Jalan Ipoh’s sinister brew
Malaysia is a complex country, as far as the subject is meat. Here the adage 1 man’s meat is another man’s poison is one of the main reasons why the relationship amongst its people continues to dangle on a passionate love & intense hate level. Anyway thats what many dubious religious bigots/tainted polticians would have you believe.
Our reconnection with the dark force brought us yet again to our appointment with the incorrigible herbal aphrodisiac, somewhere along the front end of Ipoh Road, Kuala Lumpur.
Served bold & blackish, its guaranteed to have you declare, “we’ll be back…again”, even as you try to wipe away that lingering herbal odour. Ogle & enjoy!

Eating on the cheap, Bukit Bintang Plaza KL
Many a cash strapped outstation college student slogged his way to a 3 year degree in expensive harsh Kuala Lumpur City powered by many late nights, missed concerts, & good olde “chap fun”. Afterall with a RM500 a month allowance, & unlike the Gomen Scholar,wagyu beef or sushi in one of those swanky joints around happening Bukit Bintang are beyond his wildest dreams.
But for survivers who know, or knowing those afficinados who know, can still enjoy Chinese imperial cuisine at pauper prices.
Check out this remarkable roof top rice haven in Bukit Bintang Plaza, KL if you are in town & admire the more than 100 emperor dishes on display to feast your eyes, or your tummy for only RM5 for a standard mixed rice package.
With this spread, we believe all essential brain vitamins & to die for tastes are suitably covered
