JB: Jusco: Food n Tea (Revisit 2)

Yup yup! I did went back to JB, but for 2 reasons! First was to go back to this HK cafe which i mentioned in my previous post! and as for the second reason, hmmp..i shall not mention here... heh.

Beef Slices in "Siew Chap" sauce, and braised tofu

First to be served was this, and i cheena pok ordered this! The beef as usual was good, soft and juicy. I really think come to this place, you gotta try their beef dishes. The rice was untouched though, as im not a ricey person, but i ate it with vermicelli instead! below!

Fried Vermicelli in "XO" sauce

This was the "want-to-try" dish which i mentioned in my previous post! Its pretty good, taste better than most fried vermicelli, but its supposed to be fried with "XO", but cant taste any "XO" sauce at all! But what can i expect from the amount i pay...

Shanghainese Fried Rice with Chicken Cutlet

I did not tried this, but it looks pretty normal to me, so i guess it should taste pretty normal too.

Baked Rice in Twin Sauce (Red is Tomato, and White is Cream sauce if im not wrong)

JJ ordered this, and he looks expressionless when eating this, so i guess theres nothing fantastic...

Thick Toast with Kaya and Peanut Butter

Just like my previous entry, just that there's additional kaya this time round. Taste wise, Kaya and peanut butter compliment each other pretty well. But bette check your cholesterol levels after eating this consecutively a few times...

Mango "Tong Shui"

Its not very sweet, meaning no sugar is added to enhanced the flavour. So the taste is purely from the mango itself. Very refreshing and light to the stomach.

Plum Juice with Sprite

Wanted to try something special, so tried this! A very refreshing and cooling mix.

Mango Custard

The Pastry is like those "man tou" that we dipped with chilli crabs gravy, but the interior is filled with mango cutard. The mango custard taste is not stong strong enough, but the "Kou Gan" is good! It should be better if fresh mango puree is used instead of custard!

JB:Jusco: Food n Tea

absolutely LOVE THIS PLACE! and im going back again tomorrow! i kinda suck at describing food from some feedback i get... haha...which i couldn't agree less. my vocab for describing food very limited larh... but words can be beautiful even thou the food suck. so why not just trust what i say!? If i say its good, it means its good! haha... its bad...means please don't ever try!

In order to try this Hongkong Cafe, you got to travel to Johor Bahru - Jusco Shopping Center. But its worth the trip! Here's some pictures for you!

Restoran Food & Tea

There it is... located at the last level of Jusco. Wondering why there are so many M'sia flags hanging around the place when Sg National day is coming soon!

Greeted by this banner before entering!

Ice Milk-Tea with Chin-Chow

A simply beverage, but the tea aroma is strong, not convered by the sweetness of the milk.

Black Pepper Beef Udon

This dish is sooo oily that you can see a thick layer of oil at the bottom of the plate. The Black Pepper gravy is black-pepperish enough, and the Beef is still succulent and juicy.

Beef Sandwich (MUST TRY for sandwich lovers!)

This got to be my favourite! Simple yet so good! Between the bread, you can find a few pieces of hot, thick and juicy beef slices and the interior of the sandwich is coated with butter. The first bite reveals the still sizzling hot and juicy pieces.

Butter Toast with Honey and Peanut Butter

This is a must try in all Hongkong cafes. Between the Bread is spread generously with peanut butter. The whole bread is fried and then coated with honey and butter. After frying, the inside will be a mess of watery peanut butter.

See how oily it is... but its definitely worth those calories.

This is what i want to try on my next visit! Mocha with oats! See how beautifully its done!

Fried Vermicelli in 'XO' sauce! snapped from the menu, and this is another dish i would love to try!

Mentos Gums!

Mentos Gums: Spearmint, Orange mint, Peppermint!

Equipped myself with 3 bottles of Chewing Gums with the coming semester; to kill the zzzzz monster during those boring lectures....

zzzzzz monster = engine lecturer

Swedish Breakfast

Rye Bread from IKEA (HALL OF SHAME)

Went Ikea to buy something and another thing, which is this thing up there! Swedish Bread! Being such a bready person as i am, i wanted to try this weird looking bread. since its so BIG! Diameter maybe 30cm across?!?! Spreaded it 1/3 with Apricot Jam, another third with Cheese, another third with Peanut butter! After eating, my gums get kind of bruised by all the munching and chewing... 

Verdict: Its soooo dry, so hard.... not nice... maybe i should it eat with soup instead! OR maybe use it as the crust for Hawaiian Pizza!

Wan Chai Hong Kong Tea Room

Initally wanted to go IMM to eat the Peanut Ice Kacang which Hao brought me last time. But, when i reached there, no cravings for it... so ended up in a HK Restaurant instead! It was a right move! haha...

Wan Chai Hong Kong Tea Room 03-55

Probably the crowd speaks for itself!

Egg Bread with Maple Syrup and Butter!!

The Bread nicely coated with egg, the maple blends in so well with the bread, the butter, too much thou, so removed them after taking this photo! But the whole package is so yummy! Toast Box is nothing compared to this!

4.2 Bread / 5 Bread

Steamed Rice with Egg and Beef

Very light, the gravy is not too thick so you won't get sick eating it. The beef nicely cooked to the right texture. Its taste is nothing extraordinary, but it gives you the homely feeling.

4.5/5

Signature Hor Fun

This Hor Fun is supposed to be their signature dish. But, was kinda dissapointed in it. The Kway Teow is chewy and QQ, Portion is big. Fish slice is thick, prawn is quite fresh, still got 2 mussels! but... it lacks something, it just doesn't feels right.
