Mill Wheel Ice-Cream Shop, Metroprima Kepong

So after the steamboat dinner, fetched the girlfriends for a supper, dessert. Located at Metroprima area, and I remember this shop was being interviewed by one of the tv food programme. We tried, and it was really good or at least better than what I expected.


Basically, they served dessert which is very snowy, I think you will understand better if you have been there.


Chocolate Snow, RM5.90. Very chocolatey!!


Chocolate Parfeit, RM7.90. With cookies on it.


Mango Cheese which tastes really great but I dislike the yoghurt-like cheese underneath it, RM5.90.


*Thumbs up!* I really quite like this shop, will definitely return there someday. When??? Hopefully soon. =)

The Ketam Village Steamboat @ Waterfront

22/8/08
Went for dinner with the girlfriends at Waterfront, it was my first time eating out at this steamboat restaurant. I personally think that it is like no other steamboat, which means I find it rather simple and common. Somehow, it still not that bad. We ordered a single combo and another double combo, as well as two other ala carte which I forgotten to take pictures. Oopsiee!

The Steamboat Ketam Village. Okay la, I know you can read that.


Single combo, about RM15.90!? Correct me if I'm wrong, not too sure with the price.


Double combo ermm, around RM28.90? Really not sure.


I'm really hopeless, check out the price if you really want. Don't trust me so much. But I remember it was around that range la. Oh ya, not to forget. They served tomyam soup as well, very sour but not so spicy. Service was satisfying, and we were well air-conditioned. Hmm, that's all I guesss.

'Tim Pan KorKor' Hong kong Dessert, Metroprima Kepong

Went for dessert at a HK dessert shop at Kepong area. At the beginning, me and the sister entered the wrong shop. Realising that we entered a cafe shop instead of dessert shop, we left that shop (HAHA) and found the right one. Well, sad to say that the menu was all written in Chinese and we don't know how to read at all. Get a boy to become the translator, he described each and every of the dessert well.

I'm not fully stupid, still know how to read the word 'kor kor'. Nothing to be proud of being a partial banana like me.


All the desserts looked so good, can't really make up my mind. And I would say the price wasn't that reasonable but worth it as for the food quality.


The menu were all in Chinese, it would be better if you could bring along friends who can read and understand Chinese. No English nor Malay description. Come on, this is M'sia. How can this happen?


Okay, I don't know what you call this (fa sang wu + hak zhi ma??). But still, it tastes good though they did not combine it nicely. RM6.50


My favourite Mango Hor Fun! A bowl of hor fun which is made of coconut milk and flour topped with sweet mango! RM7.50

Even Karmen just went there and tried their Mango Hor Fun, she said thumbs up too!!! Don't know la, I just likeeee it so much! Waaaaa, so nice! Perfecto! Woootssssss~!!!

The hor fun was very fine and smooth that eventually, I can slurp it into my big mouth! =)


The desserts were all scrumptious and damn mouth-watering. No taxes are included. That's the nett price. Location...erm, just opposite the horrible German Cuisine I blogged previously. Why not give a try? ;)

Stadt German Cuisine & Bistro

Had dinner with my family at Stadt German Cuisine somewhere at Kepong Metroprima. It was just 10mins drive from my house and the dinner was a disappointing one! They served mainly pork, especially pork knuckle. I was expecting it to taste at least 50% like the pork knuckle I once had in German a few years back *best served with black forest cake with rum!* Considering that I'm living in Malaysia, I don't have high expectation on the pork and of course, it is impossible to taste 100% similar.

Back to Stadt Cuisine, their service sucks! That place was almost full. They have so many waiters and waitress yet it was so difficult to get someone to place an order for us. Really difficult! And how dare they still wanna charge us for service tax which I think it is not worth paying at all.

Pork Cordon Bleu - shallow fried rolled pork escalop stuffed with bacon rasher, turkey ham, melted cheese served with mixed vegetables - RM22.90.


Mother claimed that my dish looked good, without controlling herself she immediately ate my vegetable and poured on chilli sauce. Let me review this dish.
1) The pork was overcooked!
2) The so called 'mashed potato' doesn't taste like mashed potato at all. Not fine and smooth. Taste more like cooked pebbles to me.
3) The mixed vegetable was cold, and I don't know which part of my dish looked tempting.


Grilled and roasted pork chop served with mashed potato and mixed vegetables - RM22.90.


