Boon Signature Roast Pork, Damansara Jaya – good siew yok (roast pork belly)

The art of making the “perfect” (perfect is subjective to preferences) siew yok (roast pork belly) and char siew (BBQ pork belly) is a revered skill that I’ve not mastered.
Besides, it is an arduous and tedious process that I do not care for with my current commitments.
Thus whenever I caught news of recommended outlets/stalls to enjoy good char siew or siew yok, I would make an effort to visit and try them personally.

Images of Boon Signature Roast Pork was making its rounds on social media recently. A few of my friends said it’s the “best siew yok” that they had had.
Since the location in Damansara Jaya isn’t far from home, I’ve made 2 separate lunch trips so far, during which I’ve shared different dishes with my friends. Both friends from both visits didn’t enjoy their meal though personally I did like the siew yok.

Delicious Mee Goreng Mamak by Warung Bob & Family @ Kota Damansara

I’m in Penang and I’ve just had 2 plates of mee goreng from 2 different stalls.
One is famous, the other not particularly known.
Both however, failed to satisfy my cravings for a good mee goreng.

After shoving aside my 2nd plate of blah mee goreng, I thought back of one that I’ve enjoyed at Warung Bob and Family in Kota Damansara just weeks before. Ironically, but happily enough, I’ve found an excellent and cheap mee goreng in KL and won’t not have to rely on my Penang trips to satisfy my yearnings anymore. That also means I can allocate my stomach for other food when I’m in Penang!
