Well, in case if you don't understand the Cantonese phrase above, it simply means once you find a good restaurant to dine in, you are guaranteed to find satisfying and filling food. A week after our exploits at Sushi King, we tried once again to get a place at Kim Gary, and to our utmost surprise, we SUCCEEDED! (Baby Fist pump!)
In case you are not well acquainted with its history, Kim Gary is a famous restaurant outlet from Hong Kong. The first Kim Gary opened in 1992 at Sham Shui Po Tong Mei Road, Hong Kong. Through business expansion, the restaurant outlet reached the shores of Malaysia, and finally to Sunway Pyramid!
Kim Gary is a "chan teng" (Chinese style restaurant) that attempts to combine Western and Eastern cuisines together. I must say that the fusion works perfectly well as Kim Gary has woo many Malaysians up till now. However, it is highly recommended that you should at least able to speak simple Mandarin or Cantonese in order not to cause any unwanted confusion!
On the 20 of April (Friday), all six us of us were at the restaurant. Though the restaurant looked crowded, we were still able to acquire a table with a few chairs and a comfortable couch. The waitress was friendly and immediately handed us the menus. Looking around, we could see that most of the patrons then were college students since it was a weekday. After deciding, we took down our orders on the small piece of paper provided. Generally, Kim Gary had a good response time, which was around 5 to 10 minutes.
Now, for the food:
Fish fillet with sweet corn cream sauce |
Wrapped fish in egg with Shanghai style vegetable rice |
Nissin soup noodles with fried egg & luncheon meat |
Supreme beef curry baked with Swiss cheese and Spaghetti |
Shredded pork and fried egg with Chinese Mushroom rice |
Hot & spicy soup noodles with chicken wings in "Typhoon Shelter" style |
In hindsight, some of the dishes worth mentioning are the" Hot & spicy soup noodles with chicken wings in Typhoon Shelter style", "Supreme beef curry baked with Swiss cheese" and "Fish fillet with sweet corn cream sauce".
The first dish was noted for its particularly spicy soup which Fu Hui happened to compared to her Sichuanese home dishes.( Fu Hui is from China, in case you don't know =P) The noodles' soup was served in abundance, much to her delight. Besides that, the springy noodles served to whet her appetite which was satisfied by the addition of some chicken wings.
It is amazing that Kim Gary has succeeded with its own brand of "East meets West" type of fusion cuisines and demonstrates it in the second and third dishes mentioned earlier. For example, vegetables used in typical Chinese dishes such as Cauliflower and Peas managed to blend in well with the beef curry sauce that was served along with the Spaghetti.
This restaurant also serves cold and hot beverages. Among the drinks ordered that day were: Tea in HK style, Milo, Fresh Lemon Tea and Mango with coconut milky juice.
Kim Gary also has various promotions offered from time to time. So, if you don't mind experimenting a little, it would not hurt to consider their food offers which lasts over a certain period.
Our verdict? Kim Gary offers decent food for a reasonable sum of money. Our advice is to prepare a budget between RM10-RM25. As always, the better dishes require you to fork out more money!
Kim Gary is located at Oasis Boulevard, the ground floor of Sunway Pyramid's old wing.(OB2.G.U3) An easy way to the Oasis Boulevard is by walking through the Parkson Departmental Store on the ground floor till you reach the end of the store. From there, there will be several shops on your left and right. Kim Gary will be located at the furthermost right.
Happy Dining!:)
