Restaurant! Every Bite Makes You Want to Scream 😋

Rarely do you find salted egg dishes in halal restaurants—they’ve always felt like a “Chinese restaurant specialty” to me. That is, until I sat down at Jibril’s Publika branch and got proven wrong: turns out, halal spots can make salted egg dishes so good, you’ll want to lick the plate! From salted egg chicken chop pasta to fried banana with ice cream, every dish hides a surprise—no wonder all four branches are always packed. 🍝 Salted Egg Chicken Chop Pasta: A Wild Collision of Spicy and Savory 🌶️ The aroma hit me as soon as it arrived: pasta coated in golden salted egg sauce, thick enough to cling to every strand, sprinkled with bright red chili flakes and green scallions. Just looking at it made my mouth water. The first bite was a revelation! The salted egg flavor was rich, like eating runny egg yolk, but never cloying. Mixed with a hint of spice, my taste buds felt like they were doing a tap dance. The chicken chop was a bonus—crunchy exterior giving way to juicy, tender meat. Dipped in the sauce, it was so good I wanted to gnaw on the plate. My friend ate while saying, “This is a halal restaurant? It’s better than many Chinese spots!”💯 🦪 Butter Clams: Mantou Dipped in Sauce Is the Soul! I thought the salted egg pasta was unbeatable, but the butter clams stole the spotlight: plump clams swimming in creamy sauce, garlicky with a touch of butter sweetness, so fresh you could drink the broth. The best part? The little mantou (steamed buns)—tear off a piece, soak up the sauce, and the soft bun absorbs all the and seafood freshness. One bite, and satisfaction hit max. My friend said, “This sauce would make even taste good!” And they weren’t lying🤤 🍅 Seafood Pasta: So Loaded It Feels Like a “Seafood Feast” The tomato seafood pasta was a “safe choice,” but the portion shocked me: prawns, squid, and mussels piled high, every bite full of chewy seafood. The tomato sauce was thick, tangy with a hint of sweetness, coating the pasta smoothly. It’s “simple but hearty” delicious. My non-spicy-loving friend wolfed it down, saying “half a bowl fills you up”—and sure enough, halfway through, I was already full😂 🥤 Drinks & Desserts: Fried Banana Is the MVP! Lychee lemonade: Ice-cold and sweet-tart, with a strong lychee flavor like drinking fresh lychee juice—definitely a grease-cutting star; Earl grey tea: Rich tea aroma, perfect with desserts. Sipping it warm, my stomach felt cozy; But the real standout was dessert! The sago was refreshing, but the fried banana took the crown—two thick bananas fried to a golden, crispy exterior, with a soft, mushy inside, served with cold vanilla ice cream. Warm banana mixed with icy-sweet cream, the joy of hot and cold in one bite is indescribable! My friend snatched the last piece: “This is the best fried banana I’ve ever had!”🍌🍦 🌿 Ambiance Bonus: A Cozy Spot in Publika The Publika branch I visited was lovely: simple wooden decor, warm yellow lights, hand-drawn food illustrations on the walls. Eating here, even chatting felt relaxed. I heard there are three more branches in ss15, bangi, and jb—I’ll definitely hit them all to try every flavor～ I left with a stuffed belly, still craving that salted egg sauce. Suddenly, I understood why people say “great restaurants break stereotypes”—at Jibril, halal food isn’t just traditional; it nails salted egg, butter, and more. No wonder regulars keep coming back. If you’re in Kuala Lumpur, promise me to try it! After all, finding a halal spot with salted egg chicken chop pasta that makes you want to return? That’s a rare delight. #KualaLumpurFood #HalalEats #SaltedEggPasta #PublikaEats #FoodieFind
