Relaxation with Caramel Macchiato Smile Aug 08, 2013

Caramel Macchiato is by far my only favourite beverage in any Starbucks Coffee outlets. Of the numerous outlets available within Subang Jaya or Bandar Sunway, I went to the one at Taylor's University because I was just staying around the area. Although this outlet has always been popular only among the students in the campus, the services provided are still good. It is a great place for revisions as well!

Anyway, Starbucks Coffee has stated that Caramel Macchiato is "freshly steamed milk with vanilla-flavored syrup, marked with espresso and finished with caramel sauce". I could hardly explain why I love this cup of coffee among the plenty of beverages available in the outlet. It was introduced to me by a girl friend of mine who happened to be a frequent customer of Starbucks Coffee, when I was still new to Starbucks Coffee. Perhaps it's the light coffee taste that attracts me, or is it the caramel? Also, whenever I asked for extra caramel, the staffs will generously add more caramel for me.

lol

Ribena Blended. Kah Mun ordered a cup of RM8.00 worth of Ribena Blended. It tasted like overpriced, sweetened Ribena, to be honest, but it sort of saved my life after I finished my cup of drink, just because I was too thirsty and I was too bloated to order another cup of drink.

 
Teh Tarik. This was mine. Personally, I thought it was a good cup of Teh Tarik, although I repeatedly became thirsty after a few minutes. It wasn’t too sweet, and it wasn’t anywhere close to tasteless either.

 
Triple H. Four of us ordered this sandwich and shared. Yes, it was a sandwich wrapped with a piece of fried egg, and it was filled with chicken meat. It may sound very ordinary and easy to be made. Still, I thought it was worth the price for its uniqueness. Or maybe not. The fragrance of the egg was really good, to the extent that we couldn’t help but to finish it before our own spaghetti were even ready to be served.

 
Carbonara Chicken Turkey Ham Spaghetti. This was my spaghetti, cooked together with classic bacon and egg with turkey ham in a super creamy sauce. Certainly, you can always choose between turkey ham, meatballs, or smoked duck. Compare it with the cup of Teh Tarik and imagine the size of the spaghetti!

One thing to be mentioned though, was their funny services. Rou Han ordered Olive Garlic Pasta with Beef, whereas my order was Carbonara Chicken Turkey Ham Spaghetti. The waiter actually reconfirmed our order prior to placing it at the counter. Yet, when the food was served, they got confused. They served me with beef and they served Rou Han with turkey ham. Hm.

My girls and I went all the way to SS 15 for this bowl of Pork Noodles with Soup just because Ezy was highly recommending it.

Honestly, I never loved Pork Noodles because of the strong taste, until I tried the one at Ooi Noodle House. I’m not quite sure how the boss cooks the soup, but I thought the smell was really good. I didn’t add an egg for my bowl of noodles because Ezy said it wouldn’t taste the same. It would no longer be original. I asked one without any pork intestines and whatnot because I never eat those.

Anyway, it’s really highly recommended like what I was told! There’s no heavy, smelly taste, but the broth was unexplainably good. So heavenly good especially for pork lovers! Priced at RM6.00, the standard was way more than what I expected, so it’s pretty fine.

By the way, during my visit, only this particular stall was opened while the others were closed, yet the restaurant was still filled with people eating food served from the same stall. Imagine it!

Before Nadeje finally opened its outlet in Petaling Jaya, I had been trying different types of Original Mille Crepe from one place to another, and I concluded that Arthur's Hokkaido Mille Crepe Cake served the best one among all. Or should I say that its Original Mille Crepe is the only edible one compared to all that I have tried? Ever since I visited Nadeje, I now have two options for a piece of Original Mille Crepe!

 

 
As I put a mouthful of my Original Mille Crepe into my mouth, I could instantly feel the many layers of the cake, and I immediately fell in love in the cake. However, a layer of sugar was added on top, making it slightly too sweet for my liking. It’s actually the texture that I like, whereas for the one available at Arthur's Hokkaido Mille Crepe Cake, it’s the taste that attracts me.

 
Don, who always loves to be adventurous, had their Cheese Mille Crepe. Personally, I wouldn’t even recommend this because I would only go for Original Mille Crepe, but Don said that it was good. The feeling was there, and it has very strong smell of cheese.

 
We shared a cup of Iced Hazelnut Café at RM8.80. It literally burned a big hole in our pocket. I wouldn’t think it was worth the price, since it was merely okay as a cup of coffee.

During our visit, we had to queue for quite a while since it was a Sunday. The shop wasn’t spacious, so it was quite pack, and the tables available indoor are very limited. We eventually had to sit outside and dealt with the cigarette smell and hot weather. Hence, if you hate to be in such situation, I would suggest you to bring it back home and enjoy it in a better environment, unless if you’re lucky enough to grab a seat in the shop itself. Price wise, the cakes were priced similarly to the other competitors so I was fine with it.

The enterprise group, Watami Co., Ltd., was developed in 1984 and was listed on the Japan Exchange in March 2000. The core service of Watami group is in food service business. Besides, it is aggressively challenging to different areas of business such as "Agriculture", "Environment", "Education", and "Nursing home". More than 600 restaurants were developed in Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Shenzhen and Shanghai up to date. Each brand has its own characteristics to provide the multiplex choice for the customer.

Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant is a new type of tavern that concentrates on providing food with less emphasis on alcohol at affordable prices. It serves delicious Japanese food and drinks in a comfortable atmosphere. The dining environment is good for causal gathering and family. – Copied and edited from Watami Malaysia (http://www.watami.com.my/)

It wasn't really our first experience at Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant. We had our first try at One Utama Shopping Centre, and it was good although slightly overpriced.
Hot Green Tea

As usual, a cup of Hot Green Tea would be the best drink to go along with Japanese cuisine. Don had Iced Green Tea instead, and both were refillable.

Thanks to Don for ordering their Zaru Soba, which is literally cold soba, it was exactly when I changed my impression on soba. Since young, I used to consider it as a weird dish with funny taste and I dared not try it, only to realize that I was totally wrong all the while. Dip the soba into the sauce and eat it right away, I'm sure you will be amazed by such delicacy.
Salmon Sushi Don

According to him, as I never eat sashimi, the Salmon Sushi Don was a "thumbs up", while I would only prefer their Tamago Yaki, the egg rolls on the side.

I had my Eel Pot Rice, or Unagi Kamameshi, with an additional Fresh Egg. I loved it, although the process was threatening. I have mentioned that I was in hunger before settling down at Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant. When I placed my order, I was informed that I had to wait for 3 minutes before I could start eating my food, and I agreed. Apparently, the time I had to wait for my meal to be cooked was way more than merely 3 minutes! I felt cheated.

Still, it is recommendable if you do not mind having sticky rice, which is my favorite of all time. I did not regret adding the Fresh Egg right before it was completely cooked. The great smell of egg was just irresistible!

Priced at approximately RM41.50 per person, it had burnt a hole in his wallet. Despite so, I will still be sure to return occasionally. Ah, their Zaru Soba! lol
