Smokehouse, Bangsar Telawi

I always have something with English interior, whatever old, authentic English interior - English cottage, Victorian style, English antiques, country flower etc etc. Even by telling my friend I intend to turn my new room into an English cottage wrapped in country flower wallpaper has give them a good laugh teasing my very auntie-ish taste, yet I am head over toe in love with it.

 

07.04.10 Wednesday

Cindy called for a dinner at “the restaurant next to Madam Kwan Bangsar”.

And so we went searched blindly for this particular restaurant.

And so I fell in love at the first sight with this tiny little shop humbly squeezed in the middle of Madam Kwan and Chawan. Not quite in the same league as the surrounding restaurants.

 

And I forgot to take picture of the interior fml.

 

It has the welcoming fireplace, the very nostalgic antiques (that kind of colonial time mirrors, vinyl records player, antique desk phone etc), the fancy candle stands, the tranquilizing soft touch of watercolour paintings, clean white wall and yea, flowers everywhere… … … And it sells beer. To my surprise, their Carlsberg is nice (not sure if I was thirsty?), so chilled, adequately priced at RM27 per 2 pints.

 

Good kick start of the dinner with Ceaser Salad with Roasted Chicken and Egg + Beef Bacon, RM12.

p.s : In the menu it says you may opt for the roasted chicken and egg OR beef bacon, but I am not too sure why I managed to order it to have it both, without extra charge some more. Lucky day for me :)

 

Look at this pie.

 

Meet Chicken and Mushroom Pie. Lame name but impressive.

My favourite dish of the night <3 <3

<3 the pastry, very very very very crispy.

<3 the soup, very very very very creamy.

<3 <3 <3 the combination, best of both world.

The side dishes for the pie. The mashed potato made a great companionship.

Can’t remember how much, about RM30+ kua.

 

This pie was Cindy’s choice, therefore she deserves a solo appearance here.

 

 

Grilled Cod, RM30+.

Crispy from the outside, smooth and juicy from the inside ♥

 

Lamb Shank, RM30+.

Love me tender love me sweet ♫

According to the floor server in Smokehouse, the Lamb Shank is one of their recommended dish, especially for meat lovers.

 

Bread and Butter Pudding. Something averagely nice.

 

     

Love isn't one big thing, it's a million little things ♥

For those who’d got me wrong in Facebook, this is what I meant in love.

Blog Revive

It’s been more than a while I have never update my blog. So sorry for those who read…

In the past one month, I have been busy keeping myself occupied, in order to get over a wrecked relationship (in case you didn’t get it from the series of emo posts I had). And in these two weeks time, I have been busy settling myself in a drastic change. Overall, I’m fine, thanks for those who cared :)

 

So, Chinese New Year is over.

 

I had a lot a lot of mummy’s home cooked festival food. And I am so missing it now.

 

I spent a lot of time playing with babies.

 

 

I have done some prayers, for the good health and fortune, and happiness around.

 

 

Did some groceries shopping, bought some ingredients for Valentines chocolate making, some wines for family gatherings.

 

I have been sms-ing a lot throughout the entire week of holiday.

 

 

I went on a family trip to the very vibrant oriental city – Hatyai.

 

And have been to floating market for the first time in my life.

 

 

Last week of February, we had a little farewell day for dearie Amber.

 

A luncheon at Madam Kwan Pavillion, a girls’ night out at Bambo9 TTDI Plaza, called it another year. We shall look forward to meet again next year.

 

2nd March, happy birthday to dearie Cindy. xoxo.

 

First weekend of March, I was at Genting for a Hong Kong actor cum stand up comedian Wong Tze Wah’s talk show.

Special thanks to my brother who bought double tickets to both Bangkok and this talk show, ended up it benefits me :p

 

Newly refurbished Theme Park Hotel, Genting Highland.

Finally it says bye bye to the former haunted ambience and being much much more cozy in it’s new look.

 

So yea… Basically this is how I spent my February till March. And I know, I shall continue keep this blog alive, I will. So stay tune :)

School’s Rock

#continue from my 26th Birthday Celebration post.

 

When we all aged, we have been missing our good old school time a lot.

On my 26th birthday, my jimuis (or to be very exact, wantik and Sharon who initiated the idea) decided to have this School Uniform Party. Yes the dresscode ain’t too crazy, the craziest thing ever is that we really dare dare made it in Velvet Underground wtf.

And the theme of the night was “Let’s make Velvet the biggest classroom ever!”. Double wtf.

*Extra long post warning*

The School’s Rock sign of the night – spot the pink balloons for our table.

 

When the night still young.

 

 

Door gifts for early birds – can you still recognize these old school snacks?

 

♥ Groupiee ♥

Oversea school uniform costumes are so sweet by wearing it act cute is a must-do.

This group looks like the senior class aren’t they?

Lwin’s Yakuza Japanese gangster uniform damn onz lor.

School of Rebellism.

 

 

Jessie the party babe.

The matchmade from heaven of the year in school.

 

Meet Rachel @ My Life My Soul.

Wantik and Sharon, who came out with the idea “let’s do school uniform party!!”.

 

♥ I will always wear complete uniforms to school ♥

Alfred and Esther who look utterly enjoyed being punished I don’t understand why.

So as for Han Ren I think he loves being in sandwich board.

    

 

♥ The miao-ish cake ♥

My birthday cake of this year, was like the best-est, cutest, heartiest ever cake in my life. And also miao-est.

Cupcakes which consist everything that I wanted.

 

To further explain it from left to right, clock wise:

The furthers left isn’t a tiger, it’s a miao . cat . neko. I was nicknamed miao by my mum since young, and I love miao a lot more than I love any other animals.

Go higher a bit, the next cupcake with a white cross above the blue dome. That’s the significant church in Santorini, the land where I fancied most on earth.

Now go slightly right, it’s a crown written “princess”.

The very last one at right, it’s a Chanel Vintage Quilted Flap.

 

It was such an adorable thoughtful cake. I can’t help aww-ed so much when they brought to me and eyes welled a bit.

 

The cake is too pretty it deserves to have another picture here in different angle.

If you think the miao figure looks familiar, yes it was taken from the avatar of this blogger also name as miao. Finger crossed I wouldn’t get sued for using his character. Or if you know him in person, please let him know that someone actually custom made birthday cake out of his uber cutie avatar :)

 

♥ Party Bear ♥

 

To my surprise he dropped by to pass me my “birthday present”.

 

   

♥ Velvet High School ♥

     

Love + peace @ School.

 

School’s roar.

 

School boys gone crazy.
