Stadt German Bistro & Cuisine @ Puchong

It's best not to disturb K during the first 3 months of the year as that is the busiest time in school with new same old students' and teachers' problems to deal with. After months of hiatus, we were both determined to meet up and K was really in need of some fattening up..

Have heard some rave reviews about this restaurant which offers cheap but good German food. I don't know if it's the rain and cool weather but the restaurant looked very inviting with its cosy and intimate ambience. And a very cute waiter.



The beer looks so darn right tempting





Mixed platter of German sausages




German salad

Not much different from any other normal salad but the vegetables were very fresh, sweet and crunchy. The bits of deep fried pork gave an extra kick to the dish.

THE honey-glazed pig knuckle

 The meat managed to retain its moisture unlike some dry ones which I had sampled previously. We couldn't finished and had to take away the remaining knuckle which I had it boiled into 2 big bowls of delicous soup. No extra seasoning required, I swear !


Apple strudel

Pretty decent dessert but nothing special though I couldn't help licking the entire jam off the plate.

Starry, starry night..

What better way to end a fruitful trip (shopping, that is) to Bangkok than to enjoy sumptuous good food with a bird's eye view of the city itself at night. We decided to head to the Saffron Restaurant at Banyan Tree Hotel.

We opted for the cosy comfort of the indoor restaurant as the outdoor was extremely windy and would you believe it, cold !! Food prices are a few times higher than what you would get from an average restaurant in the city, so we only ordered a few dishes.. Well, we planned to head for some shopping and food at the night market anyway..

The appetisers

 The best way to sample everything is to order this platter.


Rice crackers and sauce

 Yummy, crunchy starter. Love the sauce.


Dessert- water chestnut wrapped with glutinous rice coconut syrup

Tastier than those sold outside. The perfect combo of the crunchy chestnut and its springy wrapping. 

Lemon grass ice-cream

Tasted a bit like vanilla ice-cream with a hint of lemon grass flavour.

Psst.... the restaurant offers a wide selection of rice (i.e glutinous, fragrant, brown, etc) and they are free-flow.. So even though we didn't order that many dishes, we were quite full..


The night view

 We took this night view from the Saffron Restaurant but a better way to enjoy the night view without burning a hole in your pocket is to simply have drink at Pier 39 and just soak into the gorgeous, gorgeous night view..

Crabs, crabs and more crabs !

Fatty Crab Seafood Restaurant needs no introduction. The long queue even on weekdays says it all. The restaurant is famous for its chilly crabs. The gravy is hot, sweet and sourish and goes well with toasted bread.

The restaurant offers few and simple dishes. Most diners would go with the crabs, chicken wings, fried rice, toasted bread and century eggs. Though nothing special, the crabs are pretty addictive especially the gravy. I can scrapped off the gravy from the plate with a few pieces of toasts.



The famous crabs



What I do like to introduce are the yummy durians from Kampar sold by the uncle with a lorry from the road across the restaurant. Though a bit pricey, the durians are gobsmacked delicious, sweet with a hint of bitterness just like the way I like it.

What better way to finish off the dinner with a plate of yummy durians..
