A last minute stay~ Park Avenue Hotel, Sungai Petani

An old established hotel in SP that we choose to stay for a night very last minute due to the new hotel in town that we booked has suicide case happen. The room interior still looks the same as 15 years ago (if I don't remember wrongly) in my first visit. Despite looks old fashion everything is maintaining well and clean. The window view definitely compensate everything~ beautiful Gunnng Jerai view right in front from our room window. It reminds me of a song by club 8 - this is the morning.

Samgyetang~ Daorae, Desa Sri Hartamas

Today is chobok, the begin of summer in Korea. Traditionally Koreans will have samgyetang or baeksuk (boiled chicken soup) on sambok days. After work, we went for Samgyetang at a Korean restaurant nearby home. There are a few authentic Korean restaurant in Mon't Kiara that serve nice samgyetang all year long. Daorae is one of it. Having the Samgyetang, reminds me of the delicious baeksuk I had before today. Baeksuk or dak-baeksuk is a simpler version of Samgyetang where ingredients are chicken, garlic, glutinous rice and herbs while Samgyetang is made with ginseng, herbs, chestnuts and jujube. The glutinous rice that absorb all the flavours from the chicken broth is my most favourite part of baek-suk.

Miyatake Sanuki Udon~ Isetan Eat Paradise, One Utama Shopping Centre

It's been a while since my last dine in at Isetan Food Paradise. This Miyatake Sanuki Udon which open last year is the only eatery in the Food Paradise I haven't try among all. Now that banned of dine-in has removed, still feel unreal and insecure when think of the virus could be anywhere everywhere when dine-in. Anyway, manage to enjoy a bowl of beef udon with hot soy broth, spicy pork tsuke udon served with hot dipping soy broth and tempuras. We order 6 types of tempura - eggplant, mix veggie, enoki mushroom, sweet corns, sweet potato and pumpkin. The corn tempura is my favourite! So additive and decided to order one more corn tempura half way eating.
