Twelve Cupcakes @Sunway Pyramid

January 2, 2014 thammelissa 13 Comments

I noticed this cupcake shop when I happens to be in Sunway Pyramid. Being a sweet tooth person, I got attracted by the varieties of cupcakes sold here. However I was kiamsiap to make any purchase. LOL!!

Then, one day I read about twelve cupcakes reviewed by Sean. He wrote some positive feedback about the cupcakes. (Located next to Wendy’s, facing the ice skating rink. )

Twelve Cupcakes, Singapore’s award-winning cupcakery. These freshly baked cupcakes are handmade from scratch every day. At Sunway Pyramid is their first outlet available in Malaysia. Next, will be opening soon at One Utama Shopping Mall and Midvalley Megamall.

So, I took 1 step forward to make my purchase. Not many lar…. I only bought 3 to try. hehehe…..But I stood in front of the display glass for several minutes because I couldn’t decide which to choose. All flavors look yummy to me. There are some special flavors made for every month.

Assorted flavors. Spoil with choice.

The above 12 flavors are available daily. Price of each cupcake is RM6. While for special flavors is RM7 each. RM34 for 1/2 dozen and RM66 for 1 dozen.

A kind reminder about the cupcakes.

I had a heavy dinner on that day. So, I kept these cupcakes for the following day. It was still good and tasted nice although I kept it overnight.

RED VELVET

CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE

love this.

Cupcakes are sometimes too sweet (tooth killer) because of the overly sweet frosting. But not for the cupcakes here. I felt the sweetness are just nice. The cakes are moist too. I was very satisfied with all 3 flavors I’ve chose. I wanna buy again!! Hahaha…..

My technique of eating cupcake just like THIS. Cut the cake into 1/2 then sandwich it. Less messy this way…. 😉

Good Food + Good Companion @T.G.I. Friday’s, Sunway Pyramid

April 2, 2013 thammelissa 19 Comments

Do you agree that good food and good companion are equally important?

I actually knew this group of friends since year 2008 through a wedding forum. Never expect we could maintain the friendship from virtual friends to good friends. Not forgetting Nicole and Vivian..just that we hardly get together at the same time.

It is not just friendship between both Ashley and Wanyi….we also get our HB to involve. Never expect our HBs can get along well too. Nevertheless, we even went for overseas trip together. Despite the hectic life…we still make some effort to have dinner or sometimes to a short trip.

On our recent meeting, we actually planned to have dinner at Itallianiese. Unfortunately Itallianiese at Sunway Pyramid has moved its business to Paradigm Mall. Therefore we had to make a sudden change of venue. With agreement from everyone, we then decided to go to T.G.I. Friday’s. Guess many of you are already familiar with T.G.I. Friday’s. 😉

The dining area.

I like how they deco the wall, with vintage stuffs.

From Left: Strawberry Lemonade Slush (RM10.90), Green Apple Slush (RM10.90), Blue Raspberry Slush (RM10.90), Cranberry Fizz (RM8.90).

All the above drinks are cold and refreshing!

They are currently having this promo of 2 course meal for RM29.90. Consist of an appetizer and a main course. *selected choice as above*. I find this a good deal. Therefore we decided to order 2 sets of this.

Appetizer A:- Fried Mozzarella (Mozzarella cheese coated in special Italian-style breading, deep fried and served with rich marinara sauce.)

Appetizer B:- Bruschetta (Toasted garlic butter Ciabatta bread topped with garlic and fresh roma tomato-basil salsa and drizzled with balsamic glaze).

Main Course A:- Chicken Fingers (Hand battered chicken tenders, golden fried and served with crispy fries and honey mustard for dipping.) The crispy battered chicken fingers are nice, the meat are tender and not dry too.

Main Course B:- Key West Whitefish (A roasted mild whitefish topped with sparkling citrus splash, served with seasonal vegetables and herb rice). Among the rest, I actually like this the most. The fish fillet was fresh, the gravy was tasty and the rice was flavorful.

Garlic Spaghetti Vegetali (add Blackened Cajun Shrimp) – RM26.90.

