SoHo Restaurant One Utama

The interior..contemporary..

Ginseng Ooloong Tea..quite nice

Suet choy fried rice...nothing great..bit of wet

Braised Beef Lai Mien..soup and noodle fine..meat taste sweet?!

Suet choy rice with fried pork chops...rice was tasteless..meat as hard as stone

Crispy duck Lai Mien (picture not available)- Duck Meat Way Too Salty.. BAD

Service was Very good..as what you've paid..Very pricey in my opinion.. RM73.00 for Fried rice and noodles? Sorry..No more next time~

DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA DILEMMA

There has been too much emotions going on..and somehow i do not know how to express it out...been sick for too long that i couldn't even remember...things aren't working too well...i would say it's a bad start for the year and i hope the future will be getting better..

I wish i could do some self improvement this year...tried and i keep failing myself...today has become the worst day of the year...never have this feeling for a while..and it came back to me..i broke down with tears...i feel the pain..i do..

I need to leave for vacation again..

Restaurant Reviews

Had a really nice weekend...was lucky that i had a chance to tried out 3 different restaurants and cafes in 2 days...so now im gonna giv some reviews on them..

Eden Restaurant The Curve
Docor was Way too Simple..its so empty..i don't mean the occupancy..the ceiling is so high that it reflects sound...nothing looks like a western restaurant..more like a family cafe to me...there's not 'warmth'

Service was So so..the waiter can't really understands and speak English well..i wanted sour cream but given the ribs sauce..??! sour cream and lea & perrins requested were placed on a soya sauce plate?! huh?! fine..oriental eh?

My chef's recommended ribs taste really weird..served with thier 'special' sauce which tasted like satay + tomato sauce..i can hardly describe the taste..meat was tender but too bad..comtaminated by the sauce..twin terderloin for my sista in well done...not too bad..my dad had his lambchops..juicy as well..Yum..with my fav mint sauce..

the ribs

sis's terderloin



Paddington House of Pancakes
Nice ambience...very English style...except that it was a bit crowded inside..

Service was okay..nothing great~

Food..oh well..more than a 100 things to choose from; 1 hard decision..i was scratching my head..my heart was kinda 1516..hahhaha..TOO many choices..but at last i chose an American breakfast look alike pancake..while he ordered a 'pannekeok'..oh whatever it spells..looks more like a pizza to me..juicy! Mine was kinda dry..it
comes with guacamole(an avocado-based relish or dip) which i pretty much like it..


my gallette


the pannekeok


Ciao Caffe Ristorante
Ambience was so great..candle lights..soft music..just perfect!

Staff was being helpful all the time..friendly..

Fine Dining...everything looks good on the menu..the main was good and so do the desserts! And i had wine..lol

GNOCCHI AL GORGONZOLA
Potato and spinach dumpling with Gorgonzola cheese and cream sauce

RAVIOLI DI PESCE CON CAPESANTE E ZAFFERANO
Squid ink seafood ravioli served with scallops, rocket salad and saffron cream sauce

It was Deeparaya holidays...nothing much have been done...as usual..went for junior meeting..but this time i've made egg mayo sandwiches along..recipe from a fren...taste really good...kinda like an achievement for me..hehe..happy!

Went for wedding dinner at legend hotel on saturday..it was the most disappointing dinner ever..hey ppl out there, please never pay them any visit..lousy lousy lousy

Met up with my cuzzy on sunday for karaoke...Neway was pretty! We were having such a great time there...enjoy so much...had dinner at BBQ plaza...nothing special..nothing great..catch up with the folks for movie later at nite...the movie was kinda dumb dumb la..but its okie la..something to entertain...

well 1st day of raya...early in the morning need to go for an emergency meeting...yawns..went home...got out again with a fren...went for exhibition...went to the mall..hang out til dinner time..back home accompany mom...

today...was procrastinating at my work...listening to Jazz,Opus,Nostalgia and Oldies channel on Astro...wow..i realise i've not been so relaxing for such a long time...i really like the feeling to be at home listening to some good music..i've found out that i've been so busy thesedays..i've missed out a lot of things...just wanna say sorry to u guys for not able to join the short trip...a fren told me that i've put on weight because of stress...is that true? stress makes me eat a lot? i wonder...

Should stop now...c ya

My mind is full of thoughts..full of memories..full of schedules... as u can see i always write things on my left hand..i can't remember things well..a gazillion of things queing up in my mind..which one comes first? which is the next?

Once i can't think of a solution..its always there..bothering me every single seconds..but lucky for me..there are PLENTY of work to do in the office..and that will takes away all my time...even my dinner time! Had cup noodles today..which i dun prefer it for dinner...drove past 10 different tolls to and from cheras..got home at 11++..great!

tired dou~

24 hours is just not enough!

Had a hectic week..its really really tiring..with all the meetings and more meetings..and heavy workloads...ouch..its killing me..

Doesn't have enough time for all my friends and family..sometimes i felt a lil guilty...and also i need a vacation badly..please..

i felt that i cant write any longer like my previous posts..might be my life is getting too peaceful without any ups and downs..do u think it is good to be like this? sleep,work,eat,drink...its all that i've been doin thesedays...as a result i've put on weight...consider this as a good thing??

Organising my company annual dinner cum trip by myself this time..cool eh? hehe..usual stuff for me as i've quite some experience on planning trips and dinner..location should be Malacca at the moment..im still doin some budgetting to get things done..wee..its goin to be october..time flies..and i hav shit hell lotsa stuff to do at work...and my stupid customer still doesn't want to pay up!

quotes of the day

"Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, it is the
realization of how much you already have."

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we
look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has
been opened for us.

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's
also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you
can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and
heartaches.
