JJCM @ Kopitiam Ali, Muthu & Ah Hock (AMAH)

KOPITIAM ALI, MUTHU & AH HOCK

Address:

Lot B-G-01, Ground Floor,

Block B, Oasis Ara Damansara,

Jalan PJU 1A/7, Petaling Jaya.

Kopitiam, literally means, coffee shop in Hokkien. This place brings nostalgic memory of the old time when the old songs are played especially P.Ramlee's songs. The decorations are classic too!

We love to lepak here because the bench is wide and big enough for my husband to be comfortable while eating and chatting. This is our favourite spot everytime we came here. My husband doesn't like to seat on the stool because he'll easily gets back pain. Hihii..

Prices are in the budget range, less than RM10 per person for a simple breakfast of plain nasi lemak, with hot tea or coffee. No issues with the price for me.

The nasi lemak rice is light and fluffy, not over cooked. You may choose to add chili cuttlefish (sambal sotong). The sambal itself tastes well on its own. You can smell the sambal from far.

The food is just awesome. I had the Nasi Lemak Ayam. The price is very reasonable for a good portion of food. I really enjoyed eating the Nasi Lemak Ayam which is served with a tasty and juicy whole leg of fried spiced chicken. 

The first time I was here, I went for nasi lemak and ayam rendang. The rendang was really delicious. Definitely the food quality here is good and the taste is marvelous. 

It is a lovely place to go for a weekend brekkie with family or anyday, meeting with friends over fragrant nasi lemak. This is my third time here. We just got back from Kelantan and thanks to Bob and Pika for picking us up from the airport and bring us here, again!

I strongly recommend this Kopitiam to all Nasi Lemak Lovers out there!

Picnic at Pantai Sri Tujuh

PANTAI SRI TUJUH

Address:

Jalan Pantai Tujuh,

16200 Tumpat,

Kelantan.

My favorite activities : picnicking, sky gazing and cloud gazing. 

Memorable place for me and husband. The first time we've been here, it was during my sister's wedding and it was the first time ever he followed me to Kelantan to meet my parents. This was the place where he said that he made up his mind about me. Hihii.. I love you hubby!

Always love this place. My mom and arwah Abah always brought us here for picnics when we were kids. On my wedding day, we had our outdoor photo shoots here. When my friends came, I brought them here. I always came back to this place. 

It is also a good place for my kesayangan to do some exercises. Hihii..

Love love love jagung bakar! Could have this all day. Keropok lekor, fishballs, hotdogs too! 

Something new to try, Aiskrim Tembikai! Watermelon Ice Cream cakap omputih.  RM5.00 for 5 scoops of vanilla ice cream, watermelon chunks, nata de coco, corn, nuts and pulut. Marvelous taste! I like it a lot. Yummeh... There were also aiskrim kelapa pandan, aiskrim nenas and aiskrim mangga. I would try all of them if weren't for all the keropok lekor and jagung I've eaten earlier. Maybe next time! 

We didn't get to go for holidays a lot. Not even to the nice places overseas like everybody does. But we are making the best of what we had in front of us. We find happiness in each other.

My kind of happiness : the beach, the ocean and the love of my life!

Nak mandi, takut sebab ombak besar! Jadi kami main kat tepi-tepi macam dua ekor dugong terdampar. Sekali ombak tolak, sekali kami tergolek. Hahaa..

JJCM @ Restoran Kapal Terbang

RESTORAN KAPAL TERBANG

Address:

Exit Jalan Sultan Yahya Petra,

Lundang, Kota Bharu,

Kelantan.

Tel No : 013-3430565

Just heard about the restaurant a few days after Raya Haji. New attraction in town. Mom said that my aunt went there once and they ended up paying RM100++ for their meal for two. Wow!!

Tidak salah sekiranya mencuba benda baru, mencuba makanan di restoran baru. We were 50/50 on the decision whether to have our dinner at the restaurant or find some other place. Our last minute decision, 'lets go try it out!'.

