White House Kitchen, Kota Damansara

Sunday is always family day...
when i was younger, we were not allowed to go out on Sunday...
as we grow, it has became a habit that Sunday should always keep for family...
it was Sunday that left only baby sis and i at home...
we were cracking our head to think what to have for dinner...
finally, we decided to give this "new" restaurant a try...
White House Kitchen
an American restaurant located at a quieter area of Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara...
it looks very colourful from the outside...
can hardly miss it if pass by...

WATAMI Japanese Casual Restaurant, 1 Utama

WATAMI is always our choice when we are craving for casual Japanese food...
except their ala-carte menu, their set menu are always good...
few months back, we had a super great deal for lunch...
though not sure whether still serving the same set deal~
but i think this deal is worth mentioning...

stated on the menu, the set was for sharing of 2...
- Casual Set at RM 90.00 -
which included a starter, 2 mains and 3 side dishes...
Ceasar Salad
 it stated half portion of ceasar salad...
looking at the big bowl, i couldn't imagine how big it will be if is a full portion...
not a great ceasar salad, but what to expect from a Japanese restaurant for western food?
Sukiyaki
 sukiyaki always my favourite~

Saffron Indian Restaurant, Sri Hartamas

Chinese, Malay and Indian cuisines are the most common food that i take almost everyday...
however, i have never write about any Indian restaurant before~
too common until i forgot about some of them too worth sharing maybe...
Saffron Indian Restaurant is one of them...
located in Sri Hartamas, like a hidden gem in the area...
i wouldn't know there is Indian restaurant if is not recommended...
Saffron Indian Restaurant
 from where we seated, i can't get my eyes off from this painting...
just like now, i can't stop thinking about what i had in Saffron that afternoon...
it was a meeting lunch and i would say the most enjoyable meeting lunch...
Mango Lassi  RM 4.50
 made from fresh mango with their special recipe...
so thick and milky but not too sweet~
fragrance of mango lingers in my mouth...
best mango lassi ever...

Daimon Yokocho 大门横丁, Alam Damai, Cheras

Merry Christmas world~
the last festive of the year and we are about to say goodbye to 2013...
2013 has been really good, though towards the end went a bit haywire...
but i believe everything happened for a reason~
i might not see it today, but one day i will know eventually...
and i'm sure God is blessing me... =)

  no major celebration this year...
only had my favourite udon as simple lunch with bei after a painful treatment...
since we went all the way to Cheras for treatment...
we tried our luck at Daimon Yokocho if we could get the best seller udon...
i only had it once on our first visit and this time again, disappointed...
so, we went on with other recipes of udon...
Tonkotsu Braised Pork Udon 九洲叉烧乌冬  RM 24.90
 this non spicy savoury broth udon was really good...

Photo Crafts 'The Cafe', Kota Damansara

Happy Christmas Eve~
2013 marked the most unforgettable Christmas that i ever had...
since can't go anywhere, might as well clear all my food photos...

Photo Crafts 'The Cafe' has became one of the favourite spot for me to hang around...
not only because it's an unique cafe with good food and good coffee...
more so because we have became friends after several visits...
i've shared quite a bit on how the cafe looks like in my previous post...
this time, i'm going to focus on food they served... =)
Iced Lemon Yakult  RM 6.90
 highly recommended!!
refreshing and good at all time...
Yakult is always too sweet to me~
blended with lemon juice has balanced the sweetness well...
Hot Chocolate  RM 6.90
 from the picture already can see how chocolaty the hot chocolate was...
it was really a good cup of chocolate...

Gangnam 88, Sunway Giza

ever since the K-Pop fever hit Malaysia...
everything from Korea seems to be the "in-thing"...
the song Gangnam Style was so famous even a kid knows how to sing and dance...
what would be better to name a restaurant after the "Gangnam"?
- Gangnam 88 -
Gangnam 88
a Korean BBQ restaurant located in Sunway Giza, Kota Damansara...
they started in Mont Kiara and this Giza outlet is the second one... 
entrance
 in the restaurant, looking out through the entrance...
this outlet is much bigger compared to their first one...

