Silver Spoon @ Publika

Celebrating my BFF bachelorette night in Silver Spoon Publika. I visited Silver Spoon numerous time. The ambient and the food was great. Perfect for a date night with love ones or even gathering with friends

        Baked   Escargot ( RM 26.00)

Fantastic backed escargot in garlic herb butter sauce. The buttery herb sauce was perfect with baquette. I like to have a few more pieces escargot with it. A must order. 

        Portabello Mushroom( RM15.00)

Another dishes I wouldn't miss out here's is the baked portabello mushroom stuffed with herbs. It's come's in a set of two portabello mushroom. Was kind of disappointed with the mushroom size this  round. Normally the mushroom was bigger than today. But it still taste awesome. There's  only two places that I like the way they serve the mushroom, here and Jarrod  and Rawlins.

       Caesar Salad ( RM 18.00)

A huge disspointment, please don't order this. The tandoori chicken in it was terrible, soggy and dry. Nothing seems right about this salad.

     Capellini Aglio Olio ( RM 28.00)

Shredded duck confit with basil and semi dry tomatoes in olio style. Most of the time you will never go wrong with Aglio style pasta. Capellini was at the right texture, taste wise, like I say you will never go wrong with any olio. The duck confit part , I can't really tell if its a duck confit or not.

      Rack of Lamb( RM 48.00)

Served with mashed sweet potato, garlic lamb juice and crips of chocolate coated garlic. We ordered this cook medium, taste wise I find it special, the texture of the lamb was ok, kinda on the tough side, price at rm 48, I think is quite ok. The mashed sweet potato was a creative idea. The crispy chocolate coated garlic was good. I never know that garlic can go so well with chocolate.

       Oriental  Duck Pizza ( RM 29.00)

After been here so many times, I find their dishes can be slightly inconsistent. The oriental duck pizza today was ok only. The based was not crispy enough. Normally they do it better than this. Ok let's talk about the taste wise.Oriental duck pizza is like a east meet west taste. Kinda exquisite, either you like it or you don't. It's a sweet based pizza due to the onions and pears and also the hoisin sauce. So if you are not an onion lover don't order ,if not  you be busy picking out the onions

Overall, I still recommend this place. Reasonable price and good ambients for hangout and also dating.

Oh ya they stopped serving free sky juice. Now if you want water they only come in bottle mineral water.

Renoma Cafe Gallery @ Jalan Delima

Lazying on a public holiday. I decided to pay a visit to Renoma cafe gallery. Situated on the main road facing prince court hospital. 

I love their design, very artistic, and modern. I love the ambients here, quiet and not crowded.

Affordable set lunch daily from 12 pm to 4 pm at  RM 29.00  for two course, add rm 10 for an extra course 

Virgin piña colada only rm 7. Superbly good

Complimentary bread and truffle butter. Tasty,the truffle butter was lovely. 

Caesar salad with air dried beef. The salad was very good. Poach egg added the extra oomph on it.

The main course squid in spaghetti with smoked duck. It was superb. The squid ink pasta was cook perfectly. The ink enchanced the taste of the whole pasta. Smoked duck was pan fry just perfectly. I love this so much.

Overall the experience with this cafe was great. I will definitely drop by to try their other dishes. Service here was fantastic.

Restaurant Nepal @ Plaza Damas

Directly situated opposite TGIF in Plaza Damas. Nepal restaurant is just four months old serving authentic Himalayan Cuisine.

I think the interior design should be Nepalis style too. I never really been exposé to Nepalese ID before though. But this restaurant is comfy with soft Himalayan music from the background and dim lighting. Great place to have a quiet dinner.

A very simple menu indeed. There's pictures behind for their chef recommended dishes.

              Momo( RM12.00)

Started off with a dish call Momo, basically like our chinese dumpling but made with chicken meat instead. There's three types of cooking method you can choose from deep fried, pan fried to steam dumplings. The fried one scores better than the steam one, because of the thickness of the skin I personally thinks the fried one reduce the 'jelakness' of the dumpling. Our siu long bao beats momo steam dumpling .The sauce is kinda special, the lighter orangy color sauce is made of tomato and peanut butter with lots of unknown spices. The darker sauce carry a hint of spiciness and made out of chilis, tomatoes and spices too. Forget about the soup , taste like it's made out of Maggie chicken cubes.

          Chatamari( RM 12)

Chatamari, Nepalese version of pizza, which has a thin crust rice flour base and is topped with minced chicken, spring onions, tomatoes and egg. The crust was nicely made thin and crispy with lots of eggy taste. The pizza is nice at the crut but its kind of tasteless. Not too great for me though.

