Kolak Pisang (Homemade style) - Another Indonesian dish

2010-11-30T11:37:00.001-05:00

What the heck is that? Some Viewers might be asking...:) It is actually called Kolak Fruit, it is super refreshing and delicious. It is another Indonesian Dish made of palm sugar and coconut milk. This inside fruit consist of sweet potato, banana, jack fruit, and other fruit (hehe, I've to ask my friend, because she's the one who made this delicious dish). Well, if you're living outside Indonesia, it is very hard to find this desert although it is very good after dinner snack or if you're hungry in between lunch, you know what I mean, right :)

According to Wikipedia.com, "Kolak or Kolek is an Indonesian dessert made with palm sugar and coconut milk, with pandanus leaf (P. amaryllifolius) for flavour. In some versions, mung beans are also used, and cooked till soft.Banana may be added to this base, the dish then being known as kolek pisang. Pumpkin, sweet potato, jackfruit, plantain and/or cassava, and sometimes pearl tapioca may also be added. It is served either hot (especially if freshly cooked) or cold. Kolak is popular during the holy month of Ramadan, and is usually served cold during Iftar."

It says you can served it cold or hot, it's true though, because I've try them both condition. But for 1st time eater, I would says you should eat it hot, because it gives you fresh feeling, rich flavor (because it hasn't mixed with ice or anything), and the fruit has more taste to it. However, if you can't finish it, you can always put it to the fridge.

If you're really want to made this at home, I can give you some tips:

Ingrdients:

2 Banana (Pisang)

   2         Cassava (Singkong)
   200 ml Coconut milk (Santan)
   3 tbsp Palm sugar (Gula merah)
   200 ml Water (air)

Directions:

English:

1. Cut banana and cassava into pieces. Boiled those ingredients in 200 ml water.

2. Pour in the coconut milk and the palm sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolved.

3. Simmer until the cassava tender and the sauce not to runny. Serve hot or cold.

I would says good luck trying (for you who want to made it), otherwise happy eating and of course happy holiday (because it's holiday season y'all). Oh ya...Happy Thank's Giving...My thank's giving meal blog coming up soon...Please wait...It will be sooo delicious and exciting....

Shabu-shabu at Taipei Rstaurant

2010-11-17T23:00:00.001-05:00

Welcome back guys!! It's winter here now. What could be better than eating shabu2 soup self-cook (in US, sometimes you called it Hot Pot) dishes, right?? Yeah, this shabu2 is at Taipei Restaurant in Duluth, GA. I would say this one is different than any other Chinese shabu2 around. This one is Taiwanese shabu2, not Chinese. You ought to try this one.

Okay, for you guys, who new, to this shabu2 thing; basically shabu2 is a kind of dish that you cook your self. Off course they provide you raw meat and vegetables (you can choose seafood or beef, pork, or chicken), Then they give you broth (usually you can choose what type of broth: chicken, beef, seafood) and if you want spicy or regular. After that, you have to mix your own sauce, they usually give you lots of choice kind sauce at a different table or bar. You mix your own sauce. For example: I like to mix soy sauce with garlic, white vinegar, hot sauce, small cut of céleri, cayenne pepper, and a little bit of Hoisin Sauce. Ohh...just typing those words made me drool already. Then you put everything into the boiling broth and eat. We usually eat with white rice on the side. It's optional, becase they sometimes gives you somekind of glass noodle on the vegertable plate.

The food at this restaurant I said is very fresh, delicate, nice thin cut of meat, and delicious. I order beef and seafood (fish, shrimp, scallop)...yummsss...I would say the soup is very delicious...I can tell that it's does not have as many if not MSG like any other shabu2 around. I think it's because it's a Taiwanese food. Well basically, I cook the vegetables 1st (corn, cabbage, mushroom, meatball, tofu, etc), then I grab it using the hole stick net to grab all the stuff without the soup, then eat it, then I put the meat, wait until it's done, then dip it on the sauce I made, then eat it with rice. So refreshing....I can eat this anytime anywhere yo.

Ok, the Taipei Restaurant at Duluth is at the corner shopping center beside that quik trip on Buford Hwy. I would say the Restaurant is clean, comfortable, and very convenient. They also have a regular menu order, beside this shabu2. I will review those next time y'all, when I come back there. Anyway, here is the complete address if you want to try:

Taipei Restaurant

3940 Buford Hwy NW
Duluth, GA 30096

Please remember they close at 10 pm week day and 11 pm weekend, so don't go there too late guys (sorry for you guys who get out work late nite), but order the food, sit down, relax, enjoy the tea before and after eat, what could be better than that?? It's heaven on earth...so...please do enjoy....see you guys next time.

