A porky treat by bf sister. The restaurant is just opposite Bangsar Village.

Complimentary bread

Spanish peppers stuffed with minced pork, RM18, just okay

Roast pork belly, RM22

Roast suckling pick with fried potato and salad, very soft, i find it doesn’t have much taste though in comparison to chinese type of suckling pig

Platter of cold cuts for 2(RM54) – Iberico, Serano, Parma Ham, Speck, Chorizo with melon and olive. All taste salty and melt in the mouth. An experience to eat some of the most expensive ham.

I think the above is Paella mixta with chicken, fish, squid, prawn etc, RM68, very nice!

… just okay

Chorizos – spicy spanish sausage with confit potato, love the potato cooked in pork fat probably, RM16

Overall, i really like their paella, yummy!

Cornershop in SS2

Set for 2 pax RM128 which includes one 550g lobster which is really small, we top up RM20 to get the 700g one.

Set for 4 pax(RM218) which includes only one 550g lobster

i think this is the 550g lobster

escargot

mussel with suspicious looking cream sauce

yummy pumpkin carrot soup i think

mushroom soup

my favourite new england style, boiled lobster eaten with melted butter, simple and nice

Charbroiled

Steamed chinese style with spring onion, which look the biggest among the 3 lobsters although they are supposedly all 700g

mixed grill included in the set

yucky cream sauce again on seafood rice, should have asked for the tomato based one

simple fruit with whipped cream, nice

Consider this an economical way of having a lobster meal, less than RM200 for a lobster meal for 2 pax, inclusive of one 700g lobster.

Sharing the Passion

feelingdiary

Ingredients in metric as above, recipe taken from The Life & Loves of Grumpy’s Honeybunch

If you were to ask me, baking is not hard, the harder part is getting every ingredient ready, purchasing them, weighing them, and moments when in the middle of a recipe found out there is no sugar/egg… in the house, and have to rush out to buy them etc etc.

This time i didn’t decrease the total sugar amount, instead i used mostly brown sugar(more brown sugar than specified, and less caster sugar than in the recipe) around 70g caster and 180g brown sugar

freshly ground cinnamon and flour

sift the cinnamon

ingredients: white and brown sugar, raisins, rolled oat, flour, egg, vanilla etc

the butter and sugar could hardly be creamed, instead it ended up in clumps

Fortunately it looks shiny after eggs are beaten in

blend in flour, oatmeal, raisins

tablespoonfuls

I kind of under-baked them resulting in soft cookies instead of crispy ones

rack of cookies

Err, i don’t really like this kind of soft cookie i guess, perhaps it will be better if i further bake them till crispy

Flour cooked with water to make a roux

Recipe taken from Kitchen Corner, i think i will not make many bread recipe as home-made bread taste tougher and harder than store bought ones, so far my favourite bakery shop is Free Mori, bought their “Sampan” which is a crispy danish with fragrant salty butter taste topped with cream cheese and blueberry, yum~

fully cooked

topped with cling wrap straight away to prevent skin from forming.

butter, flour(bread flour + plain flour), milk powder, caster sugar, yeast, salt

mixed with water and egg

It was very liquidy although i followed the recipe closely

Had to add lots of flour to finally form it into a dough

egg glaze and pizza topping

Done

my aunts said it was nice but i find it just ok

We left KL Friday night for Cameron, and left Cameron around Saturday late afternoon back to KL, a very impromptu trip decided on a day of two before, stayed in 2nd floor of shop house converted into a spacious apartment with 3 rooms. 2 of the bedroom are with 2 queen size beds, while the other one with a single queen size bed.

spacious hallway

kitchenette with a toilet next to it

Yummy noodle with sourish soup for breakfast

Visited an orang asli settlement which will leads to rafflesia blooming area – Temiar Rafflesia Sanctum

Old Frens Cafe for lunch

Fried beancurd sheet with fish paste

Fried vermicelli

Fried rice

Steamed kampung chicken

Fried paku

Tofu (soy beancurd)

On the way back from Cameron to KL, we took the old way through narrow road leading to Tapah town, stopped by Hutan Lipur Kuala Woh

The water is crazy hot in some spots of the river bed, cold water flowing from upstream will become hot when passing through this area.

Bakso stall in Tapah town

Beef meatball with pepperish soup, not bad

A very popular food stall
