Wow, after getting featured on The Star, Ive rummaged through some of my old photos that I have taken sometime on December last year to be posted here. One of it that is worth a mention is the ever popular 6 to 10 Grill that was featured on many other food blogs. Some may question: This is a Malaysian Food blog, shouldn’t it be featuring more of Malaysian food? I would dare say that western food here, especially the ones that are served in coffee shops and other outlets are being transformed into a new genre, or segment of “Malaysian Western Cuisine”. Other examples would be the Hainanese Colonial Chicken Chop being served by Yut Kee near Jalan Dang Wangi. It seems that you can never find this elsewhere in other parts of the world; as Hainanese chefs serve this delicious chops, a fusion between east and west to serve their colonial masters, as well as adapting their chinese ways of stir frying techniques.

One stuff that you will notice about this place: packed to the brim. It was pretty difficult for us to locate a table as we waited at least 20 minutes to get one. One thing you must try there is their famed Nasi Lemak, with their delicious sambal sotong and rendang daging. Though the cheapest course on the menu, it still packs a big punch and a favourite haunt for post-sweaty futsal and badminton sessions.

The real thing we are looking for, which is the value-for-Ringgit western meal. Pretty no frills as you can see, the Pork Chops in Hawaiian Sauce is really a great meaty main course with its sweet and tangy (Hawaiian-I-kid-you-not) sauce. Less fries are served, but no worries, as they will not do any good to you after all.

The mushroom soup that came next is something you would need before you start on a real western meal. No harm getting all soupy before a real meal.

The pan-fried fish here is something near the cheapest we can get at the menu. Its indeed a bargain for fish lovers and less fries again, maybe concerned for your health again? (hehe). In the end, we certainly feel that this place is not overrated at all. it lives up to its fame for being value for money and delicious in another way. Today’s review just focus on the “value-for-money’ aspect, so the other higher-end stuff, like the ribs are not featured here. Maybe I will give it a try some other time and I will do a second write-up on the other stuff we did not try that day.
