Divino, Jaya One

After numerous strolling around Jaya One for a place to drink, we finally decided to set ourselves at Divino. The ambience was comfy and itz a good place to chat/catch up with your friends. We settled ourselves at the bar counter.
Divino is currently having a wine promotion so we had wine the whole nite. Got to know that this bar is a subsidiary of Denise Wine Shop.

Berri States Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

This wine taste smooth and 'oaky'. I like this wine the most. Forgotten the exact price but this bottle is on the promo list.

Pouring wine skillfully :p

We observed that there are limited edition Heineken beers. "Waiter, can I get one of these?" hahaha..

Errazuriz Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

This is the second bottle of wine that we tried. This one taste a lil' sour than the first one. Not to my liking. This bottle is on the promo list as well.

Arrays of wines and liquors on the bar counter. Do notice the promo on the whiteboard. RM40 for a bottle of wine. That is cheap wei and the taste isn't that bad but I could not comment much if you guys out there have a sensitive/good tastebud for wine. I am not a wine tester you know :p

Aftermath the 3 bottles of wine - sudah "mabok" hahahaha..

This place is recommended for its good service and ambience. The waiter changes your wine glass after every bottle and they are able to recommend and explain each bottle depending on your liking. There is even a wine shop if you can't find anything you like from the bar.
Note : Picture courtesy of Fen. Not able to post the third bottle here.

Brussels Beer Cafe

Located at Jaya One, Petaling Jaya.
This cafe serves mostly local and imported beers.



I ordered 1 pint of Hoegaarden beer (RM28). Saw there is 'dai dai bui' from other customer's table; when asked the waiter for the price - it was RM138 for 5pints. That is really a lot!! Could be consume by 10 people I guess.


Not a bad place to hang out when you want to chat and try imported beers at the same time. Oh, they serve cocktails as well such as Mojitos but it doesnt taste nice.

Canton-i

We were supposed to eat at Soho,KL but got to know that kedai tutup!! Indecisive, we headed to Canton-i

As we walked into the restaurant, the interior is somewhat like Dragon-i.

One of my faves : egg tarts!!

The egg tarts (RM3+) were yummy. Flaky pastry with smooth egg custard.

Char Kuey Teow with beef slices in sizzling hot plate

This dish is kinda oily but overall it was okay. The beef slices doesnt taste fresh though.

Seafood fried rice

Braised pork knuckles with wantan mee

Roast duck with wantan mee

it looks too cute to be eaten,eh?

The piggy bun is actually red bean bun. Cant remember the price but itz the normal 'hong dao pau' that you can get from the pasar. Just that the chef makes it to a shape of a piggy.

Overall, Dragon-i taste better than Canton-i. I wont be visiting Canton-i for the second time.

Long Bar, One World Hotel

"Hmmm.. where should we go for second round?" Long Bar! , exclaimed Fen. "A good place to 'keng sum see'" hahaha.. so she said..
We stroll along the path from 1 Utama that leads to Long Bar. The bar is located at the ground floor - parking lot of One World Hotel.
As we stepped into the bar, the place was deserted except for a few waiters and waitresses whom greeted us as we strolled along rows of high bar chairs and tables. We walked till the end section of the bar and stumbled upon a more private area with sofas around. The place is totally empty except for the 3 of us!! Looks as though we reserve the whole bar keke..
We seated ourselves comfortably at a big red cushion sofa. The lights in this bar change constantly every 10 seconds from green - blue - red - white ; so you gotta adjust yourself with the colors.

Notice the cute flourescent drink 'stick mixer'?

Drinks ordered :

• Planters punch (RM24) - taste like cough syrup (not recommended)
• Iced hazelnut milk (RM16) - Kinda sweet for my liking
• Strawberry milkshake (RM16) - acceptable :p

Titbits are served FOC :)

The drinks here are slightly expensive but worth for the ambience here. It is comfy and pop music was played by a DJ da whole night. Volume level is not blasting till you cant talk. Anyway, we were playing cards most of the time. haha..

princess egg tart in 'pretentious' mode

Pasta Zanmai

After a tiring window shopping trip at 1 Utama, me and my girlfren decided to eat at Pasta Zanmai for dinner.
The queue was not long so we were seated once there.

Soft Shell Crab spaghetti in sesame sauce

The sesame sauce taste good with the combination of spaghetti and soft sheel crab. The crabs were a bit oily though. This dish cost RM25 that comes together with a set - miso soup and salad

Seafood spaghetti in tomato paste

The bolognaise sause is a bit tasteless but itz surely loaded with squids and prawns. Set is RM28 that comes together with miso soup and salad.

let's makan together-gether

Hey ya!
As promised yamchar gang will share all kinds of food that we found anytime anywhere from A to Z...
Get your hankies prepared..... enjoy eating ~

Let's start with San Francisco at KLCC

Had this grilled salmon set at RM16.90. Set comes with soup of the day, main course and also bottomless softdrinks.
The portion is much much smaller than it was few weeks back. But it was quite good thou.
They serve different main course by day.

Same goes to fish & chips set at RM16.90.
As you noticed, it used to have 2 piece of fish fillet but now they only serve 1 piece and they charge you same price!!!!
Actually 1 piece is just nice for my tummy =P
Fresh and juicy.

Puchong nearby HSBC/UOB

Ah Hong fish head curry. RM12 for 'small'. Enough for 2-3 pax. The ingredients used are mostly high quality especially the fish. Deep fried fish that has less bones taste so good. Ginger used are "man tong" ginger. Curry had enough of santan.
Although all ingredients are great but it doesn't give me the 'ummph' feeling yet. It could be better.

After Ipoh local food, we moved on to Korea food.
Experiment done at "Han Woo Ri" Jln Ampang.
From left to right, Korea local appetizer/side dishes. Sorry, can't remember what they called it.
All can't be finish except tofu, spinach and the fried anchovies. Others taste weird included kimchi. They will keep topping-up if you finished eating any of it.
Next is the steamboat, it was cooked using onions, tofu, vege, mushrooms, etc and also pig intestines - yucks !!!! ... soup base is so 'rich' and taste good.
Next is the most famous Korean BBQ. We had pork rib and also beef. Grilled together with onions and garlic is a must.
Chum Churum taste strong. It contains 20% alcohol. Restaurant owner recommend us to drink it with lime. Not bad.
Last but not least, the PANCAKE !!!! It taste similar to our "mien fern kuey" with prawns and vege stuffing. Yummy Yummy.

Somehow, I realize that I don't really fancy Korea Food.
The total bill comes up to rm295.90. Expensive kah?

Anyone tried this before? SweetChat cafe at Berjaya Times Square.
I was so pist-off with the service. I been waited to be served for more than 15 minutes and press the "call bell" for more than 4 times, yet noone is taking my order. Well, I didn't even get to view the menu actually.

The problem is the cafe was not crowded at that time!! Or am I the unlucky one for that day?? Whatever...

Anyone tried? How was it? I can smell the durian dessert. Looks good.

Highly recommended pork noodles from SS15, Restaurant Pomander.
So far this is the best pork noodles I had.
Fresh raw egg was added on top.
Meat is perfectly marinated.
Soup taste sweet and good. Zoom in, you'll be able to see the thickness of the soup base.. imagine all the food essence was melted - all in a bowl... Slrrrpppp....
