Went to Hyo-Sun Korean Fried Chicken which located on the 1st Floor, The Curve, Mutiara Damansara to tried out the various taste of homemade fried chicken. If you're coming up the escalator from TGIF, Hyo-Sun is immediately to the left upon reaching the top of the escalator.

The unique point and what I love to dine-in here is because all dishes are cooked upon ordered and it is not our average fast-food style Korean Restaurants that seems to be the norm of the day. You'll be served with fresh and hot food Korean Fried Chicken. Their signature fried chicken flavours are the Honey Fried Chicken, Spicy and Crispy flavours.

Honey Fried Chicken

Crispy Fried Chicken

Spicy Fried Chicken

I like the honey flavour that full with sweetness, the crispy flavour that gave me an extra crunch and the spicy flavour that really hot. All these flavours are suitable for adults and children. If you're spicy food lovers, then you should try out the spicy flavour. If not, don't think you able to take the challenge to accept the spiciness of the fried chicken.

Fried Salted Squid

Fried Chicken Bites

Besides their specialty fried chicken, Hyo-Sun also offered range of side dishes that are popular in the Korean street food culture, which is the Korean Pancake, Fried Dumplings, Fried Salted Squid, Fried Chicken Bites, Crispy Fried Chicken Bites and many more.

Steamboat Package at AK Noodles House

Last Wednesday night, my parents brought me to AK Noodles House at Tropicana City Mall for a steamboat. As we know that AK Noodles House is famous with its high quality ingredients on its fish products, I first had my fish ball noodles soup last month and love the freshness of the fish balls inside. This round, I went there again to try out for the Special Steamboat Package that are available for take-away only.

Before I start my food review, let me tell you some of the history of AK Noodles House so that we are more aware on how and where the products came from. Mommy said Ah Koong Restaurant started in 1987 by Mr Tan Ooi Koong in serving the most authentic fish balls. Mr Tan had continued the philosophy of his father to retain the recipe of making authentic fish balls only from fresh Wolf-herring fish (or known as Ikan Parang) and Yellowtail fish. It first opened at Johor Bahru with just 5 tables and now AK Noodles House has expanded to 6 outlets mainly in Johor Bahru, Kuala Lumpur and Selangor with over hundreds of workers. At here, you can visit their outlets at 1 Utama Shopping Centre, Tropicana City Mall, Main Place USJ 21, Evolve Concept Mall and DC Mall.

Using the best selected ingredients, AK Noodles' fish stuffs are daily made under strict hygienic condition before sent to the respective outlets in the shortest time to ensure we still get the taste of the prime top quality of fishy stuffs. Fish balls are 1 of the ingredient in the Steamboat package that I love most because they are authentic and purely made from fresh sea Wolf-herring fish, no preservatives and no boric acid added and it is in vacuum packaging. It is also prepared by combining traditional handmade and modern machine-made technique to create extremely smooth and springy texture. 

Besides the steamed fish balls, they had fried fish balls and five spices (Ngoh Hiang) as above. You got to try this out as it is delicious and fresh. Fresh prawns are must to have for steamboat. The prawns given were large and juicy.

We were served with fresh Mackerel Fish too. For fish lovers like my Daddy, he finish all the fish fillets up in just seconds. He likes the taste and the sweetness of the meat. Fish is a very healthy dish too to provide us some proteins, Vitamin D and Omega 3.

Even though I don't like to eat vegetables but the freshness of the Vege Ball, makes it delicious and I don't even knew that I am eating vegetables instead. A good way to help me eating some vegetables without force for health.

The next ingredients at AK Noodles House's Special Steamboat package include my Mom's favourite Yong Tau Foo. Each pieces were quite large and were generously stuffed with AK fish paste. My Mom enjoyed her favourite Chilies, Brinjals, Ladies Finger, Bitter Melons and Tau Foo.

Fish maws (Chinese known as Fa Kau) is the commercial term for the dried bladders of large fish like croaker and sturgeon. It has no fishy taste and absorbs the flavors of the soup. For Chinese, it is considered as one of the big four delicacies of the sea. It is a good source of collagen and helps in blood circulation. Best to eat with soup or steamboat. 

