ฟ้าปลาทาน มาร์เช่ ทองหล่อ Fá Plā Tahń Marché Thonglor @ Thonglor, Bangkok, Thailand.

Still recovering from a hangover, could use some soupy meal. Friend brought me over to this place near our hotel. What a gem it was, how did I miss this place all this while. Perfect brunch place for your hangover. 

I needed something to wake me up, Ordered a tomyam noodle soup with squid. Check out that egg yolk! Friend ordered a fish porridge. As for desserts we had the steam bread with pandan kaya(I think). Everything was divine. My tomyam broth had a fiery kick to it. Squid was fresh, love the eggs. Bread was springy fluffy and the kaya was addictive.

It was so good from my first experience that I had to come back one more time before I fly out, so the last pic was my sliced fish porridge. Good stuff. Love it!

Warung Laota @ Bali, Indonesia.

Nice, sometimes after a heavy night out, we normally go for porridge for supper. This round we checked out Warung Laota at the Nusa Dua branch(they have 3 outlets in Bali). As you can see from their signage, they boldly proclaim HK porridge and seafood steamboat specialist. 

We ordered a few variety of porridges with some salted egg on the side. 

Some greens and omelets to balance out the diet (lol). Oh my don't forget the century egg and some youtiao.

 

Porridge was super good, I like it done this way, starchy with a nice thickness. Congee lah. Side dishes were good. It was a super comfort meal after a heavy night out drinking, proper supper food. Not too heavy and easy to go to bed later.

Ốc Đào @ Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Back in HCM and first stop dinner was back in Oc Dao. This time I managed to chat with one of the staff, he helped us on how to pair/eat the seafood with da condiments. You have to tried it with the sauces.

Food was indeed superb as always. It was indeed a scrumptious dinner.

First day in hcm, of course we had to hit Bui Vien walking street for some beers. After this we went to Ốc Đào following the bartenders recommendation for dinner. The restaurant is big, with indoor and outdoor dining area.

This is definitely going in my regular eating places in hcm. Love the ambience plus the food was fresh and tasty.

Restoran Teochew Lao Er @ Pudu, KL, Malaysia.

First time coming here, went to check out the porridge. 

They have set menu as well, but we opted for ala carte.

I opted for the fish porridge with some dishes to share. Very good stuff. A good place if you're craving for Teo Chew porridge.

Restoran Onn Kee Claypot Seafood Porridge @ Imbi, KL, Malaysia

Came here a few times for lunch, dishes not bad. If you're in Imbi and fancy some sze char, can come check out this place.

Menu quite extensive, the steamed chicken was good.

We tried a couple of stuff on the menu, some are good some not bad. One thing for sure, you can't go wrong with the porridge. Oh by the way, the petai omelette(not in pic) is def a must order.

Pusat Penjaja Kampar @ Kampar, Perak, Malaysia.

So this wet market come hawker centre has different stalls operating for breakfast and dinner. We came here dinner time around 7ish pm(well late dinner as our early dinner was like 1.5 hours earlier at the claypot chicken rice place). Our main aim was to check out the chee cheong fun stall.

As the ccf wasn't open yet, I remembered watching Jason's market trails and it featured this stall selling congee and steamed chicken. Well not gonna give it a miss and ordered a single portion.

Ahem yeap this is definitely a crowd pleaser, simple stuff comfort food and taste absolutely delicious.

Friend couldn't resist seeing this ban chang kueh/apam balik stall and ordered some. Not bad, quite a good appetiser before our main course.

Now by this time the auntie and uncle arrived and was setting up the ccf stall. We thought we were early, we were number three in the queue and before you know it, there's easily 20 people queuing.

Seeing this was our last food intake before heading home, we went nuts ordering two bowl of curry ccf laden with awesome goodness. This is one mean mind boggling plate of ccf, you have to try it yourself.

Awesome place to end our makan day trip in Kampar, there's definitely more makan trails here to find next time.

Pusat Makanan Gold Wing @ Kampar, Perak, Malaysia.

We did a full day road trip to Kampar recently and our first stop was this place for lunch. It's basically a big kopitiam with loads of hawker stalls.

While waiting for our other friends to arrive, we ordered some fishball and pao. Not bad, quite decent especially the fishballs.

Our main agenda here was the porridge and steamed chicken.

Ok while waiting for the porridge we got sidetracked and went behind the kopitiam, where there was another row of stalls. Friend recommended this little suckers, kampar fried fishball?? But of course we ordered other stuff as well.

This is the stall where we got all the fresh fishball, kampar fried fishball, foo chuk and sar kok liew. And yes they can serve the food at your table in Gold Wing.

Honestly, excellent stuff, a must order to share especially the kampar fried fishballs. Wonderful little suckers.

Alright, porridge time. As usual we had the raw fish sashimi, nicely done. Porridge was simple but wholesome. The chicken oh my, superb. Been quite some time since I've tasted this good steamed chicken.

This is what I call a complete meal. Plain porridge with steamed chicken, with raw fish on the side. Simply heaven.

This if I'm not mistaken was fish innards, chewy springy I kinda like the texture. From the porridge stall.

Last but not least, had to try the beef noodle. So we ordered one portion without noodles. It's good, enough said.  Oh we also tried the asam laksa from the stall inside Gold Wing, worth ordering that too. This kopitiam have some good food to offer, do check it out.
