Sekincan: Tummy treats

I have been to Sekincan a few times. I come here for a break and for the seafood. The same schedule for every trip.

1. reach after lunch and check in Harbour View Hotel Sekincan. The best hotel in Sekincan by the main road. Clean and Cheap.

2. buy prawn cracker in Pasir Penambang. Pasir Penambang is a small town, sitting on the banks of the selangor river. It is 15 minutes drive from Sekincan and it is nearer to Kuala Selangor.

KL: Food Hunt

Sharing some good food that I have tried this time.

This Klang Ba Ku Teh is one of my favourite. Klang is a bit far. And by the time we reached there, I was too hungry until I forgot to capture any photos.

I will post some old photos later.

Portugese Grill Fish
Oasis Food Court
Level 2 Midvalley

When I want to dine in Midvalley, this Portugese Grill Fish will always pop in my mind. The Portugese Grill Fish stall is located at Oasis Food Court, Level 2 MidValley. I had tried the famous Portugese Grill Fish at Petaling Street before. I opt for this stall as it serves the same tasty dish in a more comfortable environment.

The stall offers a wide variety of seafood to be grilled with the special spicy sauce. I remember they have stingray, prawn, squid, clams and a lot more other seafoods. How does it taste like? It tastes spicy, spicy and spicy. But then it is a delicious spicy taste. Yummy! Yummy!

After the spicy food, I passed by this Gelatissimo. When I walked closer, they were so friendly and gave me a few spoons to try on different flavours. How can I resist this? :) I chose mango and banana for my two-flavour cone. From the taste and the name, I guess it is Gelato, Italian ice-cream. Not too sure about it.


I was attracted by the stall

5 mins later, I got this in my hand!

I was here for the irresistible crepe cake. Crepe cake was made by continue layering thin crepe and cream filling alternately until it reaches the height of a cake. It needs at least 30 layers of crepe to form a cake. It is best served chilled.


They have 4 flavours in the menu, vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and orange chocolate. I ordered a Chocolate crepe cake, but then the waiter came back and told me that chocolate flavour is out. So, I changed to Vanilla flavour. It looks delicous and tastes as great.


spent quite a while to find the restaurant

We ordered one ginger onion fried beef hor fun and one prawn noodles. The beef is tender and soft while the prawn is big and sweet. A lunch for 2 costs RM38.

KL: Fish Spa Experience

Kenko Reflexology & Fish Spa from Singapore was first lauched in Malaysia last November. The two species of fish used in the spa treatment are Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. However they are more commonly known as Doctor Fish. What you need to do is to sit and dip your legs in the pool and leave the remaining jobs to the fishes. The fishes will then work hard to remove the dirts and dead skin of your legs. The fish treatment lasts for 1/2 hour and of course, it is a more gentle way of removing dead skin compare to body scrub products. Hopefully, they are going to open one branch in penang soon.
