I Love Food Message: I've grown up to love and appreciate the food laid out in front of me. My family members love food as much as I do. Its just a pity that my appetite is not as big as theirs. But I do manage to eat a lot when there's really really good food. I love all kinds of cuisine but have a soft spot for anything spicy. I cook for myself when I have the time. I bake for my family. And sometimes its perfect, sometimes its not. I'm not a professional chef, but I do love cooking. The aroma flowing out of the kitchen door is always the best, whereas the aroma coming out of the toilet door after a satisfying meal is not my favourite. There's so much more to know about me. Guess you're just going to have to find out. More about me. It's Chinese Take Out Time Adventures With Chopsticks

Saturday, March 15, 2008 I decided that since this is the 300th post... I'll FINALLY do a review on food. Its been... AGES since I've wrote in my food blog, which ultimately is no longer alive, as this is the primary blog and I guess everything will just be... on here now. Unless I decide to change my mind later in life again. Hehehe. So yes, we had this dinner, LAST year. Parent's Anniversary to be exact. Oh don't worry, there's MANY other food posts that I haven't done. Sigh! I wonder why I kept it till so long. Hahaha.. Oh oh, I know!!! BECAUSE I was busy with... 1) college 2) classes 3) studies 4) exams 5)... But anyway moving along, last year, we had dinner at Kin-no-uma. Its a Japanese restaurant in Palace of the Golden Horses. We go there quite frequently... but lately not so. So here are the pictures. Sorry some of them were blur... camera was running out of battery and I just had to snap as quick as possible. And as yummy as possible. You are lucky I took the photos before digging in. Hahaha... ENJOY~~  THE lovely complimentary appetizer they served. Its quite a small portion but... I tell you its... DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! They ALWAYS give some sort of complimentary appetizer. This is jellyfish... I LOVE. And other times they give you beansprout, or seaweed, or fish... many things.. and they are ALWAYS DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! A satisfied me. I'd lick the plate if I was alone. Hahaha. Japanese Green Tea.. Cali-californian roll. I always wondered why they were called Californian rolls... It Japanese rolls or something I understand la. Lol... But this... is a must have dish whenever I step into a Japanese restaurant. UNAGI!!!!! Another MUST HAVE dish when I step into ANY Japanese Restaurant. I love love love love love LOVEEEE this. The way they cook it and everything. ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!!!! Btw, that lump at the left side, that's potato salad... LOVE LOVE LOVE! Ah, Unagi and Rice... I love. My favourite most satisfying Japanese dish EVER! hahaha, when I was younger, everytime we went to a Jap restaurant, I'd order this. ALWAYS... Seafood fried rice. Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!!! They also have Garlic fried rice... which is ALSO delicious!!! This is basically, rice with salmon and you pour the soup from the teapot and it kinda becomes porridge. Although it is a little simple, its tasty. The soup has the taste. And its not oily and stuff... So yea. Crab crab crab!!!!!!!!!!! the big big one! Very nice. It was on offer that time. Pregnant fish. I LOVE this... BUT then, I've had better pregnant fish before. Not the best. Assorted sushi. All the raw fish... *shivers* I never liked sashami.. Damn funny feeling.Overall, the food is satisfactory. I've decided to give up on the whole rating thing. And I love the little side portion of salad and whatever it is... its yummmmmy! Labels: dinner out, events, food, japanese Wednesday, October 10, 2007 I had lunch today at Tai Thong Grand Restaurant, Wisma Selangor Dredging. Its opposite KLCC, a different block from British Council and IDP. After college, I went to meet up with my parents. My dad had already ordered whilst waiting for me. When I arrived, I spotted one of my favourite dim sum dishes. I eyed it for awhile, before deciding to take a seat with my parents. Hmm, whilst waiting for the food I decided to get that dish I was eying. Its delicious. "wu tau" or " yùtóu jiǎo" or taro dumpling. For the record, taro is actually YAM!!!!!!! I was searching for the 'official' name of it, and got soooo annoyed when I couldn't find it. After realising that taro is actually yam, I got it right. The pictures are not pictures taken by me, I took it off the web. I didn't have my camera with me so yea... =P  Taro dumpling or "wu tau" or " yùtóu jiǎo" is actually a kinda of Chinese pastry. Its main filling is pork with some sauce. Green peas and mushrooms are optional. The outer coat is made of yam which is then deep-fried. Its pretty oily and we all know that I don't particularly favour oily food. But I always make a very special exception for this. *drools* After that came the Shark's Fin Soup. My dad ordered the Shark Fin Soup with Ginseng. There was no 'ajinomoto' and it was clear soup - NO STARCH!!!! Yeah!! I'm not actually a big fan of shark's fin. I do find it a cruel thing to do to animals. Chop the fin and then throw the shark back into the sea. That's pure cruelty. I do refrain from shark's fin quite often. But when there are special occasions, I do eat it. Let's just make it clear that I DO NOT support the cruelty. I mean yes, I can always choose not to have it. And I do actually do that most occasions. But if I were to be a strong supporter of "Stop Cruelty to Animals" I'd be a vegetarian.Anyway, I didn't really want it. But not gonna lie and say that I hate it completely. I just feel that I, well my parents, could save the money instead.  There was also steamed fish. But I'm not too sure what fish it was. Anyhow, yes, there was abalone. Not exactly like this. It was braised abalone, with tofu and broccoli. The tofu was absolutely DELICIOUS! The texture was a little rough on the outside but inside was absolutely soft and omg! it kinda melted in my mouth. Yes, tofu kinda melted in my mouth. *droools* I loved it soooo much. The abalone was a little tough and well it's meant to be chewy right?See why I said it was fit for s King? Btw, if you must know, the bill came up to RM752. I was actually planning to pay because it was my parent's wedding anniversary. But I didn't know my parents ordered such luxurious food. I swear I nearly fainted when I saw the bill. It was for THREE people.... Sigh... Hahhaha, but its a once a year thing. LOL! Not bad lunch. Definitely enjoyed the lunch out alone with my parents. =D Food - 8.5/10 Service - 8.5/10 Ambiance - 8/10 Quite high ratings ok!!! My dad knows the chef and managers, so yea, the food and service has extra marks. well they did service us well. =D |
