Mini updates

I know i know my blog's so dead.

I've got a backlog of food pictures in my camera taken more than a week back but I've been to busy (more like lazy) to transfer and blog about it. Why oh why does assignments, exams and uni in general have to suck out all the life out of us T____T

Got an assignment (a darn boring one!!!) due this Friday which we've yet to properly start. Not a word has been typed so God help us! And final exams are drawing very near (i think 5 weeks!). D-DAY! :S

Had my dinner at 5pm today. It's almost 1am and my tummy's rumbling like no tomorrow :( I'm starving but there's nothing in my house which is interesting to eat :(

I'M CRAVING FOR SAUSAGE EGG MCMUFFIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *wails*

If only I had a doraemon with me! I'll be able to dig into that little pocket of his to satisfy my craving! :'(

Updates soon! Watch this spaceee!

Weekends pass too fasttttt

Mid terms are officially over woohoo! :D

And to treat myself, I bummed around and did absolutely nothing, not touching any of my books at all for the weekend! ;)

I can really only enjoy this weekend :(

I just realised I've got an assignment due end April which I've not yet started yet alone even properly read the question :S sigh. Why does deadlines after deadlines need to be met??!! *wailsss*

Well uni aside, had seafood dinner over at Bangsar Seafood Garden on Tuesday night after ages not walking into that place. Quite pricey okehh :P


I can see they're probably still in the CNY mood! 'like knock knock hello??!!'



But they've got pretty interiors and spacious place.



I was there ages ago, and one thing i vividly remember eating at that time was their fried squids which i recalled was absolutely delicious!! I told my dad 'WE MUST ORDER IT!' and we did! :D

Suffice to say, it was still DARN GOOD!

Yums!!

The waiter's recommendation which was delicious as well, especially the thai styled chicken!


The crabs were thumbs up as well!!! The colour of the crab looks weird here (must be the lousy lumix camera!!) but trust me, it tastes better than it looks! :D


I enjoyed this dish especially the gravy which was more like soup, having a sourish and tangy taste to it, my absolute fav!!


This was normal.. my dad always orders this whenever we go to chinese restaurants. It's either this or belacan kangkung =.=


We didn't have rice, so we decided to try out their udon noodles. I haven't had udon in ages so it was such a good choice! Good stuff! I had a huge prawnn :P


We were stuffed from dinner but well, everything savoury needs to be accompanied by something sweet right? HAHA.

So we tried their mango sago (i was too greedy i forgot to take a pic!) and their ice kacang.

Desserts were not bad but not fantastic. The best ice-kacang is still the one in Penang! :D

Good food but slightly pricey, so go with mummy and daddy! haha.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow's Sunday. Last day of the weekend :(

Classes resume on Monday again. Sigh, I don't wanna go backkkkkk!

If only I could just stay home, sleep and rot.

Such a foodie!

Hie me is back!! :D

Mid-sems tomorrow, and the rest of the week. :S LAW IS TAKING UP ALL MY MEMORY SPACE T__T

I felt so depressed when she told us it'was a closed book exam. Sighhh :(

Anyways, some overdue pics from my camera..in a span of 2 weeks XD

Finally managed to try My Elephant's lunch set with Ping on Friday :D
My Elephant is a Thai place serving well, obviously thai food located around Section 17. It's quite hidden so you will never find it unless someone brings u there! My friend was like... 'how do you even know this place exists??' HAHA. Hidden place = cheap rent i guess. LOL.

Had their thai laksa which was dam yummy!!!


And Ping had the fried rice which looked dam good! Taste also dam good!!! I was so tempted to try the belacan fried rice, but the thai laksa looked too good to resist. I need another visit there!!


They have set lunches on weekdays @ RM8.90 which comes with a drink, and a slice of watermelon. Pretty reasonable i must say with the portion and the quality of food. But ala carte dishes can be pretty pricey. Was there with my dad last Sunday and the bill came up to about RM54 for 2 of us with 3 dishes! :O

But I've to say the food is good, the tomyam was awesome!!!! Ahh!! I'll be back!


When my mum was away, my dad and I enjoyed to the max by indulging in good food! HAHA. Tony Roma's was one of them!

