IKEA is on of my favorite restaurants. One of the signature dish is the delicious swedish meatballs. That has always been my favorite ‘must get’ food each time I eat there until I tasted the chicken whole leg with swedish herb and lemon sauce.. I still love the meatballs but I wanted a change and taste other food. So yesterday my friend and I went to the restaurant to eat and I get to satisfy my craving for that chicken.

The first I tasted this, the chicken leg was so big and it had so much meat on it that it took me longer than usual to indulge myself into its greatness. However, this time, my 2nd time of tasting it, it was a huge disappointment. The chicken leg was so small that it had barely any meat on it. They were quite generous with the carrots, and the potatoes were soft this time, unlike the first time. I don’t like that kind of potatoes and was hoping I could change to fries but they won’t let us. I did ask for a bit extra sauce cuz the I love the sauce. My friend said it tasted milky-ish.

The meatballs is undoubtedly the best thing ever. Usually we’d request for mashed potatoes but we were told that they don’t have it anymore except on Sundays :( I prefer the presentation of it on a normal big plate (with Sweden flag they used to put couple of years ago) rather than the kiddy plastic plate for the 5 pieces even though the plate would be too big for just 5 pieces. The presentation is not that appealing anymore. Good thing the gravy tastes really nice.

One of the good thing about IKEA is that you can have unlimited refill for your drink. We always have a mixture of all soda drink, which was my idea at first (and everyone thought I was crazy!) to create some sort of tangy, sweet and sour-ish kinda of taste if you mix the drink right!

If it wasn’t for the disappointing chicken, it would’ve been a great meal. If you’re there, try their Daim cake or their other sweet dessert, and also their cinnamon bun.. they’re great to me. I’ve tasted their sandwich before but I thought it tasted bland. They also have like a chef special meal daily which sometime could be good and tasty. If you want something very light and on the go, check out IKEA’s cafe … they have really good curry puff for RM1, drink with unlimited refill, and hotdog with self service topping… so you can put as much sauce, mustard, onions and relish as you want!

I’m a HUGE fan of bubble tea or some of you might call it boba tea. I just love the chewy tapioca pearls in the drinks. Now lately I’ve been getting myself re-addicted to it. While I was working at Subang, one of my colleagues told me a nearby bubble tea supplier that also sells the drink instead of just supplying. So one day I went there and got instantly hooked.

This is my favorite type of bubble tea drink – mango flavored. That day when I bought that, for the first time ever, I saw multi-colored pearls. Usually they’re all in black. I love the drink there. I haven’t tried other flavors yet but this mango one is the best out of all that I’ve tasted so far. They’re very generous with the pearls, and the pearls are quite sweet, soft and chewy, which is how I love it. They’re cheap too – RM 3.50 per cup. In 1Utama I usually buy it at RM4.50 per cup.

The store is located just nearby Sunway Pyramid, at Dataran Mentari. If you drive past the shoplots using the LDP highway, you’ll see it. It’s on the same row with Dominos Pizza.

Gosh it’s been a while.

I’ve been so busy with my college life, then internship that I’ve abandoned this site. No matter. I’m done with internship now and I can start blogging again. I have so much to write about. Even old posts which I will try to get them done. I’m in the process of updating the site again. I’ve just changed the layout. I didn’t really like the last one. Bear with me as I fix everything in the site.

Keep checking back for new debut food post after a long break!

Since 2 weeks ago or so, almost everyone I know had been struck with some kind of sickness. I, to, was not excluded. I was coughing real bad, I couldn’t breathe properly and I had tonsilitis and thank god, I didn’t have fever and the torturous ‘chain of sickness’. So since I was coughing like I’m dying, I decided to go to the clinic. Well, the doc was barely talking, it was scary. After the visit, my mom and I went to a nearby ‘mamak’ (indian muslim) restaurant because she likes mamak restaurant and there were quite a number of people there.

Cheese Nan

This is what I ordered. Cheese nan. I’m not sure what kind of dipping they use as I’ve never tasted it before but they are absolutely and sinfully DELICIOUS. The nan tasted real soft, nice and yummy. It was served hot. Didn’t taste much of cheese though when you use the dipping but it’s still good. The dippings are good!

Teh Tarik

‘Teh Tarik’ (literally ‘pulled tea’) is my fave drink when I go to mamak stall. If you don’t know what it is, it’s simply just tea mixed with condensed milk then they’d do some sort of special pulling action and the as result you get frothy topping… something like cappucino. I loved it. Creamy, thick and frothy. Oh and sweet.

Thosai

This is mom’s. She loves ‘tosai’.. I’m not sure what it’s called in english. She get 3 kind of different dipping including curry. I’ve never liked tosai but their tosai is not bad.. it’s not really er.. sour-ish as usual so I liked it too.

I forgot the restaurant’s name. They sell lots of different dishes that sounds yummy. If you want to go, when you go to Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, there’s a clinic there called Family Clinic TTDI… and along the row you can see banks, pizza hut at the corner and behind it is the TTDI wet market. It didn’t cost  much either. It was just around RM5-ish (USD $1.50-ish)

This is just some random post..
Valentine’s Day last February, I was with some of my friends doing a sale at school. We sold fruits dipped in chocolate fondue! We bought the chocolate fondue at Midvalley Megamall. If you’re an addicted chocolate lover like me, and you haven’t tasted fondue, where have you been, man?? lol. We sold quite a few variety of fruits including strawberries, banana, grapes, and also including marshmallows! Yummy yummy. You can buy the thing at midvalley, where your pour the chocolate in it, melt it, and put a candle underneath it to keep it warm and melted and then you can go crazy with the dipping :D Here’s a picture of the fruits and not-yet-melted chocolate before we took them out to sell. Mmm..I miss it and I’m craving it right now….
