One of our favorite place in KL, Pepper lunch. It is a Japanese hot plate restaurant and you get to cook your food at your hot plate. Meaning the food served is raw but the plate is really really hot. So beware when it is served. 

Quote from their site, http://www.pepperlunch.com.my/:

Designed and patented in Japan, the unique cast iron plate is an integral part of Pepper Lunch's success. Thought a special electromagnetic cooker, the iron plate can heat up to 260 degree in 70 sec and remain hot at about 80 degree for more then 20 min. Meat grilled at this ideal hight temperature, remains tender and juicy and the plate retains heat and keeps the food deliciously warm.

Without further ado let see some real food :)

Remember this logo when you crave for some delicious steak. 

Ambient at Pepper Lunch at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.

We ordered the set which add another RM4.80 for drink and salad.

Simple salad but it was really good although the amount had size down compare to last time. It came with seaweed, salad, carrot, corn, chicken and thousand island sauce. 

Our Rib eyes steak (RM36.80) but we prefer pepper steak (RM29.80) which is cheaper and less fat and no cartilage. It came with corn, long bean and mach potato. We asked to change the potato to some vege but the receptionist rejected us. WTF! We don't want so much carbo also can't ... 

Anyway you can cook your steak till the degree you like. We made it medium raw as Cyn don't like bloody.

End up J have to finish this alone. 

Love the honey brown sauce (Amakuchi) very much, very peppery, sweet, honeyish and super flavorful. If you don't like sweet then you will definately like the salty, garlicky soy sauce (Karakuchi).

This place was introduced by my friend, Ant when i told her that i used to go for chicken rice while i am in Ipoh. She told me i should pay this place a visit. As it is a very popurlar makan place. So during the short trip i decided to pay them a visit.

The name of the place described why it is called under big tree. It is actually a hawker place where Yong tau fu seem to be very very famous. See it to believe it. This is actually the old location, they had a nicer environment stall and much more hygiene just next door. They were the same owner. I was told that here is their fong sui place even thought they opened another new place they maintain this area.

The food price is very reasonable. I would like to say super cheap compare to Penang. 

All the people is crawling around the Yong Tau Fu stall. 

It was the first time we went there so we had no idea how to order. We just simply choose some of the items and give to the gal in charge. She never ask me what soup i wanted also. So it came with clean soup. Later i was told that i must try their laksa soup which is very delicious. Anyway we were in rush to KL during the drop by lunch, so i ask the gal how long i needed to wait. She reply me saying not sure but needed to wait. I cal my bowl was at row number 5 half n hour ago, move to row 2. So i guess it was fast because they just put in the soup for you without further cooking require. 

Beverage served here was good, beside that the lady boss was pretty too :) We waited for a while that no one asked us for drink so i self serviced. 

Siting in front the satay lady which was very friendly. We chit chat while we were waiting for the food to come. She told me that during Sunday business are the peak. She was able to sell 2000++ satay per day. I didn't ordered the satay because we were fulled. Anyway the smell from the satay were good :) She was selling chicken, pork and intestine satay. Will try out the next round i promised her :) 

The ambient was so cozy during the hot afternoon. 

Love those old chair. Heh focus on the chair not the sexy legs ok!!!

My yummylicious drink, RM3.50 for the green bean + red bean blend. RM1.50 for the barley. The Green bean  + Red bean blend were so delicious will definitely go for it again :)

Finally our food came, all the items were good. Will come over to try out the laksa soup next time. Tips to get faster is don't order the noodle, after selecting the fried thingie ask for soup and self service. You can get it in 15min, where else you will have to wait for hour for them to deliver to you.

Remember to park inside their car park, it is FREE. Don't park next door car park as they will charge you RM3.
