The best part is to digest all the fried and grilled food with Red Wine or White Grape Wine or even better, the cocktails such as Purple Rain, Green Jungle, Sparkling Beer. My personal favourite is the Purple Rain cocktail. In fact, I had so much cocktail that I had a little towards mid-day drunk.

There is also a whole range of Chinese tea to choose from such as Pu Er, Jasmine, Rose Tea and Wulong Tea.

Next to the tea section is the Milano Coffee Machine which one can make your own espresso, cappuccino, latte etc. The cappuccino is not bad when I tasted it. 

One highlight of Jogoya is the expensive ice-cream labels especially Haagen Daz and also New Zealand ice-cream where there are at least 8-10 flavours for each brand. I took tasted the Haagen Daz flavours which cost at least RM 10 per scoop outside : Macadaemia, Coffee, Raspberry, Rum and Raisin (the most popular which ran out 2 more customers took it), Chocolate. I also drizzled the chocolate sauce and also nuts on top. Later, I took the mango sorbet from the New Zealand range but did not take any photo of that because I only took a very small spoon of it.

There is a very wide range of desserts such as cakes, jellies and puddings and also Taiwanese desserts. 

So far I tried the Blueberry Cheese Mouse which was better than the one at Four Seasons Hotel in Langkawi. The Green Tea mouse was not bad too, so does the hazelnut mouse. But just ok, not that special, probably because I was so full to taste it properly. 

There was also a chocolate fountain for you to dip marshmallows inside it. I did not try this because I have tried this at Jogoya countless times. 

The Mochi Counter has a very wide array of mochi. However, I tried a few and found it too hard and not as soft as the original Taiwanese or Japanese version. In terms of filling, it is satisfactory but not overall taste due to the thick pastry, just pretty to the sight like a  pretty girl with less quality content. The mini chocolate and green tea mini mochi was the best of them all.

The Taiwanese Green Tea crispy egg roll was so-so. Unfortunately, after I came out of the washroom, the roll was a little soft, probably due to the wind. 

The Red Bean mooncake was a disappointment as there was not enough filling and too much flour. 

The Iced Mango Dumpling was just normal. Not something I would go for dessert. Too bland and plain. The outlook is creative though. I expected it to be very icy. It bears resemblance to ki chang (the Chinese Yellow Chang). 

There was also a place where one eat Tom Yam Goong or some sort of special soup shabu-shabu which can comprise of lamb, Japanese beef etc seafood but my stomach did not permit this to happen. 

The Pu Er and another type of tea pudding was tasty and soft. But bear in mind not to eat it after eating sweet stuff like ice-cream because the taste will be lost for sure. 

Mum and her classmate were so thirsty so they had ice-kacang with rum and raisin Haagen Daz ice-cream. I did not taste it but it looks tasty enough. I thought I wanted to save some room for more Haagen Daz or desserts.

I wanted to try the other Herbal Soup and also seafood soup but my heavy stomach told me to stop. After all, soup is something that fills the tummy up very fast. I did try the seafood chowder, a small spoonful of it as the result? Amazing! 

I had so much desserts that my mother stopped me from taking more in order not to waste food as I probably am too full to the brim. Perhaps let that be the menu for my next birthday meal? 

It is best to come to Jogoya with many friends so we could try many varieties and make the experience of trying food very fun! 

Figuring that some people do not like raw Japanese food, I decided to do another review specially for this group. 

One thing good about Jogoya is the personal cooking they provide for the Chinese, Dim Sum, Teppanyaki and Western spread where the cooking is done upon order made. We are given pegs which has our table numbers to be placed on the small glass bowls to signify we would that dish. 

One can order any seafood or even vegetables to be cooked specially by the chef. 

First up is steamed Alaskan Cod Fish which was amazingly succulent. It is cooked and served fresh whenever order is made. 

