Ying Ker Lou 迎客楼 Hakka Cuisine @ The Garden

As an hakka people, sometime you will crave for hakka food and here is definitely can get all the hakka cuisine in one shop- Ying Ker Lou. Its is located at the 2nd Floor of The Garden. This restaurant can be quite busy during peak hours though the food is worth waiting for. Ying Ker Lou doesn't use MSG in prepare food and it is an non-halal restaurant. 

 P01- 客家算盤子 Hakka Yam Abacus RM22.00

The yam abacus are pan-fried with mushrooms, minced pork, jew's ear, spring onion and fried garlic.

the whole dish taste good but the yam abacus are disappointing as the yam abacus are lack of the yam flavor. Anywhere can get a better Yam abacus than here.

K05-  HAKKA PAN MEE RM 15.90

This is a worth trying dish. It look simple but every drop of soup is treasure. 

The shop taste clear neither tasteless or salty, but you can taste it uses anchovies and mushroom to prepare the soup.

The Pan Mee is the thinnest pan mee i ever had, the thinnest give a smooth texture to the pan mee but the taste still remain. 

L01- Hakka Minced Pork BanTiao RM15.90

BanTiao for me it is actually taste like pan mee but just in noodle form. 

The noodle are cook to just nice and the minced pork fits perfectly with the noodle.

Basically, Hakka people are actually quite a meat eater, and this is the key why we know better in prepare meat.

P34- XIAO LONG BAO WITH RICE WINE (4PCS) RM10.00

Ying Ker Lou xiao long bao are different from din tai fung or dragon-i as you can see it contain wine.

I shouldn't say the XLB contain rice wine, it should be they use rice wine as the soup base in xiao long bao. This is actually an interesting idea as normal xiao long bao we had are salty soup base but the rice wine give a sweet aroma to it. 

But, the skin of the bao need a huge improvement.

The serving at Ying Ker Lou are not possible for sharing as it is quite small.

Three Little Pigs & The Big Bad Wolf @ Bangsar Village

This is a NON- Halal restaurant. This shop impressed me the most with the way they handle the three little pig and service there was superb. Waiter will try to get what you want and they will friendly recommend their menu.

The menu. Look like a storybook.

Pork Lover Aglio Olio

This is a dry type of spaghetti with bacon, roast pork and meatball. 

The juice of the roast pork makes the spaghetti not too dry, the meatball are well prepared.

 I'm so hungry that I could eat a wolf!-  RM28

You can actually choose egg when you order this. Its might look simple with sausage,egg, bacon, mushroom, bread, hash brown and baked beans but the sausage are the shinning point in this dish. 

Once you bite the sausage, the juice from meat splash out which make the every penny you paid.

Garlic Roast Pork

This is one of the dish on the side dish menu. It is a caramalised roast pork.

This dish is my favourite, The caramalised roast pork are not too salty and it maintain the juiciness of the meat. 

All the above are from the pigs menu.

They have two menus :

Pigs menu: 9am- 6pm

Wolf menu :6pm-11pm
