Restoran Ho Chaz

Sunway Damansara in Kota Damansara is one very busy place as it is a huge commercial area. On a normal working day, traffic is horrendous and getting a parking space is simply crazy. Even if you are lucky enough to get a parking spot, chances are you will find someone double parked behind your car so you will have the inconvenience of trying to find the inconsiderate person to move his/her car. You might however be able to find parking in the shopping complex.
I always try going there on a weekend or public holiday as it is easier to find a parking space. It was on a Sunday that I decided to have brunch there at a restaurant called Ho Chaz. It probably meant Ho Chiak in Hokkien.  This place has quite a number of stalls serving some nice food.
When we arrived, we decided to sit at one of the empty tables laid outside the shop where it is much cooler in the mornings. My friend wanted to have his favourite dry curry noodles with roast pork so he ordered it while I ordered the char koay teow with duck egg. Our drinks arrived quite fast and soon after, the food was served.

The food especially the curry noodles were quite nice and priced at RM7 per serving. The wet version of the curry noodles normally come with taufu pok. I would prefer the Ipoh version of curry noodles as they taste much better.
As for the char koay teow, I would say it tasted reasonably good but I have tasted better ones in and around the Klang Valley. This is also priced at RM7. Not sure if it is the standard pricing of food now.
Anyway, this is one of the reasonably good places to eat if you are in the area.

Senya Japanese Restaurant revisited

Senya is a Japanese restaurant located in Publika and is always crowded with diners. When we went there the other day, we were lucky that there was an empty table available. When we were seated, the waitress gave us a couple of Ipad tablets to choose our food from their menu and place our order. Service is very fast here because the moment we placed our order, the food started arriving.
We ordered quite a number of things from their menu as you can see from the photos. The food here is delicious and fresh especially if you are into seafood.

We ordered some of the dishes different from the ones we previously had as posted in my earlier blog post. One of my favourites is the Hokkaido pork but I did not order it this time. For those who enjoy Japanese dining, this is a good place to go to.
