This is still a convenient place to visit to have meals at whatever time of the day as they are open right from 11 am to 9pm. Also, you definitely can find parking and there are still no parking charges in this area. We arrived at 2pm and the restaurant was still very crowded. This place is well managed as food ordered arrived quickly and they are still as delicious as ever and staffs too are as friendly as ever.

Olives are concentrated in monounsaturated fats and a good source of vitamin E. In addition to vitamin E, olives contain avariety of beneficial active phytonutrient compounds including polyphenols and flavonoids, which also appear to have significant anti-inflammatory properties.
Vitamin E is the body's primary fat-soluble antioxidant. It goes after and directly neutralizes free radicals in all the fat-rich areas of the body. Free radical damage can lead to numerous ailments. For example, when free radicals cause the oxidation of cholesterol, the oxidized cholesterol damages blood vessels and builds up in arteries, and can eventually lead to heart attack or stroke. So, by preventing the oxidation of cholesterol, the nutrients in olives help to prevent heart disease.

Ingredients:
1 medium size aubergine (cut into long strips)
10 pcs pickled olives (sliced)
1 big onion
A little olive oil
Method:
1. Fry onions in a little oil

I have got to admit that the service wasn't that good as the staff was quite blur, mayb they're still new. The food was so-so, definitely could do with quite a bit of improvements. Taste wise it's just average and I don't think I'll be craving for anything from Loving Hut anytime soon.

Tried the Claypot Rice this time. Lots of goodies... =)


and the rojak

Labels: Chinese, Fusion, singapore, VHF, Western

Tip: If you were to visit Perth (or any other states in Australia), it is an extremely good idea to visit the local supermarket like Coles / Safeway / Woolworths to get some fresh local veg, herbs and fruits. If you would like to try some of the local veg, I'd recommend that you stay in self-contained cottages / apartments so that you can do some of your own cooking. =)


Fresh Parsley + Pot Mushrooms + onions

Rice vermicelli with shitake mushrooms, garlic, capsicum.

Labels: Asian, Cakes/Pastries, Chinese, Dessert, Fusion, picnic, Recipe, Western

Ingredients:
1 bowl of Red rice
1 big red onion
2 large Capsicums (One Red, One Green)
Some "seafood balls"

Method:
1. Cook the red rice the regular way.
2. Slice the top of the capsicums away and remove the seeds. (Do not throw away the top of the capsicum)
3. pre heat oven to 220C
4. stir fry the onions with the red rice and seafood balls.
5. stuff the capsicums.
6. Replace the top of the capsicums.
7. place in oven until the capsicums have cooked (it took about 10 minutes for mine to cook)
8. Enjoy hot!

Option: You can add replace the onions with garlic or some herbs like basil. If you are more of a noodle fan, I'd imagine this combination would go pretty well with some spaghetti and tomato sauce. You can even add some sliced capsicums to the stuffing.

I've not tried any dishes yet, but had a quick look at their menu. They serve mostly western food (pastas).

Their set lunch is priced at RM10.90, and comes with a soup of the day and ice lemon tea. The same thing for dinner is priced at RM8.90.

It's located on the ground floor of Jaya One, opposite Subway.

Preperation: 5 minutes
Cooking: 5-8 minutes

Ingredients:
1 medium sized Eggplant
2 medium sized tomatoes
3-4 medium sized fresh mushrooms
garlic
balsamic vinegar
Black Pepper

Method:
1. (I am using a non stick pan, so this is basically a dish that uses very little oil). Slice eggplant to a thickness of about 1 cm. Place the eggplants onto the non-stick. Flip eggplants when the sides are cooked. Remove and place onto serving dish.
2. Drop a few drops of olive oil onto a non-stick pan, add sliced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Add tomatoes last to perserve freshness and juiciness.
3. Top eggplants with the items from step #2.
4. Drizzle some balsamic vinegar / fat free italian dressing / dressing of your choice.
5. Sprinkle some black pepper.
6. Decorate with some parsley (optional)

* opt for the elongated asian eggplant if you want similar sized eggplant slices.
