Rafs has been living in the Seputeh area for the past few years. Soon, she will be moving to a new place and finally be rid of any bad vibes left over from idiot ex. So while I am happy for new beginnings, I'm also upset that she only brought me to Siu Siu for the first time recently. How could it be that this thriving neighbourhood restaurant escaped our attention for so long? I mean, its literally down the road! Incidentally, there is also a superb nasi lemak stall nearby.The night was cool and the place was buzzing with large Chinese families. After we ordered, my pupils dilated to the size of saucers watching mouth-watering dishes fly past our table. The food looked fantastic and I have to pat myself on the back for taking photos and not diving in immediately. We had sweet and sour pork, lemon chicken, homemade tofu with braised minced pork, oil-drowned aubergine in claypot and token vegetable. The pork resembled crisp pieces of batter and the lemon chicken even crispier. The pale and wobbly tofu was a delicious contrast to the garlicky pork. I could've had a massage with the amount of oil in the aubergine but it was utterly sublime and worth the potential heart attack. I've been back twice since and apart from that one time we had to wait 1.5 hours for our food, it was been fantastic! Great simple Chinese cooking in a relaxed and open environment. After dinner you can take a drive through the cemetery and entertain your fellow passengers with horror stories.
Siu Siu is located in Robson Heights. 15-11 Lorong Syed Putra Kiri, 50450 Kuala Lumpur
Aiyoh my char siu princess...siu2 also makes a mean char siu. But don't go near their claypot crab rice...not worth the money spent coz it's so tasteless.

ReplyDeleteYou make them sound like packs of flies roaming around the restaurants, hungry for makan, which isn't too far off the mark. *sniggers8
Hah, actually I have tried the char siu there and it was pretty darn good! You see, I was so completely lost and stripped down to my soul by the lusciousness of the char siu that it was actually erased from my memory for the sake of my sanity.
ReplyDeleteHmmm was thinking more like bees and honey but flies work too I guess! haha
My god, woman! If only the Pig knows the effect its body has on certain species of women (particularly the ravenous rabbit kind).
ReplyDeleteDid Meena mentioned Claypot Crab Rice????? And Char Siu too...sistas..forget about Japs and let's go SIU SIU together!!
ReplyDeletehahaha good idea Pea!! But LL doesn't recommend the claypot crab, which is fine by me. I rather eat salted egg yolk crab. Yum yum!
