Suee's Bday

Today lunch with Suee. Supposedly wanted to go to Royal Selangor Pewter but heard it is at Setapak!! So went to pick up Suee and she was kind enough to drive (using my car) to Umarani for banana leaf rice. Yum!

After that went drop Suee at Honda workshop to pick up her car and went separately to Rui Bakery. I have always wanted to try the cakes in Rui. The smell of baking was really pleasant..we had miffy shape cookies and a piece of strawberry shortcake. The coffee is so so..from Coffex but it is not bad. We had fun eating and taking silly photos.

:D

When I got home, I just remember I didn't gave a little present to Suee...that I have bought earlier for her. Aiks...

Red Cabbage

Yesterday I wanted to buy brocolli to with pasta...but you know what...only one very small pathetic looking brocolli in the entire supermarket..which I can manage in half a bite..and it costs RM4.99! So forget it, I got myself a decent looking red cabbage for RM1.70, enough for me to cook for 5 times, seriously!

So I stir fried some minced garlics, red cabbage, an egg and some angel's hair and (cherry tomatoes, romaine, butterhead)--I cooked very quickly for these 3. It was delicious and I was filled with energy for the whole day...which later allowed me to wash my car under the hot sun.

Today I tried to do the same..anyway it is another 4 times to do ...I only cooked very little angel's hair this time. I did a variation...put in a chopped tomato instead of small ones. Still with minced garlic but I put in some dried shrimps...*sizzles sizzles sizzles*...voila..fantastic lunch!

I really love red cabbage so I really have to blog this so more people will appreciate red cabbage. <3

Yee Yan

Last Monday Yee Yan left a bag of goodies she got for me from Taiwan. I was very sleepy when I found this, but I thought it is such a nice view from my gate with the bag.

On Sunday we met again. I took her to Departure Lounge, we had coffee and some food. I love the turkey BTL sandwich. Awesome!! Even the coleslaw was delicious!

We also shared a pancake with banana. That was good too.

Most importantly, the company was very good. I don't see Yee Yan very often after we came back to KL. Maybe less than 10 times. It was nevertheless an awesome outing. We had great conversations and I felt very good after that. For a person so much younger, she is very determined and taught me about strength and courage. I will miss her when she goes to Singapore.

Dish Deli

Yesterday I went for chinese tui na massage and cupping. My back has so many red marks now, it is interesting to see.

After that, I met up with my language exchange friend to have lunch at Dish Deli. I bought the vouchers for RM18 per person.

My friend ordered Fisherman's pie. I tasted this before, I think it is awesome.

I orderd a roast chicken dish. Delicious.

My dessert: apple crumble with ice cream.

To have a lovely lunch with a main course, a drink and a dessert for RM18 is a steal. I am glad I bought the vouchers earlier from Milk A Deal. :)

Lovely dinner at La Risata

Today me and Mun Siong celebrate Kawati's belated birthday at La Risata. I couldn't believe how delicious it was. Even the bread and olive was very delicious. I like the pizza very much, it is called Pizza Vegetali with pine nuts, aubergine, cherry tomatoes.

The appetiser we ordered came later but it was alright. We had this baked aubergine with cheese and tomatoes, forgot the name though.

One of the highlight, beside the pizza is the baked seafood marinara! Yum!! We finished everything.

Lastly, we had Torta di Cioccolato, a flourless dark chocolate cake with a melting chocolate centre served with vanilla ice cream. Ooh la la!

I am very happy with the food quality and ambience of the restaurant. Definitely will go again.

Lunch at Akari

My lunch today, saba shioyaki at Akari. Not bad, but the food temperature was not hot enough today, in my opinion. Here is the pic, oops, I took 2 pieces of papaya before I remember to take the photo.

Easy Banana Bread

Today I baked this. I was thinking it will be a bread but I guess it is actually tastes like banana cake. I didn't have Vanilla Essence so I omit that. I didn't even have a measuring cup so I was just guessing the flour. Luckily it turned out okay. Here is the recipe:

EASY BANANA BREAD


1 1/2 c. self-rising flour

3 bananas, mashed

2 eggs

1/2 stick butter

1 tsp. vanilla

1 c. sugar



Cream together butter, eggs and sugar until smooth. Add bananas and vanilla; beat well. Mix in flour. Bake at 325 degrees for about 1 hour or until golden brown

nice lunch

I like this Pumpkin Sauce Noodles from the temple in Jalan Ampang. Very appetising and not much burden to my stomach. Comes with tasty shredded veggies such as beetroot, cucumber, carrot, pumpkin, seaweed.



Awesome! Yummy!

Chocolate Research Facility

My colleague went Singapore and helped me to get these 2 back. Nice..but kind of pricey. Check out the cool packaging.

Al-Rashwa Restaurant

Kawati's birtday was on April's Fool Day but we only had time to celebrate for her on Wednesday(14 April). She picked Al-Rashwa Restaurant in Jalan Damai.

The food was good but it was too much for us. I was with Kawati and Mun Siong. Not exactly big eaters.

We ordered Lamb Mandy. The nicest among the dishes.



Fish marinated with herbs.






Mixed grilled dish lamb and chicken, come together with bread.

It was nice...but really a bit too much for us. There is a special drink there which looks like beer bottle, made by malt with fruits flavours. That was nice too. However that night I ordered a big pot of red tea with mint. Love it!

Weekend 3-4 April 2010

Nowadays I am not a big fan of going out. Sorry guys, I know I am such a pain. However this week I went out twice and here's the proof.

Saturday..out with TV trying to use my BBQ Chicken voucher. Just to learn that BBQ Chicken has closed down in Hartamas. We had Nam Heong Chicken Rice instead. It was alright, but I think Ampang Park foodcourt better :P

Here is TV striking a pose after dinner.




Sunday..out with Yee Yan to One Utama. Still wanna use up the voucher and finally manage to use it. The food was so so only. I don't think I will go again, a bit too pricey. Here is Yee Yan with the RM50 voucher. We ordered 2 sets of chicken, 2 drinks and a deep fried prawns dish. Bill came up to be RM53+
