Restoran Peranakan @ One-U

26 January 2008....

Tonight TTT and Fishies gang going to watch the Movie Sweeney Todd. Due to raining outside, TTT decided to have their dinner inside One Utama.

Actually they wanted to try the nyonya food at Charms, but the shop was closed on that day, therefore, they changed their destination to another Nyonya restaurant at Restoran Peranakan.

CH ordered the Lima Margarita(non-liquor) for drinks. Try to taste the Margarita with the salt on the peripheral of the glass. CH was surprised that this Margarita was good without tequila.


First to come is Chicken Ponte, the chicken cooked with anis, potato and black soy sauce. This dish is similar to the old folks dish in Kelantan called "Hong-bak", which mean "closed-meat".


Second, this was neither the potato leaf neither Kang kong, but this was Paku, the Stir Fried Fungus Vegetable with Belacan. Luna's favourite.


Third was the Sweet Sotong, the Deep fried sotong with Sweet sauce dressing.


Forth was the Lemak Prawn, the Prawn cooked in the lemak-ful curry with Pineapple.


Fifth was the Curry Fish Fillet. Good, but CH still think the chinese can cook this dish better, hehehe..


Final was the Braise Tou-fu with Minced Chicken and Sweet Sour sauce.


The food in this restaurant is better than average. CH recommends the Paku and Chicken Ponte. If anyone need to try other Chicken Ponte, CH would recommend him to try in Melacca.
The bill is RM151.00. It is still reasonable. Everyone totally get full with all above mentioned dishes.
