SALTed@Mutiara Damansara

ATT! If you are fans of sarawakian food, you shouldn't be missed out! Salted, which specialize in authentic and scrumptious of sarawak local dishes has moving to a shop which is spacious compared to the stall opened inside Zam Zam Cafe & Satay Club and gained reputation. There's no doubt that Malaysia have different kind of laksa, for example, curry laksa which is more on coconut based curry broth; assam laksa which is has texture of sour and fish based broth. Right here I would like to introduce and highly recommeded their Sarawak Laksa, Belacan Bihun and Kolo Mee which is unlikely to get it in KL.

Kolo Mee

Not a strange dish as this symbolize as famous local dish in Sarawak. The appearance of kolo mee is pale yellow, a bit thick and flat noodles and comes with the sides of minced chicken and garnish with shallots. The texture is crunchy and the flavour/aroma is with a hint of shallot oil.

Mee Jawa

Not an ordinary mee jawa you have at most of the stalls/restaurant, the version by SALTed is they added curry paste which turns out surprisingly good, fragrant and the twist taste between the natural sweetness of sweet potato and curry. There are two types of complimentary sides to be chosen from, beef or chicken, hard boiled egg, tauhu and garnished with chili and cilantro.

Belacan Bihun RM6.90

Okay this is a must try when you are at Salted! It is so hard to find authentic belacan mihun and it may be a strange dish in KL. The dish name said it, it is full of sambal belacan flavour. The acceptance may be vary to people, rather you likes it or you hate it but it should not be a problem if you are hard core spicy fans! The taste rather be spicy, sweet and sides with century eggs.

Sarawak Laksa (seafood) RM13.90

The soup base is sambal belacan which ultimately brings out the crimson colour and some others ingredients as well as topped with fresh prawns, omelette strips, freshly chopped coriander leaves and tadaa a traditional bowl of Sarawak Laksa is born.

Century Eggs

It also known as "Pitan" and normally you will find it eaten with white porridge. The texture is just like hard boiled and is like 'jelly', regards the yolk, it is actually fragrant but seriously it is vary to people. As for me, this "pitan" is just way too good.

Ribena Sprite

The twisting flavour of carbonated soft drink and the sweetness of Ribena.

Superthai Restaurant Uptown

Minimalistic decor of black wall, wooden furniture and soft mood lighting welcome guests into the confines of Superthai, a quaint eatery nestled in Uptown, where specialized in authentic Thai cuisine.

Superthai is a spin-off restaurant of Kompassion, which is reputedly one of the best Thai restaurant in the Klang Valley. The restaurant is located at second floor of the shop facing main road- look for Softsrve and you will find Superthai on the floor above.

Facade of Superthai Restaurant.

Red Tomyum. RM8.

Hot and Sour flavours, with fragrant spices and herbs generously used in the broth. They are quite delicious and most importantly, spicy as you’d have expected from the name.

Flame Grilled Pork Neck. RM27.

With just the right amount of lean meat, muscle, and fat, pork neck is so flavorful that I’m tempted to say that you couldn't resist it. Superthai is an non-halal restaurant and this appertizer is worth trying.

Salt and Pepper Squid. RM18.

Personally, this is our most recommended dish because we're suckers for salt-and-pepper squid, in all its crisp, spiced, deep-fried glory. We usually only eat salt and pepper squid out at Chinese restaurants as it’s a real treat, but now we can enjoy it in Superthai.

Dancing Fish in Sweet and Sour Gravy. RM45.

The fish has a crisp skin but soft in the inner, served with sweet and sour sauce drizzled on top and garnished with curry leaves.

Frame Grilled Pork Belly. RM 25.

Pork belly, nature’s striated masterpiece of fat and lean, the succulent essence of pig. Heh
Juicy and flavourful bbq pork belly with the homemade dipping sauce. It's so ridiculously awesome, words just can't describe. Guess the chef have diligently marinate the pork belly in the sauce. :)

Fried rice with crab meat. RM18

This dish is the staple favourite at most chinese restaurants but with the improved Thai version and 'wok hei'.

Red ruby jack fruit. RM10.

Coconut milk based dessert that is very popular among Thai when the weather is hot. The small reddish/pinkish jewels are water chestnut covered with tapioca flour, served with sweeten coconut milk and shaved ice. Shredded jackfruit and longan are added to this dessert to make it extra special.

Overall, I would say Superthai is reasonably affordable compared to other thai eateries as well as they are serving authentic, delicious and quality thai cuisine. Frankly, it is not easy to find authentic thai restaurant around Uptown, do drop by if you haven't.
