The first thing that blows my mind was the price, I thought it would be very pricy, but I was wrong. For a high-end place with such well furbished interior, the item was surprisingly cost less than out expectations!
I once celebrated birthday withmy friend here and had a romantic dinner with my boyfriend as well, all went flawless. I was so into the pizza, smoked salmon pizza. With the hand-stretched pizza dough rolled into thin crust baked till crispy with slight tenderness, topped with smoky salmon and a wobbly poach egg, the pizza is a complete bomb of the night! 
Thin crust pizzas bring out the fine flavour of smoked salmon.

Besides that, we ordered squid ink risotto,which is the seasonal item of the restaurant,  praying hard that the squid ink wont dye our mouth and teeth. mad The risotto was good, but i'm not really satisfied with the temperature of the food as it was served warm but cooled down too fast, ended up we were eating cold food. Besides that, the risotto could be undercook a little to retain the slight crunch of the grains. 

 
I wasn't a good drinker, but my friend ordered a Sangria for me, and yeah for me, it's good. What is more interesting is the gradient colour shades of the drinks that attracts the eyes. smile The surrounding was peaceful, and the dim lights were calm and soothing, complementing the overall dining experience with a laid-back feeling. All in all, the food and  the environment is perfect for a memorable romantic date or a nostalgic gathering.

Before the shop was being refurbished, the shop looked a little run down and I was quite doubtful about the qualities of the food and beverage they serve. The new look of the shop was so hipster and cozy, the interior has been renovated, making the shop looks pretty lively and youthful! Upon transformation, they even extend their business in selling bottled cold press juices!

 
The branch in SetiaWalk is one of my favorite spot to chill with friends or work on certain assignments. I always feel sleepy, half way doing work because the place is really comfortable. mad
The juices made here tasted very fresh, and the amount was pretty generous, 500ml for 11.90, upgradable to 800ml for 15.00. In fact, even without any food, finishing the whole jar of it would make you really full.

Cold pressed juices gains its reputation these days in line with the healthy food trend, without sugar or with reduced sugar. I always love the moment I walk in from the entrance door, as the natural fruity fragrances were mesmerizing.

The fruit juices can be customized whether it's a single fruit or a combination. Anyhow, the shop provides whole list of fruit combination juice, with different health benefits. My favourite is always something really sour, thus, some berries or citrus juice would be the best choice!

In juice d'fruitz, great dishes are being served as well. The sunshine platter's generous portion made it a great value deal indeed! The sausages were juicy, accompanied by two beautiful sunny side ups, salads, ham, baked beans and toast, all in one for RM 13.90, it's totally my kind of deal!

 
The Dancing Mushroom consists of fragrant sauteed mushroom sanwiched between hot, crispy yet soft croissants was amazing. The size of the croissant was unexpectedly huge, my friend claimed that the portion is lil' too big for her as she couldn't really finish then by herself. 😂

Thumbs Up for Juicy Food! Smile Feb 03, 2016

It's a sudden cravings for fast food and something guilty, and so we bumped into this outlet in Sunway Pyramid, something new for us to try! The shop has established for quite some time, but its 'expensive' look from the outside, made us chose other things previously. We finally decided to settle down here, after a long ponder about what to eat, and it's time for us to explore new places that we have never been before!

The menu items were something like Carls Junior, a higher end of fast food chains but it is not a self-service, so we still called it a restaurant anyways. Unfortunately, it does not comes with a set, which pretty much disappoints me a little. Nonetheless, the food looks really appetizing by reading the descriptions of each item in the menu!

My boyfriend ordered a rosemary chicken accompanied by to side dishes. 200g of butterflied chicken breast was marinated with olive oil rosemary and garlic, perfectly seasoned and cooked to excellent succulence. It comes with two side dishes of your choice, either fries, coleslaw, mashed potatoes, pumpkin rice, corn on the cob or mixed veggies. The fragrant and soft pumpkin rice and crispy fries were chosen to go with the chicken, and what's the best thing? The Garlic Aioli sauce was so so so good! We finished the sauce pretty fast and we even ask for more sauce, it just goes well with everything; you might think it's weird, but I kinda like to eat the sauce by its own.