Spaghetti gently tossed with extra virgin oil, fresh broccoli, tomatoes, garlic, basil, Parmesan cheese and garnished with crispy basil leaf.

Tossed Tomato Basil Chicken (RM27.90)

Sliced, chargrilled chicken breast served over linguine pasta tossed in a fresh tomato basil salsa. Garnished with zesty Balsamic glaze.

Honestly, I felt that both pastas we had here were just average. Nothing great.

Additional side order of Buffalo Wings. Juicy and succulent chicken wings were finger licking good!

Good Food + Good Companion = Good Day! ^_^

Myself, Ashley & Wanyi.

Abel was the star of the day. *center of attention*

Everyone was taking turn to carry him.

*dessert at Hui Lau Shan* Hhmmm….Abel will going to be a foodie soon. HAHA!

ZenQ Dessert @ Sunway Pyramid

March 2, 2012 thammelissa 12 Comments

We often heard about the popular Snowflake dessert. But these days we are getting more and more of the cloning ones. (sorry to say that). What I like most about these desserts is the ‘taro balls’. Originally from Taiwan. And I’ve had a good one at Jiufen, Taiwan. So, basically I’ll be grading them base on the ‘taro balls’. hehehe….then the pearls, then the milk tea.

I spotted ZenQ located near Burger King of Sunway Pyramid and I decided to give it a try. Well…actually I’m trying to compare if there’s anyone able to beat Snowflake.

ZenQ serving both cold and hot desserts. Not forgetting drinks as well.

The popular Taiwanese dessert, here I got myself a bowl of ZenQ MySignature for RM7.50. Beneath is the Grass Jelly ice, topped with a layer of Grass Jelly and complemented with their chewy brown sugar coated Pearls and the jelly-textured starch noodles. Not forgetting also Q Yuan (taro balls). Each color are made from different ingredient. Orange = Sweet Potato, White = Yam, Green = Green Tea/Matcha.

Added creamer.

A closer look on this ‘grass jelly series’. Since I’m emphasizing on the taro balls…I would say that ZenQ’s taro balls are below average. I felt that its lack of the ‘chewy-ness’ lar. Moreover I would suggest you not to add the creamer. It became so ‘pekat’ (concentrated) before I could finish half. **quite geli lor**

For drink, I’ve tried ‘Passion fruit Green Tea-RM4.90’ and ‘Aiyu Baby Pearl Winter Melon Tea-RM5.90’. I reckon ‘Aiyu Baby Pearl Winter Melon Tea’ is not bad. Aromatic winter melon tea and whereby you can chew the chewy baby pearls, crunchy basil seeds and jelly noodles.

***Unfortunately the dessert above did not meet my expectation….

Dinner @ Canton-i, Sunway Pyramid

July 1, 2011 thammelissa 4 Comments

Papa suggested to have dinner here. Canton-i; the Hong Kong cuisine – ain’t my first visit. My previous visit; we had some different dishes from this round. I do admit that it has nice ambiance. (simple Chinese style deco with white tables and chairs). Nevertheless; the price are indeed more pricey if you compare the same wanton noodle with those at hawker stalls. Yet during peak hours, its quite crowded too. People here are willing to pay more for better environment and comfort.

Braised Peanuts – RM2/ plate

(I thought this was given free~~~) But it taste nice and the nuts are soft enough.

Jasmine Flower Tea – RM5

3 Combination (Roasted Chicken+Roasted Pork+BBQ Pork) – RM32 (recommended)

Roasted Chicken – Meat are tender and tasty.

BBQ Pork – BBQ to perfection. Nice sauce coated on the lean and juicy pork.

Roasted Pork – Ain’t too fatty…I like it. Meat are tender and most important is the skin are crispy!

Braised Garoupa Belly with Garlic and Pork Belly – RM32

Taste ok but nothing special. Not worth it!

Steamed Egg with Minced Pork – RM13.80

Though it look simple…taste wise is not bad. The steamed egg was very smooth.

Sauteed Scallops with Broccoli – RM32

Nothing special either.

Amaranth(Bayam) with Century Egg & Salted Egg in Superior Soup – RM16.80

The picture on menu looks nicer. I think the ‘tai chaw’ restaurant makes better.

