Lunch at Secret Recipe @ Amcorp Mall, PJ

Was at Amcorp mall the other day and decided to have lunch at Secret Recipe. Saw that there was a promotion for lunch (RM16)  and iced lemon tea. You have the choice of curry mee, grilled black pepper chicken or thai seafood spaghetti. As I was starving at the time, I ordered the rice set.

Grilled black pepper chicken with ice lemon tea. Chicken meat was tender, but find the gravy was a bit too thick.  If it's not for the gravy, I think this dish would be a disappointment. As you can see from the picture, the dish looks plain and not appealing at one glance. What do you think?

Lunch at Sushi Zanmai @ 1 Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur

Went for lunch at Sushi Zanmai @ 1 Mont Kiara.

My friend ordered ice green tea which comes with green tea ice cream. The portion were big but my friend happily finished it since he was more thirsty than hungry. =p

Ordered Sashimi salad with sesame dressing.

Highly recommended. Goes well with sesame dressing. Love it!

My friend ordered salmon, she said it's really fresh (although I find the portion quite small).

Unagi Don (small).

 Find the sauce quite sweet for my taste, however it goes well with rice.

 Beef Udon. Ordered a small bowl and realised it's really small.
This portion served well for one person although I find it's not filling for me.
The beef were tender and the soup were sweet though.

Ghoza. Best to eat it when served hot.

 Love the food and the ambience here, will defiantly go back for more. =)

Birthday Dinner at Village Roast Duck @ Bangsar Village I

Two weeks ago it was my cousin's birthday. My cousin's wife, Nancy arranged to have dinner at Village Roast Duck @ Bangsar Village I.  I was glad that we get to try a new restaurant for a change, instead of our usual place (over & over again). Nancy made the necessary arrangement and booking and when we arrived at 8pm the place was packed! There was a long queue of people outside of the restaurant too. 

  

Flea Market Find at Amcorp Mall @ Old Antique Jewellery Wooden Box

Recently I got myself an antique jewelry box from a flea market at Amcorp Mall. It only cost RM33 to purchase this. It's made from solid wood which its quite heavy.  From the moment I lay my eyes on this one I know I wanted it. 

Although it is not perfect but I love the old antique look of it, especially if it is jewellery box. It's kinder pity there was no key for this. Would love to keep some of my valuables and locked it up. Hopefully in my next visit in a flea market I can find a spare key that can fit into this wooden box (finger cross). For now I just put on my side table and admire it.

The last three weekends I find myself visiting the flea market at Amcorp Mall quite frequently. However, I find the local flea market can be quite pricey, as compared to the flea market I visited in Australia. What do you think?

Have you guys gotten anything from our local flea market lately???

Dinner at Sushi Zanmai @ 1 Mont Kiara

Last night decided to take dad for an early father's day dinner =)

Check out all the food that we ordered and ate....and there were only 3 of us.

Actually the portions are quite small so we have no problem finishing all these.

The food is good, especially we love their sashimi salad with sesame dressing. Yummy.

Where are you going to take your dad for dinner?

Mcdonalds Hello Kitty in Singapore....Kawaiiii

When McDonald's in Hong Kong launched these Hello Kitty Plush toy back in 2011...I really really really wanted one of these....however.....no one I know was going to Hong Kong....and buying them online (i.e Ebay) was ridiculous expensive as buyers were selling them at least USD$20 over (each)....not to forget there will be postage cost incur...which you need to consider (=.=).

Move forward to May 2012, McDonald's in Singapore was actually having these promotion....happiness to the max.  I only came to know about this when I went to Mcd's one morning for breakfast with my buddy....that's when I came across this (Good timing).

Each McDonald's Hello Kitty plush toy was available at $3.60 each with every purchase of an Extra Value Meal and customers are entitled to purchase one toy. Customer can purchase these plush toys separately at $9 each. So far I have only gotten the first two set: Hamburglar & Grimace.  Aren't they adorable??!?!?!?!

