Hello Kitty Gourmet Cafe // Sunway Pyramid

7:21 PM

I have always been a huge fan of Hello Kitty and am very eager to dine in in their gourmet cafe especially when is so near to your place!

I visited this place a few months after the opening (the queue was horrifying during the opening!)

I wasn't expecting good food as I'm aware that most theme cafe didn't score on this particular sector but it came out to be better than my expectation.

I really like the ambience of the cafe- cozy,chill and pretty in pastel.

My favourite corner.

Picture spamming time!

Overpriced cake.

Macaron RM8-RM13/per pc

We ordered a Wonderland Waffle which was in the Kid's Selection.

The waffle was fluffy and warm, paired with fresh fruits, jam, drizzle of sugar syrup and marshmallow. Definitely photogenic, taste was acceptable with the price we were paying.

Wonderland Waffle RM19.50

We also ordered a 2-servings smoked salmon carbonara and it came with a bow ribbon shape!
Super duper cute but the price was super duper "cute" too.

The spaghetti was cooked till al-dente, coated in white sauce and strips of smoked salmon. It tasted rather bland and it seems like the smoked salmon was in the dish as decorative purpose. Portion was small, certainly not enough for two person.

Smoked Salmon Cabonara RM 39.50 (2 servings)

We ordered a slice of strawberry cheese cake for dessert. It passed the bench mark for being cute, not so much on the taste. I would prefer the cake with a thicker cheese layer instead of having whipped cream and sponge cake sandwiching the strawberry and cheese.All of their sliced cake were sold at RM20 flat price, regardless of flavours.

Strawberry Cheese Cake RM 20

I was told that the only hot drink with the hello kitty cocoa stencils was the Cappucino.

Our server seems to have a struggle to bring the coffee to our table ( nearly split it) and the cappucino was more like latte with the non-existence of foam.

Cappucino RM13.50

All in all, I still managed to enjoyed myself with a lot of nice picure corner. The food was decent but a tad too pricey, but oh well, you can't call yourself a theme cafe unless it is overpriced right?

I do think that the service can be improved with more attentive and efficient staff.

Sushi Jiro // Mid Valley

10:46 AM

Sushi indulging is fun until it burns a hole in your wallet! But fear not as there are still places in Klang Valley area that offer sushi at an affordable price.

Sushi Jiro in Mid-Valley will get your craving fix with more than 80 selections at RM3.48 per plate and if you consume 5 plates and above, it will be at RM 2.99 per plate only! (this applies to all sushi selection on the menu).

After hearing out Sushi Jiro for quite some time, I finally paid a visit to the place and enjoyed my dining experience very much.

First up, I tried the salmon kimchi sushi straight from the conveyor belt as I can't wait to dig in.

Personally, I didn't like this combination as I failed to taste the kimchi taste that I was looking for. The salmon was a pretty good cut though.

However, Maguro + Avocado was good. Rich and creamy!

Tuna + Avocado

If you are looking for something warm, this is perfect for you.

The chawan mushi was silky smooth while the dashi flavour stood out. Not much on the toppings with just a little mushroom, naruto fishcake and a cube of chicken but I like this a lot. Then again, I'm a bias towards anything with egg.

Chawan Mushi

The sakura ebi looked interesting but taste wise, not really. Maybe I don't know how to appreciate the taste of sakura ebi but it was similar with the texture of a salted dried straw.

Sakura Ebi

Salmon mentai came with two pieces of sushi but I pop it in my mouth before remembering that I had to take a photo. The salmon cut was fresh and the torched mentai made it extra delicious. One of my favourite! ( Bias, again)

Salmon Mentai

Since Sushi Jiro served their sushi a little small as compare to others, I opted some salmon maki to fill myself up. It was good too as the they are not stingy on their ingredients.

You can order anything you love that's off the belt. Their working crews were fast and attentive.

I ordered my favourite which was the IKURA!!!

The fish roe was savoury and it popped as soon as you bite into it. It was magical to know that such thing existed in this world.

I really like how their ikura was, filled with umami and was very fresh judging on the price we paid. However, Ikura only served in one piece instead of two.

Ikura

I also ordered a unagi sushi. It was alright, average standard on texture and taste.

Unagi

The maguro was fresh but lean. It was just nice.

