Kristang Christmas 2011 @ Simply Mel’s

Want to celebrate Christmas 2011 with a twist? Ever heard of Kristang cuisine? It’s a mixture of Malaccan and Portuguese, is one that is not commonly found especially in KL. Aunty Mel came up with the idea of opening Simply Mel’s restaurant, to provide authentic Kristang dishes that are as close to the real thing as possible for all of us. The star of the night was traditional Roast Chicken with Sage onion stuffing, wrapped in beef bacon. Look at the giant chicken roasted to a golden brown!

Aunt Ann’s Roast Pork

Xmas is coming soon, so we’re invited by Aunt Ann herself for dinner. I heard the Roast Pork she made is marvellous, so how can I say no to her invite? We were served Roast Pork Shoulder. Without any expectations, we entered her premises only to be welcomed by the glorious aroma of freshly roasted pork.

If you’re health conscious then fear not, Aunt Ann uses Pork Shoulder instead. Pork shoulder is actually much harder to roast compared to pork belly, because of the thickness of the lean meat within. It certainly requires some skills to ensure that the pork shoulder is roasted evenly from outside right to the deepest core.

Aunt Ann also makes a mean Roast Lamb. Each piece at a minimum of 2kg, was nicely well-marinated with lots of herbs and spices, before being roasted to perfection.

Bibimbap @ Ko Hyang

If you love healthy food, then you are in sync with me ! I love Bibimbap, it able to fill your stomach without feeling guilty Smile  It’s served with warm white rice topped with vegetables, seaweed, sliced meat, a raw egg and most importantly, the flavoursome gochujang (chilli paste), the combination is mixed thoroughly before being savoured. There are two variations of Bibimbap, you either take it cold or take it hot on a hot stone bowl, the latter known as Dol Sot Bibimbap. The stone bowl still sizzled when I mixed the combination, emitting an irresistible aroma in the process that had me salivating before I ate.