When I returned to Malaysia, a dear friend of mine manage to get the Ronald Hello Kitty for me. Thank you Nandan =)

However....I'm missing the 'Birdie" Hello Kitty....my friend told me that this plush was popular and it ran out of stock within a day or two (T.T).

However, I learned that the plush toy was actually imported from Malaysia when I was checking out the back of the plastic. I wonder will there be any chance that Malaysia will launch these plush toy here??? I guess only time we will know. Keeping my finger cross.

Restoran Kong Sai @ Taman Paramount, Petaling Jaya

The other day, my parent took us to a new place for dinner at Taman Paramount. They came across this restaurant a while back and decided try it out since it was crowded. After all, it can't go wrong if the restaurant is crowded right? 

The environment here is quite presentable and clean. Check out their menu hanging on the wall.

Wanted to order the soap from this menu but it costs RM30 and above per bowl...kinder pricey I must say.

Instead, we ordered normal bowl of soups, which were good. 

Lotus Peanut soup & Old Cucumber soup. Love it!

Our food was served within 5 minutes after our soups were served. Talk about speedy service. Check out all the delicious food being served to us. 

All dishes, including rice and drinks came out to RM70++. Value for money I must say. The food was good and the pricing is reasonable. Defiantly worth visit with family and friends to dine for a big and satisfied meals. (^.^)

Investment in Gold?

Since young I've never like gold, I've always find that gold is more for the elderly. As long as I can remember, any item I purchased from jewelry shop I'll always come out from the shop with purchases relating to white gold. The only thing I ever purchased relating to gold will be chocolate wrapped in a gold wrapping paper. =p

Fast forward to 2012, I finally realised the worthy of gold. Since early this year, gold price had appreciated enormously. And early this week when I accompanied my mother to the jewellery shop, I learnt from the seller that one of their regular customer who purchased gold bar from them actually earned RM300,000 within 6 months!!!! (Seriously, it will take me more than 10 years to earn that kind of money) 

Anyway, I was checking out these gold bar in PYT Jeweller at SS2. Look at these, gold bar from different sizes. ranging from 10 grams, 20 grams, 100 grams, and holy moly....500 grams! All 999.9% Gold! Mum & I was drooling over the 500 grams gold bar.

Unfortunately, I just don't have the money to buy all these luxury item at the moment. (>.<)~~~~ For now, I'll just admire them by looking at these photos that I took.

Thanks to my Mr. J & Mr. X from PYT Jeweller for sharing all the information, advice and their jokes that had entertained my mum and I during out visits at their shop. =)

Brunch at 'The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf' @ Novena Square [Singapore]

I was going back home to Kuala Lumpur after staying four nights stay at my bestie's place in Singapore. I usually take the coach back (First Coach) back home cause it was a cheaper alternative, as compared to flying or taking aeroline coach.

And only last month, I found out that the  Coffee Bean outlet at Novena Square offers 20% discount if you show them your bus ticket (on the same day of your departure). And not only that, you'll also get further discount for drinks if you order their meal, to make it as a meal set. So overall, we only paid $20 for all these!!!

Vanilla Latte (Regular) & Mocha Ice Blended.

Two breakfast meals - it was huge!!!!

Looks appetising right?

The breakfast meal is large. Look at the size! It took me a while to finish it.

If you're a small eater,  my advice is to share it.

After the meal, it was time to head back home (5 hours journey).

Here is a pic of my dear friends who send me off. Going to miss you all. =(

Bye bye Singapore....I'll be back soon.  

My Birthday Gift - Big Bottle of Lennox Firm Up Collagen Drink!!!

The other day, my buddy suprised me with a big bottle of Lennox Firm Up Collagen Drink for my belated birthday present. ^^ I have my suspicious when she called me and asked what is the name of the collagen drink I was taking as she explained that one of her colleague wanted to get one but was uncertain which brand. LOL.

Nevertheless, a big thanks to my buddy (Ja). I finally got another month supply of Collagen drink. What more can a girl ask for?!?!?! ^^

Belated Birthday Celebration - 3 times!

