All food and no walk makes people fat. So, let’s take a break now and look at some greens.

Some weeks ago when I was in back Kluang, I sort of went walking the hill (Gunung Lambak) with my parents after breakfast. It was only 8am+ in the morning *_*.

Welcome to Gunung Lambak Kluang!

They also have some sports equipment along the way.

Ahhhhhhhh parents always walk faster! Wait for me!!!

abandoned house gunung lambak kluang

There is also this weird, spooky, abandoned toilet along the slope. I wonder if there is anything else staying inside.

Kawasan Berkelah – Picnic spot. But people are meditating there…I don’t think anyone will have the heart to break the peace and silence there.

mushrooms gunung lambak kluang

Ahhh mushrooms on a log! I used to see them everywhere when I was younger.. but it has become a rare sight now.

This is just around the foothill, we did not really hike as all of us were wearing just slippers. It was a muddy and cloudy morning.

china treasure sime darby convention center

China Treasures, located on the 1st Floor of the Sime Darby Convention Centre, serves halal Chinese cuisine. So you can invite your Muslim friends along too.

dining table

It’s been a while since I last came to China Treasures, and it had undergone some major renovation. The courtyard, although unique and rather authentic in a Chinese restaurant, is taking up precious space. So they have removed the courtyard completely, and create more dining space, with privates rooms catering up to 40 person.

Sliced Cold Chicken topped with Green Chilli Sauce

The first dish was the Sliced Cold Chicken topped with Green Chilli Sauce. Although I’m quite used to cold food, but this is quite something else. But I didn’t enjoy it that much.

Appetizers

Deep Fried Mushroom with Wasabi Sauce

On the other hand, Deep Fried Mushroom with Wasabi Sauce is really nice, especially after dipping the mayonnaise based wasabi sauce. Definitely recommended as an apertiser.

Deep Fried Shimeiji Mushroom with Salted Egg

Deep Fried Shimeiji Mushroom with Salted Egg is another favourite of mine. A slight hint of salted egg, and it is also a little sweet. I will definitely come back for more of these.

Main Courses:

Double Boiled Seafood Soup in Whole Pumpkin

Double Boiled Seafood Soup in Whole Pumpkin comes with cleap soup, but with sweet aromatic taste. It is also the cheapest soup served in the here. Although there’s no pricey ingredients in it, I tasted some soft scallop. Nice for something that doesn’t burn your pocket!

Steam Live Star Garupa

Steam Live Star Garupa was still swimming in the tank less than an hour ago before it was served, so it has to be fresh and surely it was. Steamed with soya sauce, it will definitely please most fish lovers.

Roasted Duck Hong Kong Style

Then came the Roasted Duck Hong Kong Style. Unlike some of the roasted duck I’ve tried, this is really tender, even the breast meat.

When it comes to food, the fight never ends!

Even if it is just a turkey drama…

Only one turkey drumstick is harmed in the making…
