Traditional English Afternoon Tea Set @ Delicious

Traditional English Afternoon Tea Set : For 2 pax Consists of : 
3 Scones
6 Assortment of Finger Sandwiches
2 Duck Confit in Filo Pastry
2 Strawberry Chocolate Dip
2 Handrolled Chocolate Truffles
3 Rosemary & Cheese Cookies
1 Slice of Cake or Dessert on Display
Any 2 Cups of Hot Tea / Coffee (Illy Coffee)

I add a tea set with free refill. 

1 cup of tea is never enough especially with a great company :)

A chamomile tea with lemon slice. Super fresh and awakening  

I'm not a sweet lover but surprisingly i do love this Berrilicious Chocolate Pavlova

2 of my friends said that this cake is overly sweet. I do agree with them but if you know how to eat this cake properly, then you can actually subset the sweetness with the sour of the strawberry plus with the bitterness of the chocolate dipping. So, to get the unique sensation of this particular cake, you got to eat everything at once, -not whole cake at once-, i mean everything must be there for each bite. The best part is , when the cake actually melting once it inside our mouth. Yum yumm

See how this dessert make me happy like a kid :)

Some other pastries 

Vidi and me relaxing after shopping the whole day ;)

Overall, we love the ambiance of the restaurant setting in Mid valley. 

Colorful, open air and comfortable sitting arrangement. Very supportive for this afternoon tea time ritual with friends. We just chills and chat for hours accompanied by sweets and hot teas. Best idea for lovely afternoon.

Paddington House of Pancakes @ Mid Valley

Sweet and Yummy

Whenever you craving for something sweet but at the same time you want to have a meal that can make you full, this restaurant is the best option.

Introduced by Vidi, I felt in love with this restaurant since my 1st visit.

Cozy ambiance and well presented dishes make me feel so comfortable having dinner here while having a long chat with my friends. The pricing here is not bad at all. 

Very affordable for such delight.

Me, Vidi and Joff before our dinner

See below what we ordered:

Chocolate Pancakes with Strawberry and Mashmellow

Topping: Sugar powder and chocolate sauce

Perfect with a scoop of chocolate ice cream

For those who are very hungry, steak pancake can be a good menu

3 layers american pancake with grill chicken breast

Side dish: Potatoes wedges and salad

My Favorite: Banana Pancake with Vanilla ice cream

See how mouth watering they are and seriously it taste so perfect.

I recommend this restaurant very much.

Why Maybank should give me tickets to Legoland

1. Because i'm SUPER HUGE LEGO fansss

   Me and Ms.LegoGiraffe @Lego Discover centre Berlin,Germany

She absolutely have a gorgeous lipstick, slim long legs and super cute sunflower hair clip

Me and Helen, a friend from Taiwan visiting the Legoland discovery Centre @Berlin

2. Since i was a baby, my passion is to become a LEGO designer

  See legomans that i created during my visit to LEGO Store in Berlin. 

Pretty cool right?? ^.^V

After finish created them, its time pack them and bring them home for gift

3. I want to have photos with the Three Cameras Legoman

    Saw my friend, Jeffrey's photos in facebook and since then i'm dying to have the same photo with this adorable Three Cameras Legoman. 

I believe we are a soul-mate as we do have the same hobby:

Carrying cameras ^0^

4. To get my driving license

    Only in Legoland can get DRIVING LICENCE at the age of 6!!

    I'm 24 and there still no clue that i'm going to get a real driving licence pretty soon. 

So, Legoland is my only hope!!!!!!

I gotta have this, no matter what!!!

Driving seems to be so much fun. Jealous!!!

5. I want to get my own minifigure

   Last time i was so busy creating mini figures for my friends and family as i want to brought it back as gift to them. At the end i don't have one for my self. Back to Berlin obviously is not an option for now. 

So pleaseeeeeeeeee MAYBANK, give me a ticket to legoland.

 I have to get my own minifigure before everything is too little too late!

Took one last photo with Woody from toy story before leaving the store

Suki-Ya All you can eat sukiyaki and shabu-shabu

 I was passing by Suki-ya when suddenly noticing a mouth watering smell of soup and when i saw inside the restaurant, it was full house and all the smoke is so dramatic ahhahahaha. Directly i decided to had dinner there.Yes, no second thought LOL

Called some friends who are in Mid-Valley mall and luckily they want to come to pavilion to have this steamboat dinner together. It is because i love to have steamboat with many people. Feel more alive and merrier also the non-stop refilling part is so much fun! This is how steamboat dinning supposed to be right?? ;) 

Here we are; The non-stop refilling crews ^0^

The Healthy Bar
Limited choices i would say

consist of few types of vegie and mashroom. The fishcake is premium grad with cheese inside, the boys loved it! some meatballs and the only seafood is clam :((

  See below are some pic of the restaurant setting

They have three type of meat: Lamb, Beef and chicken.

For that night, we only asked for beef and chicken. 

Don't know why no body order the lamb 

Haahahahahhaha

Beef slices

Chicken Slices

For the soup, if i'm not mistaken there are 4 choices, but i only remember 3 which are kimchi, sukiyaki and shabu-shabu. The clear soup on the right side is shabu-shabu and in my opinion, this soup is a must to have. When u have enough enjoyed the Kimchi (spicy soup) or Sukiyaki (sweet soup), the neutral taste of shabu-shabu soup will balance out the food taste so that we can still continue to eat! trust me, it's work!

Pictures time while waiting the soup boiled ;)

We stayed for around 2 hours and the whole time, none of us remember to took picture of the food while it on the pot. Directly after opened the cover, we attached the food as we all are super hungry at that time. it was almost 9pm already. So this is the only photo i have for our dinner hahahahah

Obviously someone is a camera alert LoL ^0^

Dessert: green tea and chocolate ice cream only

This is my 1st time trying the green tea ice cream, taste quite fun. still can't beat my favorite: yam flavor

Snack while resting from the main food 

Overall i gave 7/10 for this restaurant. The quality of the food is good but it so limited choices there for a buffet. For adult after tax, dinner will cost RM 46. This restaurant is located in Pavillion 6th floor, The Tokyo  Street.

Koryo-Won @ Starhill

 Another fine dining in Starhill, opposite Pavillion Mall Bukit Bintang

This time Korean cuisine
This restaurant said to be have the finest smoke barbecue cuisine in Klang Valley by food.malaysiamostwanted.com

See this curros and its chocolate dipping?

Of course this restaurant doesn't serve curros, 

we actually take away bought this on the upstair restaurant (forget the name),

still in Starhill and had it as appetizer ;)

We passed by the curros shop on our way to Koryo-Won and couldn't handle 

our self not to bought it ^0^

Rice

1st round coming. I don't have any idea what we ordered as 

i'm actually not a fans of Korean food. 

But i know there is something called Kimchi there ^.^V

Main dish. 

You can actually choose to barbecue your own meat OR ask them to serve directly 

the cooked dishes. We chose to skip all the troubles barbecuing because we came quite late already and most importantly to avoid the smoke. ^0^

See the beautiful color of the beef and it seriously taste good and smell great

Bon Appetite

As a 5 starts restaurant, dine in here of course not cheap

It cost us around RM375++ if im not mistaken, but it really worthed  i would say.

Even though i haven't been to a lot of Korean restaurant, 

this will be my recommendation if anyone ever ask me 

where to have Korean food. 

Comparison won't be necessary once you know you have tasted the best!
