Canton-i @ The Gardens Mall, KL

Mom and little sister shared this Char Siew Fan aka Barbequed Roast Pork Rice. They said it was the best they ever tasted. Seriously.

Dad's RM16 (!) chok aka congee, which was worth every cent. 

My steamed rice flour rolls with prawn. Huge prawns, I must add. Soy sauce was good too, but I thought there wasn't enough. Or maybe I was just greedy and finished everything too fast. 

Steamed char siew pao. Must-have dim sum.

Another dish we shared: Stir fried udon with something, can't remember my bad.

Lastly, I can never do without my egg tarts. And the ones from Canton-i were lovely. 

Met mom's aunt at Midvalley after and she took us to her Pancake House. I'm a sucker for pancakes and waffles so this was a real treat. Above was the Special Waffle with Ice Cream. I can't recall the proper name for it but it was in the special section of the menu. Really huge for a dessert, I reckon. More for sharing between 2-3 persons. But still quite tasty! The waffle is freshly prepared and remains crispy even after a couple of minutes. More ice cream than waffle here, so if you don't like your desserts too sweet try the other offerings instead, or you'd suffer the consequences of a major sugar rush. ;P

Drinks @ Kim Gary, Gurney Plaza

New drinks menu. We were the first to try them! Well, at least I think so after all the questions the staff asked us later. About the drinks, I mean. Mom had the roasted milk tea with grass jelly above.

I had the matcha green milk tea with red bean. Really good, this one.

And my sister had the passionfruit tea. She said this was okay, and that means great in sister language. 

Italiannies @ The Gardens Mall

Sorry for the grainy photos, used my camera phone this time.

Foccacia bread, complimentary, very fragrant and gone in 3 minutes.

They did it old school, with olive oil and vinegar to dip.

Shared a Classic Pizza with the sister. Classic = chicken sausage, capsicums, tomato sauce, mozzarella, mushrooms. The verdict:  For a highly acclaimed Italian restaurant, I went in with pretty high expectations after hearing rave reviews about the place, and this thin-crusted beauty did not disappoint. 

Hakka Tree @ Tesco Tanjung Pinang, Penang

A must-have when you're eating Hakka - Thunder Tea Rice. A vegetarian's heaven.

The soup that came with the rice set. 

Shared a bowl of prawn dumplings or sui kow with my sister. Really tasty!

My hakka noodles. Aren't flat and wide noodles better than those yellow round ones? Loved it.

Ice Cream Cakes @ Island Creamery, King Albert Park

I think this was the Chocolate Mudpie? The only chocolate cake that comes with ice cream, according to my sister. Can't remember much cause I was too distracted by the gorgeous display of cakes. 

Can you see all three layers of ice cream? 

Milky goodness in a cake. And you have your Oreo bits to complete it.

Bombe Alaska!

Man, I can't remember when's the last time I had this dessert. I think a long, long time ago when I was still a kid, at the Penang Club. Those were the days. Anyway, this beauty came with ice cream! Think it was some blueberry and vanilla flavour. Really, really good. Droolworthy as it may be, I totally forgot to snap a picture of what's inside. Sorry guys. 

Will be back to try the rest soon.

Grandma's Restaurant @ Raffles City

Honey Chicken

Belacan Mixed Vegetables - Had petai, long beans, eggplant; all my favourite veggies! Tasted great.

Claypot Tofu - This was as good as any good ol' tze char place.

And for dessert, Chendol! There's a promotion for 60 cents chendol with any main dish ordered. Really worth it. They even gave a tiny jug of gula melaka. Which was too much for the three of us, honestly. But still good though. Two thumbs up.