The restaurant is located along the main road. The plane on top of the building was easily spotted. Jockey service was provided and we were greeted and welcomed by the crews. I said to myself 'amboi!'. Hahaa.. My first thought, 'why so many waiters and waitresses standing around?'

The place is quite elegant with all the lights, chandelier, and white seats. RM5,000,000.00 to setup the restaurant and the plane on the roof itself costed RM100,000.00. Read it here. From what I heard this place was always 'full house' before the incident, restoran disita oleh MPKB. The incident was in July, maybe not many people knew about the re-opening. 

About the menu, the physical condition of the menu, blurghh.. Plain white A4? Where's the elegance in that? Hihii.. As expected, the food are pricey. Double the price out there. Fiuhh! Nak cuba punya pasal, order sajalah. I don't know if adding the word 'RKT' to the list of the food would give a difference in taste!

We didn't go for the special menu as suggested because they were out of our budget. Well, tak berbaloi nak berbelanja beratus-ratus hanya untuk makan. Enough for us to order something we are familiar with and judge the taste. Hihii..

The tomyam (RM10.00) tasted tomyam, nothing out of the ordinary, the telur bungkus (RM9.00) tasted better at other Thai restaurants, the ayam padprik (RM10.00) was not ayam but tulang, and sotong celup tepung (RM10.00)? 'Worst' said my husband. The tepung was tasteless. Sotong celup tepung at Bamboo Garden which was 5 minutes away from the place was far more tasty and cheap!

If the basic menus were just average in taste, what more to expect?

Cukup sekali ini sahaja! Bak kata my aunty and uncle "Kami dah terkena!"

Well, KAMI JUGA DAH TERKENA!

JJCM Raja Karipap

RAJA KARIPAP

Address:

Medan Ikan Bakar (M.I.B),

Kedai Buloh, Kota Bharu,

Kelantan.

(Near Warung Pak Mat Pulau Pisang)

The curry puffs are prepared at the stall. So the customers can taste the curry puff while it is still hot. So good!

RM1.00 is quite cheap because the curry puffs are big in size. Ala-ala Karipap IKEA. The similarity between both, ada telur rebus di dalam. Have not eaten IKEA's curry puffs quite a long time. Some said that the size is getting smaller and instead of using chicken egg, they use telur puyuh.

The Karipap Raja's fillings are nice but I preferred IKEA's more. The pastry is different too. I like IKEA's because they are more crunchy! Overall, Raja Karipap is not bad at all.

Boleh lah lepaskan rindu pada Karipap IKEA sementara berada di kampung halaman.

That day, we managed to buy 10 curry puffs although we already ate our breakfast.

After Teh Tarik Madu and Sup Ikan at Warunh Pak Mat, don't forget to buy Raja Karipap!

People should be this creative to succeed. Salute to Sarip Dol although his name is not Sarip Dol! Hahaaa.. I envy you because you can come out with something this different and unique! Congratulations!

Sedap disedut ketika masih sejuk. Sekali sedut, nak sedut lagi. So soft and smooth down the throat. Yummeh.. Just look at those lovely colors. 

This was moms first Cikedut! Cikedut is now trending, viral! Sarip Dol is conquering Malaysia. I'm sure you can get your Cikedut near you by now!

Happy slurping!!

JJCM @ Warung Pak Mat Pulau Pisang

WARUNG PAK MAT TEH TARIK MADU

macam-macam panggilan

Address:

Warung Pak Mat Pulau Pisang,

Medan Ikan Bakar (M.I.B),

Kedai Buloh, Kota Bharu,

Kelantan.