Dried Scallop & Squash Superior Soup – RM28

This soup is tasty & yummy. Boiled with pork ribs and each sliced of squash were stuffed with dried scallop. However it looks alil oily.

Egg Tarts – RM9.60 (recommended)

This is my favorite egg tart. The freshly bake egg tarts with flaky crust and creamy warm egg custard which I adore most.

Double Boiled Hasma with Red Dates – RM12/bowl

I want to look youthful..I want to have flawless skin…So I must eat more….*slurping down my throat*

**I felt the food above not worth it. I much prefer their noodles and congee is the best!! **

Dinner @ Bar.B.Q Plaza, Sunway Pyramid

May 19, 2011 thammelissa 4 Comments

Everyone of us miss the meal here. That was because our last visit was quite sometime ago, till I’ve forgotten the exact period. Therefore in conjunction to Mother’s Day…we decided to have a dinner at Bar.B.Q Plaza, Sunway Pyramid. Bar.B.Q Plaza is a self-cooking Mongolian and Japanese style barbeque restaurant. The very first BarBQ Plaza is located at Ladprao, Thailand. However it has now expand over few places in KL. The outlets are at 1Utama Shopping Centre (1st branch), Sunway Pyramid Shopping centre, AEON Bukit Tinggi Shopping Centre and Berjaya Times Square, IOI Mall Puchong & Gurney Plaza, Penang.

It was just 5+pm in the evening. Yet, its already full.

huh…another queue of the day. While lining in the queue; the waitress came passing the menu and took our orders. That may save sometime rather than me doing nothing while queuing.

Bar B Gon is the mascot of Bar B Q Plaza.

The barbeque sauce: mix together chili, squeezed lime, minced garlic and sauce (special vegetarian based sauce imported weekly from Bangkok)

Use the lard to grease the hot pan before placing all the meat and seafood for grilling.

Leave the meat to cook till it turn light brown. While placing more vegetables in the soup(around the pan) will add extra sweetness & much tastier soup.

Ready to eat

As an asian, we normally have rice in our meal. Therefore we ordered Garlic Rice – RM2.50/bowl

Supreme Seafood Set – RM35.90

(Fish Fillet, Squid, Shrimp, Chicken, Jelly Fish, Scallop, Udon, Sliced Cabbage, Baby Corn, Lettuce) – suitable for 2 pax.

Korean Pork Set (limited period only) – RM39.90

Some Banchan included in the Korean Pork Set

Marinated Pork Belly – RM6.90

Som Tam with Soft Shell Crab – RM8.90 (Its like a kerabu or Thai salad)

Chicken Wings with Lemon Grass – RM7.90

Chicken Skewers – RM6.90 (taste nice..but the meat is too hard)

The feast has begun. Everyone was busy getting their hands on the food.

A meal will not complete without a dessert.

Mango Sago – RM5 (Unfortunately it doesn’t taste that good)

Food : 4/5

Price : 3/5

Ambiance : 3/5 (I much prefer the 1Utama outlet. More comfy & spacious)

Chatime; The Premium Pearl Milk Tea

May 18, 2011 thammelissa 14 Comments

Despite the long queues and the waiting, yet it still receiving overwhelming response from patrons. What am I referring here? Its Chatime, The Premium Pearl Milk Tea which currently mushrooming in Malaysia. (my new found love)…..Chatime even planned to open total of 25 branches.

PS:- The CEO, Mr Bryan Loo is a young and good looking guy!! *uhhhh…*

As you know, Bubble Milk Tea or Pearl Milk Tea is very popular in Taiwan. (made me miss Taiwan again). To get a nice or somewhat pure one here in Malaysia is rather difficult. Thanks to Chatime for bringing in to Malaysia.

Chatime is franchised from Taiwan.

OMG!! A whole long list of flavors!! When am I able to try all?? (around 120 types)

It claimed as Premium Milk Tea. Which I do agreed.

The current number is at 6364 and my order number is 6410…Gosh..long way more. However I waited for about 30 minutes in order to get my drinks. Sound nuts right??