Bean curd skin, vege roll, dumplings, egg, Vit's noodles and vegetables were included in the package. I love to eat the noodles with eggs and my favourite foo chok. Simple and nice.

And my dining table was full of Steamboat fresh ingredients from AK Noodles House. This big portion is for 5 persons which priced at only RM158.90 nett. If you had a bigger family, then you can opt for 8 persons food which priced at RM254.30 nett. 

For take-away, do get it from their outlets at Tropicana City Mall, City Square Johor Bahru, One Utama Shopping Centre, Main Place USJ 21 Subang Jaya, Evolve Concept Mall and DC Mall. AK Noodles House website is at www.aknoodles.com.my and facebook page at www.facebook.com/AKNoodlesHouse.Official. 

I enjoyed eating AK Noodles Steamboat because the ingredients used indeed very fresh and the most important is, my favourite fish balls are there. The soup is make from the combination of chicken bone and anchovies which are indeed sweet with yummylicious taste. It is one of the best Steamboat meal that I had ate and will definitely recommend all my readers to take-away the Steamboat Special package by AK Noodles House. 

Fox Movies Awesome Weekend at Setia City Park

Last weekend, Mommy brought me and my siblings to have fun at Fox Movies Awesome Weekend at Setia City Park. Organised by Fox Movies Premium with its partners, Setia Citizen, Dutch Lady, Sharp, Kinder Schoko-Bons, Renault and Astro, there are lots of exciting activities such as Bungee Run, Obstacle Course, Character Face Painting, Giant Bubbles, Movie Photo Booth, Dutch Lady Activation Zone, Kinder Schoko-Bons Crispy Booth, Kinder Catapult Craze Game and Kinder Kick-In Challenge.

We reached at 5 p.m. on Saturday and the first booth that I went is to have my favourite milk, Dutch Lady so that I am more energetic to explore more games at each booth. For every purchase of RM10, I got to play the basket ball at the Dutch Lady Activation Zone. 

After that, I went to Kinder Schoko-Bons booth to try out the new Kinder Schoko-Bons Crispy and I love the taste so much. There are shooting for Angry Bird and also a football game to win a pencil box with pencil, rubber and ruler. I won some and can use it when school re-open.

I enjoyed myself with the Giant Bubbles, Bungee Run and Obstacle Course too. It was indeed fun even though a bit tiring and a bit of drizzling too. My siblings do enjoyed it too. The field was filled with lots of families with small kids and for couples too. There are food trucks too and their burger was the best. I had it for my dinner.

At 7.00 p.m., Mommy had redeemed the Fox Movie Premium comfortable soft seat and goodie bag and we proceed to VIP area to have a comfortable seat. By that time, the drizzling had stopped and the weather is cooling for us to enjoyed my favourite cartoon, Rio under the Star at 7.45 pm. There are some bean bags for us to sit too. The screen was large with a great the sound system. Some families brought their own mat and just put at the field to have a great picnic times with their families and friends. 

Through out the event, there are some prizes to be win too through question and answer. I did answer a question of the emcee when he ask me my favourite game. I told him I love to play badmintion and he called me as Dato' Lee Chong Wei's junior. Dato' indeed is my Superhero and I really hope that I can become like him when I grow up. To be a professional badminton player. I won some movie merchandise sponsored by Fox Movies Premium.

At 9.30 pm, lucky draw started and the winner brought home a Sharp Aquos 60" inch tv. A father with his 2 sons had won the prize. Congrats to him for being so lucky. I do wish that Daddy and Mommy could bring it home instead but guess, luck is not with us on that day.

After the lucky draw session, Mommy said it is too late already and we need to make our journey home. Even though I had wanted to watch Avatar but Mommy said Daddy is too tired already and the next day, we need to wake-up early to Kidzania. Thanks to Fox Movies Premium and all its partners for having us there. Me and siblings had so much fun on that day. Hope I can join their next event soon.
