Roti Cobra @ Kedai Mekan Islamic Restoran - Centre Point

Is there anything more comforting than a Roti Cobra? I think not!!! Since coming to KK this has to be my favourite 'fast food' enjoyed anytime of the day. The roti from Kedai Makan Islamic Restoran don't come much better in my opinion, and this is possibly my favourite place to eat in Centre Point's Food Court. For the uninitiated (which I was when I arrived) Roti Cobra is quite simply a roti topped with either chicken or kambing curry and a fried egg, simple yet delicious! The chicken curry was especially good today as the meat just fell off the bone.
 

The food court's had a refurb recently with a new floor and bright, colourful tables and chairs.

 

The Bill : 1x Roti Cobra, 1x Teh Tarik Ping = 6.70 MYR

Pizza Pasta @ Luigi Malones - Marlin Roundabout

We've been meaning to try Luigi Malone's for some time now, as we were in the area we decided to pop in for their great value, lunchtime menu.

I picked one of the pasta options, Meatball Spaghetti. Perfectly cooked spaghetti in a tasty tomato sauce. My only grumble would have to be the 'meatballs' I should have looked at the menu more carefully as the meat used was chicken, I would have much preferred beef, but hey, thats my fault! Also the meat wasn't in 'balls' exactly more like a patty cut into squares. But at this price there's no real complaint! The pasta came with lettuce, a piece of bruschetta and a sprinkling of parmesan.

Vegetariana Pizza for The Little Nibbler, no grumbles here at all!!! A lovely thin crust pizza, quite different to any other pizza base we've tasted in KK. Topped with tomatoes, onions and peppers, oh and lets not forget lovely, gooey cheese. "A really fresh tasting pizza" said The Nibbler, happily.

Kitchai Ping and Coke Light for drinks.

There's something for everyone on Luigi's Lunch Menu.

Luigi Malone's is located along Jalan Tun Fuad Stephen on the Marlin Roundabout, opposite The Hyatt. The special lunch menu is available everyday of the week, luckily for us, on bank holidays too!

The Bill : 2x Luigi's Lunch = 22 MYR

Luigi's gets my vote for delicious lunchtime pizza!
Already looking forward to my next visit!!!

Burgers @ Bomber's Burger - Jalan Gaya

After the free samples it's now time to be a paying customer at KK's newest Burger Bar, Bomber's Burger. Not that burgers are the only thing on the menu, there's plenty of choice and variety, but for our first visit it had to be meaty Burgers!!! I opted for The Smoker, a tasty, meaty, burger with a smoked BBQ sauce, though not over powering like some BBQ sauces, actually quite subtle. Cheese, caramelized onions and salad were also crammed in too! Tasty and messy!!!

Route 66 for The Little Nibbler, the same meaty burger with caramelized onion, mushrooms, cheese and salad. Another winning burger.

 We also ordered a side of Chili Cheese Fries. Tangy, mildly spiced Texas chili on top of fries, with what I'd call a bechamel sauce, not exactly what I was expecting but tasty enough all the same, for my taste though, grated cheddar or another fairly strong cheese would have been better.

Bomber's Burger is located along Jalan Gaya, just about opposite BB Cafe and next door to Party Play.

The Bill : 1x Smoker, 1x Route 66, 1x Chili Cheese Fries, 1x Add On Onion Rings & Drink, 1x Vanilla Milkshake = 51.35 MYR

Bomber's Burger is another tasty addition to KK's growing burger scene. 

KK, Borneo's Burger Capital!!!

Chicken Rice @ Plus One Raihan Chicken Rice - Centre Point

Centre Point's Food Court is a great place to grab a bargain lunch and Plus One Raihnan Chicken Rice is probably the best bargain to be had in the whole place, and quite possibly in the whole of KK for that matter! For 2.70 MYR you get a good portion of tasty rice and chicken, sweet chilli sambal and soup. There's no plates here but who cares at this price who can complain! Not me that's for sure!!! I've paid a lot more for a lot less, not just in quantity but in quality of taste too!

Located in the basement of Centre Point, there's no missing the crowds here.

The Bill : 1x Nasi Ayam = 2.70 MYR

The best 2.70 Ringgit you'll spend by far, lah!!!

Chinese Food & New Diamond Restoran - Foh Sang

New Diamond Restoran is a deservedly popular chinese restaurant, it's usually packed to the rafters most evenings! Every time I've eaten here the food has been superb, tonight was no exception. First up, I picked Yung Chow fried rice, mixed veg, egg and pork, fried with rice. At last a fried rice worth eating! No stodgy rice here, fried rice as fried rice should be!!!

The Little Nibbler picked Hokkien noodles, thick noodles drenched in a savoury sauce with pork and cabbage. These noodles got the seal of approval all round!

Next up we had Sayur Manis fried with egg which is fast becoming a firm favourite with us. This was ok, not quite as good as some others we've had, no complaints really.

Pickles and peanuts along with a pot of chinese tea appear on your table as your seated, the first time I came here I thought they were free, but no such luck! Haha. The same can be said for the wet towels that magically appear stealth like from nowhere!!!

Diamond is located next door to Pick N Pay in Foh Sang.

The Bill : 1x Yung Chow Fried Rice, 1x Hokkien Noodles, 1x Sayur Manis, 1x Pickles/Peanuts, 1x Pot Chinese Tea, 2x Wet Towel = 25.80 MYR

Diamond is fantastic!!!

50% Off Pizza Pasta @ Bella - Jalan Gaya

Bella have, and have had some great offers on lately, here's their long standing offer of '50% Off Pizza Pasta' available everyday from 3 till 7pm. When I came backpacking in Borneo for the first time in 2008 I took advantage of the offer back then! I'm pleased to say I'm still taking advantage of the offer now!!!

Here's my pizza creation of artichoke and black olives, so tasty, topped off with parmesan and chilli oil, if you like it hot, that is! This pizza definitely passed my perfect base test, thin, crispy and light. Delicious!

The Little Nibbler opted for pasta, fettuccine, puttanesca style, which I'm led to believe is Italian for prostitute!!! Well, I don't know about that, but what I can tell you is that this dish was absolutely delicious! fettuccine in a mildly spiced tomato sauce with olives, capers and chilli. Wow!

Homemade lemonade and local Tenom coffee.

We decided to indulge slightly and shared a chocolate pudding, taste wise it was great, very chocolatey, though it has to be said it was very runny inside and slightly burnt on the top.

Bella is a very well known restaurant located in the heart of KK, along Jalan Gaya.

The Bill : 1x Pizza, 1x Pasta, 1x Chocolate Pudding, 1x Lemonade, 1x Coffee = 57.40 MYR

Who can resist half priced delicious food!

Not me!!!

Vietnamese Food @ Peppermint - Jalan Gaya

Everytime I go to Peppermint, no matter which branch, spicy chicken rice seems to be the most popular order. So today was my turn to join the masses! The portion of chicken was deep fried, chopped then topped with spicy chilli sauce, there were also some cucumber slices. The chicken tasted pretty good though in my opinion the Pho (which is my favourite dish here) is better! 

The Little Nibbler opted for the beef stew with rice, this was very good, the meat had obviously been slow cooked making the stew very rich in taste.

This is Peppermint's Jalan Gaya branch.

The Bill : 1x Spicy Chicken Rice, 1x Beef Stew Rice, 2x Ice Lemon Tea = 18.60 MYR

A taste of Vietnam!
