1-Stop Cafe - Bt 3 Jalan Ipoh, KL

We have been working without off since the CNY 5 days holiday, so hubby called one day off yesterday to be lazy around!

We went to this 1-Stop Cafe in Jalan Ipoh, located behind all the Dim Sum shops that operate almost 24 hours per day. It was a very hot day and I ordered this cold drink called Mint Medley (RM4.90) a mixture of calamasi,apple and pear juice, very refreshing:
Hubby ordered Hainan Coffee(RM1.50), very aromatic and creamy.

Hubby ordered Green Bean Soup:

And Tau Fu Fa:
As we had our lunch just a few hours ago, we tried out some snack like this Pumpkin Pie (RM3.00):
It tasted something like Fried Sweet Potatoes but mashed pumpkin was used instead, something different.I ordered Trendy Tortilla (RM3.50), it was something like minced meat wrapped with roti prata, savoury tasty.
Besides all the light snacks, the cafe serves heavy stuff like Nasi Lemak, Fried Hokkien Mee and Tai Chow dishes that go with rice. The drink list has many to select too. From healthy juices to coffee and tea. Price is quite reasonable and the ambiance is relax and cosy. I find this place is much better that the famous OTC, yunno which one mean!

Kedai Makanan Laut LTE - Selayang Utama, Selangor

One rainy night, the fridge was empty and hubby was not around and I decided to eat outside with my two boys. Instead of eating 'one bowl meal' ie laksa, soup noodles, we craved for something like home cook food 'tai chow style'.

This corner lot 'tai chow' restaurant is located in Selayang Utama Industrial area. The restaurant had two portion, one is air-cond area and one is outside...sort of al-fresco dining.
We ordered 'Steamed egg @ three kind of yolks '. It was not coated with a layer of oil and soy sauce on top so it was a bit dry, healthy though.
This Stir Fry Spinach was very tasty with a tinge of Shao Xin Wine.
I wonder what is the secret of making this dish....'Fried Calamari' can be so crispy, dry and well coated with batter.
My boys' favourite..'Steamed Lala with Soup'.
The total cost was about RM45 inclusive of two plates of rice, one coconut, one coke and one glass of hot Chinese tea.

Pizza Milano - One Utama New Wing

It's school holiday again........what else to do for city folks and kids?? See movie, window shopping, eat, eat and eat. Well yesterday I brought my boys to watch the movie "Dragonball" in One Utama, new wing. After buying 2.30pm show we decided to have lunch there. The eldest son wanted Japanese buffet at the Shogun, youngest son wanted Pizza and Mommy wanted to eat Thai food. We ended up going for pizza because it's been a long time we have not eaten pizza.

We spotted Pizza Milano located just 200 meter away from the ticket booth of GSC cinema. It is kind of fast food pizza selling Italian pasta , pizza and waffle.
The place was quite empty when we entered.
10 minutes later, after placing our order, the crowd came in and almost covered 3/4 of the place.

I ordered Pizza Americano consists of pepperoni, sliced chicken and olive.
Eldest son ordered Pizza Chicken Delight.
Eldest son ordered another Pizza Beef Pepperoni.
Youngest son ordered Meat Ball spaghetti.
My Americano Pizza.......
Although only one type of pizza pastry available, I find the pizza and spaghetti here are very tasty, full of mozzarella cheese and quite generous with the meat and vegetables. The price is quite reasonable, RM9.90 for a small pizza and RM7.90 for a generous plate of spaghetti. Drinks are between RM2.00 - RM6.00. I will come here again if I want some fast food pizza instead of the famous Pizza Hut or The Shakey Pizza which I find it's not tasty and rather expensive.
