Madam Kwan's - Truly Malaysian Cuisine

Been in the industry for many years and also one of the pioneers of modern cafes; even though with current many other's new cafes & restaurants around, still Madam Kwan's still standing strong among all.

Known for its Nasi Lemak and fried chicken which I never fancy about. Frankly speaking, it has been years since I last visited them. So many years back, only recently was there for lunch with my boss and colleagues. It's my colleague's birthday and we had lunch there.

Seem like this time round I am going crazy for their Banana Fritters with ice-cream. Best of the best banana fritters. They uses very much ripe bananas. That I love the most and none of the places uses such ripe enough bananas for fritters- Sweet & Soft. Not even I am able to find at any cafes or hawkers. This is something I am thinking about and wanted to be back for more.

Some other hot dishes which they are famous of will be Nasi Bojari which comes with the tri-coloured rice, assam prawns, shredded beef redang and a huge chicken drumstick. The drumstick was fried to a nice crisp on the skin but still tender and juicy inside. While the assam prawn was lip smacking, the shredded beef redang was missing that wholesome chunky enjoyment.

I enjoyed the thick slab of fish paste which was not mushy. Chunks of fish meat lends a delectable bite to the otak otak which was also not too spicy.

Although the portion served at Madam Kwan is bigger in portion compare to what you can get at hawker, I still cannot get over that fact that it is so pricey for hawker fare. Yes it comes with better quality ingredients and air conditioned dining environment but hawker food are meant to be affordable.
