Date: 2nd July 2010
Venue: Genting Strawberry Leisure Farm
Country: Malaysia
Cuisine: Asian
Wanting to do something different other than spending our time in the casinos and spare our weak hearts from the thrill rides in the theme park, we decided to visit the strawberry farm at Gohtong Jaya for some fresh air.
Fresh Strawberry (RM15.00 / US$4.70)
What is a visit to the strawberry farm without buying some fresh strawberries? This box of pre-packed fresh strawberries is selling at RM15 for 250g. Though it might be slightly costly, but you get to taste the ultimate freshness and sweetness of the freshly pluck strawberries. The farm also offers the option of self-pick strawberry at RM8 per 100g, which will be a good experience for the young children.

Nasi Goreng Kampung (RM6.50 / US$2.05)
We ordered 1 portion of the fried rice to share, as we are still feeling bloated from our breakfast and free our stomach space for more food. This portion of slightly spicy fried rice with ikan bilis was just nice to feed the both of us, leaving us enough stomach space for the chicken wings.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strawberry Chicken Wings (RM9.80 / US$3.05)
New on the menu, we decided to give this exotic combination a try. The chicken wings are first deep-fried and then coated with strawberry glaze that give the chicken wings a shiny appearance. The overall taste of the chicken wings is surprisingly good as seasoning of the chicken wings is well done and the strawberry glaze is not too sickeningly sweet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strawberry Juice (RM7.90 / US$2.50)
Mum ordered Strawberry Juice but it turns out more like Strawberry Ice Blended rather than Strawberry Juice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strawberry Milk Tea (RM4.50 / US$1.40)
Shin ordered Strawberry Milk Tea and concluded that the strawberry taste is more evident when the drink is cooled so it might be a better choice to have it cold.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Side-note: The strawberry milk tea is made from the instant strawberry milk tea powder that is sold at the farm. So if you like the taste of this drink, you can buy and make it at home. There is also strawberry milk coffee if you are a coffee lover.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Total Cost of Meal (2 Adults) = RM 28.70 / US$9.00
Rating = 4/5
Thumbs Up: Special strawberry beverages (see order slip) and dishes not commonly found elsewhere
