Soup Restaurant, Jaya Shopping Centre

With an impressive list of outlets located in Singapore, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur, I had to try Soup. I just had to…you know that feeling of wanting to try a certain outlet is so great that I finally found myself driving there on a wet afternoon!

The first thing I ordered was a glass of homemade barley drink. Prices at RM4 , I definitely thought it was a rip-off.

We tried the traditional boiled soup (RM22.90), served in an earthen pot. The pot lent a nice, distinct taste to the soup and we all yearned for more.

Beggar bowl rice with chicken (RM9.90) -  served with some vegetables on the side, this was a complete meal buy itself. I love the ginger garninshing.

Beggar bowl rice with minced pork (RM9.90) – this was once again served in a ‘pot’ which kept its content warm all throughout.

Hometown tofu (RM14.90) – deep fried and garnished with spring onion and parsley, and served with some gravy, I don’t quite like the taste of it.

Sam You Claypot, PJ New Town

This restaurant is not to be confused with Sam You which is located in PJ New Town too. Sam You Claypot basically does chicken rice and a selection of other food which are served in claypots, hence the name Sam You Claypot.

These were the drinks we ordered:-

Shali sour plum (RM2.80) and cincau (RM2). The cincau comes in a bottle, which was a plus because if you can’t finish it there, you could always take the bottle with you. The shali plum drink was brilliant!

Kerabu chicken feet (RM5) – with lots of chicken feet, the price can be considered cheap. However, I found this dish a tad too sour for me.

Stewed pork with mui choy (RM15) – mui choy always makes me eat more and that was what exactly happened today. I had to order an extra bowl of rice!

Stewed duck with black beans (RM16) – this dish was not only aromatic but the meat was tender and easy on the teeth!

This is called black vinegar pork leg (RM12) – when we ordered this , we expected just a tiny portion – we made our judgement based on the pricing. But, when it was served, we were in for a huge surprise as the serving was really huge. The dark brown, succulent pork was sweet and sourish, just the way I loved it.

The picture above shows the yummy yau mak we had  (RM7). I like the fact that the vegetables were not dried up and withered when served.

Claypot Station Restaurant Kota Damansara

The best way to describe the location of Claypot Station Restaurant is that it is located behind Sunway Giza and is on the same block as Kayu Nasi Kandar. It runs promotions quite often and for those who are familiar with online deals you will notice that you can get quite awesome deals from time to time.

So how did we end up here? We got a deal here some time back and liked the food. This time we are back to savour more dishes…albeit without the promotional deals.

Let me just warn you that the servings here are HUGE…so if you are a small eater then order less food…or get more people to go along with you.

This is the best dish here – claypot chicken. Very delicious and a must-try!

Stir fried yau mak – not bad.

The claypot tofu paled in terms of taste and appearance as compared to the other dishes.

All these inclusive of drinks for RM36 – and 2 happy tummies are filled.
