Nice place for nasi lemak! Smile Oct 05, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Food Court

This place is tucked away in a quiet corner of MBS. The place is clean and nice but I think location is not that good - so not many crowd here. But that's good for us, as it means no problem getting good seats and fast service.

If you are there, try their set Nasi Lemak andchoose the 'bua long long' juice. It is so pure and tasty I think this is easily one of the top drink in my list. It is pressed right on the spot and is as fresh as you can get. 

The chicken wing is extremely cruncy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The rice is also very frangrant and is green in colour, most likely from the frangrant pandan leaves.

The penang laksa is the most disappointing (considering it is a chef special). It is not served with lots of fresh mint leaves and the hae kor taste is not strong enough. I will not order that again next time. 

Overall, it is above average. Will be back.

Great charcoal Thai BBQ Smile Sep 27, 2014

Categories : Thai | Restaurant | Buffet | Mookata

Made a reservation so it is fast and no problem. We ordered the set and it comes fast. The secret is not the food but the sauce they provided. It goes extremely well with the food - especially the green sauce. It has the tangy sweet taste that makes the meat taste so juicy and appetizing! 

There are many more choices now so if Food could be more, considering the price paid,it will be great!

Excellent Wagu BBQ Beef Smile Sep 27, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Korean | Ramen | Chinese Soup | Steaks and Grills | Korean BBQ

Nice BBQ open concept restaurant. Tried their Wagu beef BBQ set - it's so oily but so fragrant after BBQ. Sad to say, the quantity is not a lot (unlike typical Korean BBQ buffet Spead). But this is great if you are not extremely hungry but wanted to a taste of higher end meat. We did feel satisified indeed. 

Some items are cheap. like the ramen noddle and taste just as good.

A nice relaxed afternoon Smile Jun 23, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western Variety | Kids-Friendly

Sometimes, you just want a cool relaxed place to have some comfot food in a hot afternoon. IKEA comes to mind at such times. This time round, we tried their cheesecake dessert  -not too bad (3 for $1). Also tried their chicken curry as well - spicy as usual. My son loved it. 

Of course, most people go for the fried chicken wings - we ordered some but
were trying not to over eat as it is fried very well. We also ordered the salmon steak - steamed and healthy. 

With the IKEA card, you get free coffee/ tea and discount on selected meals. So, it's really worth it. 

Overall, other than the over crowded place (at anytime of the day), it is still a nice place to chill, relax and do a little home deco shopping at IKEA once in a while.

BTW - diners are encouraged to clear their own plates after dining - and I like that culture. smile

Tea time in the neighbourhood Smile Dec 18, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Fusion | Café | Desserts and Cakes | Ice Cream and Gelato | Burgers and Sandwiches

This place is like a museum of old and memorable stuff. The owner seems to like collecting old clocks, signs etc and proudly displays them in the shop. Even the table is converted from an old sewing machine!

I wouldn't call this place exactly romantic for a place to have a nice cuppa as I feel that too much of these antiques make the place looks a tad messy somewhat. I like things clean and tidy in general but that's just me. However, the owners are very sweet and charming, so it makes this place special somewhat with the human factor.

Food wise, recommended is the Coconut Kueh with French Vanilla Ice Cream ($6.50) which we tried. We loved the coconut taste and it is served hot. The taste is good and we live it. However, it seems to be microwaved hot and I am not a fan of microwave too.

We did not have time to try the rest of the food here as we just had a heavy dinner. Next time we are nearby, we might just drop in again to taste other specials. smile
