Perth WA Halal Restaurant: O'Mama Kopitiam

***UPDATE: The restaurant has longer have Halal Certifate. Now, the named has changed***

Sometimes we come here just to had our dinner or lunch. Oh yes, we also had the yummy Gelare here as previous post. It is located at Waterford Plaza, Karawara; about 8-9km from our cosy home.

This time around was to try the O'Mama Kopitiam, just opposite the Gelare. The restaurant looks simple with few lights and Chinese tanglong decoration in front of the counter. Plus the marble tables and chairs, reminds me of the tradition of Baba & Nyonya of Melaka. Oh yes, we've been told that the restaurant itself is owned by a Malaysian Melaka Baba Nyonya.

Not many people at this hour, maybe it's a bit late~~nearly close.

There is a promotional offer going on, where you can get a nasi lemak with a chicken side dish for only $4.80! I think that's cheap enough as the cheapest meal that I normally can get is $5.50-$6.00. The offer starts from lunch I think until it's sold out. And obviously it is not available at night - I think it's being sold out before the afternoon comes! Will try it one day insyaAllah, the photo looks tempting!

Definitely not this photo, the front poster facing outside. Forgot to snap a photo of it. Sorry!

We ordered Horfun in egg sauce and Claypot Loh Shud Fun/Udon. Price range is between $14-$20 per dish, which I find it a bit pricey. But I guess the Horfun is fair enough with the large dish being served as below, while the claypot is just a normal fried noodles. I think they just fry the noodles and served it using the claypot. The noodles doesn't look like being cook directly in the claypot. Haihh..and for the small claypot which costs us $13.50, it is definitely expensive.

This is the Claypot Loh Shud Fun

Overall, the restaurant isn't that bad at all, just average. The service was a bit poor- you have to wait quite a long time although there were not that busy. I can't imagine if we come during peak hours.

Please feel free to taste it yourself

Perth WA Halal Restaurant: The Ghan Restaurant, Belmont

This was our first time here, where most of our friends recommended that if you're looking for the best Indian/Afghanistan food. They have it all here. So, one fine day, here we came to taste it ourselves.

Great food. Good service. Clean and I love the interior. Great location too!

Perth WA Halal Restaurant: Bua Siam Restaurant

Recommended by a friend of ours, we then decided to give it a try to this lovely restaurant. It is located in Langford Avenue, which is not far from our house. Since yesterday was their anniversary day, they offer discounts for all customers ie 15% to those take-away and 20% for those dining in.

There were many cars parked outside the restaurant, showing that the restaurant will be crowded. As expected, most of the tables were occupied. Alhamdulillah, hubby made a wise decision by making a reservation less than an hour earlier. So, we managed to get our seats =) I remember my friend of mine once said that when she came about a month ago, there were none except their family. I believed the discount offers must be the main attraction of why people grab the chance to come and taste it that night!

Deep Fried Whole Fish with three taste sauce

Massaman Beef Curry

Once seated, we've been served with a plate of prawn crackers and plain water. Of course with a menu for each of us, including Maryam..hehe..Quite difficult to choose since we don't have anything in mind. So we ended up with Deep Fried Whole Fish with three taste sauce, Massaman beef curry and 2 steamed rice. Luckily we don't order those entree or soups as those were more than enough! Jenuh nak menghabiskan nasi dan lauk!


Alhamdulillah, great taste! Sedap and recommended! Deep Fried Whole Fish with three taste sauce; we thought that might be similar with Ikan Masak 3 Rasa in Malaysia. But, no-it's different. The sauce was sauce - not that spicy, sweet and I just loved the taste! The same with Massaman Beef Curry- a special Thai Curry, which is definitely different from those curry that I made at home! hehe...It is a mild curry seasoned with tamarind, palm sugar and coconut milk with potatoes and peanuts. 

Would love to have another try insyaAllah. But not that often definitely as it is quite pricey. Once in a while would be okay.

Why don't you have it a try yourself?
