My Cookbook Cafe, Sunway Giza

I had my 2011 birthday luncheon at My Cookbook which is a trendy modern Malaysian restaurant that sets to redefine the Malaysian food culture.

My Cookbook stands like the brightest constellation amongst the stars, the logo calls out to many with its striking pink, and the patio furniture is like no other on the premise. That’s because most of the furniture used at My Cookbook are designer pieces, hence the quality in seen depicted by its minimalist style.

While the interior has already made you feel like a celebrity, the concept of the food served is definitely thought way outside the box. They sure seem to love their eggs; one of the dishes is the Smoked Omega Eggs with Fish Roe and Shimeji Mushrooms. Similar to the eggs often served with Japanese ramen, pop the whole spoonful of half an egg into your mouth and its soft gooey texture slides down the throat just like fresh oysters. The Black-Eyed Pea Cake with Salted Egg Yolk and Chili reminded me of the ones sold at morning markets, but richer in taste and prettier in presentation.

The signature dish is perhaps the MY Crispy Chicken Roll and Fragrant Rice served with Double Boiled Chicken Broth, where both chicken and rice has been moulded into cylinder shapes and then cut. So instead of the conventional plate filled with a mountain of rice and boned-chicken, the dish is readily bite sized that is bursting with flavor. Where else can one find contemporary Chinese fare served fashionably in a swanky venue?
