Delifrance Restaurant - From just flour to everything else

The one country i would love to visit some time. Actually, the first country i want to visit once i get my passport! Well, if i get my French up my sleeves first.

Delifrance is one bakery that gives you a hint of what the French eat. It has been around for a very, very long time. If not mistaken, older than me!

Anyways, Delifrance is now not only your average bakery serving one of the best croissant in Malaysia, it is now a restaurant! I think most of us know that right?

I went there for lunch this weekend cuz everywhere else was full-house - even McDonald's and the most organic restaurant i ever saw!

The food was something we can find at every western restaurant, from spaghetti to Lamb Shank!

SERVICE
Honestly, bad! The menu was not given to us when we were seated. They took very long to take our order. They serve the food quite slow (the soup came earlier than my mineral water!). So, to me, personally, the service was really bad that day. I guess it'll be better if there were less people.

FOOD
Food wise, it was mediocre. It felt that the chef was in hurry when he/she made it. Well, maybe he/she was. If they took time to actually present the food properly, and clean the side of the plate (finger prints on the plate - not a good sign!), i would probably enjoy my food more.

I should be less critical about it right? Alrite'!

Tuna D'licious

A chef recommendation. Tuna stuffed in their delicious croissant with green salad.
It looks more filling than it actually is.
I like it! A healthier alternative to carbs.

Spaghetti Bolognaise (Chicken)
Your ordinary spaghetti. I think everyone can make as equally as good
or better spaghetti. It was served with garlic bread,
which i thought was very hard.

Pancake Suzette

Sounds fancy? Not really. It's just flat pancake with apple cubes stuffed in it.
And of course, ice cream. The menu stated "hot" pancake but
the pancake was cold.
It was sour and sweet at the same time.
I wish the chef had putted more effort in presenting it.

Chicken Hot Pudding
One of their specialties - pastry! Yum!
This pastry looks like a mini pizza but really, it's not.
It has a crispy texture on the top and soft in the inside.
I think that's enough to make anyone drool.

Overall, i still love this place cuz of its pastry and satisfying enough for my tummy. :D

Say it isn't true...

As i was preparing for our once-in-a-blue-moon photoshoot like the rest of the team, i was suddenly hit by a big rock on my head. Ok, not literally but it felt that way.

Oprah Winfrey has just announced she will be ending her multi-million dollars and i just adore talk show! Her rep broke the news yesterday but she finally announced it herself in her day time show. I was in shocked! I mean, who doesn't love this woman? She helped me and many other women realize something about life. Her humour, her enthusiasm, her way of telling the world is just so... AMAZING! There are better ways to describe her but that's the word i will use for her.

An Amazing woman indeed! Seeing her tear up when she announced the bad news made me shed a tear as well.

Here's the video of the moment...

Watsup peeps!

It's Deepavali today!!! Whee~~~
This is officially the first year i actually celebrate this day. I never, in my life, celebrate this day. My collogue invited me and some of my co-worker including my sis to her house for her Deepavali open house. It was all the way in Klang and we end up getting lost. We drove all the way to Port Klang, which was way and i mean WAYYYyyy.... past her house. If we drove straight, he would nd up floating in the sea water. LO.L!

But we manage to find our way, somehow. We found the area but we didn't know where the road was. So, at the end of the day, we failed to go to her house by ourselves cuz we ended up meeting her at the patrol station to lead us there...................

Anyway, it was a great experience to her house and i enjoyed myself. Right now, i'm starving even though i ate so many pieces of chicken and cookies...

Me, signing out for today. Bye my lovely readers!

Today is Saturday!

Hey hey people! I miss my blog so so much. It seems like it has been ages since i posted something here! How's life? Here's a list of what's new in my so-so life:-

1. I started a new job and seem to be loving it!
2. Met lots of new people and they seem really nice people.
3. I met up with my bestie this week...
4. I'm trying to make my new year resolution come through by looking at life differently...
5. What else?
6. Hmmm...................
7. *tick tock tick tock*
8. ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz.....................
9. Oh wait! There's All American Rejects' concert coming up!
10. Wheee..................

Yesterday my dad's friend invited us for a Mid-Autumn Festival party (a.k.a. Mooncake Festival OR Tanglong Festival!). And on the ride home, me and my dad had a serious talk. I told him about how my emotions affects my mood etc... etc... I know right! I'm actually telling my dad, my father, intimate stuff about me! And by intimate i mean, personal... It actually feels kinda nice to talk to my dad. He even manage to give some word of wisdom which i think really inspiring!
Thanks daddy!


