Pantai Seafood Restaurant, Kg Sungai Kayu Ara, Petaling Jaya

Not long ago, my colleagues and I went for a farewell dinner for a colleague that will has left our company. After much discussion, we decided to go to Pantai Seafood Restaurant, Kg. Sungai Kayu Ara. It's really not difficult to find this place. Just go along Sprint away towards Damansara Jaya, don't turn left into Damansara Jaya after you took the exit to DJ from Sprint. Go straight and then turn left at the first junction into a smaller road. Go straight all the way and you see Pantai Seafood Restaurant on your right after a short drive.

The first thing that attracted me is the aquariums that is filled with many variety of seafood.

Most of the seafood in the aquariums are not cheap. They have very huge mantis prawn that is selling for RM 130/KG @_@



Australian Lobster RM 298/KG

Exotic Australian Snow Crab, prepare to pay RM 228/KG for it.




Then there's also Canada Geoduck that people always make fun of because of the shape. RM 238/KG.

We of course didn't order any of those exorbitant priced seafood, we didn't come here because one of us won the 4D lol.

I like to take photo of my colleague's daughter, she's always have some funny face expression.




First dish that is served is Sheung Tong Yuen Choi, there's garlic cloves and slightly fried century eggs in the soup too. Just a normal dish nothing that is too out of this world.

Stir-fried snails with garlic and dried shrimps. The way the do it is like stir-fried pork intestine. The snails is quite springy. Not too bad.




Special fried tofu is fried until crispy in the outside and still soft inside. Dip a bit of the special sauce give it an extra taste.

I forgot what dish is this, I think it's stir-fried mantis prawn with salted egg yolk. Up to standard with the salty egg yolk equally covering the prawn meat.




Lemon chicken. Normal.

Steamed fish in assam. Fish is fresh and the sauce is very appetizing.




Braised pork.

In short, Pantai Seafood Restaurant is just like any normal restaurant you find out there except maybe the exotic live seafood in the aquarium. If you just want to eat a normal seafood meal, there're many other cheaper and tastier restaurants. If you have the money to splurge then you can try out the exotic seafood here.

Two Girls with Their Lamb Chops and Apple Crumble Cake

I left a comment on Jan's post about wanting to go gai gai. The next day I got her email with her mobile phone number. I met Jan in the Nuffnang Pajama Party, and found out that she live very near my place. So, I asked her out for dinner on Thursday evening. Thinking it will be kinda weird for only me and Jan going out for dinner, so I asked Amy to join us too. As Amy is having evening classes so I decided to eat near KDU. So, we went to Restoran Yu Yiee, Damansara Jaya.

There is a stall selling Western food here that opens in the evening. Their specialty is spaghetti. Here you can eat spaghetti without having to spend more than RM 10. They also sell chicken chop, and lamb chop. You can opt to have spaghetti as side dishes for the chop.

My two dates, Amy & Jan

Jan and I waited in the restaurant for Amy because her lecturer drag the class until very late. Amy not wanting for us to wait came out earlier. She told us the lecturer said those that got appointment can opt to go earlier. Even though Amy live very near here but she haven't try the Western food here before. I ordered seafood spagetthi and both of the girls ordered lamb chop. Girls nowadays really can eat.

Seafood Spaghetti (RM 7.50)

My seafood spaghetti is cooked in tomato sauce. It has prawn, fish and mussel. The tomato tasted more towards the salty side rather than sourish side. The spaghetti got the right texture, not too hard or too soft. The fish and mussel is fresh but the prawn I think is frozen overnight. Overall not bad a spaghetti, down it in less than 15 minutes.

Rating: 3.5/5

Lamb Chop with Olio Aglio Spaghetti (RM 9)

Both Amy and Jan says that the spaghetti is a bit too dry for them but the lamb chop is not bad though. I've eaten chicken chop with spaghetti before and I quite like that dryness. Well, different people got different taste.

Their rating: 3/5


If you have noticed my title is lamb chops and apple crumble cake but the Western stall here doesn't serve dessert. Where could the apple crumble comes from? As Jan wrote in her blog that she's been a long time never go gai gai, so next we went to 1 Utama for gai gai. I went shopping for some grocery in Jusco. I think this is the first time girls looking while guy shop wtf. After getting my apples and cheese, it's time to make apple crumble cheese cake. After that, off we went to Pick n' Brew, yes where in the world in 1 Utama to find good apple crumble cheese cakes than here?

Saw Jackson working with his laptop when we walked in. Chatted with him and we sat down and ordered two drinks, coffee by the pot for me and hot vanilla for the girls to share. As I have OneCard, the beverage got a buy 1 free 1 promotion. This promotion only will be on during the month of April 2008.

Apple Crumble Cheese Cake

I must say that the apple crumble cheese cake tasted better than the last time I had in the Glenmarie outlet. It's not too sweet. So, I have to give it a re-rating.

Rating: 4/5


The supervisor serve us a piece of Mocha cheese cake F.O.C. So nice! Thanks. I didn't take the picture of the mocha cheese cake. 3 of us agreed that the apple crumble cheese cake tasted better. If not the mocha cheese cake might get a better rating.

Thank you Jackson for taking this picture for us

After drinking my coffee and eating such a delicious dessert, we went over to One World Hotel's toilet to do our business. As the battery in my camera died, so I can't camwhore in the toilet. I was done in less than 5 minutes. I waited and waited for both of them to come out from the toilet but after 5 minutes more still not appearing. So, I just walk around the corridor and stare at this.

Kura Japanese Restaurant, One World Hotel

I saw the menu and think it's not bad. Might come here to try it out a few months later. What attracted me is that it serves Uni (sea urchin) on plate. About a dozen. Usually only can find it made into sushi in other Japanese restaurant.

Both Amy and Jan only came out from the toilet after 5 minutes more. I don't have to ask. They were camwhoring in the toilet wtf.