Maguro

If you haven't notice, I love raw fish and of course, fresh cut sliced of sashimi.

In Sushi Jiro, you can get it at RM3 per serving too! ( if you consumed 5 plates and above)

All the cuts were fresh with a good texture and it melted in your mouth.

Highly recommend the salmon belly if you like your sashimi a little fatty.

Salmon Belly

I ended my meal with a green tea pudding. It was milky and sweet but not worth the money. I would prefer to spend my money on sashimi or sushi. ( the kiasu cina-ness in me)

Overall, I enjoyed my time in Sushi Jiro and I can see why it is so popular. Judging from the price, the ingredients were fresh and the services were fast. A wide choice of variety will make me come back for more!

Our total bill ended up with RM50, satisfied two hungry souls.

Dinner

Wang Ah Wah // Jalan Alor

12:43 AM

I'm finally back after missing in action for more than a month!

So a few weeks back, I volunteered myself in the Asian Population Association Conference along with some of my friends.

Since the conference was held at Berjaya Times Square Hotel, we managed to visit Jalan Alor which was 10 minutes walking distance.

Vanessa suggested that we should try out the famous chicken wing from Restaurant Wang Ah Wah, so off we went!

Ah Wah has two areas for dining- air conditioned and along the street.

We opted to dine in the air-cond area as it was drizzling.

First that came was the lamb and chicken satay.

Lamb & Chicken Satay RM 1/per skewer

I would say the lamb one was more worth it as both were at the same price.
The ratio of meat and fats was just nice.

Vanessa highly recommended their stir-fry pork intestine and it was GOOD!

Stir-fry Pork Intestine RM 16 (Small)

I' m not a fan of inner organs but this was one of the best intestine that I had tried. The intestine was cleaned thoroughly (no weird smell or texture) and stir fried with chilli padi and dried shrimps.

The texture was springy and chewy and the chilli padi added a little kick in this dish. It served more like a snack than a dish itself.

Up next, we had the salted egg with squid which was coated thickly with the goldenlicious salted egg.

Salted Egg Squid RM32 (Large)

The squid was fresh, not the best that I tried but it was good to curb my cravings.

Kam Heong LaLa was satisfying, the flesh was pulpy and there's no "let down shells" - those you picked it up but no flesh inside. It would be even better if the LaLa had more wok hei in it.

Kam Heong LaLa RM 25

Boiled cockerels was fresh and pulpy.

Boiled Cockerels RM8 (small)

Even though the sauce was nothing to highlight about, the cockerels was very cleaned and cooked just nice. It was still a little bloody ( like how most people would love it) and it burst a little when you popped it in your mouth.

Perfectly sculpted cockerels!

Another dish that I enjoyed very much was the Siew Yoke Sang Mee.

Siew Yoke Sang Mee RM24 (Medium)

Wan Tan Mee and Siew Yoke are my bias!

The noodles was similar to wan tan mee and it was cooked to al- dente, springy and pairs well with the condiments. The siew yoke was coated with well flavoured black sauce and it just go so well with the noodles!

However, their Wat Tan Hor was a major letdown. The noodles was not stir fry before hand but mushed up with the gravy. It was bland, clumped up and lack of taste. Luckily we insisted a small serving instead of a big one.

Wat Tan Hor RM9 (small)

And of course, their main highlight was the chicken wing which I believe is one of their major attraction.

BBQ Chicken Wings Rm3.20/per wing

With the hefty price of RM 3.20 per wing, it was succulent, tender and well marinated. Not too charred, and there's a little sweetness on the skin. Although it didn't gave us the OMG feels, I got why people travel all the way just to get a taste of this.

On a side note,the food we ordered were just right for 8 moderate eaters.
The service was just alright as it took quite some time for them to serve and most workers seem rather new with their job scope.

I personally had a high expectation when we visited this place as I know it was a popular tourist spot but it was rather average for me except for their siew yoke sang mee and pork intestine. *don't throw eggs at me*

Do take note that they have 6% GST ya!

P/S: Managed to try Thai Fried Ice Cream at a small stall opposite of Wang Ah Wah. So far, the cheapest I found, pretty unique texture I would say. A sweet ending!

Banana + Chocolate RM 5,50