Now, i see life differently and i hope it will go a long way... Smile and the whole world will smile with you...

Cheers~

MTV World Stage in Malaysia!

Arrived at Pyramid in the afternoon. Police and guards standing around. Random people hanging around the entrance of Sunway Pyramid and Sunway Lagoon theme park. All waiting for the moment of truth. No, I'm not talking about Swine flu. It's MTV World Stage, baby!

3 reasons why i went. First, i haven't been to a concert before, so i wanted to try. Second, it's right after my final (double the reason for me to go and party). Third, my favourite band is playing!!! (The more i want to go).

The show was kick off by our local bang, Estranged, which i have to say, they really know how to kick things off. They played 3 songs. I only know 2 of the songs they played. At the last song they played, they made the crowd bend down (predictably to make us jump). I don't blame them for doing that cuz i understand it's to make the crowd active. But the moment he said, "Jump!", everyone, front, back, side, middle, all banged on each other. I was squash and pushed around by all the people around me. Not a good highlight. It was already a very uncomfortable standing position - very cramped and it was raining. And the jumping didn't help much. It just made it more uncomfortable and cramper.

Next stop is the one i was waiting for - the one that made me go to this event, BOYS LIKE GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!! I was honestly excited and i went bizzard! I was waiting and praying and hoping to see them live and i finally got that wish. Although i was far away from the sate and can hardly see them, i still manage to get a glimpse of Martin and Paul (H-O-T!). The first song they sang was their new single off their new album, Love Drunk. The whole crowd sang along. Next, they sang my personal favourite, Thunder and Hero/Heroin. I sang my heart out. The feeling was awesome. While they were singing Thunder, it started drizzling again but stopped eventually. The last song was the song that made me fall in love with them, The Great Escape! Woo-Hoo!!!
Getting all hyped up and excited, unfortunately, i didn't get to enjoy the performance because half the time i was being pushed around once again like a ping pong ball and all squash in between sweaty people (eeewww.. i know!) But i was happy to just hear their voice live. Heard they are having a concert in Malaysia this coming October (VIP tickets, here i come!).



After being squeeze like a can of sardine, Jon, Ray, and I decided to go behind, away from the sardine crowd and grab a drink. Anyway, it was a break for the audience. So, we spent the rest of the concert behind and far away from the stage but at least still viewable and less cramped. We grabbed a drink for ourselves and guess what? It's RM5 for each drink! I had 2, so that means i spent RM10 on drinks itself. That's close to a cup of Starbuck's Flappacino! So, remind me next time when my career ever fails, i just need to open one satay stall at any concert and sell them for RM5 per stick!!! Muahahahaha! My evillll plan! XD

The next performance was Raygun and then Pixie Lott. Honestly, i have not heard of them until this event. Sad. But at least i heard of their songs on MTV before. I did dance to their music but i didn't know the song. Their performance was not bad but if they had more FM plays, they would probably have more impact on the audience.

After being entertain by the DJ with awesome songs, it was time for......... drum-roll please........

HOOBASTANK!!!

Their performance outshine the rest who performed (Yes, i have to admit, even BLG's). They sang their new singles from their albums and their most, and i mean most popular song that made them famous, The Reason. They whole crowd and i mean THE WHOLE CROWD, sang along to the song. It was an awesome feeling. I think the crowd made Malaysia proud for a change. I love their performance so much. And before they sang that song and turn the crowd upside down, they teased the crowd with a famous theme song, the Ghostbusters theme song. They said it's one of their new songs on their albums. LOL! The whole crowd scream and shouted, "Ghostbusters" when they sang, "Who're you gonna call?". A memorable performance to me.

Besides Hoobastank who made us all crazy and wild, the most anticipated performance by a band that is from the same state with my fav band, Boston, THE ALL AMERICAN REJECTS!



Their performance was off-the-hook! Totally love them now! If you ask me which performance do i prefer, Hoobastank or The All American Rejects, i'll faint for you cuz that is one difficult question. Their performance was awesome as well. They performed songs from their latest album and also It Ends Tonight which is my favourite song by them ever! Tyson, the lead singer was sweating like nobody's business (all of the performers did) sang his lungs out. Me too sang and shouted my lungs out. AHH! Talking about it brings back so much energy. My energy was so high like as if i just ate or drank some energy-booster pill or something, considering i didn't eat my dinner!

