So far in my entire life, I've only eaten China Muslim food once and that was back then during the road trip when the Almera was launched. (http://www.ktheblogger.com/2013/01/eat-play-drive-with-nissan-almera.html)

Knowing of such dish's existence, I intend to find one that would be phenomenal according to my taste. So I decided to try out Dong Yi Shun:

 
Dong Yi Shun is a simple and plain restaurant where it's interior has both Chinese and Muslim style influence in it's ambiance.

 

 
It's fruit juices are made from real fruits and the mango juice that I tasted is not too sweet but the sweetness tends to come from the mango itself.

This is the Golden Empress Fragrant Fish:

 
Fish is okay and I find it relies heavily on the sauce for taste which is sweet.
Spicy Chicken with Dried Chili:

 
The chicken is indeed spicy and the dried chili, hard and probably best to avoid eating as the spiciness screwed up my taste buds on tasting some dishes that was later produced.

Anyway, moving on is the Xiao Long Pao:

 
Disappointed on this one because it seems to have sit for too long. The skin of the Xiao Long Pao is rubbery and thick and overpowers the taste of the meat inside which is not much. A good Xiao Long Pao has it's juicy soup flowing out from the inside but this one had none at all.

Pan Fried Chicken Dumplings:

 
This is not bad. The minced chicken inside is flavorful and in whole nice to eat.

Golden Salted Pepper Prawns:

D'Dream Cafe, SS2 Food Review OK Oct 17, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Taiwanese | Café | Noodles

Sometimes, a food joint attracts patrons to their establishment by way of their theme.
I would say D'Dream Cafe is one such place.

 
From the exterior of the building that it's located at, it seems just like your normal, regular, business-as-usual place; but once you step inside the cafe, you'll immediately recognize the world that the owner transport you to.

 
It's the fantasy world of Doraemon - the blue robotic cat from the future that has grown to more than just being an icon in Japan.

As can be clearly seen around the whole cafe, the owner is a much avid fan of Doraemon ever since he was a child and has a very large collection of Doraemon items and memorabilia.

 
The items displayed around the shop are just a small portion of his entire collection which the rest are in his home.
Surrounded with Doraemon related things, we entered into a cozy room that feels like a bedroom atmosphere to savor the dishes in this place.
Taiwanese food is what is served here and our first dish was the only dish that we ate that has something that goes along with the Doraemon theme:

 
It's the Minced Pork Rice. On the dish where the minced pork is piled in the middle on top of the rice with vegetables making a circle around it also lies some Doraemon shaped Fish Cakes. The fish cakes may proved adorable to be decorated in the dish but in terms of taste provided zero influence. But then again, the main thing in this dish IS the minced pork since that is what it's named. It costs a mere RM5 for it.

We then tried the "Three Cup Phoenix" minus the rice:

 
No doubt, the chicken may be tender and nicely cooked, yet it still requires the dish to be consumed with rice. Else it will be too salty to be eaten on it's own. Of course, this is a portion of just the chicken for us to taste. It's usually served with rice or ramen in a dish with the price of RM7.50.

The next thing that we tried is the Red-Braised Beef with Ramen:

There was a time in my life where I ate quite a lot of organic food circa 2008 era. This was back then when I was hanging out a lot with this couple friend of mine whom the wife had gotten ill and was determined to eat healthy so we followed suit to accompany her. There's not many places that we know of in order to get such a dish and most outlet just gives me the impression that organic food aren't that tasty and is expensive. But one restaurant impressed me with their organic dishes that tasted quite good.

Though I've long since abandoned the habit of eating healthy, I decided to see how much has organic food evolved since now it's gaining more awareness and more places such as Chef Low Organic Kitchen is coming up.

 
It's located at Boulevard 10, Bandar Utama area.This place looks like a ghost town after office hour but putting aside the scariness of an almost barren place, it's actually quite beautiful with a nice walkway in between buildings.But the sole purpose of my visit was of course to see how good can this restaurant's organic food be and how much does it closely resembles your normal MSG and preservative food that you consume outside.

Now before I go any further, I want to clarify that this restaurant is not only an Organic restaurant but a Vegan one as well since it does not serve food that is made from animals including eggs and milk.

They have organic items on display and for sale at the shelf entrance too:

 
But this place is mainly a restaurant than a shop that sells organic items.
The interior has homely lighting to brighten up the place with a dining room feel and mirrors at one side of the wall which gives out the impression of spaciousness to the place.

 
So then, it's onwards to the tasting of the food.
Some Fruit Tea were served to quench our thirst.

