Kuala Lumpur: Food Post

What excites me about any trip that I take is the thought of good food, though quite honestly, there's really nothing to be excited about. I don't deviate much from the usual as evidenced by my food choices when we were last at KL.

Apart from Honey Stars, this is what I also had for breakfast. Peanut Butter Sandwich!

We also had dinner at the open air "dampa" style seafood restaurant. It was honestly quite challenging to order because the cook doesn't speak English. We couldn't tell him how we want the prawns cooked. Ah eh...we resorted to asking one of their staff to look at what the group next to us ordered and ended up with prawns and squid cooked the same way.

Clams and fish also cooked the same way.

It's chicken overload at the mall, Nando's and Kenny Roger's.

Yes, Kenny Roger's. Em-J couldn't be persuaded to try another restaurant. I was initially successful in asking him to have lunch at Robot but he heaved a sigh of relief when we were told that it has already closed down. Weird cause they have signs all over the mall.

As for snacks, they're the usual: cupcakes, pretzels, cinnamon rolls and doughnuts.

The Krispy Kreme mini doughnuts were cute but they're not good.

We were also ecstatic when we saw Auntie Anne's and a Cinnabon store right beside each other.

I also saw Tutti Frutti, the yogurt store that Jencarps introduced me to.

We even brought back the same junk food from the grocery.

I did see this cute bunny shaped Maltesers.

At the airport, it's the same coffee shop while waiting.

I chanced upon Theobroma a little too late. I'll come back for their ice cream and hot chocolate next time.

We'll try to be more adventurous with our food choices next time. We'll try to.

Last Friday Night

Last Friday night, to celebrate Analyn's first month here in Singapore, we all decided to have dinner together.

We braved the IT show crowd at City Hall on our way to Glutton's Bay.



There was already quite a bit of a crowd when we got there but we were lucky as Clarice was able to immediately find seats with a good view for us.



We had a feast that night, I think I had about three platefuls of food. Except for the Chili Crab, the usual suspects were there.

Mang Kiko's Lechon Manok and Liempo,



fried rice,


cereal prawns,


sotong rings,


and kang kong.


After dinner, since it was still early, we decided to have a cup of hot chocolate at nearby Max Brenner's.






Drinks are a bit pricey at around $7-11 without service charge and taxes but it's well worth it.


The chocolate is divine, if only I can say the same about the service, I wouldn't have second thoughts coming back. I really don't want to turn this post into a rant so I won't go into details.



All in all, it was a fun night. One that we should all do again soon.