     Khasiko Masu Bhat ( RM 17.00)

Traditional thali set with a choice of chicken or mutton, I chooses the later one. The rice set is affordable at only RM 17.00, comes with Nepalese curry lamb, curry vegetables, black bean dhal. The curry lamb was great, tender and tasty. Others side dishes never really caught my attention. The black bean dhal was something new to me, it doesn't taste like our normal dhal. This one has slight stronger bean taste.

Overall it's a great experience if you have not tasted Nepalese cuisine before. To me the Nepalese cuisine carry a strong influence of Indian cuisine, but at a milder taste.

La Cocina Spanish Restaurant@ Taipan Subang

Craving for Spanish out of sudden. And the nearest place from Kota kemuning was Subang. So we drop by La Cocina to fix the craving. 

A compact and homely restaurant. Came in with a big smile and welcome from the waiters. The restaurant was filled with soft Spanish music.

Cute polka dots table cloths

We order a few  tapas and a paella for sharing. All tapas come with hot baquette. Free flow of breads here.

Fried Spanish Mahon Cheese( rm 19.90)

 

Pure cows milk cheese from Spain and button mushrooms deep fried and serve with garlic mayonnaise. I love this so much, the cheese taste was strong and taste good even without the mayonnaise. Some of the bigger pieces, come with a piece of mushroom wrap inbetween the cheese. Superb, we love it.

Lamb meat balls( RM 12.50)

Spanish lamb meat ball served with herb tomato sauce. The meat ball tasted not bad, texture was good. The only disappointment is the sauce. The herb tomato sauce taste more like diluted Maggie tomato sauce just slightly more sourish.

Baked Escargot( RM 16.50)

Escargot baked with garlic herb butter cream. Sauce was tasty the escargot was not bad. It will be better if the escargot were fresher. 

Fried Cauliflower( RM 8.90)

This was really a bad choice.The batter was too pepperish and doesn't matched with the cauliflower 

Negres Paellas( RM 70.00) 

The long waited squid black ink paella. It takes around 25 minutes to cook. And beware if you wanted to order negres( squid black ink) please do call up before hand, because they don't serve it everyday, and even if they serve its on first come first serve. 

The Spanish rice was cooked in squid black ink , prawns, shrimps, fish fillet, squid, mussels, clams and vegetables. 

This paella was really good. The rice was perfectly cook. It's very tasty and the squid ink enchanced it taste.We love it . Just that the prawns was not that fresh. The mussels was pretty tasteless.but overall the paella was good value. The portion was just right for sharing of two.

Miam Miam @ Gurney Paragon Penang

After having a disspointed meal in at Morganfield. I went over Miam Miam for dessert. Miam Miam in French means yum yum. This restaurant serve fusion cuisine of French and Japanese.

Combination of classic Asian interior, giving it a homely feel. 

                        Green tea latte

It comes in this pretty porceline cup lik those china tea cup, without a handle.This was really good, Way better than. Starbucks or any other places I tasted before. 

    French toast with maple syrup

      Close shot of the French toast

Here the French toast is serve with a scoop of fresh cream. The French toast was perfect. Crispy on the outer layer and soft at the inner. Additional of maple syrup enchanced the taste of the toast. I love it so much.

Maria's Restaurant Cafe

Hidden in the busy street of metropolitan square in Damansara Perdana. One can surely miss this place. Maria's is located above Citibank on ur right when you come from the Main Street. 

The entrance of Maria's beautiful with all the wooden design.

Cozy interior with checked table clothes. 

 

Smoked salmon salad ( RM 19.90)

Nothing special ,I think they overdo on the dressing part.

Oxtail Soup ( RM 20++)

This soup was superb. We really loved it, it was cooked to perfection. The oxtail was tender and tasty. The soup was just the right thickness.

Australian chilled black angus with red wine sauce

Australian black angus 

We order the same main course, both we Australian black angus 200g, only striploin available. The steak come out inconsistent for both of the set. We order medium rare, turn up to be a variety of medium  and done. We don't really fancy it. The meat we too coarse to our liking. But the meat was marinated pretty tasty.

       Tiramisu ( RM14.90)

We ordered two desserts. Tiramisu was ok, taste wise is good but I find the sponge cake was oversoak, very soggy and too wet to my liking. 

We ordered another chocolate cake go share. It's kinda bad so just skip it.