I had my all time favourite Tony's Asian salad! I can eat this everyday I wouldn't mind! :D


I told my dad to order the ribs but he didn't want to :( :( I love their ribs! But its always too expensive for me to pay :( :(
He settled for chicken instead!


Pretty good, much better than their quarter roasted chicken which I had the last time which was kinda bland. =/

We went for lunch on a weekday so we had their set lunch! Very reasonable as well. A drink with delicious soup and a main course only costs RM16.90++ onwards! Considering their portion it's very worth it. My dad loves that place haha. I do too!!!! :D


For the last night before my mum came back from her trip, we enjoyed to the max (again!) @ Sushi Zanmai!!! :D :D
My dad's fav place for Jap too! HAHA.

Ah!


This felt a bit funny after a few tastes =/


Vege tempura which was pretty good, but so not worth it!!!


This was the bomb!! :D

If i were to choose my fav Jap dish, it would be this!!!! Ahhhh the grilled eel with teriyaki sauce = HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 <3


Eel temaki!!!!
Wouldn't you believe that unagi is my fav now? Haha :P


But the eel temaki was crap that night tho. The seaweed was soft, felt like i was given leftover food :S

My dad never fails to order this dish!


Ain't that great, I find the prawns a bit soggy sometimes but it's passable :)

Food that night ain't as good as previous times we were there. :( I figure there were too many customers and they simply made the food! The business is so good it's crazy. We had to queue even on a weekday =.= I should perhaps open a jap restaurant chain someday which serves nice sushi at reasonable prices eh? since there's a market for it! :D Put my entrepreneurship skills to test :P

************************************************
A friend from Singapore that I met the last time I went for a holiday was down for the week! :) Met up with her and her sis for dinner over at the new Jade Pot outlet in OUG! Tried the outlet at Hartamas and I loved it so I was back for more! :D

The size of the OUG outlet is huge compared to the one in Hartamas which is tinyy! I think the OUG's size is 4 times of Hartamas :O

The lighting in this pic is so crap :( Sigh, i really want a new CANON cameraaaaa :p


Zess on the left and her sis on her right. Boy do I see their similarities now..they actually look very alike!! :O


Jade Pot was steamboat, no pictures to take. HAHA. But the food is good, albeit a bit pricey for steamboat..but we get freshly made fishballs which are YUMS!!! And their soup is so good you wanna drink every drop!! Felt a bit thirsty after (confirm MSG!) but well, too good to resist ;) They serve dimsum in the morning as well, so tempted to try!! Who's willing to bring meeeee? :D :D :D

Blogging about food makes me so excited! HAHA. I bet it'll be such a cool job to get paid to write reviews about nice places to eat and where to go for good food!! Dream job!! HAHA

Why am I studying accounting then?? *wails*

If I'm not studying accounting I won't have to sit for exams next week! *wails*

And I won't feel so stressed up! *wails*

Can't wait till exams are over! Enjoy for the weekend woohoo! :D

For now, I'm stuck with the books :'(

Food is comfort.

I've been out and about trying out new food these last couple of days :D

Finally tried Fong Lye @ Gardens. There's a perpetual queue most of the time. Had to wait almost 20 mins just for a table! It's amazing how we managed to wait this time considering the fact that we have always wanted to try it but we're always not bothered to wait XD

At least the wait was definitely worth it! The food is awesomeeee! :D
Probably explains the long queue ALL THE TIME!

Look..a pepper saucer!! HAHA how cute omgg!! I'was damm fascinated okeh.

My mum loved their teapot set. Really intricate detailing..looks like bone china!


There were five of us..we were so greedy that we ordered starters, and a main course set EACH! XD

This was something different from the ordinary :)


I loved their fried squids!!!!!! Tastes like the Shihlin Street Snacks fried chicken, but much tastier and with squid instead of chicken. AWESOME!


I had their Beef Noodles Soup..looked so tempting in the picture!


It came with side dishes @ RM19.80 ++

The fried wantan was fuuhhh! Huge prawns in it!! :D


My dad had their '5 types of wine' chicken.


Mum had soup noodles with fried chic cutlets since she doesn't take beef.


