wong Chicken
This chicken dish is my favorite for the night because of its appetizing sweet taste. The chicken cutlets were deep fried and then immersed in a sweet sauce containing honey.

D'Tau Heritage Food Village @ Brickfields

Saw this new restaurant review on the Star newspaper last year. Quite attractive food choice they have. Thus, mum and myself went to D'Tau Heritage Food Village @ Brickfields to try out their dishes. But in terms of price, it is slightly on the high side.

D'Tau is situated strategically in the heart of the city's public transportation hub, KL Central which sets to present city folks with a homely dining experience. Loosely translated as "local Chinese food", D'Tau offers a wide range of well cooked local Chinese food.

D'Tau's architecture consisted of old Penang Chinese cum Peranakan cozy feel. Their concept is to take patrons back down memory lane to days where you are having a nice warm meal with the family at home, with the right ambiance and settings to put you in the perfect mood.

Since there were only the two of us, we ordered only 2 dishes with steamed rice.

Moe Sheik Spare Ribs (RM 18)
I love the taste of the gravy, not sure what they used to make the gravy but it was really good. And the pork ribs' meat were tender too; not too tough or too soft. Good food to smack up with rice.....

Bitter gourd Prawn Omelet (RM13.50)
Tasted very normal like ordinary omelet.....nothing special but the prawns they put in are decent in size............

Some of the other dishes offered at D'Tau

Total damage including 5 % tax + rice + water = RM 37.50
