Lai Foong Beef Noodle Shop, Cheras, KL

One of our favorite beef noodles in KL is Lai Foong, located in Taman Taynton View, Cheras. This shop is air-conditioned and clean and service is friendly too. You can click here to read more about the history of this beef noodles.



Over here, you can choose from four types of noodles, namely lai fun, kuey teow, mee hoon or mee and whether you would like it in soup or dry. Then, proceed to choose which types of meat you would like with your noodles. I love the soup version with lai fun, which is flavorful, robust and appetizing, thanks to the addition of preserved salted vegetable (kiam chai). We would usually go for Option BA, which comes with beef balls, tripe and tripe. The accompanying chilli dip is pretty kickass too!

Tamaruya, Isetan The Japan Store KL - Meat Tasting Bar

Back at Isetan The Japan Store for the third time to satisfy our Japanese food cravings. Our first stop was Tamaruya, to check out the Wagyu beef on offer.

Tamaruya is a meat tasting bar, whereby customers can choose from a range of meat on offer (beef, chicken, lamb), pay and then the chef will cook it for you. We picked a piece of Australian Wagyu sirloin (RM39.90 per 100g), approximately 260g and the marbling on the meat was excellent for the price paid. We paid RM104.50 for the Wagyu and another RM10 cooking charge, which I think is reasonable.




Pick your meat and bring to the counter for cooking

We requested for medium rare doneness, and the chef did a really good job and presented us with a beautifully cooked steak. The steak was well-seasoned, had a nice crust and the melt-in-the-mouth texture. Loved it!






Other than the Wagyu steak, we also had the special bara chirashi don (RM25) and salmon zanmai (RM38) from Shoya Sushi Bar. You can actually order from different outlets (just let them know where you will be sitting, and the food will be brought to you). We like sitting at the sushi counter, as we get to see all the sushi making action by the chefs.

The price at Shoya has increased slightly since our first visit and I find that the bara chirashi is not as nice as previously as they cut the ingredients much finer (I prefer them slightly chunkier), nevertheless still an enjoyable bowl of bara chirashi.

Watched as the chef made bowls and bowls of bara chirashi!
