If you are a fan of garlic toast, perhaps you can try this recipe at home yourself. It’s delicious and cheap to make too!

Ingredients: Baguette, melted butter, and finely chopped garlic.

Melt a small block of butter in a pan or you can steam it, then minced the garlic until fine.

Before spreading it onto the baguette, add the garlic into the butter, add in some pepper and LITTLE bit of salt and mix well.

Now, you can spread onto the baguette.

Heat the oven/toaster first, and toast them at about 120°c for 3-4 minutes until they are crisp.

While waiting, you can move on to prepare the breakfast set.

98 Seafood Restaurant is located in Taipan, slightly further than the police station.

But once you are on the road, it is hard to miss this brightly lit restaurant at night.

It was packed on a Saturday night, and we waited for a good 30 mins before our food arrived. And it is better to make reservation if you have a crowd.

Patin Fish @ RM53.00

The first to arrive – steamed Patin fish.

The fish was fresh and the sauce was really fragrant!

Minced meat with bean curd @ RM18.00

Fried bean curd topped with minced meat was alright compared to other dishes.

Deluxe Claypot Seafood Combo @ RM48.00

The seafood claypot was sizzling hot with mushrooms, big fresh succulent prawns and fish maws. We wiped the pot clean!

Hello Friday everyone! Have planned your weekend already? If you haven’t and if you are a mall-person, I have 2 places to recommend:

The Curve Shopping Mall

If Ikea is your favorite place to hang out, swing by Bubba Gump for a dose of shrimps!

The staff gets really excited when you flick the sign to : STOP FOREST STOP

Scampi @ RM31.90.

Linguini resting on a bed of shrimps. The pasta was yummy with the rather fresh shrimps + a piece of toasted garlic butter bread.

And I think there were like 15 shrimps in the dish!

Chicken Fingers @ RM23.90.

If you have been to Chilis/TGI’s for this dish, you MUST try this at Bubba Gump. The chicken fillets were still tender wrapped in the crispy and tasty batter. The batter is not like other flours, they have seasoned the batter too! And there were also 2 onion rings on top of the bed of fries.

Mojo Cafe & Kitchen has recently been opened in SS2 in a row with Station Cafe. Located on the 2nd floor, it is not hard to miss the big red Mojo Upstairs sign above a new 7-11, which is in the same row as MacDonald’s SS2.

The restaurant has a classic and antique feeling that makes you feel like home.

The cabinets display the old-time household items that we used to see.

Old school iron anyone?

Soon, our appetizers were served.

Bruschetta RM7.90

Sliced Baguette  toasted with tomato, cheese and herb salsa, it makes a delicious bite before dinner.

Garlic Bread – RM5.90

This is my personal favorite as the fragrance of garlic complimented the crusty and crispy bread really well. Thumbs up!

Kaya Toast RM3.90

For the old school, you have a choice of homemade kaya toast. Absolutely loved the homemade kaya!

Moving on to the dinner, the main course selections are not exactly large, but it helps our mind to decide faster. We had the pleasure of sampling most of the hit items, but I shall rank the top 3 among all the dishes.

Crowd’s Top 3 Favorites:

#1 – Linguini Duck Aglio Olio RM18

Firstly, we don’t always get to see Aglio Olio with duck meat, secondly, this is really good!

Crispy duck skin and meat with linguini, (which you might think its bacon), tossed  in olive oil and chili flakes, it was so savory you can’t help but keep digging in.

#2 – Classic Chicken Chop RM13

Apparently, chicken chop is the top seller since launching. True enough, the chicken was pan-fried while retaining the juice and tenderness of the meat. Then served with fries and coleslaw. Yum!

#3 – Lamb Shank RM28

If you look close enough, you will find a bulb of garlic on the plate. The lamb shank was stewed till soft and tender, you can easily put your fork to rip the meat without struggling with knife.
