Queen-like



Always impressed by the design and idyllic style of Aseana Cafe & Bar, I paid my visit last Friday after dated with Johnny Depp in The Dark Shadow; I expected to have more climax in the movie. Spotted some newly opened cafe in Straits Quay too!
It's located right besides Starbucks, you'll see the restaurant after get through the main entrance.
If there are seats for me to choose, I always go for sofa with pillows; I make myself at home everywhere, laugh! It's a good thing.
Oil-painted drawing hanging on the wall, you can find cuppa in each of those drawings, that's what we are searching for in coffee house.
That's the comfy part that I love, was busy taking beautiful photos instead of talking with my friends, like what I always do?
Decor on the long table that can fit big group; heart those flowers and petals in the grass, I thought of Beauty and the Beast, do you?
Wondering why my blog will half-shifted to become food blog, I like to have more posts about me, just food is part of me too, smile
Iced Cappucino . RM11
A shot of espresso poured over ice and chilled frothy milk, like the way they finished it with a dusting of chocolate.
Cafe Latte . RM11.50
A single shot of espresso infusion topped up with gently steamed milk and finished with a distinct 'lid' of froth. 
Potato Wedges . RM8
Big bowl of chunky chips served with sour cream and Thai sauce; I thought it was mayonnaise at first, how sad it's just cream.

So called the purple house



Another bowling day, the different for this time was I did not played with colleagues but with Yeam; I'm improving day by day! Laugh
After the play, we hunted for our lunch, the one I used to say it's a purple house - de Title Dining Cabin located at Lorong Selamat. 
If you know me well, the favorite color of mine is purple, pastel one; the interior is all with light purple, just like its exterior. Normally they will closed the first storey section where you could reserve it for some function or party, unless there is a huge crowd.
Posters regarding the on-going promotions filled on the empty walls, it was Friday, Ladies Day and I got myself unlimited buffet if I already have a main course with me, without extra pay for RM5. 
The rainbow color decor in the shop will be seen when you moving on to the buffet corner.
A lot of nice postcards and press cutting pasted on the wall; to be your read while you picking on the dessert, jelly and ice-cream.
You will think of lavender when people talk about purple color, that's why they use the dummy lavender for decoration as well. 
There are 2 choices of the soup, Tomato Cream Soup and Mushroom soup, surely I chose for the latter one to fit my main course.
Other that garlic bread, they have pieces of toast, some might not like the garlic taste; they are good to please all type of customers.
Grilled Boneless Chicken Drum with Romesco Sauce . RM22.90
Chicken is well marinated and grilled, served with baked potato wedges, mushroom config and gokien chips, wine is mixed in the sauce.
Spaghetti Seafood Marinara . RM25.90
Differ with others seafood pasta that only served small amount of seafood, here they served quite a number of fresh king prawns, scallops and calamaris! Spaghetti is cooked in a riched homemade tomato concasse which also mixed with wine, to boost the taste.

Happy Mother's Day



We postponed celebration of Mother's Day to Wednesday, just to avoid the crowd; yet I need rush to meet up my family after my work.
There's where they waited me in Evergreen Laurel Hotel's lobby, my daddy said the Lounge looks great with all the Jazz music playing on the night. My first time to pay a visit to Cafe Laurel, which is quite famous with their buffet dinner. The buffet cuisines are vary daily, we chose to have fusion and international cuisines, people were quite a lot until some of them need to have seat outside the cafe.
My all time favorite - Sashimi! Took quite a big portion, ended up mostly finished by me and sister, daddy ate a few, stomach not very well, that was why couldn't have raw food intake. My mom don't like raw and cold food, yet sushi roll fit her quite well.
Mom always couldn't resist to their dessert, especially cakes; believe no she actually finished this plate of cakes and wished for more? Laugh

Moo moo~



Rain just fell when I wanted to go out, good or bad? Good because the weather is hot nowadays, bad because I don't like raining when I'm at outside. Luckily the rain stopped when I step out from my house, hooray
It's a craze now in town with Frozen Yogurt, first with Tutti Frutti, Kiwiberry, Fruuze and now we have Moo Cow at Paragon, Gurney!
A colorful shop with a cow standing in front, ever see this cow moo-ing when you pass by paragon? Laugh. It brings the meadow feel. 
Once stepped inside the shop, you will find this wood block; there are 3 flavors to be chosen and they are seasonal, flavors will be changed every few months. The topping choices are not many like Tutti Frutti yet they are more than enough.
If you don't know which flavor to choose with, you can have a taste on each of them first before you place your order.
Bell on top of the table, thought they will ring it when our order is served, yet I never heard a ring that night, might be a decor only.
Found this cutie sheep placed at the cashier, quite heavy tho.
My Moo Cow Frozen Yogurt, original flavor topped with almond sliver (RM9.90); heart their napkin design.
You will get this card to collect stamp, free gift will be given get when you finished 15 Moo Cow Frozen Yogurt, the cutie sheep? Laugh
They shop look like a farm, with all the decor and colors; as well as their yogurt cup, with the family faces printed on the top, cute!
It's like stepping on the grass, meadow field! Somewhere I wish to go for my holiday break.

When will be the getaway?

Went to cousin's wedding at Alor Setar last Sunday, quite a rush one as I don't have Wesak Day replacement on the next day, how sad!
Love this photo of the day, a little sneak peak on my outfit. Laugh

안녕하세요



Longing for Korean food for a month, so lucky to find myself some good accompanies to Aza Aza Starvil. Together with some of my colleagues and ex-colleagues, laugh, we went for the Korean Cuisine after our work. 
It's not easy to find an authentic Korean restaurant in Penang; the owner of the restaurant is a Korean and marry with a Malaysian girl.
Here come our free flow side dishes, normally in a Korean restaurant you will get to eat their Kimchi, seasoned vegetables, homemade rice crackers and mash potato. The mash potato is awesome and we refilled it for times.
Japchae . RM19.90
It's Korean sweet potato noodle a.k.a winter noodles pan fried with pork and vegetables; recommended by the owner, it was quite okay.
Aza Aza Special BBQ . RM24.90
Another dishes recommended by the owner with house signature spicy marinated pork, they have waiters to serve you on this.
The barbecue meat is served together with lettuce leaves and onions, great combination!
Kimchi Jjigae . RM17.90
My favourite kimchi stew with sliced pork, tofu and cellophane noodles, you can choose either it served with white rice or ramen.
Dolsot Bibimbap . RM13.90
Always see it in drama and now I was actually having it in real! Hot stone bowl rice with egg, seaweed and vegetables, served with a bowl of seaweed soup. It will be nicer if they mix with spicy-er sauce. 
Ddeokbokki . RM19.90
Another signature dish for Korean restaurant, spicy fried Korean rice cake with pork and vegetables. Chewy.
Finally got my satisfaction over here, yet I still miss the one I had at Kuala Lumpur, even nicer than here. Laugh

Pitter-Patter



A blink of eyes, May came and chucked April away from us, that was how my quarter year finished with lots of love from friends and family; more to come! I'm standing still on my place, I realized it's time for me/us to step forward, to chase for our bigger dream. 
Early of May, the season of rain.
