Penang Cravings Atria Damansara Jaya
Published by Kelvin Wong April 8th, 2008 in Food Reviews, Petaling Jaya.
After a write up on the nearby Mama restaurant, there is also one more gem untold in the Damansara Jaya area. This is the second gem one can find as mentioned before. We were shopping around this area and saw this new outlet located at the ground floor of Atria Shopping Centre. Being a peranakan lover and spicy foodie, how can I not resist to try out this place?

Essentially peranakan. The decorations of this place is modern and provides a very excellent atmosphere to chill out and hang out with old friends, what more Atria being a quiet spot, its definitely a great place for those cozy gatherings. The first dish we ordered is the must-have otak otak. The taste of it is excellent and really goes very well with the rice. The spicy degree is not as high as mama restaurant, though.

This place also serves a must have penang delicacy, Lobak. As this establishment is halal, therefore it is made from chicken. This does not affect its essential taste for a lobak, its crispiness and fragrant taste when being chewed in the mouth are still there.

Also not to forget we also had a spicy dish, which was the Sambal prawns with vegetables. This is definitely recommended to all as the prawns are not only fresh but the chilli paste has a special flavour in it.

For non spicy alternative, we ordered a stir fried beef with black pepper dish, which actually is east meet west fusion; black pepper sauce and Asian style stir fried beef. Do not give this a miss as well.

The Egg Tofu in thick egg sauce is also great accompaniment with the rice. Note that this meals must go with at least a bowl of rice, otherwise there won’t be satisfaction. The verdict: Recommended, most points goes to its ambience and furniture, a must go for treating friends and family gatherings. The next writeup will also focus on Damansara Jaya area, on another unique gem.

I went to the one called “Nyonya” something on the top floor of Atria. Much simpler place, but got ripped off big time on their prawn sambal. Some small shrimp and no veggies like yours, except for onions. It costs RM7 for a tiny plate that you can finish off in 3-4 bites (if can take the spiciness lah, otherwise will take 5-6 smaller bites).
