Sungai Buloh Famous Hot Plate Pancake

Few weekends ago, we were hungry and didn't know where to eat. Then we thought of the place in Sg. Buloh that is always packed. Went there and the shop already closed and moved. Tried to find the location of the new shop, but we went to the wrong side. 

BUT, we discovered something more fun. Hehe.. My mum have been telling me about this Hakka Pancake in Sg. Buloh and whether I have tasted it before or know where it was lah. 

I finally found this place wtf. Do you know how many sleepless nights i have thinking where to find you? Ok overly drama. Malas aku nak edit2 foto ni semua, straight from the cam jer.

Told my uncle about this place i saw and he said to come back and tapao after lunch. The online reviews says there's usually long queue and when they finish selling whatever they prepared for the day then its done. Luckily the day we went there was no queue at all and  we bought like 30 pieces wtf. 10 each. 

There are 3 flavours for this thing: Red bean, Peanut and Coconut.
So far I only get to try the Red Bean cause those hungry people at home wallop all before I could even touch it. And also cause I prefer to eat just the red bean. From what I heard, the peanut is a bit rough, not the smooth kind and the coconut is not bad too. 

Look for this stall, it's right outside a shop selling Chinese prayer items. The main road is narrow and if you look hard enough you wouldn't miss this place. Unless if its not open. 


Certainly wouldn't miss this stall, they even (bake?) this pancake outside the shop. Everything is quite manual. 

The pancake is a bit flour-y. Its coated with flour and a small spot of oil or water. Taste something live very fresh, flat bread with fillings inside. ohya, smells yeast-y if there is this kind of word. 

Don't know whether is it because of my current diet (no sweet stuff if possible), I find the red bean quite sweet. 



This is how it look like when they are grilling/toasting/baking it. Everything is done by hand and it's very hot. I stood near there to take picture also can feel the heat already. 



The pancake (I like to call it bread rather than pancake) is selling at RM 0.90 per piece. Quite pricey I guess, but still not overly pricey considering how manual its made. At least they didn't get lazy and but an oven to toast it or something. 

I didn't expect my aunty and uncle to like it so much that we went there again (and i suspect there'll be many more agains). So yeah, worth a try. 

Address: 345, Jalan Besar, Sungai Buloh New Village. 

boo.

I just want to write something. Haven't been updating any blogs or writing any other thing than assignments and term papers for the past few months. Arrrgh. My hand so itchy to write something. The thing about technology is, I dont use my digital cam to take pictures anymore, and my laptop is quite slow and lag-gy that i dont use it anymore. So i have no pictures to update. lol. kthxbai.

awesome dinner

Last night, I had an awesome dinner, with many many kinds of seafood.

We ordered LOBSTER!!, siham, MANTIS PRAWN!!!, fish, and also the bamboo clam. Hehe, pardon the excitement, this is my first time having lobster. And it's cooked with none other than cheese!

omgosh it's soooo good, foodgasm. haha...

Siham or cockles was cooked in a simple way. It was just steamed or boiled then we crack open the shells on our own. First time eating cockles like that though.. I usually see them only in char koay teow, and dont eat them. It's bloody wtf, but quite sweet. Well, easier to swallow than raw oyster. Haha... I am noob. Surprisingly, I accepted the taste quite well. Despite the blood or red juice (live with it), it's rather... sweet.

Fish was steamed (this i know for sure!) haha. Taste quite nice, but I have no idea what kind of fish is that though...

Mantis prawn or 'lai liu ha' or 'har gu' or 'hae gor' was giant! Biggest mantis prawn I had ever eaten! Cooked with salted egg which is my other love, so the dish is just... heavenly. Difficult to explain but yeah... heavenly.

Ohhh, Bamboo clam was giant too. I never really had bamboo clams, and the ones I had before was like a mini baby clam. This, was giant bamboo clam compared to what I had before. Each of us was served in individual plates, one clam per person. It was topped with lots of garlic and had a mouthful of 'tung fun' together with the clam.

What else did we have? hmmm... Haha, have to keep referring to the picture to remember what we ordered.

Oh, vegetable. Kailan. nahhh, I shall pass. haha...

Last but not least, LOBSTER!!! The star of the day. Lobster was cooked with cheesy, omg Cheesy Lobster from heaven!! ahhhh.... How do you explain love? Difficult, and this is the same. Haha. Just awesome!! So awesome I got no words to desbribe.

And because I'm lazy, here is a combined picture of all the food we had. Thanks for the dinner! :) What did I do in my past life to deserve all this?! I'm a lucky spoilt girl...


And then, after dinner, it was still early, so we ALL headed to reflexology! OMG is this life or what? Am I dreaming? If yes, I dont want to wake up. :)

This is proper reflexology, unlike the one I went the night before. Utterly crap. Waste of money.
Anyway, the best weekend ever. Wake up, shopping and actually bought something, awesome dinner, and end with a relaxing foot reflexology. Oh, after that, went to get some dessert also!

So. Much. Love. xD


Sorry, you have to see my fat legs. LOL. Sorry to hurt your eyes like that, after all the awesome food pictures haha.
