Okay, I just wanna share the best healing spot in Ulu Langat that I went 2 weeks ago.
So, my brain is piled up with a lot of workload and it’s time to release it. Me and my colleague, we decided to go to waterfall and having lunch at nearby restaurant. The restaurant name is Terra Pong Restaurant which indirectly means, Floating Restaurant. The food is Thai Muslim food, very delicious and you are required to book the place at least 24hours before arrival. I’m kind like how the way they manage the order, you book through their website food you want to order then you gotta pay 50% from the total amount, and pay another 50% when u finish eating at the restaurant. It’s been before pandemic that I want to come, and let’s check it out.
So, the building is basically a traditional art, not really sure from Malaysia or Thailand itself. There are huge parking lot, accommodate prayer room for muslim (Surau) and washroom. Let’s check it out!!
We came too early that the waterfall gate is close and need to wait like 20 minutes before the guy came. It cost RM2 per person, and parking so far its free. We paid at the entrance and walk inside the forest.When u walk in, there is some animal statue, these are the local animals that usually can be found in our forest. The entrance point where the track begin. Okay, if you want to go healing with a lot of stuff, I don’t recommend this place as It has a lot of steps. If you wanna come, it’s better to have a backpack style. easier for you to climb up the stepsAfter we hike about 10minutes, this is the 1st waterfall, and if there are more waterfall up there, but we just hike as long as we can see the waterfall. 😃 exhausted lolI brought my own milk tea “Teh Tarik” and feel gorgeous 😍 We ate “Nasi Lemak” and some “Kuih” I bought near to my home. We just bring ready made food just buy from nearby stall coz only me and 1 of my colleague. Oh!! btw, there are fishes in the water and we feed with our “Kuih”. I didn’t manage to get photo coz my phone was in my beg and too lazy to take it out. lol
After about 4 hours of spending time chit chat, bathe and eating, then we go to the restaurant we book a day before. Warning!!! You really need to book a day before, if not they won’t entertain you, or your food will arrive very late.
So it took 24 minutes from the waterfall to the restaurant. Oh! btw, the route is not easy access as you will require transport like renting a car and driving a village route.
24 minutes drive the village route by car
The restaurant is very near to the junction, so be careful when u want to enter the parking area. I missed the restaurant and make a U-turn at the nearby shops 😃
The entrance and restaurant nameWhen you enter, the washroom and prayer room (Surau) was on your right. This is the hallway to washroom and prayer room (Surau)Okay, so here is the washroom and place to take ablutionThe “Surau” entranceInside the “Surau”. When I enter, I feel like I’m in 80s Era 😃 remind me of my grandparents’ house I think this is smoking area..because it’s away from the restaurant.Shoe rack, but nobody put their shoe on it including me 😃This hallway is from the washroom n “Surau” to the restaurant eating areaOur reserved table 🥰 When u enter the restaurant, just go to the cashier and tell them your reservation nameTo get the food, you just ask the receptionist at the payment counter to serve you. I ordered “Ikan masak 3 rasa” with Thai Tomyam and Kailan Vegie “Sayur Kailan ikan masin”. The food is marvelous. I ordered mocha ice and my colleague ordered Ice lemon tea. I think it will be very nice if they serve dessert, but when I look into the menu, couldn’t find it.this is kinda like stage, I think those who want to accommodate wedding ceremony, can do it here.Beautiful right, so the restaurant is on the huge lake and it’s floating. Not exactly floating la, but looks like it’s floating. hahahaNot sure what is this, maybe for baby to take a nap.Oh yes!! You can feed the fishes there and they sell it about RM5 for 1 container like this. You can pay at the counter.Before heading to home, I take a glance of the restaurant. Beautiful, absolutely stunning 😍 ❤️
So…will come back to the restaurant??
Absolutely yes!! I will definitely come again and enjoy the food and view here. Insya Allah.
Hey guys!! I made some modification on previous dumpling. Well, nothing much changes, just on the the folding method, and cooking method 😃
So, previous dumpling was, I’m using the whole piece of skin. I’d found out its too big to chew. So, now I modified it by folding it into 2, then cut it into two. Sorry, forgot to take the picture. So, it happened to look like this…😀
Folding Gyoza 😃
Okay, let me cut a paper to show you how to fold it…sorry guys! I forgot to snap the pictures 😅
1. Imagine this is the skin..Im using paper for a demo 😄2. Fold it into half.3. Then, you cut it into two.
4. Okay, here is the part. Firstly, secure with water to glue the side of the cone. Then, you fill the meat. Lastly, secure the curve side with water to glue it. 5. When you glue the 1st side, it will looks something like this. Fill the filling inside, then glue the curve part. 😃6. You will get something like this.7. Lastly, tap tap all the sides. You don’t need water for this, or it will be too sticky. Just ensure no air bubble in the filling, or else it will pop out when you boil it later 🙂
Cooking method ☺
Okay, you can steam, you can boil, you can deep fry. But I choose to boil first, then stir fry my gyoza with olive oil 😂
Normally, gyoza you will fry the bottom, then add on some water for steaming. But hey, I wanna make my ownself. My own way. My Gyoza, My Rules. Hahahaha 😆
1. Boil Gyoza: okay, I pour water into my pot and let it boil first. Then I put my Gyoza inside, not too long. Just as long as my Gyoza floating, it consider done. Then, I filter the water using net. 2. Stir fry: okay you clean all messy water, let it dry first and put on lil bit of olive oil. Well, like what I said, its my gyoza and its my rule. I wanna use olive oil 😃. Hahaha. So, I put lil bit of olive oil, then let it fry lil bit. Then, switch to other side..then..wallaaa!! 🥰Final product: tadaaa!!! I ate with soy sauce mixed with sesame oil. Itadakimasu!!! 🥰
Okay, that’s all the modification done. I think this gonna be my fav dumpling ❤
