Disappointing char koay teow @ Sisters Place, Ara Damansara

Sister's Place located just beside Evolve Mall in Ara Damansara is supposingly provide Penang version of food such as char koay teow and curry. However, the taste here were not up to my standard. Although this place is pork free, but they could do it better.

Taste:4/10(So-so. The char koey teow does not have wok hei and does not have fragrant smell and taste. The curry is very diluted and colour not same as in the menu. Colour is out and tasteless).
Price:5/10(Near expensive. Special char koay teow at MYR13.90 which is outrageous. Just a couple of prawns, squid and cockles. The portion is also small. As for curry in chee cheong fun and noodles, it was diluted. Charging MYR8.50 for a bowl of curry noodles is high).


Small portion of special char koay teow. Expensive and taste not that good.

Different curry colour compared to menu and diluted. This chee cheong fun dish is pricey.

The curry noodles does not look appetizing either.

The menu.

Pricey meal.

Tang Gourmet @ Paris, France

This friendly restaurant is located just steps from Place d'Italie metro station and on the edge of Chinatown. There is a range of a dozen-plus dishes available in many sizes either you want those dishes with noodles or rice. In Asian, those dishes with rice is known as mixed rice. Tang Gourmet also have huge variety of dumplings, samosas and other tid-bits. Roast ducks, chickens and pork hang on an adjacent counter and are chopped and sliced to order.

Taste:7/10(Moderate. Their board noodles with beef taste is moderate and without the pan taste. The chinese menu here are catered for Western taste bud and some of the items which is tasty if you eat in Asia but its blend here. Overall this place is still good to go if you are craving for Asian food if you are in Paris. Their spring roll is good. And I believe their duck and roasted pork is good as well as many customers choosing that. I won't choose duck or pork as that meal is quite normal for me and I wanted to try something different).
Price:6/10(Moderate. I believe this is among the cheapest eating place around Place d'Italie. For around 6 Euro, you can get quite a decent lunch here).
