Broga Hill – The hike & the Food!

Broga Hill.

The whole trip was supposed to be about the hike up the hill, and the sunrise of course.

Well, for me Broga was more about the FOOD. And having heard so much about the “ikan bakar” after my last makan outing (Beggars Chicken in Ijok), I was just itching for any reason to go Broga. But before I can get my grubby hands on the fish, I had to actually hike up Broga Hill.. so here I am…

The sun rises really late these days. We only saw the first break of sun rays at 730am.

Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!

So how’s everybody? I have been amusing myself reading tweets & it seem that CNY is what CNY is supposed to be, visiting relatives, indulgence of food, gambling, overdrinking & overall, a MERRY TIME for everyone.

Myself had had the good fortune to enjoy the clear roads in KL & PJ (though I personally find that traffic wasn’t as clear as it used to be during the same period years back) & been going around whizzing past rows & rows of shops tightly shut in SS2, Petaling Street, Jln Alor & Cheras; all for the sake of gleefully gaping at the deserted streets & enjoying the ability to get parking just about anywhere! (When was the last time one gets parking in Telawi Bangsar with one eye shut?)

Anyways, back to food. Other than the F & B outlets in malls, most of my favourite kopitiam haunts are closed, (understandably) during this period. Well, CNY or not, a gourmand has got to eat. And mamak food just doesn’t appeal somehow.

Thank goodness for some Malay friends who made sure I wasn’t having any mediocre grub for my 2nd day CNY dinner. They whisked me off to Sg Buloh (I never been to Sg Buloh before!) & ordered me this.

Restaurant New Formosa, SS2 – Get your Monk Over The Wall for only RM36!


My last visit to New Formosa (read about it HERE –  the suckling pig, the soup, the duck  & the crab steamed rice are my top picks) set the bar sky high & I was looking forward to staple more of their menu.

Then again, more often than not, the key to a good meal is the company 😉

Indeed the woks here wields some serious magic.

How else could one explain the delicious dishes that appeared from the kitchen that night?

One dish that got me hooked that night were the finger licking long ribs. It was absolutely addictive. The marinate thoroughly permeats the meat & the tender texture with the glorious soft fatty layers still got me salivating till today.
