Peter's Pork Noodles, Money Corner, Brickfields

Hands up pork noodles lover! This was deemed as one of the most popular pork noodles around Brickfields, we became jaywalkers just to cross the main road to tryout this pork noodles! This place was hard to find, well if you're coming from KL Sentral direction, it was rather hard to be notice since its located across a small alley. If not, it is located opposite the YMCA building.

The coffeeshop was hot and stuffy, but this don't deter so many office employee to sit in the heat and enjoy their meal. There are a variety of hawkers in the coffee shop, the popular one would be the banana leaf rice stall (malay), the chinese mixed rice, the western hawker and the pork noodles stall. 

You can order either the dry or the soup version of the pork noodles. The more popular one was definitely the soup pork noodles. There was a variety of kueyteow or beehoon and you could request for extra egg at RM 0.50 if I'm not mistaken. 

The Dry Pork Noodles with Soup

So I had the dry noodles for RM 5.50 (small bowl), the large bowl was RM 6.50. The noodles were tossed in a rich amount of soy sauce and topped off with a generoud amount of pork lard, though I never take pork lard. But the best way to have the dry noodles is to douse it with some soup, if not you will find it difficult to enjoy your noodles since it was so dry!

The soup was overloaded with minced pork and pork chunks. It was juicy and succulent. Each bite was a burst of flavors, well burst of minced pork that was well marinated. I wouldn't say it was the best, but it certainly was good.

Banana Leaf Rice

Looks pretty good too. My senior chose to have something different instead.

Earth calling to all pork noodles lover, this is the one place that you should give it a shot.

Tabletalk, TTDI

Tabletalk is a huge disappointment. I was expecting much from this wonderfully designed restaurant and I was so badly disappointed with the level of food I had. But the ultimate deal breaker was the coffee. Tabletalk is located as the same row as Devi's in TTDI, however, it is the first shop in the end of the lane.

It has interior setting of a wonderful hotel restaurant - wooden floor, foldable glass door, patio and plants everywhere. If it wasn't for the bustling traffic opposite, it would feel really wonderful to just seat down for a cup of coffee and enjoy the morning peacfulness. 

We were attended to by a wonderful waiter from Bangladesh. He has been working in the hospitality line for the past few years and it ain't small hotels, he was working for hotels like Shangrila! One of his customer recommended him to be promoted in this restaurant, so here he is.

I just had to take a picture of the interior because it was just so classicly designed!

Cappuccino

This was horrible. It was dilute to begin with. The ratio of coffee to milk was all off. I didn't bother finishing my drink anyways.

Long Black

This was worst. Similarly, it was so dilute that it tasted pretty much like water. We made the waiter checked what was wrong with their machine, they were using the machine, so such problem shouldn't be present. The waiter found out that the worker handling the machine did not caliberate the machine apprioprately and it had apparently caused the beans to turn too thin, hence the water sipped through easily which caused the dilution. 

On a side note, their baristas are NOT qualified barista, the waiter told us himself. So, do not expect 5 star coffee because clearly I didn't get my dose of perfection. And yes they still charged us for the coffee even though we didn't even touch much of it.

Ultimate Breakkie

At least their breakfast set was decent. It was served with potato roastie, sausages, turkey ham, baked beans, scrambled eggs, toasted wheat bread and sauteed vegetables. I felt the baked beans were weird in taste, it wasn't your usual red baked beans but rather it was slightly purplish and the beans were larger than usual. The sauteed vegetables were completely unnecessary and it wasn't even delicious to begin with.

The whole meal caused us about RM 30 and I wasn't even satisfied with any of the food. I wouldn't go back any time sooner. First impression counts and the first impression they left on me was horrible. Perhaps their breakfast set was horrible, I've read blogs praising their main courses, perhaps that is something to look out for when I gain back my confidence for this new restaurant.