The steamed siakap is just so-so and the portion is too big, much bigger than the cod fish. In the past, there was the conventional steamed cod fish which is normally boneless compared to this one. 

The grilled lobster with a slab of greenish sauce on top is so-so. Though another customer said that it wasn't that fresh, to us, it was alright and quite succulent. 

The fried tempura and also shishamo (not sure of spelling) was amazing. Very crispy and the prawns fried just nice. Very tasty when dipped with the wasabi mayo or even the special tempura sauce with chopped radish. 

The Soft Shell Crab tempura was also wonderful. Very fres crab equals amazing tempura! 

The Fried Oyster with Omelette was done the way I liked it. The omelette was watery with a log of eggy feel. The oysters were also very fresh. The outcome, incredible! 

The Thai Coconut Drink was so refreshing that one of the aunties took two coconuts and our table finished about 4 coconuts alone! 

The only thing to avoid here is the Dim Sum corner. The Shanghai Dumpling was worse that the one at the kopitiam food court as the skin was too hard, thick and rubbery. I am embarassed they dare to call this dim sum. 

The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup of sea cucumber and also a lot of abalone was very clear and refreshing for the soul. 

The stir fried or even cheese escargots were a delight to the soul. I even regretted not taking second helpings aside from only one piece of it. 

The oyster in cheese, specially cooked by the Western Counter, was also not bad. But at that time my stomach was so bloated to fit any more cheese. 

The  Grilled Eel (Unagi) was very thinly cut and so delicious. 

The Grilled Saba was so-so but others would consider quite nice. I am not a fan of saba though. 

The Baked Dory Fish was overcooked and not tasty at all. 

I missed trying the many tong sui such as Chrysanthemum Tong Sui, Papaya and white fungus etc as I thought that is something my mother knows how to make. 

Sometimes on and off it is a must to come here. Buffet lunch at RM 88 on a Sunday seems fine, especially fro birthdays and special occasions. This time, I am lucky to get a birthday treat by my mother's classmates who came from Penang. 

WARNING: This is going to be quite long review for almost every dish in Jogoya buffet (except some 

Since there were five of us, the waitress gave us each a Japanese Plum Wine which we used to make a toast for my birthday with wishes of beauty and everything else good.

SASHIMI, SUSHI, RAW FOOD BUFFET: 

The first place to hit is definitely the sashimi and sushi buffet. There is myriad of fresh salmon, all very thick and juicy.

The fresh raw octopus were also a delight. I especially like the small plates of fresh oysters with a special green sauce and raw cabbage to eat together. I loved it so much so I took one plate for each of us. 

Luckily I did not take too many of the fresh oysters from the big shells as the one I tasted had some sand inside. Anyway, my mum's classmate, Cindy said that it was nice. I had mine with the Tabasco sauce and lemon. 

The crab was very fresh. Thank god mum was there to peel the crab for me. 

The abalone salad was also very tasty and all these seafood is the secret to Jogoya's success and popularity till today. 

The Capracio Salmon, lightly smoked is amazing and freshness is a quality we like here. 

The humongous raw scallop with some light sauce is so amazing. Definitely one that every scallop lover would sing praises of. 

The raw lobster with mayo was also fantastic, though a bit to the cheesy side. 

The raw seaweed and fake shark's fin are my favourites in every Japanese restaurant. the raw ebi salad with mango pieces was also a great combination. 

The egg in a mini jug was something that we did not know how to eat though great for pictures. So I would not be able to judge it for you as I am not really a fan of eggs. 

I would say that even eating at the sashimi platter alone is more than enough at Jogoya. 