Kasabian was the next to perform. An guess what? After AAR performed, many people started making their way out. Sad for Kasabian. The host aka MTV VJs tried to make them stay but there were an army of them just leaving the surf beach. I only stayed until the second song by Kasabian (again, haven't heard about them before but i know they are really popular in the U.K.) I have to say, although many had left, there were still a majority of them who stayed and supported them.That's the Malaysian spirit!

All and all, it was a amazing concert and i didn't regret going although the pushing and body hugging distance with the people around me was a total turn off, i will definitely attend another concert but maybe VIP style. XD

This is my first time to a concert so i'm not sure how to grade this event but i'll most probably give an "A" or a 8.5 out of 10.

It's Your Birthday!

Say it with me people - It's your birthday..... (50 cents' song is playing in my head right now). It is not my birthday. My birthday could be said to be either past long time ago or it's too early...
It's my grandma's bday! YEHH!!!
I don't know what i'm so excited about. Yesterday my whole family and i mean the WHOLE family gathered to celebrate her very special day. We went for dinner at Paramount and the bill shot up to RM300!!! Must be the prawns and fish.
It was also celebrating my cousin's birthday since their bday falls on the same day. They have their own separate cake. My aunt baked cheese cake for my cousin which was Delish! It was a Ben-10 cake (Ben-10 is a cartoon on Cartoon Network) with action figure on top. So cute!
Here's some pic:

The dishes

Makan-makan...

The birthday girl!

eww... my uncle eat the fish head and it was looking at me...
O.O

Grandma's birthday cake

My cousin's birthday cake

Singing along...

Blow the candles, blowww...

everyone enjoying their cake

a gift my cousin made for my grandma

the inside.. so cute...

At the end of the day, after all our stomach was full, my aunt and I started discussing about Mother's day. We were planning our responsibilities. I was responsible for doing the drinks. So, i'll be the bartander for the day.

Today, I am so bored! B-O-R-E-D!

God knows how am i gonna spend the rest of my college break...

halooo.....

I can consider my life to be pretty crazy these days. I got back my marketing assignment marks and boy, was i taken by surprise. It was not the kind of marks i usually get. I got 9 out of 20!!! That is worse than bad. That is terrible *@#$^*% freaking bad! I so wanted to cry but i didn't but i eventually did when i talk to my bestie Mun about it, and again when i told my mom. And no, it was not a technique use to get sympathy. I was really, really upset. Not to brag or anything, i don't usually get that low in my assignments or test. Assignments especially! I try very hard not to get that kind of marks cuz i used to get them in highschool. So i told myself not to get them in college. *Sigh* I broke that pledge. Anyway, on the very same day, i had my very last test for the semester. Test not exam. Final exam is next month. I was so happy till i wrote a shoutout on my Facebook saying how happy i am. But later in the day, i wrote i am depressed. How ironic isn't it? Today i was so free and i admit, i miss the TV so much. I finally get to sit down and really watch television, with the remote in my hands. *evil laugh*

(my nails. it's pink so can't really see)

I even had time to paint my nails. *Laugh* But i still have assignments and project due next week, so, eventually i had to off the TV and on the computer. First thing i did was Facebooking. XD I know..... I'm becoming naughty. But whatever...

My group leader for the marketing project asked me to do a couple of things. So, i had to do research and stuff. Not an easy task to do. I had to find out the rental and stuff. Nevermind... ignore what i said.

Ok, got to go. Ciao~

Try and try again...

Today was a "getting down and dirty" day. I spring clean my room and closet. I took out all the old, unwanted clothes to donate it away. No thanks to my big sis, i have to clean her share too. She told me that she didn't want the old clothes anymore so, me as the poor little sis have to clean it up for her.

I also did some baking today. I wasn't any good at it but i enjoy the process of baking something. I baked brownie muffins. For 25 minutes, i waited... Finally it was ready. When i took out from the oven, it looked alright and surprisingly taste alright. But(there's always a "but") the bad news? It stick to the muffin cup. I guess i have to eat the paper as well...

I wanted to give some muffin to my aunt since her wedding is coming up(as a wedding present from me to her). Unfortunately, faith has it's own idea. The muffin was a total disaster, i must say. I felt really dissapointed. Not because it turn out that way, it's because i had this whole idea of presenting it to someone. Now i can't. Oh well... An advise so common, "Never to give up."

And so, i will not. I'll try and try again but i think i'll put baking cakes and muffins aside for awhile. For now it'll just be baking cookies(which are way easier to make)!
