Big Plate Restaurent at Subang Permai... Wow!

When I heard about Big Plate Restaurant, I thought it is just like Papa Chop & Mama Grill, cheap western food that serve cheap. Furthermore, my friend told me that the price is quite reasonable. This strengthen my perception that it is cheap and serve tonnes of food to value your stomach.

We face no difficult to reach Subang Permai. However, it took us a while to find the restaurant as the sign was not bright and big enough.

Simple interial decoration with very deem lights double confirmed my previous thought. But, I nearly dropped my eye when I saw the menu. The price was about 50% higher than PapaMama. I thought somebody must have recommended wrongly and I was planning to write a negative review.

Sometimes man makes decision too fast. Or maybe when we are expecting the worst while receiving good things, it end up we are much appreciated the results.

Food served was fantastic. Simple decoration, low cost environment and all other cost cutting contributed directly to the main focus, the food. Food served were well decorated, well presentation, and taste even better than some very high end restaurants. The main things is, those plates were huge, and they are full!

Good food in very large portion, Big Plate, ain't kidding.


Restaurant looks simple and hiding in remote place. Crowd come from words of mouth.


Mushroom soup served in XXL size bun. Enough for 2 persons.

Tomato soup was better than mushroom soup. Equally large.

My sis ordered a sandwich plate, thought to have a light meal. But look at those tuna and the bread and all those chips, I can't believe it cost us only RM7.

Grill ikan tenggiri, local fish cooked with western style. Well done for the cook to married both local and west. You got to eat it to know it.


Pasta also very yummy. The greens was different from the Ayam Shah Alam. This serve with kiwi and dragon fruits.



Grilled chicken (Ayam Shah Alam) came with half chicken plus well decorated salad. All nicely cook and I could not resists to finish it all.

Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh... in Kampung Subang

I previously posted few Bak Kut Teh shops such as Grandpa Bak Kut Teh or Vege Bak Kut Teh.
As a typical Malaysian chinaman, you can guess that I love Bak Kut Teh just like those "kuli" in the old days at Port Klang. Every time when I heard there is good one, sure I will find my way there.

Good food or bad food is very subjective to the patrons. It even more particular for Bak Kut Teh as we are all various from our belove taste of soup. Some of us like it clear and light (just like me). But some of us like it thick and full of flavours. Thus, we always have contradict opinion regarding to the best Bak Kut Teh in town. This variant of taste also causing Bak Kut Teh stalls mushrooming with each has its unique characteristic.


Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh, which is located at Subang Permai, at the junction of Monterez Golf Club, near Kampung Subang serves some of the best food in town.




I love the soup which is not too thick that I can drink by itself. Those meat was just nicely cooked that not too tough, neither too soft. Just tender enough for me to bite.




Besides Bak Kut Teh, I guess their chicken feet is also one of the best I ever had. Never get fool by the appearance. Before I put those delicacy in my mouth, I thought I am going to have a very hard, tough meat, which might cause goose bump on me. I did had goose bump, but it was because the food was too delicious.



Normal vegetable? Maybe. But I think I need to inform you that those leaves never fry in the wok. There were merely soak in hot water and shower with oyster sauce. I do not know how will you feel. But for me, after those heavy meaty food, I felt less guilty by eating those green leaves.

Puchong Yong Tau Fu... Simply the Best

Is Ampang YongTauFu the most famous in Malaysia? I believe so. And I believe most of the people thought so as well. However, I also heard Serdang YongTauFu pretty nice, and Puchong has the finest YongTauFu.

The shop I am going to introduce here locate in Kampung Bahru Puchong and it is call Puchong Yong Tau Fu. It serve the best fish cake in town, at least from my point of view.

I came from the East Cost of Malaysia. The place where we eat keropok lekuk more than potato chips. Our taste for fish food is difference. I love fish cake or fish crackers with strong fish taste. I thought fish cake without the taste of fish means nothing. So, a good fish ball cannot be judged by its texture and appearance only. If you only want a springy ball, why choose fish ball? Squid ball also can right?

The fish cake serve in this Puchong Yong Tau Fu taste fishy, feel fishy and I could feel the real fish texture. I have no problem to wait for almost an hour for my serving. It worth every minutes of waiting.


The stall locate opposite a Chinese primary school, at Puchong Chinese village. Area near Tractor Malaysia and DHL.

See the crowd waiting patiently and I have no complain to wait for my turn at all.



Vegetables served fresh. You pick the raw one in the basket and they will stuff it immediately before cook. Freshly prepared food, worth the wait?


Each table's TongTauFu were stuff at site and cook separately and immediately.




Deep fried egg plant and FuJuk.

This is my favourite. Fish ball soup. I still can not find a proper word to describe it.
