>Ying Ker Lou, Hakka Restaurant

>I’m feeling so miserable….don’t really know how to resume my blog posting….guess I must be too bored this time around…

Okay…no matter how, I guess I’ll still have to post something so that I can clear some of my back logs…

Ying Ker Lou, a Hakka Restaurant at the Curve…is I went to recently with my mom, sis and cousin brother…. The food there not bad…boleh tahan can! We ordered some very home style feel dishes….

I had this at home quite often…but wanna try others cook…

Taste not bad…can match with my home one….lol..but as you can see…the name of the dish is very long…ouchh..

Then here come this…something very normal to most of us….

This one not so good…as I can taste any of the squid at all…and the pork doesn’t taste enough salty….so…it’s a no no…meaning…my home one still the best…LoL!!!

Next…fried egg…quite popular among the mixed rice stall…^_____^”‘

We had brinjal…but don’t know why…the naming don’t have any word of it mentioned….???

The taste of the above all were above average standard….so you can try. Only one weird thing was that my cousin didn’t want to eat any of those…..sigh…nowadays seems like so hard to please kids….so we ordered this for him lor…

Lucky the taste of this salty chicken was good…otherwise…don’t know what to order for my cousin….

I’m rating the food of this restaurant above moderate as of this moment with the little dishes that I tried. The taste of all the dishes almost can match with my home cook one….but one thing on the downside which cause the rating to be above average is that…the pricing…a little over price…(i.e. Pork slice cause me RM25 ler)

>Befdey at Bubba Gump

>I already said it only takes a while right….so…here it is, last month, we celebrated birthday with CK and Quek at the Bubba Gump Shrimp Co, at The Curve.

That day I was late due to office workload…so the moment I arrived…food was served and they started eating…so I left no choice but to snap only these 2 untouched item…which the latter was my order….

I always said the food there was fresh and nice….worth a while dining in there…

If birthday was about eating only…then we won’t have the right point and reason to gather right..??? So…we did chit chatting and of course…not missing out…cam whoring time!!!

Some random photos that we tooked…

This was the best among of all the photos taken with a compact digital camera….why? Cause we took it by our own…LoL!!!

This was the only photo that I took with the birthday girl…though with Ah Tee inside the pic….you can just ignore him…(or maybe I should just censor his whole face huh….LoL!!!)

Indeed this pic proved that he was having a great time….

Does this looks like War of Gender??? LoL!!!

Hehehe!!! No lar….just kidding…

We’re all happy can?!

It’s time to do the real job….

They indeed enjoyed a lot…and of course with the unexpected guesses as well….we celebrated together….and it looks like they’re more happening with more young and beautiful ladies…*ahem*

Okie lar…finally…the cake was presented to them…“Blow the candles harder as there’s too much of it!”…..LoL!!!

Yay!!!….Can’t wait…Tomorrow is the day…the day long wait…I’m so hyper excited…why? Will tell you the whole story when I got back….

>The Apartment

>Okay…long time didn’t post anything…where should I start after the head-off from the previous post….Hmmm….alright…it all started here….
Last week…around Tuesday…I received a text message in Facebook regarding an invitation to a surprise birthday party. Venue and time were yet to be confirmed. Then I suggested to have it at Bubba Gump, The Curve. But due to some reservation error, I still doubt that we left no choice but to fall back to the other so called alternatives, The Apartment. Why it’s so? First hand I got to know about this Apartment gonna be one of the choice, I quickly Google around to know more about it. Aha! It’s here…ermm…reading here and there on a couples of blog….OMG! The reviews…the comments weren’t that good nor satisfied. Some even mentioned very “disappointed”. But there’s also some plus side for it, which is the unique deco which contained the homey feeling. For instance saying, today, you don’t feel like having your meal in the dining area, lets switch it to the bathroom? reading room?…so…it’s all about the fancy deco they have. On the hand…the most important was about the food and services(these really matter me most). I’ll tell more when I’m in the main stream and lets not drag too far.

So…here comes Friday, and I was there quite early….in fact the earliest. And before anyone could make it there on time due to traffic jam along LDP, I went to join another early group having their dinner at the Bubba Gump. Since I was there…I also help out to eat a bit. And when the time comes…here we are…

There’s a special corner place which was occupied by 15 of us and I guess…this was the private space mentioned earlier…and frankly speaking….I don’t find the deco really interesting at all…because…I don’t like the lighting…too dim..not enough ambient which leads to fail the comfortable environment…Okay…anyway I’m still fine with it….lets kick it…

This was the small list of dinner menu which I think it’s a pre-ordered meal with little options. Though with little options…still have to order right….

