Sakura Kristal @ Setia City Mall

Lately I have been hanging out with my friend in Setia City Mall and I found one eating place which is quite good...Sakura Kristal...

Initially I thought they serve Japanese food as the word sakura have mistakenly been intepreted as Japanese to me. However I was shock that they serve variety fusion food from Chinese to perakanan and even western.

I have been hanging out there for twice and they are doing a 50% discount on some of their food in conjunction with their opening in Setia City Mall.

On my firs visit, we order the Signature Peranakan Seafood Curry, Bangkok 'Khaw Pat'and Mango Chicken.

Our drink - Barley Lime, Ribena Fizzy and Sirap Bandung.


The Signature Peranakan Seafood Curry taste really good on our first visit. The aroma is so good and tempting that we finish all the gravy. It goes well with rice and the seafood is fresh. Serving is also huge enough for sharing.



The Thai Fried Rice or they call it Bangkok Khaw Pat is really value for money consider we enjoy 50% off from the original price of RM 9. You hardly get a plate of fried rice outside that cost less than RM 5 nowadays. Not to forget the generous portion and fresh prawn cook to perfection. Lot of 'wok hei' too.


The mango chicken also taste good. Sweet and sour in taste serve with chuncky lean chicken meat, this portion is for those who like healthy food for a twist. I would prefer more sauce for the chicken. Anyway it taste good overall.


On my second visit, I have a family dinner with my mom and dad as well as my sister. We order almost the same food as I am craving for the Signature Peranakan Seafood and Mango Chicken. As my mom like bringal, I order Uncle Bringal serve with their special sauce and My sister opt for Indonesia treasure.

The uncle Bringal (sorry for the bad picture) was good. The bringal is fried to perfection with the special sauce. In deed very special and nice. No complaint from my mom who is very fussy on food.


The Indonesia treasure is fried rice serve with fried chicken and keropok. Another good serving but I dont really taste this much as I am busy with my curry.


I will for sure go back again for more curry next round.....I get to know they have few other branch so you guys can try it out. The food is nice and is reasonably priced.

3 Colour Tea & 3 Colour Coffee

If my memory serve me right, 3 Colour Tea is Sabah specialty and 3 Colour Coffee is Sarawak specialty. I got opportunity to drink them during my audit assignment to Sabah and Sarawak. The taste is so different from normal tea and coffee, not only tasty, but rich in aroma.

Recently, I discover a shop in Cahaya that sell these two refreshing drinks, i.e. Medan Selera Cahaya 218. This "shop" is a chinese food court not far from Cahaya LRT station. They actually get this product from a distributor A One. So I think there are many other shops start selling these drinks too.

Let's not waste time, here is the legendary 3 colour tea:


As you can see from the picture, the top layer is tea, which is the main part of the drink, then the middle yellowish colour is condensate milk, and finally the bottom part is the key to the whole thing - coconut sugar. So, instead of normal sugar or milk, this drink use coconut sugar. However, the authentic 3 colour tea added wheat grass juice as well. The taste is normal tea, but it come with strong aroma of wheat grass and coconut. It's hard to describe or imagine the taste, so why not take it a try???

The next one would be 3 colour coffee:


What's the different? Of cause, the differences other than the name, the taste is different too. For me, 3 colour coffee taste is not as good as 3 colour tea. The authentic 3 colour coffee at Sarawak is very nice, I can still remember the aroma very well. Oh ya, at Sarawak, they not call it 3 colour coffee, they call it Coffee Special. You can almost drink it in any shops there.

This is a truth fusion of local and western, doesn't it? Both tea and coffee are brought to Malaysia under British command. Now this recipe is mix with our very own local coconut sugar. I call this an international sign of drink. hahaha...

If you wanna try it at Medan Selera Cahaya 218, one glass of 3 colour coffee or 3 colour tea is only RM2.20. Besides a nice drink, there are many delicious delicacy here as well, which I will post them soon.

Here my verdict:
3 colour tea
(colour = 9, taste = 9, aroma = 8, texture = 9, environment = 7)
TOTAL = 8.4 / 10.0

3 colour coffee
(colour = 8.5, taste = 8.5, aroma = 8, texture = 8.5, environment = 7)
TOTAL = 8.1 / 10.0
