Saturday, 24th May 2008 - Anything and everything under the sun and the moon :)

I love it when it's saturday coz it means no work and looking forward to spend quality time doing anything to everything with mon coeur and just enjoying the weekend together. I guess these are the times to cherish the time we can spend time out with each other and just be merry doing things we like doing and not wait until its too late to do them. Looks like we have a lot of travelling to do during the coming months and weeks be it domestically or internationally so we are very much looking forward to this "escapades" as we both call it and since this is our first time travelling with each other i guess theres plenty of things to look forward to :)

And so these saturday is no different from any other weekends we had so far just that we get to expereince different things , and going to different places and taste different food and all the good stuffs indeed ;)

For breakfast, mon coeur was the one who was fixing it and this is what he fixed for me :)

cute ain't it :)

This particular mug is very special to both of us coz this was my first present to mon coeur and now i have to get the other colour which is the opposite colour to this one so that we both can have it the same kind.

Yes we went to sungai buloh again but since it was raining , i cant take any pics :(
But after that we went straight to Bangsar to get our weekly supplies of groceries and fruits and vegies at the Pasar Malam Bangsar.

Right after finishing with the groceries shopping we went back home and prepare to go to our dinner date with Opus :)

Here is Opus! Mon coure was raving about the food and wine over @ Opus and he said he would take me there and was supposed to go there last week but unfortunately, to go to this place you need to make reservation as this place is always full.

Opus is situated not too far away from Bangsar as its still in Bangsar just different area. And situated at the same row of shop is where "Cava" is and also going to be our next dinner date :)

Mon coeur and his ermm.....comme ci, comme ça wine hehehe :)


and here is moi and my OK wine :)


this is my food and i think its called grilled sea bass with asparagus in white wine
which was delish! i cant explain how much i adore this food! The taste is just so out of this world. I told mon coeur that i need to get me some wine for me to experiment with some recipe that needs wine in it, so definately, cooking wine will be in my groceries next week ;)



Mon coeur had these chicken in white creame sauce with spaghetti! Also very tasty and yummy :) Bien sûr!

As for desert, Mon coeur had his eyes on the tiramisu cake on the menu and thats exactly what he got tiramisu in a glass :)

As for moi, i went to look at the cake display for dessert and fell inlove with this banana hot in a choc fudge! gosh its the yummiest dessert ever! But only thing is its way toooo big of a portion for me! the size was really humungous! But anyhow..it was delish! I was all chocked out for this baby! hahaha

Our wonderful evening ended with a smile on both our lips for it was a delightful evening and food was manifique and kudos to Opus for a wonderful place to dine although they can improve much much more on their wine selection :)


A bientôt!

Just another weekend

Well, and yet again i have my parents and myself this Sunday too and at the earliest of morning i could hear my mom calling me to eat breakfast and coffee with her which seems to be the routine thesedays....On sunday usually my dad will go and get breakfast for us and that includes a few types of "Kueh's" like the home made donouts and some "Tausa Pau" and for me me he usualy bought me the all so famous 60Cents Nasi lemak where we usually get at school during school days and also some "Bi Hoon" and "Mee goreng" which worth a dollar each. So mom would usually call me from the kitchen to get up and have breakfast with her and after some cleaning up go and have the morning breakfast and munch away my "nasi lemak" yummmmy :)

Sunday is the only tme where i allow myself to eat nasi lemak..coz its too rich for everyday consume so its like a treat for me really to have Nasi lemak on sunday and also the highlight of my long no breakfsast routine during the weekdays. I think the banana leaf is what made the whole nasi lemak so yummy to eat..and the sambal of course and the little small "ikan masin" yummy ...hehehe..and its just 60cents. But the portion is really small which is good coz you dont want to over indulge in this food really and a little deprivation of this will surely makes up till the next time you ill have it which is for me until next sunday :)

This also brings me during the time when moncoeur was visiting and we had breakfast together and it was a really a contrast betwen the East and the west where we both have different stuffs on our plates and its funny but we still get to taste both food in the end . was really nice..just to prove my point here is a picture of our breakfast food together coutesy of Promenade Hotel :) I was having asian stuffs all the time and he would still stcik to the food that he is use to BUT with a small twist to it...you can say, we both did a little bit of mix and match. He had some hard boil eggs nasi lemak style with the sambal with his usual bread and butter stuffs and i had my usual nasi lemak and bi hoon + something western which is fish something with some baked beans and tomatoes :-) But im so very glad that he can still adapt to some of our food and so we both get to enjoy them together. But i too like western food..A LOT! hehehehe

And then there was lunch time :) Mom cook some "fried rice" with some "sweet and sour fish" to go with it and another famous dish of hers and thats "ayam masak Kicap" Nenek-mother style. Goshhhh! what a treat it was...hehehe :) Can hardly wait for dinner time ;) In other words..im so "gondo-ot" hahahah!

Well next week is my turn to cook and here are the list of things i will be trying out ;) This morning, after breakfast we watch this cooking programme and i managed to get the recipe for some of th quick and easy dish that was prepared by the moroccan chef naly Chef Iqbal so mom too was saying that its worth to try it out next weekend indeed ;)

Next Weekend food to bake and cook for my mom :)

1. Lamb shanks with baby carrot & prunes

2. Wholemeal bread

3.Calzones ( Inspired by my cousin Envy's blog post)

4.fruit salad

ok will try to make all of this if possible for my mom on Sunday. My treat for her and hope she likes it and i appoint my sister superVixen to help stir what needs to stir coz she's a pretty marvelous stirer hehehehe :)

Im going to be a salad person for now at least try to master the art of fixing a Salad and also eating them is together another different story hehehe...but this is going to be my goal this month. to get back in shape and do some excercising and cut down on some heavy duty food thats not going to be good for my health and cook more healthy food. So i've said it but doing it yet again another challenge. But i will try my best coz i want to look good and be healthy at the same time.

Food for thought!