This was the drink I ordered…considered okay…nothing really makes me WoW!

Since I’m not taking the main course (as I’d mentioned earlier…I had something at the Bubba Gump) I wanted to try something light…and salad comes into my mind…so…lets pick one off the little menu…

As the captioned told…it’s really lousy….the first taste…ermmm…it’s still okay…I’m okay with those greenies…until I ate the avocado….OMG…YIAKKKSSS!!! what’s that…it’s tasteless…and actually it’s very dry…too dry for its type…doesn’t has a unique taste at all…..this was the first and my last time tasting such odd salad.

But surprisingly….a friend sitting next to me…instead they are actually couple…told me that it’s okay…there’s nothing wrong with the salad…he also asked whether am I not used to it? OMG…come on man…I eat almost anything…but not this…and he keep on saying…I’m not use to the salad…and it tasted okay…and so does the girlfriend does agreed with him….o_O Okay…it could be just me…my problem…so…serving next…another appetizer…

I don’t think I want to eat it…but the first comment I heard from Whalen and Debbie…”ehh..tasteless wor!!” Then the guy sit next to me again…replied…”no ar!! Got taste…who said no taste”….very automatic…I just pick up my chopstick and try it…hmmm….okay…there’s taste….but what taste…and what’s that I just ate…again…frankly speaking…the taste base on my first attempt was purely sour plum juice…typical type…those normally we tasted on the Lou Sang during CNY at any restaurant. Then when I came to know that…it’s chili jam instead….my reaction was like…shit…no way man…there’s nothing near to chili jam…come on…where’s the chef graduate from…??? Then again…the guy sit next to me mentioned that…it’s lychee lar…how can you not taste it…errr….really…I can’t taste it…

And do you think this was fusion enough to be named as fusion food? (someone mentioned it’s fusion food…hence a question mark in my head and now it’s being blog it here…you can poll if you want to)

Actually they served fish cakes as appetizer as well…but I didn’t took any photo of it….

Then here comes the main course….there were three all together…but I didn’t taste any….

To me..the pasta looks dry…even wantan mee needs more sauce…all didn’t attract me a single bit.

So…here was the final item to be served…the dessert…

At first…I thought that I can eat it with either spoon or folk…but I don’t think it really works that way…so I wanted to try with my hand…the first touch was sticky…oh no…it’s sugar…topped with mousse and can peach and strawberry…the result was sweeeeet….too sweet to my likeness….it’s a nono to me…

So…that’s concluded the meal of the night, and I’m very sure that I won’t be going back there again…cause I’m rating it 0/10…bad chefs who don’t even understand their customer…

Okay next…will go into details of the birthday celebration….so…no more food comment can!

>Italianies – The Curve

>Last Friday, I went for dinner with my sister at the Curve. We scouted around for foods and most important thing was….it must have a big TV with Astro showing Olympic games, LoL!!!

Okay…then here we got one…the Italianies next to Laundry Bar. The atmosphere was good…opposite it was the Damansara Cineleisure…creating the environment with good ambient…overall it was really tempting..so we went in and chose a good spot for TV. ^_^”

After we made our order…and while waiting for food to be served…the warm from oven bread was served to welcome our hungry stomach.

After our last lesson from Coconut House, I now ordered some very light and appetizer kicking beverages instead….

Then a cocktail for my sis…

It was lucky that we didn’t ordered lotsa food….it was just 2 main course….

There are 2 versions of the pasta…one is the plain angel hair and the other one was the one we ordered….it was with chicken meat. The portion was really huge and it’s enough for 3-4 serving. Although it’s big…but the taste didn’t went mad at all…it’s just nice..not too dry…the sauce was just enough to wet my mouth….but surprisingly…we can finished it!

Then the next dish was this….can’t really remember what’s this call…

The sauce was really kicking….you don’t really get the heavy feel after you’ve ate it. The sour taste really works though it’s not the main taste of it. The chicken meat was really soft and can easily work out and eat it….no hassle at all for those who are lazy.

After eating…what else…we pay lar….it costs RM 90.20 excluding taxes and service charges. I bet you won’t ask me where’s this place right….??? Read the title…LOL!!!
