Just discovered this place for makan-makan where it feels so nostalgic and homey. If you are a fan of authentic traditional Malay cuisine, you will definitely like it here.
@kantinasampedas, located at the ground level of Residensi Bistari, Taman Ukay Bistari, serves variety of flavourful asam pedas dishes, specifically the Johor and Melaka styles. ❤️Interesting fact: The owner (husband) is from Johor while the wife (Kak Lin) is from Melaka. Hence, their food is really authentic. Cukup rasa!

Oh! Never forget to try their Cekodok too. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Marvellous! 👌🏼 Makan sahaja tak cukup, tapao lagi!
My first roundCekodok (must try!!!)
On Fridays, they give out free dessert too like that day I went, got bubur kacang hijau.
I love the ambience here. Very nostalgic kampung feel. Instantly brought me back to my childhood days. The walls are decorated with so many classical items like old handphones, cigarette boxes, posters and many more.
Do come and try these delicious asam pedas dishes and let me know if you love it!

I always make sure my nutrients are in check, having a healthy & balanced diet with ngam ngam portion. The newly opened, Ngam Ngam Neighbourhood that is located on the 3rd Floor of Lalaport Bukit Bintang City Centre does just that by serving healthy food with a twist of local flavour.
What’s Ngam Ngam? “Ngam” means “Just right” or “Suitable” in the Cantonese dialect. With this, the founder wishes that everyone can get the right amount of nutrients to fulfill their daily diet necessities to maintain a healthy lifestyle at affordable price. Isn’t this cute?
I was invited to attend its grand opening on 10 July 2022 and boy did I enjoy the party! We started off with a meal. I chose the Salmon Set and Shrimp Set. Delicious healthy meals, great to replenish energy and protein especially after working out. They have other sets too like Chicken Set and Unagi Set. Vegetarian options are available too.
I like the idea of having us to pick our own sauce and condiments at its special counter. There are healthy options like sesame, chia seeds, seaweed, sunflower seeds and special sauces like leicha sauce, garlic sauce and many more to choose from.
It was also my first experience working out on Lalaport’s Central Rooftop Garden. The HIIT exercise session was led by fitness trainer, Joey Tng. It was very nice to get an opportunity to meet some other fellow influencers like Cherish, Ailyne, Cindy, Vernis and Agnes. (Do checkout their IG)
Here I congratulate Ngam Ngam Neighbourhood on their grand opening and wish them good business all year round! For more information about Ngam Ngam Neighbourhood, check out their social media.

I am very honoured to be invited to attend the Resipi Berani MAGGI® Season 2 – Exclusive Watch Party last Wednesday and I must say I had fun watching Episode 1 with my fellow bloggers. I still remember the hall had a good laugh from the reactions of the mentors especially the witty Sheila Rusly and also some finalists who gave spontaneous and unexpected answers to the questions asked by the mentors. There was one saying that she loves menembak (shooting) and everyone in the watch party laughed so hard at her impetuous answer. Eventually she used to be a military reserve force. Bang! Bang!
Catch the episode for more excitement and see how these ladies learn to build their cooking hobby into a profitable business.
Host, Nana MahazanFellow bloggers