These were the crowds in Sunway Pyramid’s branch. I wonder will the craze be like J Co’s donuts when it 1st arrived in Malaysia??

Glass Jelly with Fresh Milk – RM5.90 (Regular)

The glass jelly or ‘leong fun’ are so smooth that it slips easily through the straw. The milk taste more like soybean.

Brewed Olong Tea – RM4.90 (Regular)

If you would like something more refreshing, this is a good choice!

Taiwan Plum Ice Tea(with pearl) – RM5.90 (Regular)

If you prefer something more appetizing, this is a good choice. Though its plum, but it ain’t too sour.

Red Bean Milk Tea – RM5.90 (Regular)

It sounded unique to me. Took the challenge and gave it a try, since its under the recommended list. Surprising the drink was good. The red bean are soft too and the milk tea taste nice.

Roasted Milk Tea (with Pearl) – RM5.90 (Regular)

I may not resist this either. Love the aroma taste of tea in this cup of drink. Oh ya..I almost forgotten to highlight that the ‘pearls’ are good. Very chewy and not too hard of course.

Chatime has now monopolized:-

Dinner@Sushi Zanmai

December 9, 2010 thammelissa Leave a comment

Last Saturday I was at Sunway Pyramid. Thinking of what should I have for dinner. First thing that came across my mind was “Sushi Zanmai”. I’ve tried the food there 3 times at the same place. So far; it does not disappoint me. Honestly this is much better than Sushi King.

Unfortunately a friend of mine whom dine at Sushi Zanmai of The Garden Mall; left her with bad impression. She had a bad experienced. Dirty cutlery; poor presentation on food.

Bear in mind; please be prepared for the queue. Expected duration at least 15 minutes to be seated.

At the entrance

They claimed it as “The genuine conveyor-belt sushi Restaurant”.

Sauces & Wasabi

An adequate amount of wasabi & sauce

Pickled Ginger

A cup of green tea

The workplace for assorted sushi.

The sushi are priced according to the color of the plates.

Blue = RM2.80

Pink = RM3.80

Black = RM4.80

The eye-catching conveyor belt with assorted sushi. They constantly refill the conveyor belt. Don’t seem to have any empty slots. Of course not every sushi is displayed. You may order them from the menu, and they will serve it.

Tamago sushi.

Inari Kanimayo Yaki – Crabmeat with mayonnaise

Please forgive me for not knowing the name. However it is recommended. Fresh Sliced salmon wrapping the rice along with seaweed sheet.

CANTON-I of Sunway Pyramid

August 18, 2010 thammelissa 2 Comments

We were at Sunway Pyramid on Sunday for a family weekend shopping spree.

Then, we decided to have our lunch in CANTON-I because I misses their porridge very much! CANTON-I serves Hong Kong cuisines. (Of course its not so pure as in Hong Kong lorr..). We ordered individual meal instead of set. Upon ordering each of us punya food….the captain whom took down our order kept insist us to order the ‘roast goose’. Therefore we ordered for quarter size. And its not cheap ler….quarter size already RM48, if request for thigh side additional of RM8. @_@ Moreover she kept insist us to get half bird.(which will be RM88)

when it comes to Chinese cuisine; a pair of chopstick is a must.

Lunch at FULLHOUSE

July 27, 2010 thammelissa Leave a comment

Before our house hunting in USJ on Sunday; I’ve managed to pujuk Alex to bring me to FULLHOUSE for lunch. The full name of it; is Fullhouse Lifestyle Store & Cafe. I’ve kept receiving comments like; the place is very nice, good ambiance, you can take alot of nice photos, price is fair, food is good too! How could you resist when you received so many good feedbacks on this place. There are a few branch in KL. The one I went is located in Sunway Pyramid. Kinda small. I was told that the one located in Jalan Yap Kwan Seng is much nicer. Better ambiance.

welcome…welcome…

browse through the lovely menu.

The menu is so cute. Really look like a children’s story book. We picked the set lunch. Comes in a set which includes a main dish, a mushroom soup, a glass of ice lemon tea & 1 small dessert.

the ice lemon tea. so big glass!!
