Restoran Cina Muslim Mohd Chan Abdullah

Calling all fans of Chinese foods that would want to have Halal and authentic Chinese Cuisine!

I am, myself, a fan of Chinese food, and the fact that I am a Muslim, it is quite hard for me to get authentic Chinese food that is Halal. However, Restoran Cina Muslim Mohd Chan Abdullah solves it all.

This shop is located in Dataran Glomac, Kelana Jaya. I have always had this feeling of serenity whenever I come here, all those memories I had back then.

So.. me and my friends recently dined in there for lunch on Friday. Since the lunch time on Friday is quite long due to Friday Prayer, so we can go out for food-hunting!

From UNITAR International University, the restaurant is located at a walking distance make it convenient for us to go there. 

My personal favourite will always be their Hokkien Yee Mee, which is yee mee served with dark soy sauce and topped with vegetable and fried wonton, garnished with chopped spring onions and crispy fried onions, and lastly with your preferred chicken: bbq/roasted. I usually will accompany this dish with Chicken Dim Sum -- which is 3 pieces per set. The Dim Sum is tasty and I really love the texture.

Hokkien Yee Mee with BBQ Chicken, RM5.50 and Chicken Dim Sum, RM3.90

For those who prefer to eat rice during lunch, you can also try their signature dish, Nasi Ayam Mohd Chan. However, the portion is quite small and there is nothing special about it though -- told by a friend who ordered this.

Nasi Ayam Mohd Chan, RM5.50

So for those who are interested, the address:

Restoran Mohd Chan Abdullah
B-G-06, Jalan SS6/20,

Fariz Cafe

Hello readers!

Recently Fariz Maju Restaurant expanded their business and open up a new outlet in UNITAR International University, Tierra Crest, Kelana Jaya.

I would like to share some information on my university to you guys,
UNITAR was located at Leisure Commerce Square, Bandar Sunway, Petaling Jaya. But recently, the university moved to Tierra Crest, Kelana Jaya -- right beside the Balai Polis Kelana Jaya. 

Alright.. So, the famous Fariz Maju Restaurant open up a new outlet named Fariz Cafe at Ground Flour, Tierra Crest. The opening of Fariz Cafe can be said as a very successful business plan for Fariz Maju since the people working and studying at Tierra Crest had been waiting for a real restaurant serving Asian cuisine with affordable and reasonable price.

During breakfast and lunch time, Fariz Cafe usually will be full-house due to the overwhelming response from the customers.

Since the opening, I, myself have been dining in for lunch with my friends over there. I usually had their Cheese Naan with Tandoori Chicken or Nasi Campur. The price range for a normal lunch would never exceed RM10 unless you have a really big appetite. 

Nasi Campur: Rice, Fried Herbs Chicken, & Mixed Curries, without Vegetables
RM5.50

Cantonese Kuey Teow, RM7.90

Fariz Cafe has a lot of workers -- more than 10 people I think. So their serve fast and you'll get your food not more than 20 minutes even during peak hours. 

The foods are tasty and serve in generous portion. It is clearly shown in the pictures above. So, for anyone with tight budget and looking for a hearty meal, you can go to Fariz Cafe to have your breakfast/lunch/brunch or even early dinner!

Their normal Naan set is only RM2.00. That's really really cheap right?

Okay, so to those who would like to try dining in at Fariz Cafe, here's the address:
