Illustration Purposes

Went for supper with my best buddy the other nite. As we`re not very hungry but mouth itchy, LOL...We ordered something to share.

He saw this on menu and ask for my opinion. Well, from the menu, the food looked not bad and delicious. Big portion too, enough for both of us. And the price, very worth it for that portion.

So, we ordered the food and upon reached.....Well, judge for urself...

From the menu....Not bad rite? RM8.50 only...

This is what the waiter gave to us.......

o.O Thats the look on our face when the food came. My buddy even asked the waiter " is this what we`ve ordered" and the waiter answered us " YES"....FML....

TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT....lagi worse than our chicken rice laa...

Menu really is for illustration purposes only....=_=||

KL Trip - 29th Oct to 1st Nov

My convocation was on the 31st of Oct but I went to KL earlier on the 29th as I wanted to settled everything before the date line. Actually, there was a rehearsal for the convo on the 30th but I got an interview with OSK on that day itself. So, I forgo the rehearsal and went to the interview.

Everything was new to me. My first time in mostly everything. Going places in KL was chaotic. Endless of grumbles and angers. Sigh. But it was fun. Gain alot of memories as well as knowledge. Reminder : Must get a GPS next time. Hehe.

Parents came to KL on the 30th. Wanted to bring them to 1U that nite but somehow, I ended ourselves at Sunway Piramid. Haha. Funny, rite? Then, we had our dinner at Wong Kok.


Saw a lot of ghosts and mummies that nite as they were celebrating Halloween. Wanted to get into the feel and I got this for us. Hehe. Doughnut from the famous Krispy Kreme with Halloween theme.


Then, we went back to our hotel at Putrajaya. Swt. Damn far and tiring ride for me. Cuz basically, since I reached KL, all I did was drive drive and drive. My legs damn pain. Zzzzzz.

31st Oct was my big day. Woke up early at 6am to prepare as the ceremony start at 7:30am. *post pic later, ok* hehe.

After the ceremony, we checked out from the hotel and went to chek into another hotel at PJ. Another hell ride for me cuz I don`t know how to go. But lucky, Woofy was there to guide me and managed to reach the hotel. Haiz. Dramatic.

Then, I bring my parents to place that I am more confident of which is the KL town. Easy water. Keke. =P Brought them to KLCC. Haha.

Soon, it was ard 11 plus, when I suddenly wanted to go to SS2 for thong sui. And there we go. Hehe. thong sui at KTZ. Yummy sial. Met my "bf" and we chatted awhile before he led me back to the hotel. Owe him big one.


On the final day of our trip, I finally able to bring parents to 1U and before we left to PG, I bring them to Ikea where mum bought a few pans and pots. Haha. And, I helped my friend to buy a dozen of drinks back. Swt. Haha.

We makan and minum during our time at 1U. Haha. Ate to much though. =P As I walked around, I saw this small shop selling Lok -Lok, 1 stick for RM1. So, i draged my cousin sis to join me for a small session. Hehe.


After that, we walked around again. And I saw this cute thong sui shop and I wanted to try again. There we goes. Haha.

This is called " Yeong Chi Kam Lou" Heard bout this on drama but 1st time try this. kinda yummy. Pamelo with mango and sago.

This is mum`s "Ginger with Milk"

Conclusion : It was a kinda hectic trip for us but we enjoyed ourselves very much. Hope theres more trip for us as family.

Edelweiss Cafe @ Penang

Edelweiss Cafe is the only Swiss restaurant in Penang. I`ve heard about this restaurant long time ago but don`t really have the time to search for it until we passed by the restaurant early this year during the CNY`s open house.

Then, I started to plan to bring my mum to the restaurant on her birthday but the restaurant was closed on every Monday, so, we postponed to plan to the weekend which is on last 2 Saturday. So, together with mum, my cousin, Woofy and me, we are there for dinner.

The entrance is nicely decorated with lots of greenery.

Upon entering, the interior are decorated with antiques.


Then, we ordered some of the restaurant specialties. And, this is the food that we ordered.

Appetizer- Salad with thousand island sauce

Cheese fondue
the combination of cheese and white wine which are imported from Switzerland. (RM 75)

Mum`s pork ribs.
nicely grilles ribs with special sauce (RM29)

Bratwurst sausage

similar with German sausage which can also be dipped in the cheese fondue (RM28)

Woofy's Rosti Mit Bacon and Egg

pizza-look-alike with sunshine egg and bacon and lots of onion (RM20)

And, the drinks that we ordered.

Woofy`s Spiced Teh Tarik Ice
tasted something like Teh Tarik but riched with cinnamon aroma (RM5.50)

Used to be mine but soon it became my cousin`s Camomile tea
its a flower tea - tasted like Camomile *hahaha*=P (RM 6)

Mum`s hot cappucino

at 1st, there`s a heart shape on top of the coffee but soon, it changed shape *haihz* (RM6)

My Madras coffee
tasted like normal coffee but its caffeine-free *theres the heart shape im talking about -cute eh?* (RM 6)

Then , me and my cousin wander about the restaurant and saw this cute deco.

Taken near the restroom area.

The price is abit steep but considered that its a Swiss cuisine and its for mum`s birthday treat, we dont mind to slurge abit. The total bill came RM 191.95 considered service charge and tax for 4 people.

Will definitely drop by again if given the chance.=)

My all time favorite is BACK!!!!

Woohoo....currently Astro channel 311 WLT is re-airing my all time favorite drama "Journey To The West (part 1)"

So happy...I`ve been watching the drama over and over again for countless of times and I even can remember their dialogue...Even my mum is annoyed with me..=P

I still remember the first time I watched the drama is when Im 13 and my dad even rent it for me to watch...Since then, I never failed to watched it whenever TV is showing the drama or my relatives` rent the drama...

And, guess what, my dad even bought the DVD set for me - a complete set with part 2...But i don`t like to watch the part2 cause I like Dicky Cheung who act The Monkey God in the 1st part more...He`s the reason i watch the drama...keke...Been a little fans of him since small...

Love the tag line of his ~~ Yo, watch drama, sai mat keng arrrr!!~~ HAHAHAHA...Crazy d me....=P

****************************

On a side note, I tried to make my own mashed potato after being inspired by DD. Hmmm, on my first attempt, i don`t think i did very well cause i did not use the mixer to mash the potatoes and resulted a not so smooth texture...

Will try to make the gravy tonite for dinner and will see how it goes...

Mt Erksine Hainan Western Food

Last Friday, Meowy and I brought her mum and uncle for a western food dinner at Mount Erskine. We picked that place because of 2 reasons: First, the food there is nice. Secondly, her uncle wanted to try out the well-known western food there. Hehe…

The shop.

We reached there at around 8.30pm, and as usual, the place is crowded - full with customers. But we were lucky and managed to get our seats as soon as we were there. Without letting our tummy to keep feeling hungry, we ordered our food. The waiting time is a bit long because there were many customers, but who cares when you know that you’re going to have some nice food? Hehe… Anyway, we ordered the following food:

Butter Garlic Fish

Black Pepper Steak

Chicken Cordon Bleu

Chicken Maryland

And we have nice drinks as well, the 契家婆 Kick-a-poo! Keke…

The Kick-a-poo :P

The food we had was nice, and it was considerably cheap as well, all for around RM40 including drinks. Worth, isn’t it? Hehe…

P/S: After that, we went to Batu Feringghi to look for some DVD movies, but all the stalls closed le… Muz be the MPPP punya pasal…. Sien… :(

Blueberry Cheese Tart

Few weeks ago, i got this urge to do some baking but for being a noob in bakery, i asked my mum to help me. After finding recipe that is much simpler, we headed to buy the ingredients.

A part of the ingredient : Cream cheese, blueberry jam, lemon, digestive biscuit, yogurt, and also gelatine (we use gelatine to replace egg cause i wanted to a eggless cheese tart )

This is the recipe that we used to make the cheese tart:

• Tart Base
  200g Digestive Biscuits (finely crushed)
  100g Melted Butter

Filling

• (A)
  250g Cream Cheese
  20g Sugar
  
• (B)
  20g Sugar
  30g Lemon Juice (about 1 Lemon)
  1 Lemon Zest Grated
  
• (C)
  1 1/2 tbsp Gelatine
  60g Water
  
• (D)
• 150g Whip Topping Cream (whipped) ~ instead of using whipping cream, we use yogurt

Method

Tart Base

1. Mix the biscuit base ingredients until well blended
   
2. Press onto bottom of your desired mould
   
3. Refrigerate while making the cream cheese filling

Filling

1. Cream (A) until light and smooth
   
2. Put (B) in a bowl and place over a double-boiler. Cook until light and fluffy while stirring constantly
   
3. Premix (C) and place over double-boiler. Stir until gelatine dissolves. Add it into (B) and mix until well combined. Leave to cool slightly. Add into (A) and mix until well blended
   
4. Fold in (D) and mix well
   
5. Pour it onto the prepared biscuit base
   
6. Refrigerate for 4 hours or till firm

The cheese mixture.

