Restoran Ayam Penyet-AP @ Dataran Mentari, PJ

It has been awhile that I have not been blogging for no specific reason, just wanna take a break. From now onwards, I hope to be back and start posting with 1-2 posts a week.

Been a food lovers, my first post after so long break is about food, Indonesia foods but available locally. It is called AYAM PENYET - this Blazing Hot, Smashed, Crispy Fried Chicken. This restuarant started with its 1st outlet at SS15 Subang Jaya in November 2008 and has now another two outlets at Dataran Mentari and Bangi.

I read some good reviews about them and decided today to dropped by at their new Sunway Mentari outlet to try their signature Ayam Penyet. Ayam Penyet is a tradfitional cuisine originated from Surabaya.

My friend who joined me for lunch today.

Simple and cosy decor with air-condition dining area and non-air cond smoking area.

Prawn Keropok for sale @ RM3.00/plastic bag.

We were wrongly served (which is ordered by another table) with plain ice water which is priced at RM0.30/cup. We thought it was complimentary when served.

This is their famous Ayam Penyet @ RM7.00 per set. Rice is charged seperately @ RM1.20/plate.

Ayam Penyet is a popular Indonesia chicken dish where the chicken is specially marinated various spice and herbs. The meat is then smashed with a wooden hammer and deep fried until golden light brown. One of unique feature in preparing this funny name dish is the art of frying whereby it is crspy from the outside and juicy inside. There are many other different version of like Empal Penyet (Smashed Beef), Lele Penyet (Ikan Keli and fried Cat Fish) and many others selection as shown on their menu.

The chiili really blazing hot for me. For those who love it HOT, you will love it.

We ordered Chendol for our drink. It is served a little diffrently as the chendol is mixed with some cut Chempedak and cude ice instead of the shave ice. It is better with shave ice.

Banyak Sedap ; Very delicious in Bahasa Malaysia as we clean up the dish except for the chilly which is too spicy for both of us.

What is recession?

With the present worsening world economic situation, the world "recession" is been mentioned very often this days. My friend send me this story about recession. Something to ponder!

This Story is about a man who once upon a time was selling Hotdogs by the roadside.
He was illiterate, so he never read newspapers. He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio. His eyes were weak, so he never watched television. But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs. He was smart enough to offer some attractive schemes to increase his sales.

His sales and profit went up. He ordered more a more raw material and buns and use to sale more. He recruited few more supporting staff to serve more customers. He started offering home deliveries. Eventually he got himself a bigger and better stove. As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated from College, joined his father.

Then something strange happened. The son asked, "Dad, aren't you aware of the great recession that is coming our way?" The father replied, "No, but tell me about it." The son said, "The international situation is terrible. The domestic situation is even worse. We should be prepared for the coming bad times." The man thought that since his son had been to college, read the papers, listened to the radio and watched TV. He ought to know and his advice should not be taken lightly.
So the next day onwards, the father cut down his raw material order and buns, took down the colorful signboard, removed all the special schemes he was offering to the customers and was no longer as enthusiastic. He reduced his staff strength by giving layoffs. Very soon, fewer and fewer people bothered to stop at his hotdog stand. And his sales started coming down rapidly, same is the profit. The father said to his son, "Son, you were right". "We are in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am glad you warned me ahead of time."

Moral of The Story:
It's all in your MIND! And we actually FUEL this recession much more than we think we do!!!!!!!!!! !!

What can we take away from this story??
1. How many times we confuse intelligence with good judgment?
2. Choose your advisers carefully but use your own judgment
3. A person or an organization will survive forever, if they have the 5 Cs
* Character
*Commitment
* Conviction
* Courtesy
* Courage

The tragedy today is that there are many walking encyclopedias that are living failures.
The More practical and appropriate views on this economic recession is:
"This is the time to reunite together for any small or a big organization, this is the time to motivate and retain people which are the biggest asset, this is the time to show more commitments to the customers, this is the time to show values of our company to the world ".
