Nam Heong: Sunway Pyramid Opening Feast

RM3 for main courses like prawn noodles, chicken hor fun, and chicken rice; RM2 per basket of dim sum; free egg tarts, tau fu fah and more: Nam Heong is celebrating the launch of its latest outpost in Sunway Pyramid with plenty of exciting offers starting 24 February 2020.

Nam Heong in Sunway Pyramid promises a refreshed look for the brand that includes more vintage elements, notable in its chairs and couches, lamps and lighting, complementing a setting that's filled with nostalgic portraits of Ipoh from the past century. Still, it's a comfortably contemporary space too, with tablet ordering from the table and other sleek, stylish flourishes.

If you're a Nam Heong enthusiast seeking a spectacular bargain, or if you haven't been to Nam Heong in some time, bookmark this new Sunway Pyramid branch for a visit in the coming weeks to check out these following promotions.

Throughout 24 February till 1 March 2020, you can savour a main course at Nam Heong Sunway Pyramid for only RM3. Choose from the familiar favourites like the Nam Heong Chicken Hor Fun, Signature Assam Curry Noodles, Supreme Prawn Noodles, Ipoh Lum Mee, or Signature Roasted Chicken Rice - each bowl offers an authentic taste of Ipoh, bolstered by six decades of Nam Heong's history.

Each sip of the soups proves soulful, with flavours that feel time-honoured, from the mellow sweetness of the hor fun to the reviving tang of the assam curry noodles, the rich brininess of the prawn noodles to the aromatic fragrance of the chicken rice.

The RM3 offer for each main course is available for first 1,000 portions served at Nam Heong Sunway Pyramid starting 24 February, so be sure to head there before the week ends.

The next promotion runs for five days the following week, throughout 2-6 March 2020: RM2 per basket of dim sum, with choices like supreme BBQ pork buns, siew mai, Teochew mai, Ipoh traditional fried fish balls, spare ribs with black bean sauce, chicken feet with black bean spicy sauce, crispy prawn rolls, and crispy prawn dumplings.

Served fresh and steaming-hot, Nam Heong's dim sum strives to do justice to the traditions of Ipoh, where dim sum is revered for morning meals.

Each table is allowed three sets of dim sum at RM2 each, available for first 1,000 portions served per day during 2-6 March 2020.

Be sure to queue punctually for the next promotion, slated for 7, 8, 14 and 15 March: Free egg tarts and chicken sou, at 12pm and 4pm, available for the first 100 customers per session on a first-come, first-served basis.

Both are signature snacks that have long been Nam Heong's cherished staples; the egg tarts are hand-crafted with kampung eggs, with a crisply layered crust, while the chicken sou is stuffed with saucy chicken instead of the conventional pork.

The final promotion is scheduled for 9-13 March 2020: Free red bean dessert soup or Ipoh tau fu fah for customers dining in with a minimum spending of RM15, while stocks last - the ideal way to end a meal at Nam Heong, with irresistibly soothing treats that speak of a generations-old kopitiam heritage.

Many thanks to Nam Heong for this preview of its promotions.

P.S. Of course, Nam Heong's full menu is available at Sunway Pyramid - the President's Toast (RM6.50) is recommended, showcasing Hainanese bread with house-made kaya and premium French butter.

Mr. Dakgalbi Dining @ Sunway Pyramid

By EDKL Writer A.A.

Bringing a fresh take to the Korean spicy stir-fried chicken experience, Mr. Dakgalbi Dining launched this year at Sunway Pyramid in a scenic setting that combines flavourful recipes with personalised service and a bright, leafy view to pair with your meal. It's the ideal restaurant for communal feasts, bringing together families and friends for hot and hearty, seasoned and sumptuous cuisine.

Step into this spacious venue and the team here will promptly take your order, prepare your cutlery and commence the cooking - Dakgalbi sets are the cornerstone of the menu, casting the spotlight on marinated chicken served in a rich sauce unmistakably created with Korean gochujang chilli pepper paste, partnered with sliced potatoes, rice cakes, cabbage, leeks, noodles and a bounty of other ingredients, in princely portions for two to four persons. If you're new to dakgalbi, this place provides the ideal introduction to this popular dish, a staple in Korea for more than five decades.

We sampled one crowd-pleasing Dakgalbi set that's exclusive to Mr. Dakgalbi Dining in Sunway Pyramid - the Cheese Fondue Dakgalbi, with melted cheese to enhance the lusciousness of this concoction. The cheese's creamy savouriness nicely complements the spicy sting of the chilli paste, so you'll enjoy multiple layers of flavour and texture. 

The service team will help cook this for you from start to finish, mixing up the contents of the pot till the food shows off an appetising sheen - it's completely addictive, so most customers will find themselves easily polishing off every spoonful. Everything works in harmony, with the tender chicken promising the protein, the crisp vegetables balancing out for the fibre, and the firm, substantial noodles supplying the base of carbs that bind it all together. Each set costs RM62 for the Medium portion pictured here, and RM80 for a larger serving. 

If you prefer a taste of the ocean, the Seafood Dakgalbi should float your boat, brimming with mussels, shrimp, squid, octopus and bean sprouts (Medium for RM61; Large RM85). Other Dakgalbi sets include the Hot and Spicy Dakgalbi (which we're told packs more than twice the heat of the original recipe), and the Bulgogi Dakgalbi (with chicken prepared bulgogi-style in the manner that evokes barbecues, making it the non-spicy option). 

We enjoyed our Dakgalbi sets with authentic thin handmade Korean noodles (RM7) and Steamed Rice (RM4). Various add-on possibilities are available, including the Cheese Fondue (RM17), as well as Octopus (RM13), Shrimp (RM13), and 200 grams' worth of Dakgalbi chicken (RM17).

Side dishes comprise the likes of Mini Pancakes in two potential flavours, kimchi and octopus, for a fun snack to share; you can have both flavours in one serving if you like (four pancakes for RM4, six for RM6). And if you relish heartwarming soups, sample the Kimchi Soup, slurp-worthy with a tangy kick (RM12).

All customers at Mr. Dakgalbi dining receive unlimited banchan-style servings of kimchi, lettuce, radish and salad; you'll receive a portion of each to start with, and feel free to ask for more whenever you want.

For single-plate meals, Mr. Dakgalbi Dining also offers a variety of pan-fried rice, targeting customers who want their own individual meals. These include Chicken Bulgogi Fried Rice, Cheese Fried Rice, and Beef Fried Rice, priced from RM15 to RM17, with the unlimited side dishes too.

In terms of beverages, the thirst-quenching Korean Citron Honey Tea (RM6) is a new entry to Mr. Dakgalbi's repertoire; for larger groups, order a jug of Iced Lemon Tea (RM12).

Many thanks to Mr. Dakgalbi Dining for having us here.
