For all the news about Japan that we have been reading and watching, why not step out to help instead of just sighing in front of the media?

Sushi Tei steps forward to help Japan’s disaster victims

Kuala Lumpur, 18 March 2011 – Sushi Tei Malaysia www.sushitei.com today announced that it will be doing its part for the Japanese community by raising funds for the tsunami and earthquake victims in Japan.

In a one- day event on Friday, 25th March 2011, fifty percent (50%) of all its sales proceeds from all its outlets will be channeled towards the Malaysian Red Crescent Society, which is associated with the Japanese Red Cross Society (JRCS). The money from this charity drive will be used to provide immediate relief efforts and support for victims of the recent disaster.

During this time of devastation Sushi Tei urges everyone to join them in doing what they can for the tsunami and earthquake victims. It encourages members of the public to support the campaign and help the people of Japan.

Sushi Tei is located at:

• Pavilion KL
• Tropicana City Mall
• The Gardens
• Suria Sabah Shopping Mall

Looking for a place to chill out with friends after work on a Friday night? Perhaps The Daily Grind Gourmet Burgers at Bangsar Village I is a good place to go other than the same old Chilis and TGI’s.

At the first glance of The Daily Grind menu, you might think that it is similar to Chilis/TGIF, but soon you will notice their menu is actually way more extensive.

On a Friday night, we had a fun double date with witch couple since we have not hung out for quite a while.

The Daily Grind Gourmet Burgers @ Bangsar Village I is located at a secluded corner at LG (next to electrical shop), it is easy to miss if you don’t usually walk to that side of the world.

There’s also a smoking/bar section.

The interior of the restaurant is feeling quite the 60′s, it is not noisy and will be a perfect place for a good talking/catching up session.

TDG Crabby Caesar Salad RM25

As a starter, I really love the soft shell crabs in the greens! It adds colors to the healthy stuff, and the crisp and saltiness really spice up the leafs especially if you are not a salad person.

Nanchos with Cheese RM12

On the other hand, I think the nanchos is just alright.

Slow-cooked Lamb Stew RM28

The lamb stew is also a crowd’s favorite, the lamb cubes are flavorful and tender, wish we could have more!

TDG Dynamite Wings RM18

If you are a fan of buffalo wings, here is another type called the Dynamite Wings. It is hot! And the spiciness is not the immediate type, it will slowly explode in your taste bud after you swallow it. Nonetheless, I love it!

During the CNY, someone caught quite a huge Toman fish from the river and sold it to us for RM30.

It was a bargain as it was really cheap and fresh!

See? It’s meaty! I shall not show you the head of the fish as it looks really fierce with the teeth.

Firstly, make sure you scale the fish really clean and chop off the head.

Leave the head aside as we can cook fish soup with it later.

Now, the bone structure of the fish.

The best part about this Toman is, it has only one backbone, and no small and dangerous bones!

Internal affair….yes literally!

You know how sometimes you think of certain food, then you can immediately find friends for it?

It is a wonderful feeling!

Our first station to pack the food – Kedai Makanan Ah Heng @ Off Jalan Raja Laut.

It opens from 5.3opm onwards until 1am.

In the menu, there are: Black pepper pig stomach soap, pig’s trotter vinegar, braised pork ribs with bitter gourd,braised pig’s trotter with radish, braised pig’s trotter/intestines, wine chicken, curry chicken and etc.

The boss and and the pots!

Since we decided to eat in the comfort of home, we packed some dishes from this stall.

Braised pork belly and intestines.

The gravy was not overly thick and you could almost drink it! And being cooked for quite a while, the meat and intestines were soft and juicy. And the intestines had no typical smell of the intestines. YUM!

The next hit was braised pork ribs with bitter gourd.

If you are one of those who is afraid of bitterness, the bitter gourd here tasted NOT like the typical bitter gourd at all. In fact, it was just softly soaked melon and the pork ribs were lean ones.

For the pig’s stomach pepper soup, it was REALLY peppery! We almost got choked a few times after drinking it.