MyElephant Thai Restaurant, Sri Hartamas

what would be better than a meeting over great lunch?
one of the benefits i got from working with RCS is always get to have good food...
MyElephant is located in Sri Hartamas...
to make sure you can get a seat, be there by 12pm...
they have unbelievable lunch crowd~
we were lucky on our first visit and not so lucky on the second time...

walked towards the entrance, they have a lovely signage stated -
"no wifi, talk to each other"
seriously, we should really practice that more... =D
as soon as we seated, menu was given...
as usual, my boss will make the order and all i need to do is sit back and eat...
we have several of side dishes but i only managed to take the starter and the desserts...
Mieng Kum  RM 18.00
 my first try on this Thai starter...
looking at the ingredient on the plate, i tried my first bite very reluctantly...

Coffee Societe, Solaris Dutamas

Solaris Dutamas and Publika have really became a hot spot in town...
if you are up to food hunting and bored with the crowded shopping mall on weekend...
these areas will be the perfect place to go~
i've been to these places many times and i'm really loving the very artistic environment...
though i still always lost my way in these malls...
but i think i'm getting very much better...
at least i can easily find my favourite cafe in Solaris Dutamas...
- Coffee Societe -
Coffee Societe
 a simple cafe, well-known with it's good coffee...
Coffee Societe do not have a big shop lot...
the cafe was not really big, but was nicely organized...
full house
 though the tables and chairs are all very close to each other...
but somewhat it doesn't make me feel uncomfortable...
and a full house is a norm for weekend...

Wood & Steel, Kota Damansara

what is your normal activity on a lazy Sunday?
my kind of Sunday no other than hanging around in a nice cosy cafe...
with either a camera or a book, or both together...
have a cup of good coffee and enjoy every moment in the cafe...
coffee, tea or me?
 nowadays, to find a good cafe is really easier than getting a taxi...
everyday i read about new cafes opening in every corner of the town...
just not long ago, i read about this newly opened cafe...
attracted by the limited photos, i googled this cafe...
i can only found another blog entry of it, it was an online photo album...
a very attractive cafe it seems...
and the best part was it's so close to where i live...
W & S
- Wood & Steel -
just like how the owner named the cafe...

El Sid's Bar, Medan Damansara

Sid's Pub is a very famous pub in town...
they've been growing big and has already 4 outlets around KL and PJ...
lately, they have opened a new outlet in Medan Damansara...
but they named the outlet differently and this outlet was in a different concept...
located at the corner lot, same row with Victoria Station and Jake's...
El Sid's Bar has a very eye-catchy signboard...
looking into the bar, it was breezy and splashed with colourful colours that made the bar attractive...
walked into the bar, we were greeted by friendly staff...
menu was given as soon as we were seated...
very good first impression i have had with El Sid's Bar...

we were there for a purpose...
to try their Margarita on tap...
friend of ours been telling us about how amazing the Margarita can be on tap...
Frozen Margarita  RM 14.00/glass (Happy Hour)
 the Frozen Margarita was good...
but the tap was totally different with what we imagined...
they have various Margarita on the menu...
but the Original Frozen Margarita was the only one on tap... 

胶卷乐趣:Rolling with Yashica MAT-124

嗨~ 十二月,你好啊!你来得那么快,都让我有点措手不及了...
只能默默地希望仅剩的廿日会是美好的...

感性的话,我就不多说了~
免得又有人很变态的在我面前大声地念出来... (对啦!就是你!)
破天荒地在拿到照片的第二天便 post了~ 也是因为有人一直念一直念的!
(没错!还是你!不要东张西望了!)
不过,还是得谢谢他昨天陪了我一个下午,听我唠唠叨叨的,还请我吃午餐喝咖啡...
所以,这算是谢恩啦!(不欠你了哦~) =P

一直对TLR相机情有独钟...
从认识TLR以来,就一直有打算存笔钱,想说哪天我也可以拥有一台...
要知道啊~ 古董相机可不便宜啊!
后来后来,感谢老天爷的眷顾,朋友的帮助...
我用一半的价钱把 Yashica MAT-124 带回家了...
老板还很好人的送了我一卷 120mm 的胶卷~
说到那卷 Shanghai GP3 100 Pan Film 我可糗了!
竟然完全不知道它是黑白胶卷,在把胶卷送去develop 的时候还以为人家服务小姐搞错了!
我的妈呀~ 我精明的形象毁于一旦啊...
(喂你!别笑那么大声!小心笑歪了你的下巴!)

