Recipe taken from My Kitchen Snippets. I reduced the fat used to 140g butter and 60g canola oil (instead of recipe saying  226g of butter), reduced the sugar to 150g as well (instead of originally 200gm)

raisin which has been left to soak in rum for few days is left to drain over a bowl, so that the rum could be mixed into the cake batter in earlier stage, and the raisin be mixed in towards the end.

butter, canola oil and sugar. Decreased the butter and add in oil to make a lighter cake.

eggs and orange zest added in

raisins mixed in with some flour so that it doesn’t sink to the bottom of the cake. Lastly. add the raisins into the batter.

looks nice 🙂

done, looks nice here 🙂

cross section, quite a nice cake with soft raisins and definite rum scent, will probably make this again perhaps in cupcake form

Recipe taken from nava-k. Made some modification as below

– Used 200g block of Emborg butter instead of 1 cup of butter(240g). I would not use Emborg butter anymore as this lemon cake turns out very milky although not added any milk, the only form of dairy is from butter

– Used 160 sugar instead of 225g

– should have used 3 large egg instead of 3 medium sized egg as the batter turn out looking quick thick

– used 2 tsp baking powder(following advice from Food52 of 1 cup flour to 1 tsp baking powder) instead of 1.5 tsp

flour(sifted), eggs, lemon juice, lemon rind, butter, sugar

beat butter and sugar till fluffy

add eggs one at a time and beat till fluffy

batter is quite thick as i used medium eggs instead of big ones

done

bottom up

Overall, i find the texture grainy and too milky taste, won’t make it again.

Went to Spasso Milano in Pavillion shopping center Level 6, there have antipasti buffet available daily from noon till 3pm for RM28++

fresh salad

grilled peppers, …, baked pumpkin which is really yummy, and grilled potato&grilled zuchini which is really good as well

Asparagus soup and savoury red bean soup which is surprisingly not bad

salad dressing and toppings

baked mussels

roast chicken with rosemary which is quite good

garlic  bread, fritatta etc

left is salty red bean soup and asparagus soup to the right

ham spaghetti, roast chicken etc

there is no complimentary drinks or water :S

clams etc

love the baked pumpkins, clams, chicken, and dipping garlic bread into soup

cakes are alright, mostly soft mousse type

Overall, i don’t think it is such a good deal as there is no drinks available. We have to pay for bottled water :S I wonder whether antipasto buffet in Senja Italian restaurant (RM35++) in Saujana Hotel, Shah Alam will have drinks included, but then it is too far out of the city.
