Sweet Hut

Since we're on to desserts, here's another place I would recommend. This place is called Sweet Hut and it's locate at Jalan Kuchai Lama. A friend recommended me to this place and I kinda like the different varieties they have there.

I can't seem to find my receipt for this place and hence, no proper names for the desserts but I'll try to describe them as best as I could. 




Mango pudding & coconut. Actually mango slices with pudding served in coconut.




Some caramel pudding with ice. I wouldn't call it ice cream. Its more of ice shaving but very nice, soft and fluffy.




Almond pudding with sago.




Peanut soup




Almond pudding with mango slices and sago. 

This place is actually not bad. They have snacks like egg tarts and cakes as well. Check out their website.

Snowflake

My next few posts will be all about food and desserts I had in MidValley Megamall. Just in case you're wondering why I have so many posts on food in MidValley, well firstly, I'm no longer in Penang but staying in KL now and MidValley just happens to be the nearest all-in-one shopping mall. I do my groceries there, posts my mails there and pay my bills there!! 

Anyway, there seems to be an increase in the liking for desserts over here. Desserts shops seems to be opening up everywhere!! But the one that I love most is Snowflake. Kinda got addicted to taroballs!!


Love this beeping UFO thingy. This little UFO is given to you upon ordering.


And it will start vibrating once your order is ready to be collected.

My all time favorite, Snowflake Bestseller - grass jelly soup, taroballs, peanuts & pearls.


Tried the cold version too with added creamer but I prefer the hot version better.

Japan Combo - green tea taroballs, soya ice, baby pearls and red beans. 




Coco Ono - coconut ice, taroballs, okinawa sweet potato, baby pearls and gula melaka. 

I've tried the 'imitation' version too ... like from this place called QQ Snowmix at Sri Petaling. Somehow, I prefer Snowflake.

Dragon-I, MidValley Megamall

After a disappointing lunch at Pancake House, we've decided to have a better dinner at Dragon-I MidValley Megamall. Don't know how many times I've had my dinner there and still never got bored of the food. 

A simple dinner for 2 persons consists of ...

Egg

Chicken cubes cooked with dried chilli

Tofu & Mushroom

Simple dishes for a simple dinner and very satisfied indeed.

Pancake House, MidValley Megamall

Since moving down to KL, MidValley Megamall has become my second home. No more Gurney Plaza so next best and nearest and most convenient, MidValley. Shopping wise, I actually prefer Gurney Plaza, but MidValley is extremely convenient coz they have banks and post office as well!! Everything is there and parking is reasonably cheap for a KL shopping mall.

A quick lunch stop at Pancake House before resuming shopping and errands at MidValley Megamall. This place is quite packed during lunch. Perhaps coz they have reasonably priced set lunches. Sort of like a cheaper version of Paddington Pancakes.

Not too bad selections of set lunches and other ala carte food.

Our set lunch comes with Ice Lemon Tea

This Asparagus Soup is not included in the set lunch. This is actually a separate order, and a rather bad choice. Rather disappointed with the canned soup. No asparagus taste ... just some canned soup taste with a dash of chilli powder. Not good at all.

Burger that comes with the set lunch. Nothing special about this burger either. Any other fast food burger tastes the same, or might be even better.

Anyway, I was rather disappointed with this place. Don't know why this place is always packed but seriously, the food is so-so only and the service is horrible!! One person working on a packed day. He's the waiter, he's the cashier, and I suppose, he might as well be the cook!!!

Good seafood, reasonable price.

Another birthday meal for the family was at Pantai Seafood. The last time I went there was years ago and I absolutely loved the food there.

This time, we went there for lunch instead of dinner. This place offers set meals for lunch, ranging from RM70 onwards, for 4 pax onwards as well. Not too bad for a seafood lunch.


Winter melon soup

Butter Garlic Prawns

Pork

Tofu

Seamed Fish

Not bad for a set for 4 pax. And the entire meal, plus rice and tea costs less than RM100. Very reasonable indeed.
