WOK-ON-FIRE CHEF
Famous Shot Of Hong Kong Chef Alex Au In Action
Well, I'm back again to taste & review Chef Alex Au new creation of Special Rice & Noodles Lunch Set at Starhill Gallery Feast Village now!
La Mian Soup With Bacon & Seasonal Vegetable
RM 35
My Top Pick For The Day
Spot light of the day would probably be this La Mian Soup served with house made bacon and seasonal vegetable swimming in a thick and hearty pork bones broth. The crunchy noodles were amazing and matching that with flavourfull bacon slices, one wouldn’t know what this is until they dig into it.
True comfort satisfaction from a simple bowl of La Mian with concentrated flavours from the long hours of brewing the pork bones and chicken resulting into a nutritious and milky soup with smokey flavours accentuate from the sinful bacon. Dig in and slurp your way into these delicious noodles!
Stir Fried La Mian With Pork & Seasonal Vegetable
RM 35
Living up to his expertise in noodle preparetion, Chef Alex's version of Stir Fried La Mian had a fragrant aroma of the charred pork slices, so full of Wok-Hei. The juicy pork slices works because the clean, crisp flavours of the noodles serve to flatter the flavour of the pork whilst simultaneously making the fat a little less overwhelming.
There was a good mix of textures in the plate from the tender spring of the Lai Mian, to the soft pork slices to the crunchy fresh bean sprouts. Pick this if you love a good plate of fried noodles!
Fried Rice With Barbecued Pork, Prawns & Seasonal Vegetable
RM 35
Next, on the lunch menu set, you can opt for some simple Fried Rice With Barbecued Pork, Prawns & Seasonal Vegetable. This simple dish fares average only as compare to the rest of the dishes offered.
Lemon Chicken Chop With Rice & Seasonal Vegetable
RM 35
Chef Alex's 'rendition' of Lemon Chicken Chop is simple yet tasty - A myriad of crispy battered chicken had the sourish tone from the lemon partnering with sweet from his own concoction of several sauces. Juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, well seasoned and marinated, you can taste the flavouring not only on the skin but also within the juicy meat of the chicken thigh.
Delectable even without sauce, crispy and delicious, the lemon sauce along with tender chicken pieces went perfectly with the restaurant's warm rice. Never really a fan of Lemon Chicken Chop with Rice, but this particular dish prepared by Hong Kong Chef Alex Au hits all the right spots in my taste buds. Served with rice and a side of seasonal vegetable, I'd say the chicken chop is worth your go! 😋😋😋
Rice With Braised Pork Belly With Preserved Moi Choy & Seasonal Vegetable
RM 45
RM 45
Dig into their porky menu featuring Rice With Braised Pork Belly or Baked Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs served with seasonal vegetable.
This one of my favourite dish to eat at any restaurants. My late mum used to cook this authentic Hakka dish at home. The process to cook this pork dish is tedious and troublesome from soaking of the preserved vegetables (Mui Choy) to marinating and preparing the pork belly before steaming the whole dish for long hours.
So when I have the opportunity to try it at Pak Loh Chiu Chow, I was totally delighted plus feeling nostalgic too. Chef Alex explained the long process of preparing the pork dish which actually started a day prior to serving. Pork neck meat was used with the even meat to fat ratio thus making soft and good to munch - a result of rich marination, coated with a thin layer of delectable sauce. Yums-yums, I would have loved to hog this whole plate to myself!
Rice With Baked Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs & Seasonal Vegetables
RM 45
RM 45
Paying homage to pork ribs fans, one simply must order Rice With Baked Sweet & Sour Spare Ribs & Seasonal Vegetables.
The finger licking spare ribs are braised till soft and tender, oozing with flavour. Specially imported ingredients of 'Chen Kong Prized Vinegar' from China, Chinese herbs, and with sweet coming from rock sugar and block sugar, Chef utilised red yeast rice for the natural red colouring instead of using artificial colouring for the dish, so can be assured no artificial preservatives are used for the red colouring. The spare ribs get a little sweet, but one get the pork's natural flavour and the tang of vinegar is a nice contrast.
Apart from the Week Day Set Lunch dishes, diners can choose a variety of a la carte dishes from Hong Kong Roasted Meats, Chiu Chow Marinade, pork, chicken cuisine to healthy soups, porridge, noodles, fried rice, eggs, vegetables and much more.