发现自己搞错了以后就一直担心照片出来效果会不佳...
毕竟在拍的时候都选了颜色对比强烈的景...
幸好照片效果都还算可以~ 12张,有8张是见得人的!
超过一半,TLR 处女作,算不错吧! ^^
我们
 特别喜欢这张“我们”...

Milk and Butter, Bangsar

a great day starts with a great breakfast...
nowadays, there are so many cafes in town serving good breakfast...
especially Bangsar, Damansara Heights and Solaris Dutamas areas...
breakfast?
on a lazy Sunday morning, head to a good cafe...
have a nice cup of coffee and a great tasty breakfast...
what a life~

Jarrod & Rawlins, Damansara Heights

it was a lovely night~
"soul" came back from her Korea trip and called for a gathering...
the main reason was to give away all the souvenirs that she has bought for us...
yippie!! i've got a bag full of stuff from Korea...

as usual, it was a after work dinner session...
and again, i'm the one who chose where to go and what to eat~
heard about Jarrod & Rawlins' famous breakfast for so many times and so long...
always want to give it a try but too bad, never a morning we will travel that far...
therefore, i suggested to have our dinner there and check out their dinner menu...
Jarrod & Rawlins
"soul" brought her Hikaru bear along just to show off... =P
she got this lovely teddy from the Teddy Museum in Korea~
he has became our model that night...

Aku Cafe & Gallery, KL

时下除了大大小小的 cafe 开得满街都是外~
还有一个趋势我倒是觉得很不错的...
社会上,似乎开始推崇有关文艺和文化的一切...
故有“文青”,文艺青年的出现...
我自问和文艺两字毫无相干,更不可能在我身上闻到任何相关气息...
但对于有关文艺或文化的一切,我还是相当感兴趣的~

那一日街拍,机缘巧合之下...
我们踏入了“亞榖”...
一间充满文化气息的咖啡文化走廊...
亞穀咖啡文化走廊
抵达的时候,cafe 都还没有开始营业...
后来因为朋友面子大的关系,我们得以提早进 cafe 坐坐...

Typica Cafe 豆原, Shaw Parade

< Permanently CLOSED >

最近常看到朋友们都不约而同地在面子书上传着“别为了生计而忘了生活”的说法...
才发现,是啊!忙啊忙的,都快忘了该怎么生活了...
我的理想生活啊~ 其实很简单...
不必工作的下午,可以到一家喜欢的咖啡厅,一本好书,一杯咖啡的...
悠悠闲闲的、安安静静的,那该是多好啊~
咖啡吗?
随着现今社会对于享受生活、活在当下的趋势,城中出现各式各样的咖啡厅...
有的是很有独特风格装潢的,有的以好咖啡好食物闻名,有的有自己的故事...
卖着像以上照片一样精致的咖啡,有谁会不喜欢?
不管是怎样的咖啡厅,我都喜欢~
不过,有自己故事的倒是比较能引起我的注意...

豆原,是一家很独具一格、有自己故事的咖啡馆...

Jonker 88, Malacca

there are so many things cannot be missed in Malacca...
every time i visit Malacca, i have a to-eat list~
no doubt the famous chicken rice ball will always be at the top of the list...
now, to enjoy an expensive "afternoon tea" at Hard Rock will also be added into my list...
apart from these, something really good for a hot sunny day is also one of the top 3...
Cendol
i can have 3 of this in a row...
and after trying on so many different ones, i still prefer the one i first tried...
the one in middle of Jonker Street, the one always with a long long queue in front...
the one named Jonker 88~

Chicken Rice Ball @ Kedai Kopi Chung Wah, Malacca

further to my family trip 3.0 in Malacca...
have shared about my experience with Seri Costa Hotel and Hard Rock Cafe earlier...
this time, i'm gonna talk about one of the signatures in Malacca - the chicken rice ball...
i had bad experience with chicken rice ball during my first visit to Malacca many years back...
we went to one of the so call TV programme promoted restaurant and we were not served with rice ball, just simply because it was Raya and there was pack-full...
to me, that was only an excuse, is unreasonable!!
then, on my second visit, finally i tasted the best and the original chicken rice ball in town~
- Kedai Kopi Chung Wah (Hainanese Chicken Rice) -
Chicken Rice Balls
the chicken rice balls were so soft and tasty...