 
The Southwest Chicken Sandwich has the grilled chicken breast was just right, and layered between the soft buns, topped with fried onions and cheddar cheese. I ordered this mainly because of the fried onions that never fail to tempt me. mad However, the amount of the fried onions could be more generous, as the crunchy sensation was mere.  Everything in between the buns matched each other flawlessly, and I liked the overall taste of the sandwich, the cheese and the fried onions were the best combination, seriously, and it does kills my cravings for the day. 

 
In overall, I still thought that if there's set menu, it will attract me more! mad We had great time over here, and the service crews provide prompt service and were friendly. like

New Favourite Wanton Mee! Smile Feb 02, 2016

Categories : Malaysian variety | Café | Noodles

My sister booked the whole cafe for my mom's 60th Birthday Dinner, and it went very well! The food was good and this cozy place is perfect for a gathering or celebration for 30-40 pax. I suppose they are one of the pioneers that sells black charcoal noodles as their main item of the restaurant, after myBurgerLab who highlights their black charcoal bun. What is more interesting, is the great varieties of wonton and charcoal noodles they serve! The odd combinations like vinegar, garlic and lychee sounded strange to me, but since it was being recommended by the chef, I trust that it won't be wrong!

 
The vinegar garlic and lychee charcoal noodles are a great surprise! It's more to a sweet sauce with a slight acidic note that tempts your appetite and makes you eat more! It's rather refreshing in a way, and does not taste so heavy. Moreover, a big plus point for the huge portion of food, with a big bowl of noodles accompanied by a separate bowl of 6 wantons that roughly has a size of gyoza.
Great Combination of Sweet and Sour taste!

I like value sets! It's happy to know that they do offer value sets, so I could come back for a delicious and satisfying meal for a reasonable price! Besides the noodles and wanton, there's add ons for the meal, snacks like curry fishballs and air fried chicken wings with additional charges, of course! For the curry fishballs, the flavour of the fishballs could be more intense as it tasted rather bland; on the contrary, the air fried chicken wings were quite good, as the marination of the chicken were being soaked into the flesh sufficiently, with a god crisp of outer skin after being air-fried. 

 
I ordered Cranberry Chicken for my wonton fillings but the wontons seemed to be a bit overstuffed, as the fillings bursted out a little and the wonton looks a bit messy as if its leftover. Nevertheless, the deep fried cranberry wonton has really good taste and flavour, but the minced chicken fillings were a little bit dry, so I find it quite hard to chew. 

 
I would comment that the portion if the food is really satisfying in my opinion. It was a good place for birthday celebration for up to 30-40 pax, with a cozy environment and decent food.

Artsy Place with Good Food! Smile Jan 21, 2016

The hidden Gem resides in Kajang, and the cafe & bakery looks extremely attractive with the european style designs, emphasizing Tiffany blue as the main colour theme. It was stated in the name saying that it's eatery, bakery and zakka. Indeed, for crafty lovers, the place makes you feel artsy and definitely lightened your mood with the art and craft decorations, and guess what, the sells washi tapes as well!

In this cafe, each corner looks pretty cute, and this would be a highlight for people who loves to take pictures. Plus,no worries, you can always bring big groups of people here for celebrations or gatherings since the place is very spacious and thus allows a larger capacity to accomdate more people! As from what I heard, the place is also suitable for special occasions like baby shower, birthdays celebrations or even wedding luncheon and proposals!

 

 
We came here for a light brunch,but ended up with ordered quite a lot and we liked the food! We ordered hawaiian pizza, pesto pizza and caesar salad, and the portion was quite satisfying. The chicken slices on the salad was no doubtly quite a big piece, instead of small chunks, yeah, I like it that way. The pizzas were sliced to 6 pieces respectively, and it's perfect for sharing, otherwise, I would say the portion is more than enough for me! In fact, I do agree on the serving size or portion of the food, with the marvelous taste, I would say that it worth the price. 

 

 

 
I liked the flat white they served, it suits my preference for milky and creamy taste with slight bitterness. Everything they had, including the menus were well photographed and printed and were placed in a vintage box, making everything looked explicitly beautiful! Oh ya, besides hot cooking dishes, they also sell bake goods like breads and danish. 

 
After reading certain reviews and blogspots about the restaurant, I just found out that they serves good main courses, with a team of kitchen crews led by a South African chef, and the dishes were being prepared and plated aesthetically! I ignited my interest to revisit this place to try out the other items on the menu!
