The Smokehouse, Cameron Highland

it was the last day of Chinese New Year~
the Chinese Valentine's Day...
we went to Cameron Highland for Chinese medication...
haha! sounds so Chinese... =D
whenever we go to Camero Highland, we will always head to this cosy and nice restaurant to have our afternoon tea~
an English old style with nice environment restaurant...
- The Smokehouse -
they served different menu for different time frame~
breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner...
let's see what we had as our afternoon tea...
special afternoon teas menu~
 as usual, bei will has his cup of Cafe Latte...
3 layers or 4 layers? XD
Cafe Latte  RM17  (i know it was overpriced)
 i chose to have tea set...
which come with pot of tea and their signature Scones~
the Devonshire Cream Tea Set...
my pot of tea from Devonshire Cream Tea Set  RM25
 wanted to try their scones for so long...
and yes! it was so nice! crispy outside soft inside and not too buttery~
yum yum...
the yummilicious Scones from the set...
 a perfect scone got to match with nice strawberry preserve and cream~
their strawberry preserve was just perfect with the scone!
not too sweet and the taste of strawberry is strong enough...
oh gosh~ i'm craving for it already...
the strawberry preserve and cream that served together with the scones...
 we thought we could just have the scones and our drinks~
it was just a thought... haha!
when i studied the menu, i was attracted by the description...
toast and bacon grilled with cheese...
after we have made the order, we actually worried it will end up just 2 slices of bread topped with bacon and some cheese~
look at the photo below you will know...
yes! we were wrong! it was AWESOMELY nice!
with nice name as well~
Elegant Highland Rarebit  RM35
 every item in the menu were all overpriced...
well~ the very famous tourism spot in Malaysia...
they priced for the tourists from all over the world~
i don't blame them!
in fact, to me with the very nice and cosy environment...
of course with the one you love...
make every single cent worthwhile~
once in a while... okay la~ ^^
the crazy love birds... =)
i always wanted to stay in their hotel room...
even just one night~ i would be really happy...
but it's really pricey to me now!
maybe few years later~ perhaps, next year? 
work harder then! =D

his birthday at Bubba Gump, The Curve

7th of January 26 years back...
was the day he first say hi to the world~
about 5 years back, it became an important day to me...
since then, every 7th of January...
is the day i will spend my day with him~
no matter what happens...

he chose Bubba Gump for the birthday dinner~
we did enjoy ourselves there...
with the good food and good service...
let's see what we had for the celebration... ^^
all the soft drinks are refillable...
and their special Mango Sparkler as well~
refillable Mango Sparkler  RM11.90
their signature dish is a must~ 
the peel and eat shrimps...
this time, we chose to have the mixed of Garlic Spice and Cajun Spice...
Mixed ¾ pound Shrimper's Net Catch  RM29.90
since he is the birthday boy... err~ should i use birthday man? 
haha! anyway~
i let him to choose what tempted him from the menu...
large chargrilled Shrimp and Andouille Sausage with mashed potatoes and bourbon sauce...
sounds great right?
yea~ it was awesome! 
the Drunken Shrimp.. i was wondering why am i not drunk after having this! XD
Lt. Dan's Drunken Shrimp  RM39.90
another pick of the day was Cajun Shrimp~
shrimps sautéed in a hot and spicy Cajun Butter Sauce
served with garlic bread for drippin'
it was not bad, the sauce was good...
was a good match with the garlic bread~
but i prefer the Cajun Prawns that we had in L·table...
Cajun Shrimp  RM23.90
we can't call a perfect meal if there is no dessert~
my plan was order a piece of cake from the menu as his birthday cake...
then, i can get the crew to sing a special birthday song for him...
(is part of their norms when there's a birthday customer in the restaurant ^^)
unfortunately, he didn't want it...
so, i just picked a dessert that looks yummy from the menu...
then i was attracted by the special funny name of it - That Chocolate Thing
a special jar of warm flourless chocolate cake, topped with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream~
and drizzled with a raspberry sauce...
it was SUPERB AWESOMELY YUMMY!! 
the awesome "That Chocolate Thing"  RM18.90
i thought it must be a very sweet dessert...
surprisingly, it was not!
the sweetness was just nice... and the mixture of warm chocolate cake and ice cream was awesome!
highly recommended dessert~ =)
picture courtesy of the waiter... *love*
since he didn't has his birthday cake~
i went to the nearest Starbucks and grabbed a cupcake for him...
Happy Birthday, my Love  *hugs & kiss*
and my present to him was:
Lois Jeans
Lois Jeans as present... ^^
the man that i've loved for about 5 years...
and i believe i will love him for the rest of my life~
sometimes, he is just so cute~ =)
as i'm blogging about the Bubba Gump...
i'm craving for the shrimps already~
hopefully can go back again anytime soon... ^^

