Ban Ton Kao Restaurant @ Krabi, Thailand

My Rating for Ban Ton Kao: (5/6)

Ban Ton Kao - the name, with lush green plants all around. It has a pond, a paddy field, a playground and even a Ferris Wheel. Food was served by the friendly waitresses while we were busy snapping pictures of the beautiful place (and the food too, of course). It was a really awesome Thai meal. It would be probably be half of what you're expected to spend for an equivalent meal in Malaysia.

Mama’s Kitchen @ Krabi, Thailand

My Rating for Mama’s Kitchen: (3/6)

Roads on Phi Phi Island are not named but if they were, the one Mama’s is on would be called ‘Main Street’ as it is the busiest in the area.

Basically, come off the pier and turn right. Keep on walking for about 100 meters till you see Mama’s on the left-hand side.

Wood throughout with a high thatched roof and bamboo walls, it’s very cool and very tropical. Banana trees leaves poke over the hallway walls.

A lot of the restaurant’s artwork on the walls and in the hallway is that of Bobol, an expatriate French artist living in Phuket.

There is a modest bar with a mirror behind a couple of rows of optics and a darts board in the corner. Low-slung lighting makes a statement in the nighttime and during the day Mama’s is a good people-watching spot.

Thai Style Duck Noodle @ Krabi, Thailand

My Rating for Thai Style Duck Noodle: (3/6)

We had Duck noodle when we arrived in Krabi, our tour guide told us its famous and delicious dishes. All the tourists will be brought to this rural place where you won’t really able to find it by yourself without anyone to guide you there.

A simple hut

Thai style duck noodle soup – kind of like bak kut teh soup

Pork satay

Hajime @ Ampang, KL

My Rating for Hajime: (5/6)

How many times have I eaten at Hajime ... and how many times have I been completely impressed?? ..countless times!!

Hajime is situated in Jalan Damai off Jalan Ampang. Housed in a cosy little bungalow with ample parking space, it has a quiet sort of atmosphere.

The exterior and interior of this refurbished bungalow were extremely pleasing due to the use of various types of woods and stones to create different textures on the surfaces of the building. I brushed past a rope curtain at the main entrance as I entered a very short passageway which led to the main dining area. The main area had two separate sections. The non-smoking section consisted of sunken seats with muted lighting, while the smoking section was more brighty lit with conventional tables and chairs. The interior is abit warm though because of the lighting (spotlights and low-hanging lamps).

The Hajime Bento, RM86.

Akami (Tuna) maki and Shake(Salmon) maki. This roll is very delicious.



Looking at the gorgeous pieces of freshly cut sashimi, I am glad I acknowledged my inner desires. With every bite of the raw fish, I felt like I was born again.

You won’t find ramen and udons here nor can you find chicken teppanyaki and katsudons. If you like fresh sushi and sashimi, this is the right place to come to. This restaurant also serves the famous fugu (poisonous puffer fish which requires a specialised trained chef to prepare. It only comes in season from July to August.

Fong Lye Taiwanese Restaurant @ The Gardens, KL

My Rating for Fong Lye: (4/6)

Fong Lye Taiwan Restaurant (蓬莱茶房台湾料理) in the Gardens is often packed with patrons. Getting a table might be a pain, there is always a long queue at the counter.

Fong Lye interior is cheery and refreshing with bright lighting

Sweet potato balls (RM 4.80). It was chewy and airy.

Fish set: Rice is topped with minced meat

Its a steamed fish, cooked with vegetables. The gravy goes very well with the steamed rice.

Strawberry milk

Beware of long queues, the restaurant is small, and very popular, do try to make a reservation.
