Frame Your Best Moments at Frames, Sunway Pyramid

Do you ever think of dining while sharing your best shots of photos to the owner? If they like it, you can place it at your restaurant for free. The best part, there there is a buyer, you get some share of it ! Frames is a relatively new restaurant located at Sunway Pyramid, just next to Starbucks at the main entrance. The restaurant is named such due to the abundance of framed photos hung around the walls. These photos are by no means plagiarized or bought off-the-shelf, instead they are actual genuine photos from the owner’s friends and customers.

Top 5 + 3 Sarawak Food at PJ Hilton

I guess this post will be an eye opener for Peninsular residents to know what' the East has to offer in term of food. Now, you don’t need to fly there as Hilton PJ took the effort to invite special guest Chef Jamilah all the way from Sarawak to showcase her vast knowledge and skill here. Sarawak is famed for its multi-ethnic population of Malay, Chinese, Indian, Iban, Penan, Kayan and other indigenous people, hence the culinary palate has slight influences from each culture.

#1: Steamed Red Bario Rice

Bario Rice is regarded by the natives as the best and finest rice from the highlands of Sarawak. According to the natives, the rice is only eaten by the longhouse chief on special occasion.

Si Chuan / Sze Chuan Cuisine @ Jin Shan Cheng, Sunway

Having a huge appetite for Si Chuan food, wifey and I search for this Chinese cuisine in Malaysia. This cuisine is originated from the Sichuan province of China, has an unmistakable pungent and bold flavour, particularly a numbing spiciness that is a result of liberal use of garlic, chili and peppercorn. Incidentally, the people in Sichuan eat a lot of hot peppercorn to counter the effect of continuous humidity experienced in the province. One evening, we managed to find it - Jin Shan Cheng from Uncle Google. :)