Charlie Brown Cafe, Suria KLCC

< Permanently CLOSED >

when i first read about their 1st outlet in Penang...
i wish i am staying in Penang, so that i can pay a visit...
watch Snoopy cartoon since i was a kid...
is all about the childhood memory~
was so excited when i knew about their new outlet in KL...
thanks Bei for bringing me there...
the Charlie Brown Cafe in Suria KLCC~
the cutie menu... ^^
 we got to order from the counter...
then get the number plate~
and they will serve our food and drinks when ready...
even the number plate is cute!
our cakes and drinks were served very fast~
it might because we went in the morning when they just started the operation...
i really love their coffee art!! 
Lucy Van Pelt on the Coffee Latte~ ^^
Bei's Hot Coffee Latte - RM9.50
then i had Woodstock on my Mocha~
so lovely!! =) 
Woodstock Hot Coffee Mocha - RM11.00
 we decided to have some bites before we head to another restaurant for brunch~
so, i picked the very cute Woodstock Blueberry Cheese cake...
Woodstock Blueberry Cheese - RM9.50
 then, also the Charlie's Tiramisu~
Charlie's Tiramisu - RM12.00
 in the cafe, can easily find all the characters' sculpture...
i can only share part of it~
if you wanted to find out more, pay a visit!
from the left: Charlie in suit on the counter, Chef Charlie at the entrance,  Snoopy with his coffee beside the entrance...
 we took pictures with the 2 huge sculptures...
me & Snoopy; Bei & Charlie~ ^^
their coffee and cakes are not the best in town...
in fact, i find it was a bit pricey~
but, i don't mind paying for once to visit the Snoopy and Charlie~ ^^
maybe next round for their food?
i did see parents coming with their children...
the smile on their face make everything worthwhile i believe...

+wondermilk cafe, Damansara Utama

it has been years! 
and finally i visited one of their outlet at Damansara Utama...
read about +wondermilk in newspaper few years back...
was thinking to pay a visit since then...
and yes! finally... i was there, enjoyed my cup of Mocha...
had good time with Bei, and the sisters~
big big WM on the wall...
cute stuff selling in the cafe~
every decoration was unique... perhaps i'm bias? =D
like this afternoon tea tray so much...NICE!
 they decorated every corner with different decorations...
even all the tables and chairs were different...
non of them is from the same set...
all mix and match~
and that makes her said: i think they just collect all the unwanted furnitures and put in...
haha~ XD
somehow, i think that's their USP (unique selling point)~
oops...too much marketing thinking recently... =P
one of the corner with sofa...
 my favourite corner...
was thinking to pick this seats...
unfortunately, when i back from ordering counter...
it was taken by others~
sort of the privater corner... ha!
seats next to our table...
sofa for 2...not suitable for eating... XD
 guess where was i when i took this shot...
yes! at the toilet area!
even toilet area is nicely decorated...
 the walkway to the toilet...
a failed shot... i should have stand further...
 +wondermilk is using the self service system like Starbucks and Coffee Beans~
make your order at the ordering counter...
pick up your drinks at the pick up counter~
but if you have ordered some food...
no worries... they will send the food to your table...
milk can as number stand...and No. 5 was our number of the day~
 we had breakfast over there...
at 4 something in the evening~
and i had my cup of Mocha as usual...
but the barista spoiled the coffee art...
it was a Heart shape before he put the cup down~ =(
Hot Caffe Mocha  RM8.00nett
Bei had his all time favourite for sure!
Hot Caffe Latte  RM7.00nett
 she picked this just because of the very cute name... ^^
Ice Baby Latte  RM7.00nett
 she didn't want coffee... they have quite a number of non-coffee drinks too...
Lime Ice Soda  RM8.00nett
 i think my Mocha more worthwhile than her Lime Ice Soda since i can also make the Soda at home... XD
as i mentioned earlier, we had breakfast in the evening~
just because they served all day breakfast... =)
Turkey & Cheese Baked Potato  RM8.90nett - Highly Recommended!!
 i like the way they named the dishes... 
Hello Elvis!  RM14.90nett  -  beef rasher slice, chicken sausage, scrambled eggs with mushrooms, grilled tomato, baked beans and toast~
Mornin' Marilyn  RM14.90nett  -  chicken frank slices in creamy black pepper sauce, mushroom and cheese omelette, grilled tomato, baked beans and toast~
we were wondering where is the black pepper sauce for the Mornin' Marilyn...
although it was served without the sauce, the paper box was cleaned... =D
Sloppy Hotdog  RM10.90nett  -  jumbo chicken frank topped with their famous homemade coney sauce~
 the Sloppy Hotdog was superb! 
it was so so so so so NICE! 
is one of their all time favourite menu... ^^
Super Cheese Burger  RM16.90nett  -  100% lean beef, creamy mustard sauce, onions, cheese & fries on the side~
Super Cheese Burger took the longest preparation time...
but it was worth waiting...
the beef patty was juicy and tender~ 
mixed with the onions, cheese and mustard sauce...
hmm... yummy!!
omg! i'm craving for +wondermilk food...
wanted to try their cupcakes but we were overloaded...
will definitely go back for the food...
of course~ and the cupcakes...

