Portuguese Grill Fish @ Oasis Food Court, Mid Valley Megamall, Kuala Lumpur

I have about this stall located in Mid Valley Megamall shopping complex for quite a while that they serve good grill fish. Today, I take the opportunity to try myself to verify such claims. As for their menu, they come with quite a number of combos. Most of the combos are around MYR8.90, ranging from a combo of fish with prawn, squid, cockles. There’s also a variety of fish, like pomfret, tilapia and stingray. I went for the stingray + squid combo at RM 8.90, rice included.

I am quite impressed with the staff’s ability to memorize each customers’ order and given the number of customers. The lady remembers who ordered and who has not, and she also remembers who ordered what! The dishes are pre-packed in the kitchen and grilled in the packet, right next to the cashier counter. A set of grilled seafood leaves the stall every 20-30 seconds and this stall is usually on long queue during meal times.

Taste:8/10(Good. The fish that I ordered cooked perfectly. The taste is a bit salty & quite spicy but its good. Recommended to those who want simple meal).
Price:8/10(Cheap. Most of the items priced at MYR8.90. For that price you will get fish, squid & some vegetables covered in spicy prawn paste sauce (belacan)).


My sting ray and squid meal. Ikan pari & sotong.

My combo set meal with rice. They also provide a lot lime where you can squeeze it into the fish for better taste.

Simplicity's the result of deep thought

I found this article in News Strait Times quite interesting to read. As my blog title suggest, try to make everything as simple as possible.

The deeper our understanding of truth is, the simpler we become. When the mind is free from wasteful thinking and the intellect has stopped asking "how, why and what" and our nature is also free from pretensions, only then can truth be experienced and expressed.

In order to attain the truth, one needs a simple intellect and a plain nature. Simplicity enhances clarity of perception and frees us from seeking diversions. One can go to any of the so-called "hot" hangout places on a Saturday and be overwhelmed at the number of young boys & girls partying on the kerbs and sidewalks. We cannot easily satisfy the young of today. They are not interested in teh simple pleasures of life, such as going for a walk or being with the family. Their whole life is spent seeking pleasure through expensive habits.

Be simple and our world also becomes simple and beautiful. All resources, time, thoughts, ideas, knowledge, money and materials are valued as investments.

These days, wealth has overtaken the desire for simplicity, which affects the way people are towards each other.

When you are simple, you do not beat around the bush. Rather you create a life with direction and planning which has fulfillment and purpose.

When there is simplicity within me, the thoughts that cloud my perception begin to fade and I can see the situation clearly. then naturally the decisions that follow become accurate too.

Thought for reflection: Simplicity sharpens the power of perception.
