Asian Delights @ Bert's Cafe & Restaurant



Bert's Cafe is tucked away in a quiet corner of the Shah Alam industrial area is truly a hidden gem. I am glad to be introduced to this cafe by a friend recently. Some dishes worth checking out are mentioned below.


Creamy Butter Chicken RM14.90
Highly recommended also one of their best seller. Rich buttery goodness with tender fried chicken. The huge portion of chicken just WOW-ed me.


Moi RM9.90
Plain porridge with an abundance of sambal anchovies, fried shallots, coriander, spring onion and topped with salted egg. Pretty flavourful and interesting combination.


Nasi Lemak RM14.90
Instead of curry or rendang, its perfectly fried honey-spiced chicken to pair with the nasi lemak.


Thumbs up to the juicy and tender chicken though the chicken might look a little burnt.


Mee Kuah RM11.90
With an inspiration from the northern side, the gravy is made of sweet-potato and potatoes blend. Each bowl comes with beef slices, prawns, beancurd, herbs and boiled egg.


Cucur Udang RM7.90
Fried light and crispy, it comes with gula melaka as dipping sauce. I find the cucur udang lack in taste though.


Roti Jala RM7.90
Again, instead of the more common curry chicken, the roti jala is paired with beef curry. Perfectly done tender beef with flavourful curry. Yes..... there are slices of beef in the curry gravy.


Spicy Squid Spaghetti RM12.90


Bifstik RM11.90
Green peas soup, served with rice/garlic toast


Curry Kapten - RM13.90
Bert's Cafe family secret recipe which is not actually curry! Heavily spiced with tomato as base sauce, the gravy are packed with flavour.  My favourite dish of all and highly recommended.


Sago Gula Melaka RM5.90
Beautiful chilled sago in evaporated milk and a tablespoon of gula melaka on top.


S'mores RM9.90
With digestive biscuit as base, topped with marshmallow and chocolate syrup.


Ristretto Sundae RM9.90
With a shot of ristretto poured over crushed merinque, it comes with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and topped with shaved chocolate.


Meringue Sundae RM10.90
Crushed merinque with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream topped with fruits, chocolate syrups and groundnuts.


Iced Passionfruit Tea RM8.00

Lime + Mint RM8.00

All in all, Bert's Cafe served home made family recipe that not only affordable, taste extremely good but unique as well. Being a protein freak girl, I love how the chicken portion is bigger here and the best part you will get to choose your preferred chicken parts as well. Desserts are a tad sweet for my liking though. Phew... I'm glad that happen. Hahaha.....

Ten Years Restaurant - A Treasure Trove For Foodies


Last month, I was invited to the launch of the Ten Years Restaurant in Sri Petaling. Ten Years Restaurant offers the nation's most famous fares with all the best of Malaysian cuisine served under one roof. 

You no longer have to drove all the way to Penang for the best Char Koey Teow or even flew to Sabah for the Nasi Kuning Tawau. Ten Years Restaurant welcomes diners of all ages to savour the nation's most famous fares.

With dining areas for different eras, Ten Years concept is in line with 'through the ages' theme, with inspired settings that seamlessly meld cultures and history.

Ten Years Restaurant established by seven passionated friends who came together to establish an avenue to house the best Malaysian cuisine with a mix of cultures including Malay, Peranakan, Chinese and Indian specialities with the vision of preserving Malaysian food recipes for the future generation. With a unique business concept, Ten Years cater to the needs of franchises recipe owners. Working hand in hand, Ten Years offers strong marketing, branding and operation infrastructure, partnering with hawkers or restaurant owners owning signature Malaysian recipes to safeguard their recipes.

Among the speciality unique Malaysian dishes served at Ten Years includes Nancy Nyonya Laksa from Melaka, T&T Prawn Mee and Tiger Char Koey Teow from Pulau Pinang and Nasi Dagang Kak Pah from Terengganu.  Ten Years own specialities, called FUSION are inspired by traditional dishes from all over Malaysia, likes Lamb Masak Merah with 3 Colour Rice based off Johor style merah, Grilled Chicken Percik Sauce is a twist from Kelantan's popular dish, priced start from RM12.90.

Nasi Kuning Tawau origin from Sabah.
Tastefully created by her mother, Kak Tun takes pride in selling her mother's speciality Nasi Kuning. The secret recipe has to be the reason it's sold out by 7am daily. 

Wow... That early? Well, this yellow rice paired with mixed chilli paste and savoury grated coconut indeed never let me down. The whole chicken leg is tender and flavourful too.

Ten Years ultimate plans is to open 40 outlets in Malaysia by 2017 and aspires to expand overseas with branches across all ASEAN Countries as well as targeting to establish 200 outlets in China by 2020. All the best!
