Of Coffee Shops and Chicken Chops!

The title was from a newspaper cutting we saw in the place we went on Saturday morning!We went to the heart of KL for breakfast at a famous restaurant, or rather, coffee shop.It's none other than Yut Kee. We had to wait in line even though we arrived at 8.30am!Being so famous and established, I would imagine a lot of old people. But it was filled with youngsters and working adults!So, while waiting, we just snapped a couple of harmless photos! Here are the girls!Me and Emily!You can roughly gauge the age of the restaurant. The fierce fella in the portrait is the owner. And the same owner is the uncle in the newspaper cutting! I'd say a rough 40 years? I don't know...Me and Shirlyn. Look at the extensive menu behind us! This kopitiam is famous for a lot of things~!One of such things is the Roti Babi. Unlike it's name, the dish is a really tasty treat!Nothing like coffee to kick start my day!Famous carcinogenic toast, with their self-made kaya and butter!And then there's the famous half-boiled eggs!After all this, we are still not full!We added Loh Mee. The soup is simply delicious!And then we had Pork Chop as well! If our stomachs were not so small, there were plenty more for us to try!A toast with coffee! All the best to all who will be leaving for UK in the coming days. See you guys there! To our friends in Seremban, good luck in Sem7! And to the Aussies, take care guys!

"Ah Neh! Teh 'O Ais Limau Satu!!!"

Adapted from here!

The mamak epidemic has engulfed Malaysia unsuspectingly! Thousands of Malaysians will flock in the mamak almost every night, more when there are football matches going on! Mamaks are equivalent to fast food restaurants, but at a much lower price!

And the most famous mamak in Sri Petaling is:
Ajimal Razim!!!
The only mamak in Sri Petaling which has a branch within a 500 meter radius! I guess it is to serve the overwhelming amount of people that comes not only from IMU, but the residents around as well! Evelyn and I, being Sri Petaling dwellers, decided to satisfy our mamak cravings!

So here are some pictures to remind you of the saliva-stimulating food of Ajimal Razim:
Thirst quenching - Teh 'O Ais Limau.The most famous and delicious - Nasi Lemak Ayam!The simple but yummy - Indomee!Evelyn the Glutton feels satisfied swallowing two dishes at once!One of my favourites - Murtabak Kambing!And the lesser of the Mocha Latte cousins, but works as well - Neslo Ais!
A little mamak trip to relive our IMU days of mamaking after library or DotA and to satisfy our tongue and stomachs! Don't think we'll get much/any mamak in UK... Boohoo...
