Hezri's Birthday Lunch at Rama V Fine Thai Cuisine, Jalan U-Thant

Salam all,

Nak celebrate Hezri's birthday punyalah susah sebab we are so packed with activities every weekend. Especially with kenduri. Dalam bulan Jun, tiap-tiap hujung minggu ada kenduri sampai I rasa penat. Just nak stay home and sleep. Sebenarnya pada hari ni juga kami ada kenduri. so sad. 10.30 pagi pergi kenduri, dalam pukul 1 pm, terus datang ke Rama V, jalan U-Thant.

Why I choose Rama V for birthday celebration? sebab I baca nice review about this place and kami tak pernah makan Thai fine dining lagi. Kalau birthday je, mesti steak. So lets do something different this time.

Tak susah nak cari restaurant ni, masuk Jalan U Thant and restaurant cum bungalow ni ada di tepi jalan sahaja.

Just got back from kenduri and we are still in baju kurung lagi and yes, thats my MIL

Restaurant ni sangat nice, cozy and tenang sebab tak ramai orang.

Appetizers

YAM PLA DUK FU

Spicy crispy catfish salad with sliced mango sauce

RM24

OMG this is sedap gila! sauce tu ada masam manis pedas, bila makan everything blends so well! with onions, mint leaves and chillies. Catfish crackers pun sedap. This is my first time having catfish as crackers.

CHOR LADDA

Flower shaped dumpling stuffed with minced chicken & peanuts

RM22

These are too pretty to eat. I love the sweet filling, macam kuah rojak pun ada. tapi bila makan more than two, rasa macam muak. maybe sebab kulit dumpling tu a bit thick.

GAENG PED POLL LINCHEE

Roasted Duck Red Curry With Lychee

RM 30

To be honest, this dish abit salty and kuah dia pekat sangat. Rasa muak pun ada. But I suka combination of the lychee with curry, weird but it works.

Stir fried soft shell crab with aromatic Thai  Curry Powder

RM30

Seriously this is not what I had in mind, I ingatkan dia goreng kering, rupanya with curry sauce juga. Bad decision. Another muak dish! Orang Thai memang tak kedekut use coconut milk in their food.

Tapi ada daun limau purut to save the dish, bagi bau yang sangat menarik

White Snapper Steamed with chillies and lime

RM60

This is my favourite dish, nombor dua lepas catfish salad. Cuma dalam steamed fish ni pun diorang letak santan juga. wah wah, banyak benor kelapa kat kedai ni. But if they add more chillies, lagi extra kick!

Nothing can go wrong with this meal kan?

Fish, lime and chillies memang perfect combination dah pun

Desserts :

Cendol, Taro & Sticky Rice in Coconut Milk

RM11

Just like normal cendol, tapi I tak really like it. Lack of X factor.

Water Chestnut Dumplings with jack fruits in coconut milk

RM11

I  can easily finish two bowls of these. Sedap gila!

Pumpkin Custards, one of their famous desserts.

RM11

 Hezri tak suka dessert ni. I memang peminat pumpkin, any kind of cooking, soup, pengat, puding yang ada labu, Im okay with it :) but yeah, cant deny the egg smell abit strong. Turn off a little bit.

Total cost of our lunch :

RM 273.75 include tax and 1.5ltre Evian mineral water

Not cheap.

Lets go to steakhouse on my birthday.

xoxo

Hezri's Birthday Cake by Le Chouette Macaron

Salam all,

Last weekend, kitorang celebrate birthday hezri. Agak terkejar juga sebab weekends memang packed with  kenduri and menyalang ( thats what orang nogori called for activity bawak menantu baru visit rumah saudara mara )

I dah placed order for hezri's birthday cake around akhir april, sebulan lebih awal before the exact date, semangat sangat iolls.

This year cake ditempah dengan favourite baker, wahdi farhad from Le Chouette Macaron

He did my wedding cake for majlis bertandang. Visit the post here : wedding cake by le chouette macaron

Masa I tengok topchef : just desserts series, I perasan one of the contestant, Yigit ada buat petals cake, sangat lawa. So I requested for wahdi to did one for me too. Then, I minta dia tambah macarons on top.