Note: I put different text, so you guys won't be too bored reading :)

Spicy, Sweet, & Sour Fish at Bo Bo Garden

2010-11-13T02:29:00.003-05:00

Okay, this one is a fish if you can't see it clearly. It is flour fried fish with sweet, sour, and spicy sauce. Yummss...yummss...yummy... Just look at the picture (especially the sauce). It is deep, rich, and look very tasty. I don't think this one is on the restaurant menu. Well, when I went to the Restaurant, I ask them to make me a special fish with the sauce that I want. So, there it is...so if you want to order, probably you can spell out the title above or just show this picture to them (well if you've internet access at the restaurant ... :) )

I must say the fish is very crispy yet tender with extravaganza great smell aroma, even you can smell it at 50 feet away. I mean look at the picture, the brown sauce with lots of colorful spice and small bites green onion on a white plate create not only a perfection dish, but also it creates a fine dining menu experience. The difference is, hehe, it is a chinese food, it cost only around $10, while fine dining may be cost at least $30, even Japanese restaurant (with this portion of fish) probably around $22...haha...Yeah, $22 - $10 (fish cost), you can buy starbucks after wards for $4, and on the way home buy ice cream at supermarket for $2.50, large chips for $2.99, and 1 liter soda for $1, and still left $1.50 to go into your savings account...hahaha...It's like Geico insurance always says..."$15 minutes save you $50 or more on car insurance"

Anyway, if you want to try this fish, come to this restaurant in Atlanta, GA. Here is the full address:

Bo Bo Garden
5181 Buford Hwy NE
Atlanta, GA 30340

One thing I just want you to make sure, is to order some hot Chinese tea such as jasmine tea, because that food looks like can add sizes to your pants or shirt...you know, the tea help to reduce those a little bit... Enjoy guys...

Home Made Asinan Buah - Spicy Sweet Sour Flavor

2010-11-11T02:06:00.000-05:00

Hello Food Lover, how are ya? Yeah, it's been a long time, I haven't blog you a new food...

Ok, Asinan buah is combination of slice fruit bowl from Asia. The soup is spicy, sweet, and sour flavor mixed into one. It's like real life you know, sometimes spicy, then sour, off course finally sweet. :) Just have to remember the sweet usually comes the last after the spicy and sour is finished. The same when you are eating this "Asinan Buah;" the sweet taste come at the very last.

Basically you can put any sliced fruit inside the bowl. Usually it comes with pineapple, sweet potato sliced, cucumber sliced, sliced of bengkoang, salak fruit, jambu fruit, and kedondong. Sorry, some of the fruit is native asian natural fruit (Hard to find in English). When you start eating this "Asinan Buah" you will never stop eating until you finish. This what happened to me, I plan to split into two days. However, as I begin eating; well, I said "one more bite, " "then another," "well another one, " until what's left is the soup...hahaha...That feels so good even after "the eating taste" on your mouth. You know sometimes the taste of your mouth after eating can be "not comfortable", but this one gives you fresh taste, mouth watering, and feels want more.

"Asinan Buah" definitely one of dish you need to try if you're travelling around Asia, or if you can't, may be China Town good enough...:) Just make sure you come in to a restaurant in ChinaTown with ratings 90 or above...hahaha...you know what I mean...

Lemper - Indonesian Chicken Sticky Rice

2010-11-03T19:20:00.000-04:00

Lemper is an Indonesian Chicken Sticky Rice. Yeah, it looks kind of nasty, but it's actually very delicious. It is made of sticky rice with a very fine chicken, and then wrap like an egg roll; It's usually cover with banana leaf. This food is very popular in Indonesia country. It's like hot dog in US. However, to get a fine lemper in US is very hard. It needs a perfect moist inside, with perfect stickiness (you don't want to sticky, because it will look like a glue), and a very fresh chicken inside.

You need to passionate and gently steam the rice. Also, you need to cook the chicken with delicate and special ingredients to make the unique aroma. Then you roll it in the banana leaf, to make like an egg roll. Well you know, I just know the theory, never try to make one myself. But if you have a chance to visit Indonesia someday, you have to try it.

Lemper usually eat as a snack or sometimes serve as an appetizer before you eat. Or may be it can be a late night snack at home when you hungry, when you couldn't sleep at night (hehe you know how hard to find a a great snack at night time). This one may be can make a perfect companion for your night snack.