In my lifetime, as far as I can recall, I've only tasted 3 German restaurants in Malaysia and although German food may not be my favorite but it is to my liking. So far, I find that Bavarian Bierhaus is the best out of the 3.

Coincidentally, after pointing that out to a fellow friend, I was presented with the opportunity to savor a few more dishes from Bavarian Bierhaus which I immediately accepted to extensively find out whether other dishes that I've not tried appeal to me too.

 
The prices may appear to the common Malaysian as a once in a blue moon fine dining kind of thing but comparatively to other German restaurants, the prices are reasonable enough.

For starters we had a Selection of Cold Cut:

 
This is the Mix Cold Cut Platter that's fit for 2-3 persons. The price is RM88.
It's a plate sinfully filled with various pork meat to my delight.
It has Parma Ham, Salami Milano, Calabra Ham, Mortadella Ham and bacon with one spoon containing Pickled Cucumbers and another with onions. It's served with bread to counteract with the saltiness of the meat. A platter like this makes me long for a nice cold beer to go with it.

With that starter, we then had salad appetizers.
This is the Pork Salad:

 
Top most is bacon with grilled pork escalope with green salad and cherry tomatoes and some cheese seasoned with olive oil and a little mustard. It's mentioned crispy bacon that's in this pork salad but it's not as crispy as I find it to be. Rather, to me it's more of the chewy type which isn't a problem to me. I like bacon either way.

Caesar Salad:

 
Romaine lettuce with garlic dressing with Parma Ham as meat for the salad. Hard boiled omega eggs at the side with crispy Panini Croutons with grated Pecorino Cheese on top.
This is the first time I tasted a Caesar Salad that the meat feels like it's the main more than the overall salad dish. I've tasted 2 other types of Caesar Salad that contains meat in them before and that is with beef bacon bits or grilled chicken which complements the vegetables well. The Parma Ham though,(which I like eating) overpowers the other tastes in the dish, lettuce, egg, since it has a strong taste to it as oppose to lettuce and egg which has a way much milder taste to it. I'm not much of a salad guy but I presume a person asking for a salad would like a more balanced taste to it or the taste of greens to come on stronger combining with it's dressing. Not sure about croutons in the dish because I didn't see nor taste any at all. LOL. Perhaps it was at the bottom. No matter what, I like eating the ham. XD

One more salad dish is the Prawns Salad:

 
It contains prawns (obviously) that are grilled, some bacon, green salad, cherry tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, red onions and roasted pine nuts and some apples on the side. I'm not a fan of prawn but the overall taste of the dish is good enough. The combination may seemed a little weird but taste-wise not so and it gets the job done.

Next came the Mix Sausage Platter:

 
Various sausages with 5 different condiments on the side. I didn't try any of the condiments though. Just ate one of each sausage plain which is nicely done. Some of the sausages in the platter: Emmenthaler, Theuringer, Neurberger. Oh, and there's bacon again on top. ^.^

Next on the list, some nice Pork Ribs:

 
The sweet sauce, I presume it's BBQ Pineapple blends in well with the tender pork ribs. The meat itself is not salty like how a lot of places serve their pork ribs and is juicy but still needs the sauce to enhance it's taste.

Homemade Spinach Ricotta Cheese Ravioli:

Over at the busy mall location of Sunway Pyramid, 798 Shabu Shabu stands out from a lot of shops due to it's highly visible location from the road where it faces the row of shop lots opposite of it.

 
If you've never heard of shabu-shabu before, it's Japanese style hotpot where ingredients such as meat and vegetables are thrown in the hot pot to be cooked and consumed. Shabu-shabu is the sound of the boiling pot with the broth and ingredients in it cooking (that's how Japanese described it).

 
The place itself may not be an outdoor location of dining but it has an al fresco feel to it due to the sunshine being able to penetrate into the softly lit restaurant and a retractable awning with transparent roof on the inner part of the restaurant for those times when the sun doesn't shine that brightly.

 
The number 798 from the name of the restaurant signifies 7 types of meat slices, 9 types of soup base and 8 types of special sauces.

There is a large and wide variety of meat items, vegetables and noodles including some eggs spread out in a salad bar fashion for you to pick till your heart's content to add in to your hot pot:

 
These items include Peking Cabbage, Cheese Seafood Tofu, Crab Claws, "Boom" Beef and Pork Balls, Emperor Noodles and many more.

 

 

 
For me to pick out almost 1 of each of all items plus a noodle is already more than enough to fill my salad bowl which shows the vast variety of picking out your fave items:
