Yu Yuan Bao Restaurant at Taman Permas Jaya

Been noticed the shop open quite some times ago but....never notice it's a Taiwan Food Restaurant, I thought of some shop selling some other thing because of the creative signage decoration.

The interior design of the restaurant

The interior design is good and different from the local typical restaurant. The Boss took our order personally in a very polite way! I'm impressed! He introduced many dishes they have and he said most of it only sell in this shop, that means you won't taste it else where! Really??

Our order :
1) The Taiwanese Fried rice
2) The Unique BBQ Pork Rice
3) Minced Pork noodle
4) Peppercorn noodle
5) Lion Head (Side dish)

The BBQ Pork Rice

Surprisingly, the BBQ pork is not in Red colour like what we usually eat locally. And the rice serve in half wet. But the taste.....GOOD!

Minced Pork Noodle

The special was the homemade noodle, it's "Q" when you bite on it! I have never taste this kind of noodle before even in Taipei!
Overall - Perfect! You might taste bit salty, but for me....it's just nice!

The Hot Spicy Peppercorn Noodle

It was Hot & Spicy with Peppercorn, again the homemade noodle was the Best!

The Lion Head - very special name

I wonder what is 'Lion Head', it's actually minced pork ball! It serve with some vegetables and...yes! It was delicious!

I forgot to take the fried rice picture, and it's good too! They also serve special homemade drinks, too bad I forgot to snap the pictures of it!
The restaurant serve many type of Beef with noodle and rice, you will have various of choices if you love beef. And most of foods serve here are not in big portion.

The damage : MYR45.00 (for 4 adults and 1 kid) included drinks.

I rated : 4.5/5 (Included the interior design)
It's worth visit it again!