My friend told me there is a place that sells delicious and original Penang food. Me being the skeptical Penangite who has been deceived so many times in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor touting original Penang food, found it hard to believe my friend. I told my friend that I will only step into this café and become the guinea pig if he gives me something in return. 
When I glanced through the menu, the sight of the photos of the most famous hawkers in Penang for each food item was unbelievable. The wall is full of road signboards showing the origin of each food item sold there. Postered on the wall were signboards of Lebuh Cecil’s Duck Meat Koay Teow Thing, Kampung Jawa Char Koay Teow, Lorong Selamat Laksa etc.
There were two televisions in the Bandar Puteri Puchong HQ branch, televising videos of the hawkers who cook the food in Penang. Seeing the video alone is already tantalizing enough.
The Kampung Jawa Char Koay Teow is so tasty. My friend said that the prawns were so big and succulent, the crunchiest prawn he has ever tasted in his entire life! There were about 2-3 big prawns for this plate, costing RM 9.50. The bean sprouts, were very fat and fresh and I have never tasted fat springy bean sprouts in KL. I later found out from the founder and General Manager, Gary Teoh that he actually had the bean sprouts imported from Ipoh! I guess nothing beats Ipoh home grown bean sprouts! I find the cockles a bit too small, and not as fresh as the ones we normally have at the conventional hawker stall, probably because they were imported from Penang as I soon found out. The egg, I admit, for the first time in my lifetime of eating Char Koay Teow eggs, is fried just the way I like it, not overfried, and not fried till black. In fact, the char koay teow egg beats the one I had in Penang and I am not ashamed to say that.
The Siamese Laksa (RM 9.50) is the tastiest Siamese Laksa I have ever tried in my whole life, even compared to the one I had in Penang and Thailand! I cannot even imagine myself, a Penangite saying that (Pardon me, my fellow Penangites!) There was a whole piece of sardine fish on top of the laksa. The laksa is not too watery like the one I had in Pulau Tikus which is even made by a Thai lady and another one made by a Chinese lady. The gravy is very thick and satisfying.
The only let-down I had was the Hokkien Dumpling (Bak-chang) for RM 5.90 where the glutinous rice was too soggy and soft, overcooked in a sense. The boss, told me that the Golden Chang is better. Probably I was not good enough a judge as pork is not my top list of favourites. However, the price is quite worth if for the amount of ingredients inside.
I totally love the ice-blended Peach Tea (RM 5.80). Although quite sweet, when drinking using the straw through the bubbles, the feeling is refreshing.
The ice-cucumber jasmine tea (RM 5.80) is just normal, probably because I was comparing with Padi House at Setia Walk’s cucumber juice and I expected cucumber juice. But I would rather blame my too flavor-demanding tongue and not the drink. Considerably, when all the ice has melted, I could finally taste the German Jasmine tea used. The boss, Gary explained that he used the finest jasmine tea, a brand called Naturalis. He dared not use too fragrant jasmine tea which he is not sure of the origin and which chemical was used to maintain the fragrance.
After succeeding in finding the best Char Koay Teow and Siamese Laksa in the whole Malaysia, I sat down and spoke to the friendly General Manager, Gary. You can read about my interview with him in my blog, at catherineseeyenleng.blogspot.com

This is my favourite restaurant at Citta Mall ever since the first time I set foot here and tasted the best grilled salmon and salad in the world and always loved the cosy place for hang out especially for studying, research and business appointments. The design is simple but the ambience is fantastic. 

Today we happen to come here for a movie, the first screening of the much-awaited movie, Maleficent, since we are early, I decided to eat here since I have tried most of the other places. 

Since we are on a budget, we ordered a big flat traditional Italian Chicken and Mushroom pizza. The fungi is so fresh and big whereas the chicken meat is tender and fresh too. The cheese is very delicious and you can feel the high quality in the cheese. The best part is the pizza for two cost merely RM 19.50! 

We also ordered the Butterscotch Latte which is the best latte I ever had in ages and the most reasonably priced compared to places like Starbucks etc. Too bad the design on the froth is not properly done otherwise it would have been perfect. 

Here, everything is self-service and you have to order at the cashier but the waitress will serve us the food. The water is free flow which is better than some fancy restaurants which charge RM 1 for a plain glass of water.
