Komugi Cafe at Paradigm Mall

Anyone ever been to Komugi cafe? I went to Komugi Cafe in Paradigm Mall with one of my long lost friend. We haven't been seeing each other for about 8 years time, what a long time huh? There is only 1 photo available as we used up our precious time catch up with each others... hehe...

This is my first time to the cafe, last time I went to Komugi in Mid Valley, they are selling only breads and cakes in the Mid Valley outlet, unlike the one is Paradigm Mall, which is a cafe. Guess why I know Komugi? I saw people queueing up long in the Komugi in Mid Valley, so I went inside and have a look on it. Well, they are selling a lots of appetizing cakes and breads, all looks so delicious and mouth watering!!!!

I didn't buy anything when I visited for the first time, but I bought 2 of the cakes inside during my second visit. What I would say is, they are quite pricey, yet, delicious... So at least I'm paying for the good taste of it, and not to say the beautiful decoration for the cakes itself. They are more like a food handcraft. 

Well, go back to the story in Komugi Cafe, they offers a lot of different drinks and bakeries in the cafe. You can select your bakeries and they will serve to you at your table later, good service there as well. The photo below showed what had we ordered for ourselves. We tried out the bestseller -- cream puff and other cakes as well (in which I forgot the names already). 

The cream puff that they have there is different from what we perceived. Their puffs are hard and crispy, not the one with soft texture. My friend and I was a bit shocked at the first moment, she cannot accept the hard cream puff, having the perception that the cream puff must be soft in texture, therefore, she cannot finish the puff. Well, for me, I'm okay with that, overall the taste is very nice, the cream inside is creamy but not greasy, good taste!

Still, I would advice to take the bakeries with tea instead of other drinks. I ordered chocolate drink to be taken together with all the bakeries up there, and the result is too filling and greasy. In fact, at the end of it, we did not finish the cakes, what a waste, especially when they are so pricey!

Lesson to learn : Cakes should be taken with tea but not others... haha...

Beyond veggie at Tropicana City Mall

Throwback~~

I had my lunch last time in Beyond Veggie at Tropicana City Mall. They are selling vegetarian food inside compare to the normal Secret Recipe. I went to the restaurant with my friend to try out the food there.  

How's the appearance? Not bad, huh? It's quite appetizing... The taste is also nice. They put different colours of vegetables and beans inside. Of course, they also put mock meat inside. The food there is nutritious, but it will be better if they do not put mock meat inside.

When I went there last year, the portion size is big. But I just noted from my friend that their size shrunk recently. Well, no comment about it as I haven't been visiting the restaurant recently.

I tried out their cheese cake as well. Beyond Veggie serving different cakes compare to the Secret Recipe itself. However the choices available in Beyond Veggie is not as much as what they have in Secret Recipe. 

Burger Lab ~ Swisstake burger

Hi... I'm back, yes, back with food again... haha.. Missed my blog so much...

I went to Burger Lab again.. Yes, again...  I went there once, tried out the burger, it was nice indeed, but it 's never good to queue for so long, especially when you are starving. Burger Lab has been opened for quite some time, but the queue outside of the shop is never short. I waited for 1 hour for the burger. But I felt that they served faster compare to my first visit there. Well, that is a good improvement then. 

I actually accompanied my friend. My friend never try this burger even though listen to it many times. Thanks to the long chit-chating so that I didn't really focus on how much time I spent to queue for it. 

Last time I ordered A+ burger. This time, I ordered Swisstake burger, a burger with swiss cheese, shitake mushroom... Here is the photo of it.. Actually all the burgers look the same from outside, only the filling is different. Here's my set meal with my favourite french fries !!! I like the fries the most compare to the burger, it taste very nice with the aroma of the herbs they put in together with the fries... LOVE IT!!! 

Forgot to check on the menu, do they serve fries alone??? I prefer the fries.. hehe... 

Ochado...

This is my 1st Ochado drink which introduced by my friend. It was my first time visiting Ochado last weekend. I saw the shop many times when I go shopping, but never go and try it out before. 

Since my friend strongly recommend it, well, just give it a try, isn't it?

I had ordered roast Okinawa milk tea with added pearls inside. Heard that is the one of the best seller for Ochado. Well, for your information, my favourite is Chatime, may be because I get to know Chatime first when the milk tea is first introduced. The price of Ochado and Chatime is about the same. The taste of the drink is also quite nice. Perhaps I should tryout Ochado instead of sticking to Chatime all the time. My favourite is red bean, should have try Ochado drink with red bean inside.

Eating at Spaghetti Grill, Paradigm Mall

I think I really tried out a lot of new thing recently. This time I went Spaghetti Grill. I saw the shop for thousands time whenever I went shopping, but this is the 1st time I visited and ate inside. Good place for western food and cheap price during weekday. 

They have promotion for lunch and dinner during weekdays. Forgot the price, but you can get main dish, drink and dessert together for that promotion. 

This is the food I ordered. 

This is the pumpkin soup. Taste sweet, but nice when taking together with the biscuit. 

This is my main dish, seafood spaghetti. The waiter said the portion size for the promotion set is half of the normal standard meal size, but for me, this is just nice, not too much, not too little. 

Well, my friend ordered differently. She likes savoury dishes, so she chose mushroom soup for the appetizer.  

This is her main dish, Vegetarian Aglio Olio. This is nice as well. 

We also ordered Caesar salad to add on more vegetables on our meals. Tell you what, this is really nice!!! We love this very much. 

At last, here's our desserts, vanilla ice cream!

I would like to visit there again some other day. Nice place!

La Risata

La Risata, a place for Italian food. 

This place is located at 128 Jalan Kasah, Medan Damansara, 50490 Kuala Lumpur. 

cannot understand Italian? well, me too.. no worry.. the menu will state out some brief information about the food itself 

How's the ambience there? Not bad, huh??? (sorry about the blurry photo)

Gnocchi Ai Peperonchini Grillia E Chorizo

This is the food I ordered. Gnocchi Ai Peperonchini Grillia E Chorizo, what a long name for this food...  In simpler way, it's potato dumplings with lamb chorizo sausage and ricotta cheese in red pepper sauce. 

Is it really simple that way? it's still a long name, isn't it?

I don't really fancy this food, well, not suitable for me, I think. An advice for all, don't ever order something that you do not know. It is too risky, unless you dare enough to face the consequences. Haha.. 

I'm still able to finish the whole thing, end up with bloated stomach, as the dumpling is too filling. 

Spaghetti Alla Risata 

This is the spaghetti my friend ordered. I like this, this is their house specialty, mixed seafood in tomato sauce and baked in foil. All sorts of seafood is found inside, portion is HUGE!!!

Stinco D'agnello

This is Stinco D'agnello, wood fired oven braised lamb shank in a rosemary sauce on a bed of mashed potato. Well, I just copy the description in the menu. Nice name!

Those are all the so called artistic photo my friend took for me, not too bad, huh?  

The lamb shank really look nice, I didn't get the chance to taste it, but from my friend's response, I know this must taste good. Argh... I should order this!

Apple Citrus Soda

Apple citrus soda, a mixture of monin green apple, lime syrup, lemon juice, diced apple and soda. Taste sweet and sour. My friend loves this, for me, it's just so-so. 

Last but not least, I must show you the photo my friend finished her spaghetti. Haha... She kept complaining about the big portion of the food, but she's still able to finish the whole thing as well. 

Well, we don't waste food!!! haha...  

For those who haven't give it a try, please visit La Risata, but make sure to read the menu properly, I'm sure you all don't want to end up ordering something you don't like, isn't it? 

Have a nice day!!!
