Random: Long Long Roti Tissue

IMG_0416 Recently I had a meet up with my Godparent’s child, my Godbrother la in a way. So, we had supper. And we had roti tissue.

Tapas Bistro and Bar, Micasa All Suite Hotel

So, my life has been all about Eating recently. My cousin told me yesterday, “You only have 1 life to be fat”. Ohhkay, fine. But not toooo fat. Recently, I was invited to Tapas Bistro and Bar at Micasa All Suite Hotel courtesy of I LOVE DISCOUNTS and mann, that place is rocking awesome. I mean it’s just so cozy. If it was earlier, I think the pool view has been awesome. Not that I am perverted.DSC_1270 Dim romantic lightings brings the best out of the place. Not too dim though, just nice for a good dinner with family for chats and hang outs.DSC_1271 They have a bar in the centre too. I don’t drink. Not commenting.DSC_1277 Food arrived, at the Director of Sales Ms Pamela actually served us. Not really served, but I love her hospitality.DSC_1317 So, I don’t know why pictures of me eating always get into action. Makes me look extremely fat and it makes me look like I glutton. But repeat with me, “You only have 1 life to get fat”DSC_1323 DSC_1333 Great talk across the table with lil background light music for our entertainment.DSC_1337 Okay, I admit I gluttoned. But the beef burger thingy was awesomesauce.DSC_1340 The fries are actually made of real potatoes – thick, long, crispy. No, not what you are thinking.DSC_1342 Awesome ambience with tidy decoration.DSC_1345Asian Delights: Char Kuey Teow.DSC_1288 The portion was really good. It was tasty in it’s own unique way with prawns and some sotong in it. It’s no ordinary Char Kuey Teow by the roadside. Asian Delights: Claypot Yee Mee It actually tastes really good. It’s really Asian. You get mushrooms, sotong, eggs, prawns (and ginger). LOL.DSC_1289 DSC_1292 DSC_1295 This is TAPAS, their specialty and unique food. Dip it with the special bread and it tastes really good. It wasn’t at all oily (though it looks like it) and it’s really light.DSC_1298 DSC_1299 Asian Delights: Nasi Lemak. Awesome good stuffs. You get more than the “biasa” – prawns, kangkung, rendang. But this is really good stuffs. I think I loved this the most. It’s really good and filling for one meal. :)DSC_1303 DSC_1305 Hello Tomato Meatballs. You were more than awesome. Tender, soft and chewy. Though I did think your balls came a little to big for my one bite mouth! 😛DSC_1306 Western Delights: Beef Burger. I was too full when this came out, but you need to know I ate. Don’t judge me! 😛 And the patty was made by the store itself. I like the tenderness of the patty and how one mouth can’t bite the bun, egg, patty and garnishing in it. And not forgetting the fries, if you always think those small tiny fries are not your thing, this IS your thing!DSC_1319 DSC_1321So, all in all, it’s a place you and me should go. Hangout together. Take a chat. Catchup and Crap.

All this week in I LOVE DISCOUNTS you get a special deal of more than 40% at such a classy restaurant. Bring as many friends or your family there during the weekends. It is more than a great treat for your loved ones. It’s impressive and I think you should take a meal there. ___________________________________________________________________________ Address: 368-B Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Perseketuan.

