With The Berry-licious Stories
Dim sum is something I craved the most during the MCO lockdown time. The piping hot steamy siu mai or har gao, to pair along with mini cups of tie guan yin Chinese hot tea. That’s how dim sum it should be. If you ask …
I miss Bangkok so much! First thing to do after landing and settling the luggage – FOOD! EAT THAI FOOD! We randomly picked a place nearby that serves lip-smacking Thai food. Not sure if we were too hungry or we missed authentic Thai food very …
An ultimate hidden gem that is mysteriously hidden inside the Kampung Cheras Baru neighbourhood, offering a series of heart-wowing menu made of tummy comforting dishes. To be honest, I have never noticed the existence of this place… until just recently; I saw Esther posted in on social media. Immediately I planned for a visit.
Restaurant Fook Kee 福記炖湯補品小炒
Located inside this Kampung Cheras Baru or so-called 六哩村 , Restaurant Fook Kee is a no-frill Chinese restaurant, offering a wide variety of comfort dishes, claypot braised meat and the signature soothing double-boiled soup such as black bean ribs soup, ginseng soup, sea coconut chicken soup, pork ribs soup and many more.
We had a steamed fish, beancurd, pork dish, deep-fried sotong, and 2 soups, our total bill came around Rm 210 for the 6 of us, including rice and tea. Reservation is highly recommended because they are always crowded and full house during weekends.
Coconut Chicken 椰子鸡 (Rm 20 each)
One of their signatures and also the must order. Served piping hot, the soup was heavily packed with essence of the chicken and coconut water; sweet and very nutritious! This was sold out in a blink too. We were there for lunch at 12pm, and those who came at 1plus didn’t get to have this as the next round for these coconut chicken soups will be at 3pm (we overheard).

It has been a real long while since my last flew out of the country. I went to Bangkok two weeks ago and felt super refreshing after the trip. Oh Bangkok. I have missed you so much! So, it was my brother and cousin’s first …
Back to my favourite comforting Japanese restaurant in Plaza Damas 3 – Yoshinari, this round I was there to try their Tempura Course which is only available at lunch, and it was also after 2 months of waiting (nowadays everything also have to make reservation in advance or very advance)!
Yoshinari’s Tempura Lunch Course is pretty satisfying. For just Rm 80 you will get a variety of tempura veggies, meat and fish, appetizer, soup and end with a rice dish. The tempura is lightly battered and not greasy at all. You may dip in the tempura with its tempura sauce and grated radish, or the salt and pepper provided. I like my meat with the salt and pepper, while the veggies with the tempura sauce and grated radish.
I have not been to any other places to try out their tempura course but I will definitely revisit Yoshinari again for this course.
Read more here on my previous visit ; and here for November 2021 Chef’s Tasting Menu and January 2022 Chef’s Tasting Menu .

But… first thing first, a highball for me and my friend!
