The Venue @ Pavilion KL

Daniel's playing today, he invited me to go and watch him play. I went early since i work really nearby. While watching them practice i got hungry......



   Spaghetti Carbonara ~ I like how the waiter came over to help me grind the pepper because I look completely lost holding that stick. I don't like the spaghetti though,  they put some vege or herb inside which made the spaghetti taste funny.


The waitress brought the bill right after i finish my food, I looked at her but I kept quiet for a while. A while later i ask the other waiter I said do I have to pay now? He said no you can pay later when you leave. I said so why are you bringing me the bill when I didn't ask for it? So rude! Its like they are afraid that ill run off.

I sat a while then i went for a walk, I walked quite some distance and very near where I parked my car. I bought a couple of things then I headed back cause I was too tired to walk back all the way to watch Daniel play. Well at least I came and gave my support, that's all that matters right?? :D

Garden Recipe @ Paradigm Mall

I remember the first time I had the steamboat set, It was so good that I kept wanting to come back to try it again but never had the right company. Not everyone likes vegetarian ya know :/ including myself but I make an exception every now and then.


 Homemade Mushroom Soup ~ Very good, you can taste the richness of the mushroom and cream.

Mini Steamboat Set ~ My healthy rice :)

Mini Steamboat Set ~ Miso Soup.

  Mini Steamboat Set ~ Unfortunately most of the things I don't eat, I tried telling the waiter to exchange for me however.....
I ordered the same thing at Simple Life @ Pyramid, the boss actually make the effort to exchange things that I do not want, thumbs up for that and their steamboat set is very good.

  Nasi Kerabu with Mamak Fried Chicken Leg ~ Mel hated this, he said this is one of the most horrible food that he ate. Since he said that it was that bad I had to try of course, the chicken was bland, it tasted like it was being cooked in boiling water then fried. This was pretty bad. 


Being excited about getting to eat the steamboat again brought my expectations up, but when I had it and the food was bad, I was dissapointed. The steamboat did not taste as good as it once used to. Oh well I guess I will patron Simple Life from now on then.

This is also the same restaurant where Ms Cheah brought her family and apparently the worker spilled the drink and soaked poor Ling from head to toe. I asked Ms Cheah if the meal was free? She told me that she din't even get a discount and the boss was there. I was like WTF!!!! Are you kidding me?? If it was me who got splashed all over I would have thrown a fit till the whole restaurant can hear my voice. That was the last time Ms Cheah went to that place, she said to me NO MORE! 

I found the place rather crowded, surprisingly people nowadays have little taste in food or service. You must be wondering how can I go back after the incident that Ms Cheah encountered, well the only reason I went back there was because of the steamboat; now that I have had it, it's lousy I am never going back there again. Tulus!

Komugi Bakery @ Mid Valley Megamall

I just finished gym,I am starving from all the exercise. I walked around hunting for munchies and i came across Komugi. It was really crowded so I thought the bakery here must good. There were so many people and not enough staff, I had to stand quite a while before the lady attended to me, each time she wanted to select my macaroons someone else came in front of her to ask her pack the cakes. The poor lady does not seem to be getting any help from her 2 colleagues who were standing behind of her God knows doing what??

    It is only a bakery and not cafe so I had to take away my cake and macaroons.

  I like Praline the best, the other flavors I do not taste anything special. 

    Zahha Chocolate Cake ~ This is really good, mousse and sponge part they make it in a way that both go very well together.

Like To Eat Seafood Restaurant @ Bandar Puteri Puchong

It is Mommy's Day and mimi decided to eat opposite of Tak Fok after seeing the long queue there. Tak Fok is one of our regular restaurant to visit because they serve rather delicious Butter Crab. Like To Eat look like they have lesser queue however when we were sitting, they took quite a while before they serve us. Most of the people there are waiting with frustrated and hungry faces.


  Mantao ~ Somehow the mantao at Tak Fok is nicer; tastier and crispier.

   Fried Leng Ngaus ~ My favorite lotus root but this one is still a lil too hard. When I chew on it I can hear the crunching sound meaning its only cook for a while. I prefer for it to be soft but not too soft and a lil hard but not too hard. 

    Lala with Dried Prawn ~ Mimi and didi loves to eat lala, they both swallowed the whole plate. 

    Sizzling Sambal Sotong ~ This is fantastic, sotongs are fresh, curry like sambal is superb. Dip the mantao, BEST!

   Hamtan Crab ~ This is good, unfortunately not enough, should have ordered more. Another place that serves good Hamtan Crab is at Cheong Wah Pusat Bandar Puchong and also at Tak Fok. 

  Butter Crab ~ Creamy and rich in butter, dip the crab meat in the sauce. One word "SYOK"!

Le Macaroon by Molten Lava @ Midvalley Megamall

I thought Molten Lava only has a shop in One Utama, I was walking pass a couple of kiosk while I was shopping at Midvalley, the macaroons on display caught my eye, I decided to give these little buggers a try.


 I like Black Sesame & Pistachio the best, others just taste like coloring.

Horse Riding @ Taman Ekuestrian Putrajaya

Looking back at my past months where I use to be able to horse ride every Friday morning, the I head straight to work, of course I bring clothes to change I wouldn't want to work smelling like a horse now would I.  Good times! Ever since I started my new job I stopped riding. I look forward to the day when I can ride again.


My First Lesson :)

Lincoln Baby.




  The humongous field where I have my lessons :)





























When I ride, all my problems fall behind. It is really awesome, you should give it a try sometime. Maybe one day when I changed to a less demanding job, I will ride again. Till then food would have to be my comfort :/

Dr Cafe Coffee @ The Strand, Kota Damansara

Dr. Cafe is an imitation of Starbucks, lets see if it is as good as Starbucks or just as bad.

  Caramel Coffee Mocha ~ I asked for coffee art and he used honey to draw a few lines. Typical! I didnt like the mocha, caramel was too sweet and coffee was too strong. Added two cups of milk and yet still not able to neutralize the bitter taste. At least Starbucks Caramel Machiato is to die for. 

  Oreo Cheese Cake ~ Nothing special at all since ever I've tasted the Oreo cake at PH Pastry.