This one is my friend made for me here in the US. But if you're really interested, I mean really interested, I probably can ask my friend to make it for you (off course you need to deal with them about the fee hehe)...Nothing free anymore in this world you know...Oh yeah, there is still one thing still free in this world... It is GOOGLE...:) But that's after you pay for a computer, electricity, and internet connection..haha...Enjoy, guys...

Beet Gazpacho Soup at Mediterra Princeton New Jersey

2010-10-29T23:47:00.002-04:00

Yeah, it's the weekend guys. I feel good today, that's why I gave you a fine dining menu today. This one is Beet Gazpacho Soup with a bit of olive oil at Mediterra Restaurant on Princeton University New Jersey. I would say this one is best Gazpacho ever on anywhere in the US. For you who don't know Gazpacho or never try one; According to Wikipedia.com, Gazpacho is "cold Spanish tomato-based raw vegetable soup, originating in the southern region of Andalusia." It taste very fresh, feels like lots of vitamins, and savvy-delicious flavor.

This one is actually "soup of day" choice of pick of 3 course menu. I have to say that the appetizer takes it all. The soup is presented with a slice of bread, a little drip of olive oil, and with a tiny chop of green onion on top. I mean look at those, it's a good looking soup, well presented, and great flavor. Oh yeah, the big bowl also adds a prestige of the soup, it makes the soup looks extravaganza and precious in the middle of the bowl. It's like a diamond in the middle of the ring (haha, you know what I mean, ladies)...

Okay, if you happen to be at Princeton University, here is the address of the restaurant:

Mediterra

29 Hulfish Street

Princeton, New Jersey 08542

The cost per-person is about $39 - $45 includes appetizer, entrée, and desert...Hey if you're on vacations, who cares about the money right...Just charge it, worry to pay it later...:)

Home Made Siomay - Chinese Indonesian Cuisine

2010-10-28T18:59:00.000-04:00

My friend made me one of the best food on my B'day. It is called Siomay. According to Wikipedia.com, Siomay is "an Indonesian steamed fish dumpling with vegetables served in peanut sauce." This is one of the best Siomay around. It is home made. But Siomay is more like traditional chinese Indonesian cuisine. It can be made of fish or chicken or pork or even shrim or mixed.

This one is perfectly done with lots of moisture, fresh taste, and very delicious. The way you eat this is you dipped it with the sweet spicy sauce that comes with it (as shown on the picture). If you have peanut sauce, you can use it as a sauce as well. You might can get this at Dim Sum restaurant, but it is a lot different. Come one, as a food lover we need to try every food from each different continent. This one is happened to be from Indonesia.

Oh I forget the orange stuff on top of the meat is small peeled carrot. So, this one basically is pork dumpling mixed with secret ingredients and cover by dumpling sheet. Oh...just described this thing makes me want to eat again. Anyway, if you want it, you can go to Indonesian restaurant or you happen to know Indonesian people that can make this for you (you know what I mean)...

hehe...Thank you for reading and I will post more food soon.

Have a great day and happy eating...

Spring Roll at Moto Japanese Steak & Sushi

2010-10-22T23:36:00.000-04:00

The Best spring Roll. Yes, It is. I mean look at the picture. It filled with vegetables and some meat....It is very delicious though...With a little sauce, as you see on the picture, it is spicy, sweet, and sour sauce. The way you eat it is dipped the roll to the sauce, eat it, but don't double dipped again yo, it's nasty.

Actually I got this roll for free, because one of my friend work here. I think the name is spring roll, but I am not sure. I don't want you guys wrong order. But anyway, the vegetables is fresh, delicious, and crisp taste.

If I could give you guys suggestion, is always to order appetizer before your entrée. The reason being is usually appetizer cost a little cheaper than entrée, so you don't have to order too many entrée, especially in Chinese / Japanese food. Also, the 2nd reason is usually appetizer don't have a big size, so if you are the person who likes to try something new or different, appetizer is for you. The 3rd reason off course is if you're really hungry, appetizer can filled a bit, before the real entrée comes.

Anyway, this spring roll is from Sushi Moto at Cumming, GA. Here is the full address:

Moto Japanese Steak & Sushi

655 Atlanta Rd
Cumming, GA 30040

Enjoy guys...the price in this restaurant is cheap, so don't eat too much...:)

Fruit Bowl at Hangbok - Happy Karaoke

2010-10-21T23:52:00.001-04:00

What else to order if you're singing so hard?? Yeah, that's right. It is a bowl of fruit. The fruit in this place is fresh, sweet, and lots of fiber in it. They put a small umbrella, fake leaf and small presentation; but they all adds perfection of eating fruit.

