Not very long after I first visited Tupai Tupai Restaurant Cafe, I returned to try their Seafood Steamboat Buffet which is available only at night. The buffet is RM28 per Adult and RM15 for children. Prices are nett.

You have a choice of chicken stock, tom yam stock or a 2-in-1. We opted for the 2-in-1 steamboat set. I must say that there was a fairly good variety of raw food available – fish, large prawns, freshwater prawns and chicken wings, a few varieties of mushroom, various fish balls, lots of vegetables and even noodles. There is a small cooked food section with fried rice, fried noodles, pasta with sauce and a variety of fresh fruit, tapai and ice cream for dessert.

You can’t quite argue that its not value for money if you can eat a lot!

I enjoy eating at Little Taiwan at Midvalley Megamall. So when I saw this green colored Little Taiwan at 1 Utama I did a double take. It was called Papa Beef Mama Chop Little Taiwan and is the Halal counterpart to the non-Halal Little Taiwan restaurant! How quaint!

Papa Chop Mama Grill Little Taiwan

Papa Beef Mama Chop Little Taiwan serves Taiwanese food using halal ingredients so no pork here only chicken and beef. So out of curiousity I had to try it to see how it fared.

I had a braised chicken served over rice. Its a small bowl of rice served with braised mince chicken served with half a hardboiled braised egg. I love this at Babu Taiwan Restaurant which is non-halal.

At Little Taiwan I was disappointed. The braised meat was salty and they had poured too much gravy over the rice. Honestly I don’t quite mind it as i like lots of gravy on my rice but it does look unappetizing.
