Nasi Lemak @ NagaLiar, Miri

NagaLiar located at Jalan Merpati, opposite Imperial Hotel, famous with its nasi lemak.
 
NagaLiar is using self service practice, where customers need to order and pay at the counter and it’s business hour is from 7:45 am to 3:30 pm

Bubur kacang hijau RM 1.80
 
Quite tasty, but I heard that its Bubur ChaCha is much better, too bad it was unavailable on the day I visited.

Nasi Rendang Kambing RM 5.30
 
What have we here, of course, rendang, fried egg, some sour vege, plus salted fish. What I disappointed was, I thought I will be given some “Papadam” biscuit as picture shown in the menu board, instead of fried egg.

Nasi Lemak Regular RM 3.80
A normal nasi lemak, plus a salted fish, fried egg and chicken wing. Same as Nasi Rendang Kambing, the rice has santan smell, but not strong.

Heard friend said NagaLiar nasi lemak is super yummy, but as far as I experience, it is just normal nasi lemak, maybe is because I had try nasi lemak that is much more yummy than NagaLiar in Kuala Lumpur.
 

FRATINI’S RESTAURANT @ Miri, Sarawak

Fratini’s Restaurant is located in Boulevard commercial centre, is an Italian Restaurant in Miri.





A nice and romantic atmosphere in the restaurant, just that the seat that we were sitting is a bit dirty on the day we visited.

They provide cheese powder on the table, which is my favourite. Too bad, I was not ordering pizza or spaghetti on that day.



Large cup of drinks, of course, with the higher price paid.

CREMA DI FUNGHI   RM 15

Cream of mushroom topped with cream and croutons. A good starter, tasty soup served with a slice of bread. I like this soup but is a bit too much for me, but is perfect for two to share.

FILETTO DI MANZO   RM 55

Grilled beef tenderloin served with anchovies and garlic jus, mashed potato and grilled vegetables.

RISOTTO AL NERO DI SEPPIA    RM 37

This is Italian rice braised in a black ink squid stew, topped with crispy tiger prawn. As there is no squid on that day, so they have changed it to mushrooms. Moderate rating, as I feel the taste is weird, I guess is because of the mushroom not suite with the tiger prawn and rice.

Overall, the foods are acceptable, and there is only few Italian restaurant in Miri, so Fratini’s Restaurant will be one of the good choice for those who like to have Italian foods.

Airy Cafe situated at lower floor of Boulevard Inn 富丽华酒店, just opposite the Boulevard Hypermarket.

The atmosphere inside the restaurant is good, tidy and clean, is comfortable to dine inside the restaurant. You can side inside the restaurant with air-conditioned and TV, or choose to sit outside the restaurant to chat loudly with friends. I have been there twice, and coincidently we had ordered the same dishes and having the same feedback: Roast pork rice and seafood fried rice.


The roast pork  RM 4.50, look quite nice, but disappointed to say that is not as delicious as I thought, the roast pork skin was too dry.

Roast pork rice with sauce served separately.

 
Seafood fried rice RM 6.00, as you can see, besides some small prawn, only green bean, egg, carrot, some chicken meat and corns, which are not seafood. Feel unworthy, it is more like simple fried rice rather than called as seafood fried rice, and it price a bit more expensive than other kind of fried rice. I am wondering how it’s simple fried rice will look like, only without prawn? However, the fried rice did taste good.

Mee Suah @ Hee Bing in Miri

Hee Bing 喜宾楼茶室, situated at Jalan Helenium, opposite Imperial Mall area. Heard that there is red wine chicken soup mee suah selling in this restaurant, so I thought give it a try.





Although it is using red wine, but it’s taste moderate, no taste of chicken soup and a bit salty. The chicken meat was too dry and the mee suah was starchy with no elastic. Well, for me a good chicken soup mee suah, not just the taste of the soup is important, but also the quality of the mee suah, which is the main ingredient to determine how good the chicken soup mee suah will be.
 

Marina Bay Seafood

Went there for few times but never try to dine in the restaurant – Marina Bay Seafood Restaurant, from its outside it looks like a high expense restaurant, worry that it will cost high for one meal. Recently family came to Miri to visit us, so we thought to have a try in this restaurant.

Marina Bay located at seaside, with a huge seahorse statue nearby, a very easy locate landmark, constitute a lovely and comfortable panorama.

 

 

 

No matter inside or outside the restaurant, it show its gorgeous design and decorations, some kind like Thailand or Malay culture. It serves not just Chinese cuisine, but also has another set of Italian menu foods.

Get ready to start eating

Surprisingly, the dishes are not that expensive that I though, of course if comparing with small restaurant outside, It a bit higher price. All these dishes plus one pot of Jasmine tea, 5 bowls of rice, 2 plates of snack, and 5% service charge, cost us total RM 92.93.

Well, It kind of enjoying eating there, especially if you choose to sit at the open sea view balcony seats, where you can hear the sound of wave, smell of the sea and enjoy the sunset. One thing to mention: advice not to look up as you will see lots of spider web stick on the lamp and roof. The restaurant should be caution on this.

Mee Suah @ New Lutong Cafe

New Lutong Cafe located in Lutong area, and every time I went there surely I will order Chicken soup Mee Suah. This restaurant’s mee suah is one of the best mee suah that I have ever ate.

The main ingredients, of course is chicken, mushroom, and wolfberries




I like the soup as it really taste good with wolfberries and some little red wine. There is usually 3 pieces of big chicken meat and the meat are soft, not as others which the meat dry after long hours cook. Just that the chicken mee suah may slightly bit of expensive compare other restaurant, RM 5.00, but is worth for my opinion.