Dreamz Cafe, Kota Damansara

终于有时间把这家让我很感动的蛋糕店和大家分享...
还真的要谢谢病魔的来袭哦~
哈哈!生病的时候总是比较容易想吃一些自己不能吃的东西...
好了!不再废话多多~进入正题吧!
- Dreamz Cafe -
位于Kota Damansara一个还再发展中的地方~
它没有亮丽的招牌,所以之前我都找不着...
小小的,但很有特色的招牌~
我想他们是在营业的时候才把招牌搬出来,放在通往蛋糕店的门旁...
不华丽,但却很有心思...
随着梯级走到一楼就是Dreamz的所在地~
鞋子是要放在店外的...
别担心,他们很贴心的准备了鞋架... =)
很漂亮的蛋糕展示冰箱...
一踏进Dreamz,映入眼帘的就是那被布置得美美的蛋糕展示冰箱~
形形色色的蛋糕和甜点...
真的让我恨不得把所有种类都点了~
超喜欢他们自制的推荐卡~还有那些零食...
在冰箱的顶端是各种摆设品和他们自制的推荐卡~
还有,还有那些让我充满童年回忆的零食...
比较private的角落...
在店里还有一个小角落是比较private的...
我们去到的时候那里已经有人了~
我们也不方便打扰啦...
顾客的留言...
就在我们位子的旁边~
有个留言“网”...
一个被布置得很有感觉的角落...
是每一个顾客留下了他们对Dreamz的感觉的地方~
crème brulee 焦糖布丁
我不是一个很爱吃甜的女生...
但却对焦糖布丁有着一种莫名的迷恋...
Dreamz的焦糖布丁不是我吃过最好的~
但也已经很不错...
不会太甜,吃到最后亦不会腻...
Cafe Mocha 热摩卡
对浓咖啡过敏的我,对摩卡情有独钟...
对我而言,摩卡必须是可可和咖啡均匀的结合才是好摩卡~
那种咖啡香穿插着淡淡却明显的可可香...
hmm~要是现在有一杯在手里就好了...
Dreamz有很不错的摩卡哦!^^
Hot Green Tea 热绿茶
我的肥妹啊~不是咖啡痴...
所以她点了绿茶...
一整壶的绿茶,老板娘还会不时地关切是不是该加水了...
如果是呆很久的话,很值得哦!*贼* XD
Lemon Layer
Dreamz的layer就是大家熟悉的mille crepe~
不同的是,他们有许多不同的口味...
肥妹特别爱柠檬口味的食物...
所以我们就点了Lemon Layer~
酸酸甜甜的,还不错...
Rum Raisin Layer
店员说是他们新推出的口味~
所以我就点啦...
个人认为很不错,因为带有Rum的香味...
而且不会太甜...好吃!
肥妹的画,我的字...
我们也和大家一样...
留下了我们的“足迹”~ =D
柜台前的风光...
杯子被排列得非常整齐...
他们采用了开放式茶水台...
真的很不错~
忙着拍照的我...自恋的我...
肥妹趁我不注意的时候偷拍的~
还蛮有感觉的说...
我们的合照~
找不到人帮我们拍合照~
唯有对着镜子拍咯...
哈哈!没错!我的肥妹一点也不肥... =P

真的很想和三五知己在去Dreamz一趟...
在那里消磨一个下午~
互相分享大家的生活近况...
真是不错啊!
