Travelling and Food memories with a dash of technology on the side
Heya all! Yes, yes, we know it has been a looonnnnggggg time since this blog has been updated. :( Andrew has been super duper busy, and hence I've been called on board as a guest blogger. Hope I will be able to add some spice back into this site! :) Here's a photo of myself just in case you might wanna put a face to the name. Haha. [singlepic id=1107 w=0 h=320 float=center] Anyway, the latest place we've been to is Al-Amar Express located on the prime sidewalk area of Jalan Bukit Bintang, right smack in the middle of downtown Kuala Lumpur. ...
This place had been one of the earliest reviews(review here) of this blog when I started which wasn't too long ago. There are now new items being introduced to their menu. For those reading about this place for the first time, its a very homey style cooking which reminds me of back home in Penang where my grandma would cook this dishes as well. Loaded with loads of fresh seafood items from squid, big prawns, baby abalone, bamboo clams and more, this dish is served in a milky based soup that has hints of sweet and sourness that you typically get ...
For one of our usual hunt for food, this time round Ken and I decided to look for the highly recommended roti canai in Jalan Semarak KL called Valentine Roti. It is located just across Menara Celcom although you could easily miss it if Menara Celcom is on your left since the flow of traffic bends just right in front of this shop. [singlepic id=997 w=500 h=0 float=center] A romantic name but I wonder how many people had their valentine dinner here? :p A slight detour to this post was that we notice while driving to this shop that it felt like we ...
Ahoy me mateys! Popped over recently to try out Manhattan's latest promo which is their mediterranean baked fish. The last time I did a review was on their Rush hour promo which made it very convenient for us to order over the phone and have it ready to be picked up and packed nicely for people on the go. So this time round, this promo revolves around the Mediterranean Baked Fish. A basic platter is priced at RM 13.90 while you have a choice of one add on topping at RM 2.90. The choices are clams, mussels, calamari and ...
The Mid-Autumn Festival or more popularly known as the Mooncake Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, around the time of the autumn equinox. For this Mid-Autumn Festival, Dim Sum Chef Lo Tian Sion and his team have created a range of innovative and modern mooncakes, THE FIVE ELEMENTS MOONCAKES… each one symbolic of the key elements of the celebration and the five elements of the universe. [singlepic id=917 w=500 h=0 float=center] Harmony, friendship, abundance, colour and fullness are the key elements of the Mid-Autumn Celebration which is very much aligned with the principles of the five basic ...
Before the Raya festivities begins, comes Ramadan (ninth month of the Islamic calendar) which is the Islamic month of fasting whereby participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking and sexual activites from dawn until sunset. Families will gather to eat in the early morning before starting their fast and beginning their day and then gather together to break fast in the evening. In conjuction with the holy month of Ramadan, Eccucion's culinary team has prepared a special menu of exceptional Malay cuisine to close your evenings during the month of Ramadan with over fifty (50) buffet items that changes daily ranging from ...
Its rush hour now but not on the roads but at the Manhattan FISH MARKET. Tick..Tock..Tick..Tock..as time waits for no man or woman, its essential that every moment is spent well. Hence that is how they came up with their new menu promotion "Rush Hour @ Manhattan". Along with this new menu, the Manhattan FISH MARKET also introduced a concept as well called "Takeaway-Friendly". How this works is diners can choose to pre-order their meals via a phone call to their nearest restaurant, swing by the restaurant and their food is conveniently waiting to be 'taken-away'.

If you're reading this in the morning then.. Ohaiyou Gozaimasu! If not then Konnichiwa!! :) With a new master chef in Enju @ Prince Hotel & Residence Kuala Lumpur, we were there to sample his offering of creative authenticity in Japanese cuisine. With 46 years of experience(that's like 1 ½ years of my lifetime!) under his belt dealing with Japanese cuisine, both traditional and fusion, it was natural to expect the standard he brings with him. [singlepic id=896 w=500 h=450 float=center] Master Chef Heiji Kasuga himself As we entered the restaurant, you would instantly see a bongsai plant and the various decorations adorned ...
I've been driving past this outlet for quite a while (every morning to work) telling myself that I should visit this place since its frontage caught my eye with its rather distictive red white and blue. I've tried going there for dinner before and they were really pack so had to give it a miss. So after a looong while that opportunity finally came after a practice photography session with my fellow foodies at a nearby park in TTDI. It was rather good timing since we had all worked up an appetitte. [singlepic id=806 w=500 h=450 float=center] Betty's Midwest Kitchen is situated ...
To all the dessert lovers out there, there's a cosy place to kick back, grab a book and read while eating your favourite dessert and sipping your drink. Located inside Times Bookstore @ Bangsar Shopping Centre, this cafe serves a variety of hot savouries like cornish and quiche to the cool mille crepe cakes. If you happen to be working in the office block next to the shopping centre, they'll even provide deliveries of these pastries, sandwiches and bakery treats.
