Porky steamed rice at Sin Kee restaurant @ Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur

Sin Kee restaurant is a very crowded restaurant especially during lunch and dinner time. People come here to try their signature pork steamed rice also known as mun fan. Its a gravy laden rice with stewed pork. The serving amount is generous with big bowl of rice mixed with vegetables, stewed pork, chinese sausage, prawn and egg. Almost each tables ordered a portion of the signature steamed rice.

Taste:7/10(Moderate. The mun fan rice portion is huge with abundant of stewed pork slices. The rice however is slightly too salty for my liking and stewed pork slices lacked of aroma. Fried rice were good with plenty of ingredients plus lap cheong).
Price:8/10(Cheap. The portion here is huge. Each serving here is covered with big bowl. The mun fan and fried rice has adequate ingredients inside. Mun fan and fried rice priced at MYR9.50 each).

Old fashioned cafe at Souka @ Subang Jaya

Souka is an old-fashioned bakery shop which is located at SS15 opposite the Subang Jaya Medical Centre. Their cakes are freshly handmade and the place is suitable for gathering among friends. The cafe environment is very intuitive and with nice ambience.

Taste:7/10(Moderate. Do come here for their coffee. That's the item which they done the best. The matcha cheese cake has too much cream and lack of green tea taste. The mint mojito taste were good but lacking alcohol making it an expensive drink).
Price:4/10(Near expensive. The price of food items and drink here are not cheap. You are paying for the nice ambience environment to dine here. Ordered their matcha cheese cake at MYR15.00 per slice, latte at MYR9.00 and mint mojito at MYR13.00. Do take note that the mojito is non alcoholic).

Sensoji Temple @ Asakusa, Tokyo

Sensoji temple also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple is a Buddhist temple located in Asakusa. It is one of Tokyo's most colorful and popular temples.

The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. Consequently, Sensoji was built nearby for the goddess of Kannon. The temple was completed in 645, making it Tokyo's oldest temple.
