32 Eat Out : Restoran Fatt Fatt Fatt - Eat And Prosper

It's Fatt Fatt Fatt, not fat fat fat but I think that's debatable. A number of Chinese eateries in Malaysia include the word fatt or 8 into the restaurant name because it means prosperity. At the rate I'm enjoying my food, prosperity is hitting me smack in the waistline ..now lack of. The restaurants? They prosper pocket-wise. Fatt fatt them, fat fat me .. haha!

My Malaysia Day started out with brunch at Restoran Fatt Fatt Fatt in Taman Tun - opposite Maybank. Hubs and I love coming here for the chicken rice. The seller is a nice chap who is passionate about what he does. He doesn't hesitate to ask us to try out his new creations or help out fellow friends in the food business even if he is the busiest man! It's not easy waking up in the wee hours of the morning to prepare food for the brunch crowd. I should know - I'm exhausted after organising a party for just twenty!

This is the chicken rice we ordered that day and the one below, the week before.

Steamed, roasted and with some char siew - all delicious.

The spicy squid dish at the Nasi Lemak stall had us drooling so we asked for a plate of that too.

We finished our meal with two pieces of durian tarts for dessert - something that was introduced to us weeks earlier which was made by a friend of the nice chap. It is yummy stuff. Not overpowering at all - light, creamy and can I say duriany?

And finally, some pictures of the place - a little old, but we like coming here because of the people.

I am always fond of eating in places where there is this feeling of warmth.

  2. Wow, the chicken rice looks really good! :) I've been to Malaysia back in 2007, I was just in 6th grade back then. I remember how we used to eat in the streets, and I really love the grilled fish! I hope I could visit Malaysia again <3

    Hope to hear from you soon!

    Love, Airish
