Open up...


Ok... um, I actually try to take a few shot of the burger, but i guess...
It just doesnt look right, yea... delivery... soggy fries, my coke without straw...
and the look of the burger affect my appetite too -_-!!!


Taste? well, fortunately it taste not bad, the chicken was tender, for those who love black pepper, yep, this is a burger for u, cant really taste the chargrilled sauce, I mean there's but overall, it taste more "peppery"

Price: RM10.45 + Tax RM0.52 + delivery charges RM3 = RM13.97

Patisserie RUI Bakery @ Mont Kiara

* Oh my, nobody seems to be interested in my xiaofeiyang -_- from my previous post,
guess I will keep it for my next steamboat party ...



I have been frequent this bakery shop since last year September if I'm not mistaken.
If you are coming from mon't kiara to solaris, you will passby this building name Mont Kiara Meridin, there're some other shop such as dominos at the same row as RUI.


I love everything here...
Almost all the cakes... It was not too sweet, and taste heavenly good.
And I love those lil sweet packaging by them, clean... simple...

Below are the cakes I have tried during my visits or some bought back by hubby from RUI.

Strawberry Shortcake - light and fluffy ^^


The Opera Cake - Must try...

Lemon Cheese w coconut flakes - I thought I will never like a cake like this as I dont really fancy coconut, but i was wrong, its was so good, with a hint of lemon, again ... its not too sweet and actually wanted to have another one after my first piece :p

Red Velvet - The Red Velvet version here at RUI is a lil different, its lighter, which also one of my favourite

Meatball and spaghetti - ah... all time favourite, if you are chocolate lovers, pls pls pls try this~



Chocolate Truffle - another must try for chocolate lovers.

Apple Cheese - smooth and light cheese cake...

Tiramisu - I think tiramisu was the only cake that i wasnt really into at RUI.

I prefer something real heavy and rich for tiramisu ^^

But... it still good to me ^^

I ordered a strawberry shortcake for my christmas party 2009, oh man... everybody loves it so much, even for those who dont really love cakes. And i love the way they decorate the cake, and also the lil candles ^^

They serve tea and coffee too...

Yes, illy ^-^

If you are around this area, or if you are a cakes lover, this is a must visit place for you ^^

***Pls be there early or call to make booking to avoid dissapointments.

oohhh~ Xiao Fei Yang - 噢~小肥羊...

I am sure most of you already know about Xiao Fei Yang Steamboat.
But no, I am not posting about this Xiao Fei Yang Steamboat Restaurant at Pudu or Damansara Uptown.

This post is about Xiao Fei Yang convenient ingredient pack that a friend got back for me from China. Yes, it's like a instant noodle, where you have all the flavouring and others ingredient in it for you to prepare your steamboat.

And because of this I had steamboat for few nights in a week
(Did i mentioned that I am a big fan of steamboat? ^^)
Hubby got so sick of steamboat after that :p

This is how the packing look like, the green is clear soup while the red is malak.


There're directions on how to prepare the soup.


I used a small kampung chicken to boil soup as a soup base.

This is what inside the packing, some flavoring powder, butter, herbs, wolfberries (keichi) etc.
You will need to prepare your own green onions, ginger and garlic.
I added additional ingredient such as red dates, extra wolfberries, a few piece of dangui and dried longan.



After mixing everything together, and let it boiled for a while, you are ready to start the steamboat ^^ (Note: I didnt use up all the flavoring powder as I was told that it could turn very salty, so i added a bit by a bit... to the taste I am comfortable with)

Ta da... That's my first DIY Xiao Fei Yang Steamboat night with my buddies...

Beef and Beef and Lamb slice i got from Juco, mock sharkfin, tofu, prawn, mushroom, vege...
Self marinated passionfruit papaya pickle, DIY fermented beancurd sauce (fermented beancurd + sesame oil), Mum's homemade garlic chilli,

After the first and 2nd experience with the clear soup, I am so eager to try out the malak one.
So here I am, ready for the 3rd round :p

The preparation and the ingredient in the packing is about the same, but the malak one has dried chilli and chilli oil in it. I am sorry I was too excited and forgot to take down pic of the ingredient in it.

It was a great night for malak steamboat, it was raining... and my condo here is breezy and cooling.

There it is, my malak steamboat... I added extra cili padi :p
Same thing, I didnt add all the flavouring powder and chilli oil.

Fish paste, bacon, prawn, spring roll... ( that's what i have in my fridge -_-)

Mushroom + vege

Besides the fermented beancurd sauce, i bought a crispy prawn chilli sambal, forgot to take pic of it, will take it and upload later. And we had Super Skol beer to end the night ^^

Remark:

1. Both clear and malak soup is not as good as those in the restaurant, yea... after all its a instant one. And i found that extra ingredient like keichi, dried longan etc are needed in order to make the soup more flavourful.

2. The malak soup taste better than the clear soup ^^

Hmmm... I hope you enjoy my DIY XFY experience with me ~~~

and for that...

I have 2 packet of xfy instant pack (1 clear & 1 malak) to giveaway.

How? Post your comment, and tell me what flavour you want, and I will contact you later for details. In case there's only one person reply, then he or she gets both 2 pack. Nobody reply? -_-!!! then i ll keep it for my next steamboat dinner ~

Closing Date? Sunday, 6th June 2010

I had the most wonderful day in my life...

And my married life? haha... I start learning to cook some simple dishes...

ok... thats all for now, I ll see you soon ^^

Goong Korean Rice Cake, Cold Storage, The Garden.

Happened to passby cold storage and found these colorful rice cake, lovely sales lady let me and Jeannie try each of them. Sooooooooo Good... Yes, because its not sweet, it doesnt taste like what it looks. We were told by the lady that these are make from rice powder, pumkin, sweet potatoes and sesame. Besides, the sweetness that we taste were the natural sweetness and a lil of honey added in it. Sound so healthy right?

Jeannie and I couldnt resist, And we bought 4 boxes to share :p
Can't really remember the price, All of them here cast about RM35.

OK... my opinion is... I love the yellow color one, which is the pumplin the most... love the fluffy texture and also the pumkin filling in it...

If you love something like mochi ... u you prefer something not too sweet...
Please try this, ^^