Open from 10am - 4pm

(Closed on Tuesdays)

Nak cari lokasi Warung Pak Mat Pulau Pisang ni senang je. If dari Kota Bharu, ikut sahaja papan tanda menuju ke Pantai Cahaya Bulan (PCB). Kemudian akan nampak papan tanda ke Kuala Besar, masuk di simpang ke Kuala Besar dan akan nampak papan iklan besar Medan Ikan Bakar. Warung Pak Mat Pulau Pisang terletak di Medan Ikan Bakar tersebut. Find this billboard and you'll be at the right place! Warung Pak Mat is located at end lot of the food court.

Public holidays, school holidays, raya holidays, whatever holidays, this place will be swarm with people. Today is Malaysia Day, Selamat Hari Malaysia!

Today's breakfast, teh ais madu, sup daging and telur dadar. Terbaik! Sup masam-masam pedas. Teh ais lemak-lemak manis. Yummss.. Our breakfast is RM18.00 in total. Teh tarik madu disediakan dalam gelas yang tinggi. Jadi berbaloilah harganya. Jangan risau, memang puas minum segelas.

Nah.. semua pun nak merasa keenakan teh tarik madu yang glamor ni. Boleh pilih nak panas atau sejuk. Harganya RM4 segelas. Mungkin ada yang mengeluh teh ais je pun tapi keunikan rupa dan keenakan rasa teh tarik madu, harga tersebut sangat berbaloi..

Pak Mat should be proud of his restaurant instead of some issues he encountered because a lot of people still coming in. There's nothing bad about bad publicity. Mahal tak mahal, kalau sedap apa salahnya!

This is my teh ais madu. 

SUPERB!! AWESOME!! MARVELOUS!!

Ada yang memberi gelaran 'root beer malaysia' kerana buihnya. Buih tu boleh minum? Of course!! Saya minum sampai licin. Table sebelah pula biarkan saja buih tu. Cubalah rasa buih tu. Menarik! RM4.00 per glass. It's worth the money. Bukannya boleh minum hari-hari, kencing manis. Sekali sekala apa salahnya! This is my third time here!

Satisfied customers! Thank you Pok Mat!

Alhamdulillah..

Review dari kami, SEDAP!!

Warung Pak Mat juga terkenal dengan sup kepala ikan yang harganya ditentukan mengikut saiz kepala ikan. Menurut beberapa review yang saya baca, harganya agak mahal. Saya sekeluarga tak makan kepala ikan. Hihii.. Sup isi ikan pun ada dengan harga RM30 semangkuk. Boleh cuba sebab ramai yang kata sedap!

Of course I'll be coming back here anytime soon!

JJCM @ Kocok d'Nyior Cafe

KOCOK D'NYIOR CAFE

 Address:

Lot 304, Jalan Sri Cemerlang,

Kota Bharu,

Kelantan.

(berhampiran Kopitiam Kita)

Based only on the price, for me they were a bit pricey. The only reasonable price was the tea. Other drinks I can get them at cheaper price elsewhere. Mashaallah..

This Pulut Pauh Aiskrem costed RM8.00. The only part yang sedap adalah mangga. The combination added nothing special. 

Mango + plain glutinous rice + plain coconut milk + vanilla flavored ice cream. Tiada rasa lemak manis dari pulut atau santan. Colorful sprinkles on top tu sangat tidak gemar. Mengganggu rasa! 

My beef soup taste so weird. Far from delicious. Horrible!! Couldn't even finish my lunch. I am being sincere so that the cafe can improve.

The only element that I like about this cafe was the murals. The paintings on the walls quite awesome. Kudos to the painters!

The main actor; the Coconut Shake was an epic fail. If you are expecting the taste of Klebang's Coconut Shake, I am sorry to disappoint you, it's not! Arghh.. They have seven flavors of ice cream, vanilla, strawberry, yam and the rest I couldn't remember. The 'shake' without the ice cream tasted weird. Masam. Adding the strawberry ice cream was even weirder taste. Should stick to vanilla only!

Overall, 'maha supo bedil' and the taste? Balik rumah masuk 'jambe'! Sakit perut.