My birthday for this year was really special...not only I get to go on a lovely holiday getaway...upon my return I get to celebrate my belated birthday with my families & friends....3 times!!!

On my previous blog, I mentioned that my lovely families celebrated my belated birthday with this lovely (Healthy) cake.  

A few days later, met up with my high school mates and celebrated my birthday too.

A day later, my buddies surprised me with a belated birthday cake at her new place @ house warming  (Lov u OCY for arranging and planning).

All I can say....."Thank you from the bottom of my heart".

This birthday is the best because not only it is special (3x) but also because you all remembered.

 Best birthday gift for remembering and sharing this day with me.

Thank you. It really makes my day. Love ya all (u know who u are). ^^

Cafe Nemo for Breakfast @ Plaza Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur

Most important meal of the day is to have a hearty breakfast.

This morning mum & I decided to try out this place for breakfast. 

 Cute Name Card Design

Important drink of the day, one cup of coffee. *Taste was alright*

Love the omelet. Well cooked but decoration wise look simple.

Breakfast is only served until 11am.

Might return to try their other dishes for lunch or dinner.

I don't mind returning to have this omelet again though. ^^

Belated Birthday =)

Hi All! I'm back after missing for two weeks. Yup...my holiday in Europe was fantastic and there are so many stories & photos to share with you all. However, that posting will be much later. =p

Anyway, this year my birthday I was in Europe so my trip is more like a birthday present to me.   However, my lovely family and relatives decided to celebrate my belated birthday.

Ta daa...my birthday cake. It's better late than never right?  =)

 

It will not be complete without birthday candles and birthday song right? ^^

Big thanks to my dear daddy, mummy and the Lee's Family and nieces for the lovely thoughts.

 Love you all. =)

Lennox Firm Up Plus Collagen Drink

My last review on Lennox Firm Up Collagen Drink was a year ago...and I'm back again for this Collagen Drink. =) For those who are not familiar with Lennox Firm Up Collagen drink, it is a natural & potent beauty essence that is rich in synergistic food-based ingredients like Aqueous Marine Collagen, Co Enzyme Q10 & Vitamins. These natural ingredients work in unison with the Aqueous Marine Collagen, which is 100% water soluble due to its low molecular weight.

This boasts better digestibility and absorption by your body compared to other Conventional Collagen in the market. This enables your body to benefit faster and more effectively, making your skin firmer and more radiant looking.

Took the above photos last Saturday at Guardian. You'll need to buy these two big bottles of Collagen drink to enjoy these offer.  By the way, noticed the different pricing and packaging? You must be thinking why the pricing differed? Continue reading this post and you'll find out.  

If you're a fan of this product, you'll be happy to know that I had found a place where you can get this big bottle of Collagen drink cheaper (slightly) than the one you get from Watsons or Guadian. And you only need to get one big bottle instead of two to enjoy the offer....and you can get it at AA Pharmacy at Lucky Garden, Bangsar.

I was told that the prices of medicines and supplements at this Pharmacy are one of the cheapest in town. So last weekend when mum went there to get her supplement I decided to tag along.  I'm glad I did cause I found Lennox Firm Up + Collage Drink selling here at RM118! (nice number right?) 

There are other collagen drinks available too, such as NH Colla-Plus, Kinohimitsu Collagen drink and etc. Argh, why didn't I come here earlier which can saves me $$$$?!?  #Kicking myself#

Anyway, I bought one big bottle of Lennox Firm Up+ as I felt they are more economical choice for collagen drink as compared to others.  As mentioned earlier on their pricing and packaging, Lennox came out with a new version of collagen drinks called Firm Up Plus. 

If you buy these new big bottle of Collagen drink, you'll find 24 sachets of Antioxidant / Whitening essence (Powder form) inside. The Firm Up Plus requires to pour one sachet into the bottle drink before drinking.

Interesting right? Tell me what do you think of this new version. Will review once I complete all 24 bottles of drink. Can't wait!  =D