Pour the cheese mixture into the base.

End product....

As we have extra cheese mixture left, so we make it as blueberry cheesecake. =P

This is my first attempt on doing baking. Hehe. Not too bad for a 1st timer eh? =P

Ice cream or Gelato?

Suddenly, im craving for gelato.

Im sure most of you knows what is gelato but still,lemme tell you bits bout it. =P But im lazy to type its out, so i just quote it from wikipedia. Hehe

Gelato, or the plural Gelati, is Italian ice cream made from a liquid, milk or water; a solid, sugar, fats or sweeteners; flavorings, pastes, fruit powders; stabilizers, guar gum, locust bean, etc.; emulsifiers, mono- and digylcerides; and air. The process in which gelato is made varies on the ingredients used as it can be made using a hot process, which includes pasteurization or as a cold process which doesn't require pastuerization. Both processes require a gelato batch freezer, which makes the end product by mixing the ingredients and incorporating air. Like high-end ice cream, gelato generally has less than 55% air, resulting in a denser and more flavorful product.

In my opinion, it does taste nicer than normal ice cream and basedon the definition, it seems healthier to me. *yummmyummm*

Anyway, I had gelato at this outlet called Gelatissimo located at the Pavilion, KL during my visit in the begining of this year.

They do have a variety of choices to choose from and by just looking at those gelato, it makes me wana have they all. But it will cost me loads. =(

Its just part of the variety selection. Looks tempting?Still have the "Merry Christmas" wishes. =P

After sometime of testing those gelati, i made up my mind for 2 types of flavour but i`ve forgot what i chose. But believe me, its really really yummy.

I WANT MY GELATO NOW !!!!! *grumpy*

Sudden crave...

Im craving for a bowl of "zhi ma wu" (black sesame paste) since last nite. I`ve been searching over the internet for dessert shop in Penang that sell the "zhi ma wu".

Finally, i found 1 dessert shop that sell this kind of dessert. So, we fast fast get ready and head to town as the shop will be closed at 10.30pm.

Then, upon reaching, i looked at d menu but theres no "zhi ma wu" or black sesame paste. So dissappointed. T___T

But, because that we have reached the shop and dont want to waste the petrol, we settled down with the menu.

The menu with no black sesame paste

Woofy ordered black congee with Longan (we called them as 'bee ko moi' in hokkien)

My mama ordered ginger extract with milk.

And me, ordered a double boiled papaya with almond.

But i only ate half of it cause i really really really want the 'zhi ma wu'.

Anyone living in Penang can tell me where i can have d 'zhi ma wu'??

Anyway, if you want to know, the shop is called Sugar Dynasty Food Delight. Located at Nagore Road.

We`re Jailed...!!!!

Few weeks ago, me and my freinds kena jail. But in the jail, it was filled with laughter and happiness and most importantly - MAKAN.

We went to this restaurant with the jail concept, Obake-ya where they serves japanese cuisine. Reached the place at ard lunch time ard 12:30 pm and we need to head back to college at 2 pmfor our quiz. Hehe. We`re really oo free nothing to do cuz we din even study for our quiz before hand. Notty girls...!!!

Anyway, back to the restaurant, its very cool and very fresh and unique. For customers came in group, they will be sitted in the 'cel'.

Here`s some of the photo in the restaurant :

Some of the decoration :

From the inside of the cel

The flame

A small hole - just like those in the real jail

The menu and the food :

The utensils

Our food

Cool drinks - they are actually fruits punch

The food was not bad. And the price for the set lunch was quite resonable but the hic-cups were the service charge and tax. Over 5, i gave the 3.5 - still got room to improve on. Hehe.

And before you leave the place, why dontstop by and take a picture of them.....
