weekend adventure to KL

hello gorgeous people!! this post comes a bit late but i have been crazy busy and i think im bound to get busier in the coming few weeks. to take a break from my crazy uni life, i treated myself to a trip to KL last weekend. i took a train right after i aced my ecommerce test in the morning. the trip there was fine except that i was on a seat next to an old dude who kept his legs spread so wide it was too close to me for comfort. like i need a personal space barrier!!!! i reached on time, got on an lrt and then had a super yummy dinner with my dad. we had hokkien fried noodles with lala soup and fried noodles is like my favourite thing like EVER!! it was so good and it was my first time having lala soup and i LOVED it!! it was a tiny weenie bit spicy cause of the chili padi and ginger but the lala was plump and fresh and the soup was sweet from the goji berries so it was super good!! i had ice cream with fruit too after dinner. 

the next day i woke up later than usual probably cause of all the travelling i did the day before. it was too late to go get a croissant breakfast that i like so i went to a coffee shop that sold something similar but it wasnt as good. but i had a pretty good bowl of beef noodles with really tender meat slices. 

we went to 1 utama after that and i was super excited to get my all time favourite bubble tea, Koi!!! its the best but you can only get it in kl so i always make sure i get my fill. i love their pearls. i also shopped around and got earrings and a pair of gudetama socks.

I went to a different mall later that night, Atria, and i wanted to get some food that my friend and i could do a youtube video with but there was nothing interesting for a food challenge. i like KL supermarts in shopping malls tho, the variety is endless. and thats how were able to get this brand of luncheon meat that we like, golden bridge. the best canned meat there ever was! 

on my last day i woke up bright and early because sissy was gonna take me out to breakfast to the actual OG croissant place and good thing we went early too cause the parking was good and so was the table. i had a ham and cheese croissant with roti kahwin on the side. then we went to the mall for a while and i bought some clothes from Cotton On which were on sale and they were so so cute and so so cheap. honestly i have got to start talking about my style and clothes soon. i have so many style tips and accessories i want to talk about. i could yak about it forever so that will take time but it's coming soon yalls!

maybe it'll come sooner than you'd think. i have to go take a nap now, this new gelato scented candle i got from Bath and Body Works is making me sleepy. see you later alligator

Valentine's day recap 2019 - dinner at e-hub Kampar

Hello all you gorgeous people!! in my previous post i mentioned the super fancy meal i had a couple weeks back but then yesterday i remembered a fancy dinner i had that would give Durbar a run for their money. for valentines day this year, i pulled all the stops. i bought flowers and a fancy dinner for my mom. i had ordered a rose bouquet weeks in advanced knowing the stores would be busy, and since i knew id be having classes, i had them delivered straight to her at her workplace. she was so stoked! much excited indeed! she took pictures and was super happy!

for dinner, i took her to this fancy bar lounge place, e-hub in kampar. the ground floor is a restaurant and the entertainment center with the karaoke and pool tables are all on the upper floors. i'd say its fancy cause there's a stage at the front of the restaurant where they sometimes have live music playing and they also serve liquor so thats always fancy! 

e-hub had a special valentines day 3-course menu and of course we had to try it. we started off with a seared hokkaido scallop on a bed of salad. i cant recall what the dressing was but i remember it being super citrus-y. the scallop was huge and really unlike the tiny pink ones you get when you buy frozen ones for your steamboat. we then ordered one of each of the choices of entrees so we tried a chicken roulade and a salmon dish which came with the same sides, just different sauce and different protein. i think i preferred the chicken. it came on a deep fried polenta cake and salad and a truffle butter sauce which was bomb. the meal ended with a dessert of frozen tiramisu and it came with a nice caramel sauce but it could do without. anyways it was a really good meal overall. the gin and juice was good too of course (hehehe!)

im super thankful to have had celebrated the event with my family and it really made me appreciate how loved i am by my parents especially. sometimes as a 'soloist' people tend to draw assumptions about your happiness which i think they shouldnt. i am loved and thats all i need to know.

Family dinner at Durbar FMS

hello gorgeous people a week ago, sissy had a really fun convocation as some of you already know. we went for our celebratory dinner in DURBAR FMS. It was a really fancy place and you could tell as you walked through the shiny glass doors. it felt like a scene from that Frozen movie when Anna opens the doors to Elsa's glass castle. pretty big moment aye.
the marble table tops and rustic wooden chairs, similar to ones youd see in normal non-fancy kopitiams, somehow fit so well into DURBAR's fancy setting. i guess the waiters in suits and the sparkly chandeliers helped boost the fancy factor a bunch. also the table setting was that youd see in hotel restaurants.
their menu was a mix of malaysian and western cuisine but we all got something that we felt we couldnt get anywhere else. food was nice but i do wanna comment on their side of fries we had in two of the four meals we ordered. i mean im paying a lot for frozen fries that i could make on my own too. or i could get them in any mcdonals nearby. frozen fries just doesnt suit the fancy theme the ambiance provided. plus they werent even salted.
but i have to say, they had really good soup. we had pumpkin soup and i live for pumpkin soup, especially the one my mom makes. theirs comes in close second but still i thought it worth mentioning.
