GPS Location: 3°07'34.7"N 101°36'54.3"E
烧肉叉烧日本珍珠米 Roasted Pork & ChaSiew w/Japanese Pearl Rice rm$11.50 👍👍😋😋 
Budget: MYR$15
Cuisine: 燒臘 Chinese Roasted Pork, ChaSiew, Chicken
Highlights: Must try Roasted Pork & ChaSiew with the Japanese Pearl Rice
Parking: Either Atria Shopping Gallery ($2/hours) or Smart Parking
Thoughts: Here, at "Boon" or 本记, you can order your Roasted items with either Curry noodle, Dry WantonMee nooodle, or the Japanese Pearl Rice. I'd suggest the 日本珍珠米 Japanese Pearl Rice, no idea of its identity (from Japan gua!) but short grain, slightly swelled and perhaps maybe Pearl-like steaming rice goes really well with the ChaSiew!
The founder of 本记 "Boon", Mr Cheam Kar Mun whom is now in his mid-30s, openend his first shop in Kota Damansara in 2015. Sadly, the shop was closed due to business wasn't as good as expected, perhaps 时运没到! And then focused on selling roasted pork in SS2 night market and later went back to Ipoh. But in July 2018, two of his customers Mr Bryan Yeow & Lionel Lau from his shop at Kota Damansara, convinced Mr Cheam to re-open his business, and that's I am at dinner today in Damansara Jaya!

And I think the 3-partners are doing well now as "Boon Signature", on a week night was with many customers even at almost 9pm, perhaps 时运到
The Roasted Pork, with golden skin and still crunchy, nice. ChaSiew (Boon called it 玫瑰叉烧) is not the typical taste; with a crystal skin, maybe a little closer to 玻璃叉烧 "glass chasiew" (like those from Shah Alam Taman Sri Muda's 阳光烧腊 Restoran Spring Golden or Glenmarie Meng Kee Char Siew 明记叉烧王) likely honey coated (maybe), came with some fat, I liked it. But the combo did went well with Japanese Pearl Rice! Maybe not the best but I'd say, worth a visit. 
I'd say 本记 Boon is a decent 燒臘 Chinese Roasted shop, I don't mind revisting to try their Curry Noodle with Hainanese-Toppings and Hong Kong style "bamboo" Noodles or soon-coming 咸蛋烧肉 "Ham Dan Siew Yoke" (according to Malay Mail). 
You can even take-away 脆皮烧肉 Roasted Pork of 1kg at rm$115 and the same price also for 1 kg of 玫瑰叉烧 "Rose" ChaSiew. And Mr Cheam and his partners will be also introducing Delivery Service of their Roasted items for folk in KL or PJ. 
I enjoyed my meal here tonight.
