KK Food Reviews

This has always been one of my all time favourite eateries to go to on a weekend. I just LOVE fish head beehoon soup!

This stall is located on the food stall beside the Church of Mary Immaculate in Bukit Padang, and across the road from the Bukit Padang Hospital.

It’s been here for a long time now, I heard, and business is still going strong.

It’s no wonder too, as their fish head beehoon soup is really delicious! I love their freshly fried fish in the soup too! Can’t get enough of it! (price: regular RM5, Large RM7.50)

Rating from me: 5/5! Yes, it’s that good! And worth every penny!

As usual, WC would go for kon lo mee, so his fish soup is clear version. Plain, IMO, but if you don’t want any fats in your food, I guess this is good enough.. and according to him, it tasted delicious nonetheless! (price: RM5 but correct me if I’m wrong)

Do you guy still eat at this stall?

The soup has a lot of stuff inside: generous amount of fish maw, mushroom, tofu, egg, carrots, and lettuce. Yummy! 4/5!

We also ordered 1 kilo of crabs (RM30/kg) and had them cook it into 2 different styles..

We finished this dish in no time. ‘Nuff said. 5/5

This BIG meal for 2 (plus 4 glasses of Chinese Teh Ping) cost us RM90.40.

Will keep this restaurant in mind when I need to bring my family out for dinner the next time around!

Did you guys know that there is a Kedai Kopi Daily (2) in Jalan Gaya? Not only in Foh Sang guys! It’s also 24 hours, and is a WiFi Zone too! AND they serve no pork! AND their menu is extensive!

Before I go on with the bad service, let me show you guys what we ordered:

My chicken mee soup. (price: RM5)

Looks good, right? But trust me, this was bad. Oil in the soup was about an inch thick (I could see it in my bowl!), so I was only drinking oil instead of soup! Urgh! Also, despite of me asking only chicken, they also added some fish cakes inside? Okayyy…

I seriously wonder why they wanna put oil in the soup (they added it in the middle of the dish); it totally ruined it. Sans the oil though, the dish would’ve still be okay. Oh wait. The chicken tasted too much of the steel of the knife (that they used to cut it with is my guess). I just couldn’t even eat half of my food.

0/5 for this dish! Luckily it was only RM5..

This is what WC had: Chicken Paprik Fried Rice. (price: RM7.50)

Well, he asked for chicken, but once again, they also gave him seafood as well. Weird. Don’t the cook even read the orders? And, I thought Nasi Paprik is supposed to be cooked with Tomato Sauce? None for this dish, though..

But according to WC, he said this dish is delicious. Portion was a lot too! 3/5 from him. I loved the veggies.. hehe..

We also ordered this dish: Seafood Sweet & Sour dish. (price: RM7.50)

Now this dish is delicious! Worth to order the next time! Portion is just right for 2 pax too!

But okayyy… now to my bad service I had here. One of the girl first took WC’s order as I was still trying to decide what I can eat that won’t upset my tummy. So when my turn came, I was still browsing their menu, as like I’ve said before, their menu is quite extensive. After just like 5 seconds of waiting for me, the girl then started to tap her fingers on the table! A sign to tell me to hurry up! WTF! A person should never, ever do that when taking your orders, no matter how slow you are! And only for 5 seconds?? So I saw the most bland dish on the menu, which is the above mee soup, and just quickly ordered that. Sheesh.. Even WC was pissed about that.

So the point of this post: no matter if you have a restaurant or just a coffee shop, NEVER EVER TAP YOUR FINGERS ON THE TABLE TO HURRY UP THE CUSTOMERS WITH THEIR ORDERS! That is just a plain NO-NO! I mean.. wtf, right??

Sigh.. but despite the oily dish I had, I am still willing to come back there for the next time to try out their other menu. They have an extensive menu there (as I’ve mentioned before)! Just like in restaurants!

I just hope that we get a different waiter/waitress the next time around!

Whenever I crave for soto, this is the coffeeshop that I would always go to, ever since I was in high school: the Kedai Kopi Sin Fatt Hing.

Even though it’s a chinese coffeeshop, there is a Muslim soto stall inside the shop itself, that sells, rojak and soto (chicken or beef). It is halal because if you are eating from this stall, you will be given the stall’s own set of fork and spoon, as well as their soy sauce, etc.

You can see Muslim people do come and eat here as well. It’s like a mini food court right inside a coffeeshop itself!

Soto Daging (meat soto)

I personally always order the “Soto Daging” (meat soto) whenever I come here, as I prefer the meat taste as compared to the chicken in my soto.

But if you don’t feel like eating soto (or rojak) AND if you are non-Muslim, you can always opt for the coffeeshop’s own dishes, like one of their signature dish, the Tuaran Mee.

Yummy Tuaran Mee

Whenever I have a craving for Tuaran mee, I would always get it from this coffeeshop as well. That’s because these 2 dishes (as well as their wat tan ho) have grown on me ever since I was in All Saints high school, which is located right in front of this coffeeshop!

** I’m gonna tag this post as a halal AND serve no pork, as both are applicable **
