  • Dinner At Jemputree Tree House Restaurant

    Dinner At Jemputree Tree House Restaurant

    On a lovely evening, I went dating with my dearest one, Hueisean at the tree house restaurant on Burma Road, the Jemputree Restaurant. It’s a Malay style tree house serving halal western and local Malay cuisine. I was kinda attracted by the tree house concept and it’s kinda cool and cute.

    It was a Tuesday night and there’s not many people at there so we could go up the tree house and for your information, there’s only one tree house seating. It’s actually not a tree house, it’s a elevated platform right under the tree, so it seems to be dining on a “tree house”. Some says that the area need to be made reserve as it’s quite a hot spot.

    Anyway, let’s get into the food of that night. I didn’t feel of having local food that night, so I went for western food ala Asian style. I ordered the local famous Chicken Cordon Blue. Surprisingly, the chicken is kinda small in portion. Taste is O-K but too little. It’s kinda not enough for the small stomach of mine.

    Next up is a pizza, the Hawaiian Chicken pizza. Wanted to order the four season but it’s out of stock and hawaiian chicken it was. Thin crust pizza with cheesy ingredient. Yummy, but the ingredient doesn’t stick to the bread well.

    Overall, the food is OK-GOOD only. It’s just another nice place to chill out with friends of have a romantic time on the tree. =) Beware of mosquitoes.

  • Dinner at Who’s Bryan Cafe, Raja Uda

    Dinner at Who’s Bryan Cafe, Raja Uda

    Recently, I just found out that Raja Uda of Butterworth has many hidden gems. There’s lots of nice cafe, and food lying around Raja Uda, Butterworth area. Luckily, Penang island and butterworth is only just a little sea across or to be specific, half an hour away. I should go there hunt for food more. =)

    So one fine tuesday, I went over to Raja Uda for dinner. At first, I wanted to go for the famous tomyam noodle but then it didn’t open that day. Weird. Then I just went around Raja Uda area to look for restaurant randomly and I found this nice looking restaurant + cafe, Who’s Bryan, located on Jalan Ong Yi How, somewhere near Jalan Raja Uda.

    It was kinda late already and feeling hungry, so I didn’t care about looking for other already, so dearest and I just went in and sit down.

    It’s a nice looking restaurant. The interior is quite nice, with live band playing nice Chinese music at there, the atmosphere seems good for youngster to hangout and chit chat.

    Well, looking at the menu, they serve mainly western food with some local dishes like fried rice.

    There’s also combo or also known as set meal for some where you top up some money and get extras like soup, salad and beverage.

    Let’s go into the food. I ordered my main course with the combo D, so it comes with a mushroom soup, with a little garlic bread cube in it. Tasted a little bit salty but kinda nice. I like this.

    Then the next thing that come with the combo is the salad. It’s just vegetable, plain salad with very little sauce and it’s not so nice because of that little sauce.

    Here comes the main course. It’s the spaghetti bolognese, chicken. To be honest, it’s so-so only. It seems like asian style to me instead of western-ish feel with creamy bolognese sauce. I should try other food next time.

    So, the food is so-so only but this is a nice place to hang out and chit chat with friends at night because of the atmosphere, live band and some snacks to order, there’s beer too! If got chance will go back and try other food. =)

  • A Dinner at Ferringhi Garden Restaurant, Batu Ferringhi

    A Dinner at Ferringhi Garden Restaurant, Batu Ferringhi

    A week ago, I went to dinner with my dearest Hueisean to celebrate our five months together. Ok stop here for the story. Haha. I have been hearing a lot about Ferringhi Garden and finally I got a chance to go check it out. It’s really a nicely decorated restaurant with a lot of greens and lights. It’s really like dining out in the garden but because of hating the mosquito, I picked to dine indoor. The indoor’s atmosphere is still awesome.

    The restaurant is very easy to be seen, they have a huge signboard at Batu Ferringhi after Park Royal Hotel. The pricing are quite expensive, starts from RM25++.

    First up, they served garlic bread as appertizer and it’s just a normal garlic bread to me.

    I ordered an oriental style chicken chop. The sauce is kinda sweet and nice. As for the chicken, it’s just battered and deep fried. Not a bad one.

    My friend ordered a fish and chip. Deep fried again but somehow, I feel this is better than the chicken chop. =)

    Lastly, I ordered a dessert. It’s a chesse cake with a scoop of strawberry ice cream. Well, this dessert is the best part of the night. The cheese cake has chocolate biscuit at the bottom and the strawberry ice cream is delicious. =D

    To conclude about the restaurant, it’s a romantic place to go with your loves one, but the price is the point that is repelling me. However, if there’s birthday or other occassion, I may go back again.

    And one more thing, Happy New Year! May your 2011 filled with awesome foods.

  • Breakfast at Dome Cafe, KLCC

    Breakfast at Dome Cafe, KLCC

    Dad brought me to DOME for breakfast at KLCC last weekend. We were actually wanted to go to Mandarin Oriental Hotel for dim sum breakfast but then the restaurant wasn’t open that day. So went to walk around Suria KLCC to look for breakfast and we found DOME.

    Food price at Dome Cafe would be rather expensive but we had no choice but to breakfast in there because mom and dad are not a fast food person. I ordered myself a cup of hot chocolate. Expensive stuff comes with a nice chocolate presentation on a nice Dome cup.

    Ta-daa. Here is my Chicken Ham and Eggs on Toast. The egg, the ham is awesome and also the sauce too. Just that, I wonder why English’s croissant is so hard to bite.

  • Chicken Chop at Penang INTI College’s Bigbites Cafeteria

    Chicken Chop at Penang INTI College’s Bigbites Cafeteria

    Went to listen a talk today at INTI International College far away at Bukit Jambul today to know more about my future studies. I was hungry and straight go check their canteen/cafeteria out. The college was small and the canteen too. There’s only one stall and it’s called Bigbites. Saw Chicken Chop from the menu and was craving for it and ordered one for lunch.

    It’s RM6.50. It’s super simple, chicken chop and fries. The chicken was really crispy and few sauce to choose from as topping, there’s black pepper sauce, mushroom sauce and oriental sauce. I chose the black pepper sauce. Overall, it’s crispy but not healthy, very oily and no salad like other western food. =)
