asam pedas power

one fine Friday afternoon, I called nana out to lunch...  oh i'm gonna cut the crap. there's this shabby cafe that sells the softest sugar coated donuts, and really good asam pedas. we've been there a few times, and the asam pedas set seems to be a favorite among its regulars.

the restaurant is Ju's Cafe and Cake House. It's located near Mydin Kota Seriemas. at the junction in front of Mydin and the entrance to Kota Seriemas, turn left. There's a pink single storey building on the left about 100 meters from Mydin. there's no allocated parking lot, but feel free to find your own near the roadside.

the cafe
if you think that it's hot inside the cafe.. well you're wrong. it's really cool and airy inside. they can seat at most maybe around 20-25 people. since there aren't many waiters/waitresses you'd really have to wait for them to come to you. but then i only go there on Friday. hehe :) 

ok.. so on the menu there's chicken rice, chicken porridge, asam pedas (set), curry noodles. there are two shop lots in this building. one is the cafe itself, and the other is a cake house. but since the cake house is like hidup segan mati tak mau they put the donuts outside at the cafe. hehe.. but the donuts is soo good. it's so soft and fluffly. it's the best donut ever. 

just looking at it makes my mouth waters hehe :) yummy

the asam pedas set consists of a plate of rice with salted fish and some ulam and a serving of asam pedas. the fish you can usually choose between tenggiri, kembung and pari. i normally take kembung. i don't eat pari. hehe :) so that plate costs like RM8.50.


kuah is so good. the sambal belacan is quite pedas tho.. so careful :)
the curry noodles is not bad either. plenty of isi and the curry has nice consistency. not too thick.. not too thin.. what's weird is that they serve chicken uncut and still with the bone. kinda hard to eat heheeh.. but i like it that they have plenty of tofu and fish cakes and such... lovely.

curry noodles... gotta have it 
our favorite drink from this cafe would have to be apple asam boi. it's just perfect for a hot day.. :) but then that's the only drink i ever ordered from this cafe pun kekeke.. they also have lei chi kang. it looks really good.. but haven't tried. maybe next time i'm there ;) 

quench your thirst
so a lunch like this.. for two including the donuts for desserts hehe.. would typically cost us about 20 bucks. which is not bad.. considering the portion is quite big and they taste really good :)

i don't have the address.. but it's not hard to find. if can't find it, there are a few restaurants/cafe nearby hehe ;)