My uncle ordered this massive set @ RM29.80 ++



They are very generous with their ingredients and portions. This set is meant for one prolly for big eaters, but it can actually be shared between two. I doubt anybody can finish this without feeling over stuffed :X


Lil bro tried the chef's recommendation. It looks weird and mushy i know..but trust me, looks can be deceiving!

Also came with side dishes!

All sets comes with side dishes so it's actually quite a lot to consume. Confirm eat till full full!!

I tried all of the dishes..and ALL was good! Seriously, i think everything on the menu is good XD

Yes, too much food! HAHA too greedyyyy :P

The good food no doubt explains the long queue most of the time. Good good food!!!! I will be back Mr. Fong Lye! :D

Sets priced from RM19.80++ onwards.

Oooh, I just remembered we all even shared a dessert! Had their peanut shaved ice dessert :) (we devoured the dessert b4 i could snap a pic of it!)
I know it sounds dam weird, but my uncle wanted to be adventurous, and we placed our order late so that was the only one left! Thank God it was good! :D Something very rare (as far as i know). It's like eating iced peanut butter! Haha good thing, it wasn't too creamy and sweet. This dessert is a must-share. One person will die eating it alone! HAHA

I wanna go back soon!! Anybody?? :D

-----------------------------------------------------

My mum and the brat brother is enjoying in HK and China now. Sighh i feel so depressed..i also wan go!!! :(

To make up for it, my dad and I have been on the hunt for nice food HAHAHA. Eating expensive food for two people won't be so burdensome of the pocket compared to four ppl ya know :P

Had Thai@ My Elephant for lunch today. My 2nd time after like 2 yrs i think. Totally forgot about that place till my dad mentioned it today.

Best starters ever!!! Yums!


They only serve brown rice. Good for those health-conscious ppl like me HAHA! (yeah right)
Its exactly like the one i eat at home man XD But they charge RM3 per portion..a bit expensive for rice dontcha think??


The curry was very rich and aromatic, but a tad too creamy for my liking.


Thai food ain't complete without Tom Yam!
I ENJOYED IT SO MUCH I LITERALLY DID NOT LEAVE A SINGLE DROP OF SOUP IN THE BOWL! :D


Very generous with ingredient as well. All sorts of spices, serai, mint leaves..you name it, they have it!


Was stuffed after lunch. No Thai food for a month for me! My dad thought it was a bit pricey but at least, the food made up for it :)
They have set lunches on weekdays only at RM8.90 with drink, main course, dessert, and fruit!! So reasonable I must try it one day!!! :D

Blogging about food is soo fun HAHA makes my mouth water all the time :P

Another 3 days till my mum's back. I still got Tony Roma's and Sushi Zanmai to go to! :D
HAHAHA.

No class tomorrow yay! :D

Happy happy meeee!

On hiatus for too long

I know I've abandoned you, oh bloggie!

I just lost the urge to blog already. Haha.

Probably becos I'm too lazy and 'busy' and I haven't been doing anything interesting lately to share or post. LOL.

Finally handed up my 2nd assignment for this semester! :) Another one due month end and another in May but I shall worry about that later. Mid-sems in less than 2 weeks and I've barely started revising. And with my law subject being closed book = DIE. *gasps*

Sigh. This semester is such a killer. With an SX subject makes it all the worst..almost forgot about that one. Gee! Self-study and no tips. T__T

Got a call from the business dept a few days ago. They asked me whether i was plannin to transfer to UQ cos I'm eligible for their full scholarship. But I realise I'll still have to fork out quite a sum for my living expenses and all. They even said if i went they'll want me on their adverts! (i wonder if i get paid tsk tsk) HAHA. Oh and I'll have to complete another 3 subjects first that means I can only go next year in Feb. What am i gonna do whilst waiting???!! :S And worst, two subjects I'm doing now will be WASTED! :S

I'm so old already I cannot afford to waste time. I need to graduate!! XD

Haha. Okay I shall stop ranting. I'll take my rusty camera out tomorrow and take random photos to blog okeh? :D Before the camera goes on a holiday to Hong Kong + China with my mum.

I wanna go Hong Kong n China toooo! :( :( :(