Hard Rock Cafe, Malacca

i got a shock when i first saw Hard Rock Cafe in Malacca during my staff trip in May...
couldn't believe my eyes when i saw it and it actually shows how outdated i am...
didn't get to visit during staff trip due to time constrained...
since i have another chance during family trip, of course i won't miss the chance again...
Hard Rock Cafe, Malacca
the signature guitar standing beautifully at the entrance~

Seri Costa Hotel, Malacca

it was 2 months back when we had our Family Trip 3.0 in August...
we started our trip 2 years ago, first trip was in Cameron Highland, then Langkawi...
this year, we decided to go to the historical city, Malacca...
the Family~
it was a free & easy 3 days 2 nights trip...
we took our time, walked around the city town...
even walked from the hotel to town and it really wasn't that far...
Seri Costa Hotel located at a new area of the town (i think so)...
 we got it from Groupon at RM85/room/night for standard room without window...

Pulai Desaru Beach Resort & Spa, Johor

welcome to the last quarter of 2013...
day 6 of October, did a small review of my past 3 quarters and found that i've actually did nothing...
but it was a great year so far...
though nothing has achieved on my career path...
so many so call opportunities came across, worked and waited...
still, nothing has fulfilled...
i believe it's a test God given to me, only to make me a better person~

Desaru trip was one of the opportunities that came across...
on our Merdeka day holiday, i took a bold step to follow them for the team building event...
and it was indeed a very good short getaway...
 blue sky, sandy white beach, refreshing sea breeze...
oh~ i miss my beach holiday so badly...
Desaru beach
Pulai Desaru Beach Resort & Spa located at Kota Tinggi, Johor...
i didn't know about it's existence until this trip...
all the while i thought Desaru Johor equals to Lotus Desaru Resort...
and Pulai is just next to Lotus...

movie: 分手合约

在大家都为《被偷走的那五年》而疯狂的时候,我也跟着看了一遍...
影评都说是一部会骗走许多眼泪的电影~
我是个哭点超级低的人,只要看见别人在哭我都会鼻头一酸的泪眼汪汪...
只可惜,《被偷走的那五年》不但没有让我掉下一滴不值钱的泪~
还让我觉得有点闷... 是我不懂得欣赏吧!
不过,那部电影倒让我认识了白百何这个女演员....
她,是一个很会演的艺人~
正因为知道了她,加上她搭档超帅气能演的彭于晏...
刚刚就看了《分手合约》...
picture courtesy by Google Image
剧情简介:父母亡故的何俏俏(白百合 饰)得到同班同学李行(彭于晏 饰)加倍关怀,两人逐步成了一对青梅竹马的恋人。毕业前夕,李行向俏俏求婚,不料竟被她用“没有达到她想要的物质条件”为理由,狠心地拒绝了。双方在此前提下彼此立下“5年后若单身就结婚”的合约。俏俏远走上海,自尊心受挫的李 行则留在北京打拼。春去秋来,5年之后,俏俏满心以为痴情男李行依然记得当年的约定,两人可以再续前缘,怎料却得知李行要和自小在法国长大的白富美周蕊(吴佩慈 饰)结婚的消息。倍受打击又不甘心的俏俏只有求助于“无敌GAY蜜”毛毛(蒋劲夫 饰),准备联手把李行再次夺回来。到底李行和俏俏的感情在五年后是否还有回旋的余地?

Tanah Aina Farrah Soraya, Raub, Pahang

time flies~ here we are on the last day of September...
the journey back to the nature during our annual Raya getaway was still fresh in mind...
and it was actually one and a half months back...
it was indeed a very good trip though it was short and rush...
38 Gang
slightly different with the previous years, this year we went on the 3rd and 4th day of Raya due to the closure of the Tanah Aina Farrah Soraya...
(that was actually frustrated us where they informed us about the closure only after we made payment)
first impression was not really good but they left us no choice as we have paid full...
it was my working Saturday and thanks to the very gentleman GSC and pretty ECY for waiting...
the traffic was quite smooth as it took only about 2 hours for us to reach there...