Swan Lake Korean Restaurant, Sri Petaling

So, I was thinking as to what to write or blog about since I’ve numerous pending posts. I know, it doesn’t sound too good on me. This is a restaurant located at Sri Petaling, the new area where the hype is starting to build up – Swan Lake Korean Restaurant.DSC_1232This place has very traditional and unique architecture; though it does not have the capacity to be a boutique restaurant yet. But that was what I felt when I entered. DSC_1233 See, I told you that my psychic mind tells me their original plan was to make it a boutique restaurant. I like the unique floorings. I am weird.DSC_1234 This place is excellent for hang out. It’s spacious, it’s cozy and it’s like a place where people can chill, scream and even do what they want lah. 😛DSC_1238 If you think this place can easily be packed, no way. It’s huge.DSC_1239 DSC_1241 Here’s the food shots for this restaurant. I’d say it tastes pretty weird. But I gotta confess; I AM NO FAN OF KOREAN FOOD. So, I’d think the mentions below are based on my jurisdiction. If it tastes worst than what I wrote, forgive me. If it tastes better than what I wrote, then good for you lah! HahaDSC_1251 This is a kind of Korean BBQ Meat. On my first bite, I thought it smell weird (I AM WEIRD). But on my consecutive few rounds, I thought it tastes really good. You know those rendang meat? The meat does feel like those. On my last few bites, I prolly got the fatter meat, so I wasn’t too keen. But I like the onion and the way it is served though. Hot and sizzling. 😀DSC_1374 DSC_1379 Don’t be deceived, the picture below is a picture which has not been cooked. It was for illustration purposes only. I personally like the dishes in the hot pot, but not the prawns obviously. I am no fan of seafood, if you’ve not noticed.DSC_1385 I feel like a star when a picture of mine is snapped #randomDSC_1393 DSC_1399 Ohai, by the way, this is XIANG. The blogger who went with me for this food tasting.DSC_1400 I can’t remember if it was my first bite, middle bite, or last bites. I do look bored and I do look like a kid playing with food. But hey, life is meant to be enjoyed, no?DSC_1415 DSC_1417 Welcome to the life of a 12 year old. :))DSC_1423 This is the porridge hot pot. Not a big fan of porridge but I have to admit that the porridge really had the taste of the dishes in it. The prawns, mushrooms and all really made the porridge tastes good. Well, who ever didn’t know that putting prawns and all into a porridge of soup makes it tastes good kan?DSC_1434 DSC_1435 I like this soup. It tastes a bit like Maggi Sup, but the stuffs inside is wayyyy better than Maggi Soup. This is no cheap stuffs. Oh, I like it boiling. It kinda gets me going cause it makes me feel hawt! 😛DSC_1441 They have some red dates in it to get the whole thing going too. I like those red dates. Who doesn’t? 😛DSC_1443 DSC_1445 DSC_1446 DSC_1451 DSC_1452 DSC_1454 DSC_1455 It was crazily frigging hot and the photographer chose to take this picture. No, I’m not afraid of it being spicy. DSC_1473 DSC_1474 DSC_1475 See, we were both slurping soup. The soup was undeniably quite nice.DSC_1482 DSC_1489 DSC_1490 This was the porridge version of it. I know it doesn’t look as appetising as it should be, but it still does have good stuffs in it.DSC_1493 Oh, I like the Blueberry drink. Or was it blackberry. Either way, some sort of berry juice turns me on. Haha. Kidding. 😛DSC_1495 DSC_1503 Well, it’s worth a try. I won’t say it is extremely fantatatastic. But if you are looking for a chillout place, a Korean Chinese Restaurant, a convenient and spacious area, consider this place. ___________________________________________________________________________ Address: 125 Jalan Radin Bagus, Bandar Baru Seri Petaling, Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Perseketuan.

Golden Palm Tree Sea Villas & Spa, Sepang Gold Coast

Here’s the great thing about writing blogs. I won a 2 Days 1 Night stay at Golden Palm Tree Sea Villas & Spa by writing this. It was an unexpected victory but it made me feel good. IMG_1692 The place I was given a night stay was actually worth RM 599 a night for two. But I’ve to say the view was magnificent and beyond words. So, I thought I’d head down with my family for a quick weekend getaway since it was school holidays and it was a Sunday – Monday where I don’t have classes on Monday.IMG_1693 So, we definitely went for a quick swim and just rock and roll. But my skin get crinkled too fast so I went off to take a quick shower first and took some pictures!IMG_1694 Can’t you see the genuine smile? ;pIMG_1696 No, no. I am not vain. Not at all.IMG_1697 IMG_1698 I don’t know what my brother was trying to pose. But yeah …IMG_1701 Sister. 😉IMG_1702 The view from where I was sitting. It looks so good. It’s like the suites wee all built above waters and they have approx 900 rooms there. I am impressed.IMG_1704 A view from my room to the beach. The beach was busy and it wasn’t too bad!IMG_1706 I don’t know how the idea of “taking-a-picture-of-my-feet” came about; but my feet looks good what!!?!?!?IMG_1707 Another poserr!IMG_1709 Opps, you saw that iPhone. Yes, your tweet replies for me was all about being JEALOUS! But seriously, it was friggin’ good that it’s worth a tweet!IMG_1712 IMG_1713 See, see, this was from my room. And it was fantastic.IMG_1714 The room was huge enough for all 5 of us with a cozy sofa, 2 beds, Internet connection, Astro flat screen TV, huge toilet / bathrooms, Oh, if you were following my tweets, I actually talked about the bathing area where everyone can see everyone, if you don’t close the blind la!IMG_1715 So many things can be done on the flooor woot!IMG_1716 So here’s the thing. I was too busy eating and was too hungry that I told myself to screw pictures. We drove about 30 minutes out from the hotel to Tanjung Sepat food good food. Seafood, to be exact.IMG_1718 IMG_1719 IMG_1720 Coincidentally, my mum’s colleague was back in her hometown, Tanjung Sepat. So, she brought us out.IMG_1721 See that Claypot Curry thingy? I love that most!IMG_1723Yes, only crazy shots of this guy will appear here. Decent shots of him will never appear in my blog!IMG_1724So, this is one amazing trip. I wanna stay in hotels, like, forever. I mean. For real. It’s amazing the services and the convenience you get. Don’t remind me of the price. ___________________________________________________________________________ Address: Sepang Goldcoast, No. 67 Jalan Pantai Bagan Lalang | Kg.
