Lily On The Go

My first attempt at baked salmon 31/10/10

There was a warehouse sale next to my brother's office. Initially I only thought of buying can tuna as the only thing I am good at is making tuna sandwich.
The lady there persuaded me that the frozen salmon is a good buy. At RM27/kg, I guess it is a steal.

Google the recipe and have my first attempt at bake salmon which was quite easy.

Just 2 tablespoon of melted garlic butter, 2 clove of garlic, 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/2 tsp of pepper and 1/2 tbsp of dill and 4tbsp of lemon juice and bake at 200 Celcius for 20 minutes

The result was... yummy for my mom and the rest of the family it was ok. Reason being... not enough salt. So the next time I will put 1tsp of salt and 1 tsp of pepper.

Steamy Affair at Brother Yat 30/10/10

I finally found Brother Yat after 3 weeks of looking for it. It turns we were suppose to turn right at the traffic light before Giant and upon reaching the 3rd road, turn left and Brother Yat Restaurant is there.

I have been wanting to try the sauna prawns and german pork knuckles.

Half a glass of beer and 300gm of prawns and loads of steam later... fresh succulent, sweet prawns. Can be eaten on is own or with the sauce that came with it.

The german knuckle with mongolian sauce, great on its own or as an accompanion with beer or wine. I love it without the sauce. The mongolion sauce is too spicy for me. The pickle vege helps to ease the rich taste of the pork.

The XO taufu accompanied with long bean is yummy. The belacan paku pakis is great with rice too. Total damage is RM90 with the most expensive is the german knuckle.

Lunch @ Duck King 30/10/2010

I got my increment and decide to spend my family lunch at Jaya One.
Duck King came highly recommended by my collegues.

I love the appetizer of cucumber served. Crunchy, with a hint of spice and garlic.

We decided on Beijing Duck and add an additional RM10 for the duck meat to be cooked with noodles. The cucumber and leeks with the crispy duck skin is really refreshing and yummy.

The duck meat fried noodles is nice, without the gamey smell.