Mula-mula I nak customised, suruh buat design kereta or arsenal badge. tapi last-last I mintak for bright colored macaron. Wahdi never fail to impress me with his artwork.

Tengok, sangat cantik kan cake ni? I couldnt stop taking photos!

The macarons of course manis sangat tapi the cake just nice :)

I minta three layers cake, strawberry, lemon and butterscotch.

The twins so excited over Pak Busu's birthday cake. Tak sabar nak potong hehe

I brought some to my school the next day, my students semua suka sebab colorful. Budak-budak memang suka makan kek pun kan?

After habis potong kek, Hezri said, " This is actually your cake, you want this cake kan? not me"

Tettttt

You can follow wahdi_farhad on his instagram to see more of his artwork. He is famous for macaron towers :)

Ben's General Food Store at Bangsar Village

Salam,

Early September is my best friend's birthday. So i decided to bring her out for the whole day, just do the girly stuff, ( mani pedi etc) and have a proper dinner. just the two of us. yes, I am a very romantic person.

Tiba-tiba je, her parents were in town and she need to spend time with them. takpe, family comes first!

so i just ada masa for dinner je with her. Itu pun dah lambat. we decided to go to Bangsar and I ajak dia try Bens General Food Store di Bangsar Village.



Latte RM7.90



 I love the decoration on my latte :)



Caesar Salad Rm12.90



 For appetizer, we chose caesar salad, portion nya quite small and tak puas makan. tapi with that price, i'll pass. kalau add grilled chicken sure lagi sedap.



Pescatora Pizza RM31.90



 Then we shared this pescatora pizza. Highly recommended! Thin crust and very cheezyyyy. super sedap!

Nampak kecil tapi sangat fulfilling.



Tomatoes, Mozarella, garlic ( loads of them) , mixed seafood of shrimps, squid, fish and mussels.



Pizza ni sangat flavourful. You gotta try it yourself. 

It is a must to have cake on birthday. ( at least, for me)

 Kalau nak beli one whole cake, rasa macam sangat membazir sebab dua orang je makan so we ordered one slice of RV. too bad, the cake is quite dry. I tak really enjoy this :(



Red Velvet





The birthday girl still in baju kurung. busuk punya orang ( x_x)



I will come again soon. Their food selection agak limited tapi nampak macam semua nya sedap. 

so mesti cuba menu lain pula. till then

xoxo! 

Ayah 's belated birthday @ Las Vacas, Mont Kiara

Salam,

Raya ke lima, my family and I semua ke KL to celebrate my cousin's wedding. so i ambil kesempatan ini to celebrate my dad's birthday. Actually birthday ayah dalam bulan ramadhan hari tu, and susah nak bawak dia keluar celebrate sebab sayang terawikh.

Pagi-pagi kitorang pergi KLCC, lepas kan angin mak nak shopping then tengahri kitorang pergi muzium kesenian islam. and ayah very excited. dia memang suka kalau bab-bab history ni. I dengan mak bergossip kt bench hehe. ayah cakap he could spend one whole day there. he read everything and boleh explain balik to us. oh my, glad he enjoyed the trip.

Then we went for an early dinner, sebab pukul 8pm kena pergi sime darby for wedding rehearsal.

ignore my sepetness. tak cukup tidur mungkin.



Appetizer : Beef Wrap RM18



I memang suka beef wrap ni. French bean, carrot and cheese dibalut dengan daging and sauce dia sangat sedap!

mesti cuba.

I order kan for kitorang semua ribeye steak that comes with side salad and toast.

H pula nak try their lamb chop. RM25.

Nice katanya. daging lembut and tak kuat sangat bau.

I suka steak sini, marinated well and daging lembut. very juicy. daging dia macam melted in your mouth. and i suka sebab seasoning dia. tak perlu sauce or ape dah. memang flavourful.

Boleh lah siapa yang mahu cuba.
xoxo :)
