Best Dessert, Ever  Smile Nov 23, 2013

NOSH, a fairly new cafe in Bangsar Telawi area that has gained tremendous popularity. Yes, for their desserts. NOSH is the brainchild of two ladies (which I later found out that she is one of our classmate's mum's friend) so yay for girl power!

 
There's actually two menus in NOSH, their regular food & drinks menu, and their desserts menu. We have been to Three Little Pigs and Yeast before we set foot into NOSH so (naturally), we went for their desserts menu.

 
Nosh has a classy and clean cut interior, with a neat and spacious layout. Look around and you will find quirky furniture. Such as the unique clock hanging on the wall, or the handle of the toilet, which is actually a frying pan attached to a wooden board.

 
Quirky little wall clock!
We arrived at NOSH at around 3pm and we were the only customer there. Probably because it was a weekday and Malaysia has this norm of having desserts only at night. Our order arrived quite fast thanks to that.

Berry Harvest (Left) & Caramelized Pumpkin Panna Cotta (Right) RM29 for two desserts

 
Berry Harvest features a combination of tart berries spiced up with Grand Marnier, rich custard cream, fragrant green tea and white chocolate
The Caramelized Pumpkin Panna Cotta on the other hand, features a creamy pumpkin panna cotta topped with burnt caramel and Andlaise sauce, on a bed of buttery Pecan Walnut crumble

 
The body of Berry Harvest was smooth and refreshing. A little hint of sourness, paired with a fruity sweetness that is just nice, not too overwhelming, further enhanced by the milky white chocolate. The green tea cake base gives the whole dessert a slight bitter aftertaste. Bittersweet. This whole dessert had a sophisticated twist, but it all turns out well, perfect and balanced.

As a fan of pumpkin, the Pumpkin Panna Cotta immediately won my heart. Not just because of its subtle, sweet pumpkin taste (though I must admit, the pumpkin taste clearly is a win in this!). The texture of the panna cotta was light, fluffy and smooth as satin, a contrast to the crunchy butter pecan crumble base which was insanely addictive. The smooth Andlaise sauce complements the whole dessert perfectly. Perfectly. (I had to say it twice to emphasize how perfect this dessert was). The combination was simply brilliant.

Kinoko Gohan Burger Smile Oct 31, 2013   (Related Review)

Kinoko Gohan Burger (RM17 for Pork RM19 for beef)
Short grained rice patty,
I went all "awww" when the burger arrived. It looked so cute! Like a sushi. Or am I the only one who thinks this way?
This was my dad's order. He opted for Beef patty.
The beef patty was really juicy. The juice came oozing out with a bite. It was very well-marinated. The rice patty was really something new to me. It was slightly burnt on top to give the patty a crisp and aroma. Oh no worries the patty wasn't hard at all! It was done to the perfect amount of tenderness. Or hardness. I was amazed and I wonder how did they manage to stick the grains together. Am also awestruck, how this whole burger come together so wonderfully. My dad just gave me a smaaaaaallll portion of his burger but I addiction kicked in with a bite. I sooo wished that I had ordered this burger instead =(

This burger is for the win.

Somehow I felt as if I was eating a fusion sushi when I was eating this burger too =P You know, those sushi roll you get from sushi zanmai?

Glorious Burgers Smile Oct 31, 2013

The Grind Burger Bar. Another addition of the burger joint to the burger-saturated Klang Valley (my burgerlab, Big Chomp Burger, Burgertory are a few examples)

 
We arrived at The Grind at about 2.30pm. The burger joint was quite empty, only a few seats were occupied. My mum was quite shock as during their previous visit (WITHOUT ME SOBS), they had to take a number and line up for a table! The friendly staffs then told us their kitchen closes at 3pm! But nevertheless, they still welcomed us in so yay for good service! lol

 
The Grind Burger Bar has a long communal bar table! Well it's a burger BAR after all! Geddit? ;P

The Grind Burger Bar has a rustic yet sleek interior. One side of the restaurant is painted grey, while the other side is a panel of red bricks. Vintage paintings and poster were plastered on the walls, giving the restaurant a hip and unique vibe.

The Grind Burger Bar also adapted the open kitchen concept, where curious diners get to observe how the burgers at The Grind Burger Bar were grind to perfection.

 
Their menu was really simple. It was printed on a piece of brown paper & laminated.
The Grind BURGER Bar also serves Hot Dogs, Meatballs and Spaghetti to cater for all different preferences of taste buds. But we all decided to go for their forte BURGERSSSS.

 
Their drinks and side order menu were on the flip side on the paper.
Despite the simple menu, The Grind Burger Bar has their own way of spicing up their menu. Notice the quirky names they give to their drinks. Brown Cow. White Cow. It tempts me to order em heh. And because The Grind Burger Bar is a Bar, they also serve alcohol! lol (Jeez, what's with me trying to create puns in this blog post)

 

 
Hono'lulu Burger (RM17 pork, RM19 beef)
Pork/Beef Patty, Grilled Pineapples, melted cheddar, crisp green, onions, fresh tomatoes and mayo
This was my mum order. She opted for pork patty. The burger was pretty simple but it won my heart. The ingredients compliments each other perfectly. The thick, juicy patty, paired up with the creamy melted cheese, tangy mayo and sweet pineapple created a memorable taste.

Unlike most burger joint, The Grind Burger Bar layer their patty in between two buttery aromatic brioche bun. The brioche bun was lightly toasted and buttered to enhance its taste. It was crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy in the inside. Thumbs up for their buns!

Oh and notice the huge stack of herbed fries behind the burger. Yeah, The Grind Burger Bar is definitely generous on their fries. Their thick cut fries were pretty decent. Seasoned lightly with herbs and spice, it goes really well with their homemade special sauce which tasted quite similar to my burgerlab's. I prefer my burgerlab's fries over the fries served here, but personally I preferred The Grind's special dipping sauce over burgerlab's.

All burgers are served with a small side of greens and large side of herbed fries.

Waffles + Chocolate Ice-cream + Chocolate Sauce + Whipped Cream, RM10.90

Banana and chocolate have always been my favorite combination in desserts. The chocolate sauce and whipped cream compliments the waffles perfectly. The warmth of the soft waffles melts the ice-cream, giving it an extra chocolate-y bite.

Waffle cravings sastified and we will be back for more =)

HERB FRIES Smile Oct 17, 2013   (Related Review)

Fries + Dipping Sauce
You can never leave burger lab without ordering their fries. NEVER. These thick yet fluffy fries are seasoned with a dash of salt & pepper and rosemary. WARNING: IT IS REALLY ADDICTIVE! Extra credit is given to their special in-house dipping sauce. We asked for extra as it was too addictive and we can't stop dipping our fries in it! =p It tasted a little spicy with some tanginess- lovely