I remember I was full after dinner, but when I see the presentation of this fresh fruit, I can't resist those. I mean look at those picture. Colorful, so fresh, and looks so healthy. It consists of orange, green grape, red grape, apple, peach, watermelon, melon, pineapple, banana, strawberry, and kiwi. Wow...it's that complete, guys. They give you toothpicks wrap with color wrapping on top just for decoration. I think they did an excellent job of presenting fruit.

Remember this is a karaoke place, so you eat the fruit one bite at a time and sing and eat again and sing. So, just make sure you grab the right toothpicks, not someone else...:)

Anyway, if you haven't tried go to private karaoke before, it is actually a fun place, you don't have to be a good singer to go here. It is also not a bad place or for bad people...it is private room for your whole family or friends, so you're not with strangers inside, and off course no one knows if you're a terrific singer (you know what I mean)...

Who doesn't like Crispy Calamari, right?? If you don't like what you see, it's probably you don't like seafood or you're blind. I am sorry, it is one of the BEST of Crispy Calamari around the world. This one is on fine dining HH Prime (steak & Seafood) at Hilton Head, SC.

The picture is fresh cook Calamari with flash fried Wasabi Aioli. The sauce is so good that you want to lick the sauce plate. That words "Aioli" is garlic with olive oil and some other small ingredients plus wasabi in here. If you see the red sauce is actually hot sauce (yeah, this fine dining actually give you chili hot sauce)...so that this aioli thing has a perfect balance of saltiness, moist, sweet, and with a little kick of Wasabi. Oh...man perfect..I would just put the sauce with anything...so yummss...

The best way to eat it is grab your fried calamari, dip it on the sauce, and slash with that hot chili, bite it, and...hmmm...double dip it again to that Aioli if no one sees it...Just Kidding..don't do it, it's nasty...But the Crispy Calamari is perfectly cooked, it's not oily, but it's not dry as well.

All about Prime Pork at Honey Pig Restaurant

2010-10-08T01:22:00.000-04:00

Do you like pork? That's the question I begin with, before you reading on. If you answer No, then this information is for your friend or family out there. If you answer Yes, then that's it, you have to GO Here to try. The restaurant called Honey Pig at Duluth, GA.

It's like hibachi, but cook yourself food. Very delicious and fun to eat here. Place is also very comfy, nice, and clean. It is a Korean atmosphere. The food on the picture called Honey Pig Samgyupsal and Prime Pork shoulder Butt. It consists of slices of pork belly meat (similar to uncured bacon) and pork shoulder butt (off course). I know I know, it sounds nasty, but it's good. Don't judge the food by the words (well, just like don't judge the book by it's cover). It comes with all the veggie above (as you see on the picture).

Okay, here is the important, the way you eat it is a form of art.

Grilled Lamb Chops with Sofrito Rice & Olive Jus at TWIST

2010-10-06T20:47:00.000-04:00

Fine Dining..of course it's different kind of food and service. This one is perfect blend of Lamb Chops with delicate and delicious sauce. Lamb is so tender, a perfect singed on the outside, and has been marinated to the perfection. The rice is a different story though, the rich aroma of the rice with tomato creates a perfect balance between sweet and spice (hard to describe, but it's easy to eat, ya know what I mean)...

The lamb sauce is sweet, yet salty with a little zingi taste to add a perfection to the lamb and rice. You can't have a meat without a sauce, it's like you play computer without the program. But the sauce really different than any other kind. You have to try to believe it.

Oh..There is 1 more thing lack from this dishes, it is the amount. I need more meat and more rice man, but what can you say...It is a fine dining, cost around $20 per-plate, plus to add tax and tips, you know how it is. If you can't pay tips, you better not to eat out.

This dishes I got from the Twist Restaurant in Phipps Plaza at Lenox. Here is the full address of the restaurant:

3500 Peachtree Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30326

Eat, enjoy it while you still can...

Coffee Johaness at Intermezzo

2010-10-06T01:39:00.001-04:00

Cafe Johaness is the best ice cold coffee in town. You don't want to miss this. I will drink this everyday. It is deep rich coffee top with vanilla ice cream and some secret ingredients with whipped cream on top. Trust me order this when you go to the cafe Intermezzo.

Place is nice for dating and hang-out when you don't know what to do at midnight on weekend. Food is good, but that coffee drink on the picture is the best one. This one is the perfect blend of everything. I will update if I have some more information of what's inside.

