I had a pleasant experience. :)

My sister, Amy took time to read through foodblogs around Malaysia.

The next thing I knew, she invited one on Maria's behalf.

He's Voon Keong, also known as VK.

He dropped by with his girlfriend. I would say, he's a rather quiet and humble guy, and yes, has a lovely girlfriend.

I quickly usher them to their seats and served them course by course. I love the way he carefully takes the pictures over and over again. A rather detail guy, probably a perfectionist in his pics. Or maybe, most foodbloggers are like that.

Finally, the review is up. :) It's beautifully written, took my breath way. He is very careful with the way he writes, and actually did his share of research. That comforts me a lot & impress me as well. Probably knows the food better than myself!

So, please feel free to view the review of Maria's Restaurant.Cafe at this link.

Of course, you can go through his food & tourism blog. A promising food guide!

Red Wine Chicken@Creamy Fettuccinne

2008-11-12T20:00:00.006+09:00

More updates.
The other day, Alicia (my youngest sis) and I dropped by the cafe after church.

I had Red Wine Chicken Chop.

He he.. The pic's messy, I know. I forgot to take a pic earlier, so had already taken bites of the chicken. As you can see, at the sides are fresh vegetables and mushrooms. Yum. I like mushrooms.

This is part of our lunch set menu. Only RM15 per set, comes with Soft Drink & Dessert. The lunch set menu changes every few weeks.

My sis opted for Creamy Fettucinne with Turkey Ham instead.

As you can see, it's served with vegetables, turkey ham and even mushrooms. Topped with a special creamy sauce. Only RM18.

Latte art

2008-10-24T15:40:00.004+09:00

*Beam*

Heard of latte art?
One of my regulars keep challenging me to work on it.
Here are some of my work. *smile*

Can you see it? It's a heart shape with a cross in it. :) Pretty, huh? I got that by luck. :P

And this one, I drew one of my customers. Cute, eh?

You want one too? Wei, I don't promise that you can get this from Maria's Outlet. You can get this personally from me. *uh hum* Yes, only me. (Fingers cross)

Latte art is really a skill. Takes lots & lots of practice. I may not get it right at times.

It's an expensive hobby too. My coffee machine is a down payment of a car. The coffee machine in Ipoh, is the price of a Kancil. Crazy, huh?

Aus Chilled Rib Eye @ Fresh Pumpkin Soup

2008-10-12T22:05:00.002+09:00

Hiyee all,
Gosh, it has been months since I update my foodblog!Sigh. Busyness of an unefficient manager. Shame on me. :P

Lots to update, but I'll start with some personal pics. Cause the ones i posted were profesional (assumed to be exagerated). So here are some from my digital.

The other day, I ate an Australian Chilled Rib Eye.

Like the pic? Hmm.. I think that was medium. :) It's good. A lot better than most steaks around. It's currently RM45 in the menu. Weight about 180gm.

Of course, if money is not your problem, I would recommend our premium steaks: Chilled Black Angus or the Wagyu any time! Way way way big difference in quality, and for the price, probably one of the best quality in flavor, cooking etc. you can ever get in Malaysia (hmm.. according to the feed back of my regulars). The Angus is RM40/100gm, and the Wagyu Grade 7 ( if you didn't know, Wagyu goes by grade) is RM95/100gm. Yummy? Definitely! No regrets.

And what other pics do I have?

That's the fresh pumpkin soup. When I say Fresh, I mean it. My uncle goes to the market early in the morning, and choose the best orange pumpkin he can get. It's yummy yummy, thick & rich. Some croutons on top.

Also at the side, I ordered a basket of garlic bread. To me, it's the best I've ever tried. Serious!

The soups is RM7.50 and garlic bread is RM5 a basket. Good for a snack. Good for a quick bite.

I wish I can continue.. but time is running out, and I gotta close shop soon. It's 10pm. Got some paper work to do as well. Yes la, all the errands for mummy.

Bye bye. Cross fingers that I'll find time for the next post!
