I'm kinda MIA for almost 2 months now, was really no mood to face the screen after my work so I neglected here which I shouldn't be. Glad that I willing to face the screen now on this day to make my blog alive again. Let's talk about the month I love the most throughout the year, April. Normally people will love their birthday month than others, I love December too as it means the year is going to renew again, we can finally forget anything bad that happen (if any) and start our aim again. Hmmm.
Chinese red eggs that cooked/made by mum, surely will get it in pairs each year and I share them with BenDan this year. I never throw out a party on my birthday as I know this is the day where my mum suffered a lot to get me out; so what we did were to have dinner together with my parents and I celebrated my birthday together with my dad's as we are just 5 days different in the month.
As of my love, he brought me to have dinner at Spoon Cafe that located inside G Hotel Kelawai, and this property is just newly open I think early of this year. This was actually a surprise for me but I don't know why I always get the hunch on what he is up to, so no surprise for me this year (but the birthday pressie is really a surprise for me tho) but we are okay with it, we are the kind of couple that don't really enjoy big surprise. Thank you BenDan for the dinner!
We made our reservation 2 weeks before my birthday, and we found out that diners on that night were not much maybe because of this place is still new. The good thing about less diners was the waiter let us choose where we want to be seated, so we got our seats next to the French window and got ourselves the rainy nightview during dinner.
Forgive me that I didn't mention that Spoon Cafe served buffet dinner (and brunch buffet only on Sunday) and the theme on that day was Latino Night Buffet Dinner which I don't see the theme anymore in their website. They changed the theme somehow, but still I think this is no harm, all you need to do is call for reservation and ask for the theme if you really care. The dishware in Spoon Cafe is in bronze-like, which is quite surprise me and the whole environment is mainly in earth color which I feel so cool to me. Plain ice or warm water is served and you may add on RM45 per person to get free-flow of house beer or wine, other beverages are chargeable as well.
Almost same like other buffet dinners, they do have several corners for you to stuff your stomach, I remembered that the dessert corner is the place I went the least. They do have chocolate fondue that you will scream out loud if you are chocolate lover. I love the way they 'store' their main dishes with heavy ceramic cover which I found in nowhere. Barbecue corner is available too but too bad the choices for you to pick are limited, I guess it is because of the theme.
I got myself the mushroom clear soup which I found it quite special, but I only finished the diced mushrooms and chickens as I need extra space for the food instead of the clear soup. Some dishes that I love the most that night are roasted duck slices (this is heavenly good), pan grilled fish with tomato salsa, honey roasted potatoes (I always have a thing with potatoes) and the Gambas Pil Pil (prawns that cooked with chilli and garlic). Overall, it is quite good and the service are great as well; the waiter gave us 20% discount that night due to the newly opening I guess.