BBQ spare pork ribs with glazed honey - bbq roasted pork ribs glazed with honey and bbq sauce served with mashed potato and mixed vegetables - RM22.90


German bratwurst - german juicy grilled pork sausage, saukerkaut and mustard sauce - RM17.90


Yeah, I agreed that the dining environment was not bad BUT the food served and services... Aiyo, I told my sister, 'This restaurant is slightly below average". She said "No, it is very far below average ok." Mummy said "This will be our first and also our last time." Daddy said "This is a 'one-time-go' restaurant." You know, when daddy said 'one-time-go', it means the food must be really bad cos he has never been picky / choosy over food.

Trust me, I don't exaggerate in my food blog (but yeah in my own blog HAHA). It is a food blog, meant to review food. I was quite angry when I google out the restaurant's food review and to my surprise, the reviews were all great! It was a joke of the day to me. Go here and here. I don't understand them and I'm wondering if they are paid to do so.


I googled others review and in a few blogs, someone actually commented about this German Cuisine. That particular person seems to be the same person who commented on all other food blog. Or perhaps, I am too 'sensi', I mean senstitive.


My eldest sister suggested we should try Bavarian Bierhaus at The Curve *hmm, is that obvious enough that I rather promote a restaurant which I never been before!*, a German cuisine as well. And mummy suggested that we should search for food at K.L rather than such place. Sad to say, the suckness of this restaurant gave me a very bad impression on the whole Kepong Metroprima area although there are so many other dessert shop and restaurants there.

And I don't understand why the tv program 'One Day Five Meal' tend to visit most of the restaurants at the same Kepong area and her review was always thumbs up! I'm really wondering if all the food she recommended tastes good.

Jack's Place, One Utama

the other day... my soh poh kuisan wanted to treat me a belated birthday lunch..
so she decided to bring me to the Jack's Place in one utama since i never tried b4..
we went in with two other friend, Darshana and Chooi Yee ..

we flipped through the menu.... the prices are quite expensive so we choose the set lunch that comes with a cream soup, main course and a scoop of ice cream..

san and darsh ordered ****************** and i ordered ******************

our soup came first.. mine was cream soup
this was not nice at all.. so dun expect me to say much bout this soup.

san's mushroom soup

better than mine ofcourse.. BUT this is a very very average taste mushroom soup.. me n san even agreed that our homemade campbell soup could even tasted better.. =.="

Next was san's and darsh's dish, deep fried chicken with ******* sauce


tasted a little and it was not bad for me.. San thinks that this dish quite suckie and hence, she categorizes this post under 'Yuckie' category!

and then mine came....

dory fillet with calamansi sauce.. it looks nice but tasted HORRIBLE.. REALLY HORRIBLE! Its just so YUCK >.<
i took two bites and thats it.. i really couldnt accept it..
so i call the waiter and told them i really really couldnt accept the taste of the sauce at all..

And the waiter changed a new dish for me which is okay okay only, same dish as san and darsh but mine is not deep fried chicken la.

Overall, Jack's Place set lunch is a waste of my money and never in my life I will return to this place for the set lunch, NEVER.

Sushi Zanmai @ 1 Utama

We finish coll at 1.30 on fridays.. Ofcourse have to find for some entertainment rite.. keke ^^
Me, san and chooi yee wanted to have our lunch at sushi zanmai since me n sansan haven tried their food yet..

heard lotz of rave bout sushi zanmai.. san said wanna critisize them 'kau kau' if their food not nice bcuz too much ppl raving bout them ady @.@ .. eeyer.. so scary..

kaka anywayz.. it was not really packed *luckily* at that time, so we dun have to queue up. Got our seats and flip through the menu instantly..

The menu is almost 85% the same as rakuzen's menu except that they have very very limited zen, which means set in japanese. and also another major difference is their price...
I used to wander how can they have almost the same menu but zanmai's price are all almost half the price of rakuzen's. They r under the same headquarters summore le.. @.@
BUT, its true.. Cheap price doesnt means its really 'cheap' if u noe wat i mean..
BCUZ... they cut the price into half, the serving aso they cut half T.T
where can liddat....... sobz...

i was contemplating between the unagi lunch box which is ard RM15++ or salmon sashimi lunch box which is RM 9.90. U think itz cheap?? think again cuz the bowl they use to serve is onli the size of our bowl of rice (mayb even smaller T.T) with 5 pieces of EXTREMELY THIN SLICE of salmon. T.T T.T T.T T.T

actually the salmon was not bad but bcuz of their stinginess >.< style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">I personally think the salmon doesn't taste that great, not salmoney enough... sound so pathethic .. wat to do, too thin slice ady ..


i ordered another of my favouritiezzz, chuka idako ( seasoned baby octopus) i noe lotzzzz of u out there dun like.. i used to hate this too.. but after trying it again, i FELL IN LOVE WITH IT :D haha.. The baby octopus they serve was not bad just average..
