I finally got my Iphone after blood-boiling days of waiting and queue-ing up in Maxis in The Gardens.That day..I literally stole my current iPhone because I was supposed to wait for them to call me,then only I can get my iPhone but I didn't..I went there,straight press the queue number for "iPhone purchase" and waited there..I waited there for 3 hours in total, which I scolded the staffs also..Oh well..It's been long since I last scolded people XD.
Anyway..I've been to few restaurants which I wants to share with all of you..However, I've updated the photos right from my phone to Facebook,since it is more convenient that way XD
I've been to Grandmama's restaurant in Pavilion.The initial concept is similar to Madam Kwan's, which there are few dishes that overlaps as well, for instance, Nasi Boujari and Asam Laksa. According to baby bug and Alfred, both dishes in Madam Kwan's are slightly better than the one in Grandmama's.
However, I took their signature dish, the Sang Har noodle, which was awesome!The prawns were huge and really fresh too!Most importantly..The prawn taste has been incorporated into the noodle and the gravy!Totally awesome for a not-so pricy price!

Frames, TTDI plazaFrames is ran by baby bug's senior, Mark. However, that day, we were supposed to go to flea market in the Curve but baby bug cheated me.He brought me to Frames to have dinner instead and we sat there for 3 hours to have our dinner.It's not the case where we waited very long for our dishes to be served, but rather Mark was asking me to try their desserts and give comments. Woah,a food-critic to be eh me!
I'd say the food in Frames are nice,especially their diablo pasta!The spaghetti is very well cooked, just not,not too soft or hard.And the seafood, mussels were really fresh to the extend where I can still taste the original saltiness in it. The prawns were big, and fresh, and to my surprise, the prawns were real fresh prawns and not reared prawns, which was totally awesome!
Diablo pasta
Baby bug ordered beef cheesy burger...I would say it is not bad and i find it a little different from the rest of the restaurants due to the vegetable they put into the burger..It's the fresh, almost organic type of salad, and not the usual salad.This salad is slightly reddish, and it is a little bitter.But it is more crunchy than the ordinary salad.You can see the salad they use in the picture.Sadly I do not know the name for this salad ): Maybe its time for me to go study a little in cold storage, to get to know the names for different salads eh?
Besides that..Another reason why I like Frames is the setting.The seats are very comfy and for a person like me,which I always anti-the sofa seats, their sofa seat was good enough for me to sit in for more than 2 hours. I shifted place with bug later because the air-cond was blowing directly at me and I was freezing, due to my improper wear (polo-T with shorts) :P

For no reason this particular picture on the wall just caught my eyes so badly..so I took a shot of it!
We ordered dessert, which was my favorite tiramisu.I found that there are space for improvement for this tiramisu but I must say the alcohol content was just nice,not too strong or not too mild.And the sponge layer was very absorbent, unlike Italianies' tiramisu, which is always wet!
After we tried the tiramisu and I gave comment on it,me, Mark and baby bug continued talking and out of a sudden Mark asked if I want to try their brownie with ice cream which is not in their menu yet.I was very full but since baby bug say he can still eat..So we tried the brownie and it was not bad.It is moist enough,and not many nuts were there.I hate brownie with a lot of nuts because I found them disturbing me to taste the texture of the cake.
I had a great time in Frames,either trying food or talking to baby bug and Mark.I am definitely going back there in due time!
Cristang - the best and most sinful pork burger in Malaysia!
Just went Cristang on yesterday to tried out the pork burger,as Cristang was featured in NST.We specially went on Wednesday because there are 20% off for any of the pork burgers.So off we went.The "we" consist of me,Thava,tracy and Cheryl.Too bad baby Lynn was purging so she was unable to join us ):
I would say the setting in Cristang is so so only,but maybe because it wasn't at night so the atmosphere was different.

I ordered their chocolate-banana milkshake and I regretted it.Not like it's not nice but it was rather rich.Having it without meal is totally fine but it will be too much with a heavy meal, like beef burger :D
The beef burger was good too.The hamburger they made it themselves and I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed the grilled bacon!I love bacons to be super dry and crispy!
Although the beef burger was good..but nothing can beat the pork burger!The pork burger was so awesome that I kind of regretted ordering my beef burger for the first time!The pork was totally fresh, and it has no pork-smell that i hated so much, and not to forget the minced pork sauce was awesome too!The minced pork sauce is called minced pork chili con carne, which was serious awesome and it's nothing like bolognese sauce at all.The taste is even heavier with set P4, which is with petai.The petai is blended into the sauce where a petai-hater like me can't even taste it!Let's not forget..The Cristang Cajun wedges with rosemary (I think it was rosemary) was awesome too!Each and everyone of us loved the wedges!
While waiting for our dishes to be served...I took this out of boredom.They serve German beer too!
For the first time..The pictures of the pork burger are making me salivating and I feel really hungry now!
Who wants to go with me again soon?!
