A place that decorated uniquely; part of the wall coated in orangey and plastered with number plates. And best of all, it is a great place for a little gathering and get-together with friends and family.

Zhen Liew Siang (Lau Heong) @ Sentul Raya, KL

I love food-exploring with them.
Together with Chris&Christine and WenChing, we were brought to Zhen Liew Siang (Lau Heong) by Citygal for some real Chinese food that prepared with real wok hei.

Nam Yu Fried Chicken
This is the must have item. The chicken wings were perfectly fried to golden brown and crispy-ly with a distinctive taste of fermented bean curd (Nam Yu). Crispy on the outside and juicy in the inside. A fingers-licking-good item!

Sizzling Calamari (sotong) on Hot Plate
Calamari came drench with buttery sauce and served on a banana leaf on a hotplate. Yum

"Siong Tong Lala" Clams in Broth
Packed with spices and herbal taste of wolfberries, garlic slices and cili padi. This one was kinda hot as they added too much garlic slices into it. Definitely a great one to warm your tummy.

La Bodega @ Pavilion KL

Hola!~
It's happy hour time + a lil' birthday celebration for the birthday gal.
I love happy hour with friendsl a glass or two to go with some tapas or snack bites while avoiding the massive traffic jam during the after-working-hours.

Since it was also a birthday celebration, the birthday gal wanted a Spanish fix and we were brought to here - La Bodega, Pavilion KL

A jug of House Sangria (RM 50/jug)
The very very very very mild red wine with fruity taste; Cheers Cheers!

Salchichas al Diablo (small - RM 13)
Spicy chicken sausage sauteed with onions, chilli and tomato.
This one was very tasty. The sauce was infused with lots of spices, herbs and chilli. Hmmm, just can't help mopping up the sauce with the complementary bread.

Gambas a la plancha (small - RM 24)
Tiger prawns sauteed with chilli and garlic and olive oil. 
Haha, I actually fancied the fragrant garlic slices in it.

Kedai Kopi Hai Peng @ Kemaman + What to do in Kemaman?!

DSC_1242

Yum Zhou Char 喝早茶 
Morning tea (or coffee/kopi) is a habit to us; a cup of hot tea or coffee with a packet of nasi lemak or kuih. That satisfy ones tummy.


***


My aunts love hunting for food. When we were in Kemaman for a short break last year, we never really stayed in the rooms but went out early in the morning for breakfast, lunch, hi tea, jalan-jalan and back after dinner. Back after dinner was considered very early for them (as there isn't much to do in Kemaman. If you happened to follow them to BKK, gosh... We would only go back to our rooms at 1am), we then bought some snack (eg: satay) back to our rooms, tv-ed and supper.

One morning, we woke up early for this - Hai Peng Kopitiam

Very well known kopitiam; it was crowded in the morning and we had to fight for seats.

St. Patrick's Festival @ Fitou Brasserie, Desa Park City

There isn't any public holiday in March, but this wouldn't stop us from partying. 
And yes, this month, we have a-month-long celebration and party together with good friends, enjoying the scrumptious food and pints of Guinness!

A-month-long celebration from 1st March 2011 to 31st March 2011, that's the reason for happy-hour-ing and partying and enjoy the fun with all the people around. Thanks to the invitation from Fitou Brasserie, together with Chris&Christine and Citygal, we had an early Saint Patrick's Day Celebration here!

Irish Beef Stew with Guinness served with Carrots and Potatoes. 
Soft beef stew infused with stout beer. I wasn't able to try out how great it is. But according to them, it was flavoursome. I tried the gravy with the help of bread, Yummm, just can't help mopping  up the gravy.