Tanah Aina Farrah Soraya located in Raub, Pahang...
you will definitely pass by when you are on the way to Fraser's Hill from Bentong...
as it was a "Back to Nature" themed resort, they have a separate car park area for us to park our car...
then, shuttle service provided to bring us up to the resort area...
welcome board
as we reaching the reception area, we were welcomed by this wooden board...
a journey of LOVE, back to nature...
and yes, that's what we were expecting~

胶卷乐趣:Rolling with Konica Auto-Reflex

不知道从什么时候开始,我爱上那透过镜头看到的世界...
爱上那按下快门,把瞬间变成永恒的感觉...
也许因为我比较善忘吧!常常很容易把一些事情给忘记了...
所以特别珍惜照片,感觉好像照片替我把刹那的一切给锁住一样...
还记得当初开始接触相机,用的就是最普通的胶卷相机...
那时候,顽皮的男生都会在我们女生拍照的时候冒出来搞破坏的...
然后,我们就会用“算人头”的方式来惩罚他们!
现在回想起来,嘴角还是会不知觉的往上扬... 年少无知的快乐啊!
后来,数码相机盛行,渐渐取代了胶卷...
大一的时候,贝送了第一架数码相机给我~
我的小银 (Canon Ixus 85) 可是陪着我们上山下海过呢!
再后来,Lomo 相机风靡一时...
我也像一般女生一样,被它们可爱又绚丽的外表给深深吸引...
就这样展开了我的胶卷乐趣旅程~
街拍 · 09.08.2013
Konica Auto-Reflex 是我第一次接触手动古典的 SLR...
从测光,调光圈,到对焦都必须靠自己和相机沟通完成~
还好身边有位师父,要不然啊~ 照片出来肯定只有灾难了!哈哈...
那一天,带着 Konica Auto-Reflex,跟着他们,完成了我第一次的街拍...

胶卷乐趣:Rolling with La Sardina II

距离上一次带着 La Sardina 出游也快一年了~
人啊~ 总是有点贪新忘旧的...
那一天,心血来潮,带着它,开始了它第二次的胶卷旅程...
色彩
这一次有比较能掌握“小彩”...
double exposure 也拍得比之前好~
记得当底片被处理好之后,她告诉我,她还是不太会欣赏 double exposure...
而他却说,他看到很好看的 multiple exposure...
其实,我也没有很懂得欣赏 double exposure,却没办法否定它的好看...
有的时候会想:是啊!double exposure 就像世事,总有两面...
所以,我相信,只要处理得好,世事和 double exposure 都一样可以是很棒的~ =)

夕阳之约 @ Sepang Gold Coast

“夕阳无限好,只是近黄昏”
美好的事情,往往总是特别的短暂...
也不知道是因为太美好以至我们忘了时间还在动~
还是老天爷要让我们更懂得珍惜,所以短暂...
夕阳
那一天,是在一个漫长工作周期后,唯一一天的休假...
贝原本就约好公司伙伴们来个 short getaway...
就在 Sepang Gold Coast 海边附近~
因为约好的时间是晚上7点,于是我们俩就决定先到 Tanjung Sepat 吃顿饭、喝个茶,再往Gold Coast 出发...
抵达时,正好是太阳快要下山的时间...
贝提议,既然他们还没到,我们就到 Sepang Golden Palm Tree Resort 去走一走吧!
就这样,过了一个很美很美的傍晚...

Three Little Pigs & the Big Bad Wolf, Bangsar Village I

俗话说:人生得一知己,死而无憾...
我想,我大概可以死个好几次都无憾了~
虽说朋友交好不看时间长短,但从小一起长大...
一起经历青春无敌、年少轻狂...
一起笑过、哭过、疯狂过...
那种每一天见面,回家后还得讲上好几个小时电话的日子,在十几年后的今天,每每回想当初,心里依然温暖...
正因为那丝丝的温暖,彼此间生出无限大的默契~
随着大家不断长大,生活里不再只是彼此...
有太多太多其他的元素让我们操心,把我们的时间分薄...
但那无限大的默契,让大家至少每个月腾出一顿晚餐的时间,聚首一堂...
三个月前的那一次,是为我庆生~
三只小猪与大野狼
之前一直被这家餐厅的名字所吸引...
三只小猪与大野狼是童年有名的故事~
餐厅位于 Bangsar Village I 外围,不太容易找到...
后来,我们才发现原来可以很简单...
side entrance
原来他们还有一个入口就在 Village Grocer 旁边...
经过 Village Grocer 有个小门,踏入就可以看到以上照片的摆设...