For now, order this and you'll love it so much and come back to order some more. It cost about $8 or $9 is worth of the money. But you need to be careful though, you might not be able to sleep at night because of the strong coffee. But no problem for coffee lover.

Atlanta has 2 locations: one on Buckhead and the other on Dunwoody. This one is on the Dunwoody, here is the address:

4505 Ashford-Dunwoody Road
Dunwoody, Georgia 30346

Chili's Chocolate Molten Cake

2010-10-04T22:47:00.001-04:00

Wow...can't stop eating these. Every time, I went to eat Molten's cake, I always love it. Cake is warm, toped with vanilla ice-cream under a chocolate shell.

Next time, you go to chili's, don't forget to order Chocolate's Molten Cake. Don't eat too full, though on the entrée. You can always go here just to eat the cake, that's what I did. Love it, Love it, Love it.

Now, it's make's me want to eat it while I writing this and uploading the picture. That's how delicious this cake is. It's only around $6 feels like heaven on earth while you sip a bite of the cake, ice cream, and hard shell in one bite.

That's it I'm going to eat this pretty soon...

I'm getting this one on Chili's at Windward Parkway, here is the address:

5035 Windward Pkwy
Alpharetta, GA 30004-3890

Hurry get this, before they change their menu around....Don't change the molten's cake menu Chili's, otherwise, I might stop going there...:)

Umaido Tonkatsu Ramen

2010-10-04T01:45:00.000-04:00

Today is Sunday, I feel like going to the noodle (ramen) place. I went to Umaido, it's like Japanese noodle house. The place is very simple and casual. You can sit on the table or at bar high table. Noodle here is home-made, very original and authentic.

You should try Tonkatsu Ramen. It is the 1st one on the menu. Price is only $6.95. You can switch to spicy ramen (called spicy-men) if you like spicy. It comes with egg, chasy, green onion, tree ear, and bean sprout. The soup is very refreshing and is the key secret ingredients here. The egg is so delicious. It's done outside, but half-done on the inside (wow..very unique and extra yummy). If you finish your noodle, simply just scream "kae-dama" for an extra noodle just for $0.99.

Price is good, food is good. That's all is matter right. Try here, you'll love the food and the simplicity of the place.

Got to try it...if you're visiting Suwanee, GA.

Here is the full address:

2790 Lawrenceville Suwanee Road Northwest

Please leave comment after you try here...Greatly appreciated...

Houston's Hawaian Ribeye

2010-10-02T15:31:00.001-04:00

Okay, this is one sort of fine dining menu's for you guys. It is a Hawaian Ribeye steak on Houston's Restaurant. This one is on Atlanta, GA. The steak has so much flavor. It's super tender steak, roussi on top, and very fresh hawaian flavor on the meat.

This one is one of the best steak around. The steak has been marinated to the perfection for 14 days. I think it cost around $40 per plate. But it's worth to try if you feel like splurges a little bit on your weekend, if ya know what I mean.

The baked potato's on the side also give a little twist while you're eating along with the steak in one bite. If I have to give the score to the steak, let's say from 1-10, I would give the score of 10 means perfection.

Visit there today and don't forget to make the reservations, because more likely you'll have to wait on the line, smelling the aroma of the food, while you're in super hungry mode.

Here is the address of the restaurant where I went to:

3321 Lenox Road NE

Atlanta, GA 30326-1334

Ps: Don't forget to bring money tip as well...If we can't leave tip, probably we shouldn't eat out at the 1st place anyway...

Suno Papinsu

2010-09-30T23:40:00.000-04:00

Today, I visited suno desert on Duluth, GA. It was a nice weather ourside, however, I feel like to eating desert. This one is unique and different. It's call Papinsu Suno Desert.

It is consist of very smooth frozen yogurt on the bottom with Kiwi, Strawberry, Rice Cake, Red Bean, Ai-Yu Jelly, Grain powder, Condensed Milk, and Cherry. Those mix combination fruit and other stuff make this one perfect desert.

I would say it is sweet, but not overpowered everything. The rice cake give you chewy bite, mix with a little kiwi, and read bean, put those in one spoon and take it to your mouth. It heavenly taste in one bite. This Papinsu is pretty large size, two people needed to finish this.

Do not try it to bring it home and eat it again. It taste so different. I would say, if you finish your meal and don't know where to go...try this one..It will put a little sweet to your nite...if ya know what I mean...hehe :)

Here is the complete address:

2570 Pleasant Hill Rd
Ste 101