Ante Kitchen & Bar, Solaris Dutamas

妈常说我庆祝生日像是人家神庙做神诞,一连几天...
其实我不过是个被老天爷一直眷顾着的小孩...
身边总有一群爱我的人,贝、家人,还有朋友~
生日前夕,我的贱客们请了我一顿很丰盛的晚餐...
就在 Solaris Dutamas 里的 Ante Kitchen & Bar...
Ante Kitchen & Bar
不记得为什么会选上这家餐厅...
是一家非常好找的餐厅,车子在进入 Solaris Dutamas 停车场前,就会看到它...
让我这个常常在 Publika 和Solaris Dutamas 迷路的人对它特别有好感...
当然,环境也相当好...
不会太吵,灯光调得刚好...
小装饰
很喜欢那里的摆设和装饰...
桌椅间都会有这些简单,不复杂的小装饰...

以黑色为底色其实是很聪明的做法...
黑底让食物的照片更鲜明亮丽...

TWG Tea Salon & Boutique, Pavilion KL

时光飞逝...
最近我好像很爱用这一句...
无他,纯粹真的感慨时间过得太快...
快得好像我都来不及好好的活在当下~
一转眼,好几个月又过去了...
一转眼,我已经朝初老更迈进一步了...
仿佛过生日不过是昨天的事~
当天的愉悦、感动和幸福,都还历历在目...
虽然那已是快三个月前的事情...

TWG Tea Salon & Boutique 是我们行程的第一站...
就在我生日的那一天...
TWG Tea Salon & Boutique, Pavilion KL
很华贵的店面...
采用全玻璃当围墙,搭配金色框边...
华丽而不俗气~

自1837年就存在的品牌...
TWG Tea 是茶业里的名牌~

年年如是,这个约定也持续了好几年...
庆幸大家依然坚守这份承诺,当然,更是深深的相信着友情长存...
回顾几个月前的 monthly gathering...
- Just Heavenly Cafe, BSC -
听说他们的蛋糕很好吃,如果没记错的话,那好像也是我们选择它的原因之一...
Mocha  RM 10.00
 很普通的一杯 Mocha...
不会难喝,也不特别好喝~

Wild Honey, Mandarin Gallery Singapore

went for a short getaway to Singapore...
it was more like a gathering than a trip~ 
visiting our friends who are now working in Singapore...
was a trip to us but to them can be really tiring as they've got to work on the weekday...
it was indeed a great trip...
got together again after 10 years and we found that we are still who we were to each other...
no hiding, no cheating, no pretending~
that's what friendship all about i suppose...
beautiful trip with beautiful people, definitely added some colours with beautiful places...
out of so many places we went, this cafe will be the strongest pull among all for me to go back to Singapore again...
- WILD HONEY -
Wild Honey
a not too big but very cozy cafe which served all day breakfast menu...
like their queuing system very much~
the first time we went was on Saturday, you won't believe the queue i saw, it was really long...
they put several stools outside the cafe for people to sit while waiting to be seated...
if you have spotted the small electronic gadget at the entrance in the picture...
that's for their customer to key in their details and will get a call from the system informing that seats are available...
i seriously think that is so cool... ^^
counter
that's the only counter they have in the cafe...
with all the menu written in colourful chalks on boards, displaying their pastries and also overlooking the barista who preparing the drinks...

胶卷乐趣:Rolling with Fujifilm ZoomDate F2.8 II

花了好长好长的时间才拍完的一卷 film...
带着它穿越了好几个城市~
出来的效果却还是没有让人满意...
应该是功夫不到家的关系吧!
双子最大的缺点:凡事都只懂而不精...
真的要好好学习如何驾驭这迷人的小相机了~
一卷36张的胶卷,只有区区那11张能用,还真是失败啊!
***
还记得那天带着兴奋的心情出发到机场...
一小时的飞行,我们抵达另一个国度...
五小时的车程,我们身在往湖中岛出发的船上...
半小时的航行,我们踏足那迷人的湖中岛...
晨光
 晨光耀眼,也刺眼...
凌晨6点半,在那里,太阳公公起得好早~
 清晨的湖面,好静好静...
