Hong Kong Hot Pot | Bangsar Telawi Square

2017-08-30T03:12:00.001-07:00

Hello there! This round I'm bringing you guys to the Steamboat Paradise.

No doubt that I'm a super big fan of Steamboat and it's always been my all-time cravings!

I usually have steamboat in my area like COCO Old Klang Road, HOHO and HOMETOWN Sri Petaling.

So I was thinking to try out this Hong Kong Hot Pot when I passed by coincidentally during my visit to Bangsar, and I guess it's newly opened not long ago.

Guess what, I walked straight up to the restaurant and I was told by the staff that it was already FULL HOUSE!

Seeing the empty tables but with all the names on.

I was like WOW, the food must be damn good lol. Telling myself that I must pay a visit soon!

So here I am sharing with you all my first visit to this place! And this time I actually called for reservation before heading there *.^

The ambience here is really great and literally feels like having steamboat in Hong Kong

So as it was my first time here, looking on the menu was kind of strange ahah. Thanks to their lovely waitress there who suggested me some of their famous dishes here.

Okay Firstly, I have to give a round of applause to this!!

Imported Hong Kong Beancurd Roll @RM25

This is definitely the best beancurd roll I've had so far! Seriously guys, I'm not being exaggerated.

It's really different from other steamboat restaurants,

and just not the normal beancurd roll we usually have.

Maybe you have had it before in Hong Kong, but I have actually never been to any steamboat place in HK.

I kinda regretted it argh. Must eat next time when I get to travel there!

There are a few soup choices that you can select. And we ordered Mix soups.

Tomato Soup & Sakura Pork Bone Soup @RM30

I have to say the soups both taste absolutely good. I'm gonna try out the other choices next time! Probably pumpkin soup and spicy soup 麻辣 for my next visit *slurp*!

Mix your sauces with your preference, and get your sauce ready to be dipped with the delicious ingredients!

Sakura Premium Pork S@RM16.96

Moving on we have these,

Fresh Hand Made Prawn & HK Crab Egg Meat Ball

Each @RM11.66

What I love about their meatballs is that they're all freshly handmade!

So we get to enjoy the freshness of each meatball to the max.

The prawn itself is very fresh, and the crab egg balls are pleasant too.

Nothing much to say, I would like to try their mushroom pork balls and prawn dumpling next time maybe? ^.^

We ordered some vegetables too,

YAO MAK@RM8.48

NEEDLE MUSHROOM@RM8.48

And not to forget the YEE MEE@RM6.36

Thumbs up to their broth for tasting so good that it makes a very great compliment with your dish and the mee! Yumyum

Can you see my gluttonous face?! HAHA eating yummy food gives me that kind of unspeakable happiness.

Rating time

The overall experience dining here is fantastic!

And I would rate it at 9/10, where does the other 1 mark go?

It's about the price is slightly on the higher side. Total damaged is RM137 inclusive of Gst.

But the quality of the food truly worth the visit.

That's all for today. I'll be sharing a very fresh and distinct topic to you on my next blog!

Stay tuned kay♡ byes!

KL MUST-EAT KOREAN FOOD | PART 2

2017-08-13T01:06:00.000-07:00

Sup guys! Welcome back to my fav Korean food PART 2❤

The Best Korean cuisine I have in KL so far. - Seoul Korea at Taman Desa -

I'm so excited to share with all the food lovers as this place is my all-time Korean food restaurant during my high school years! And even now, I have to eat this at least once in every 1-2 months.

So I have been visiting this place for more than 7years. OMO time flies!

Eating here refreshes the good old memories that I had with my beloved friends, and definitely having the best Korean food in town.

Alright, let me bring you to the queue before introducing the incredible Korean cuisine~

It was 5.15pm and the restaurant opened at 5.45pm.

If you don't want a long queue like this, then try to make it on weekdays or arriving here early like me, and I'm sure it would be much better!

The traditional interior design is kind of warming.

We ordered the second pic on the left - Dae-Ji Yang-Nem...

Basically I have tried the third pic on the left before but I thought the meat was hard tho.

After a taste of the pork belly, I've been eating this for over the years then omg.

I know right, I should try other meat instead having the same every time lol but I just can't have enough of this! Seriously...

Pork belly with its spicy Home-made sauce.

RM30

Nothing much to say actually, just come and try it by yourself! You'll be amazed by all the food here.

And now, this is the Best Part!!

Their SIDE DISHES say it all. The combination of Asian fusion with the Korean recipe are incredibly Good!

It might seem simple but you know what, these side dishes are my fav after having so many Korean food in KL. And this is just unbeatable.

I love almost all of them, especially the salted seaweed and glass noodles! *slurp*

I refilled more than 3times on my last visit hehe..

Trust me, it makes you drool a lot eating them as a starter.

Complementing them with your rice and meat is just the idea!

Moving on, we had this Korean Soy Bean Soup.

For spicy lovers, go for their kimchi soup or the spicy version of this!

Roughly RM20

Also you will be given a ginger drink in the end to call it a delightful dinner!

Overall, this place has never disappointed me in terms of the food quality.

I would rate it at 9/10

Please let me know if you have ever had your best Korean Restaurant too!

I would love to try them out *chuckles*

That's all for today, and Thanks for reading!

I hope you really enjoy reading my blog and see you on my next blog.❤

Opening hours: 12pm-2pm | 5.30pm-10.30pm

FYI, it closes on every Monday and occational Tuesday.

So it's better to give a call to the owner before you visit them.

KL MUST-EAT KOREAN FOOD❤ Part 1

2017-07-28T01:48:00.001-07:00

Welcome to my second food blog post guys! Thank you for reading this anyway as I'm not sure if you guys are interested in food blog. But you know what, I just love eating more than putting on make up lol,

so I guess I should just get started with more food blogs*chuckles*.

No doubt that I'm a big fan of Korean food! And my usual cravings are always Steamboat and KOREAN food.

So I'm gonna share with y'all about my favorite spots of yummy Korean dishes in KL.

The TOP 2 goes to Gangnam88!

I actually prefer the branch at Solaris Dutamas and Sunway Giza cos I found the services and food there are way better to be compared with the branch at Setia Walk >.<

Maybe it was just not my lucky day ha. You can still try it out at any branches that is near you anyway!

The ambience is great till you feel like you're already in Seoul! It's best for a group of friends, so that you can order many dishes for sharing.

Let me start with their side dishes!

Variety of side dishes to complement with your rice or meat. and it's Refillable! *wink*

Okay let me start with this meat which is an awful one :(

Galbi Bbq small- RM33

If you have been here before then you must have seen this best selling sweet pork meat, and it was recommended by the server too!

My first bite felt like, why the hell was the meat so freaking hard

It was my first time trying this, I never had any bbq pork from my past visits.

And I was so disappointed as my last visit was super amazing,

that made me thought of blogging it for y'all.

Okay we should skip this and move to the other dish that taste like heaven~

Taaa-daaa! Its my favorite Hot pot soup BUDAE Jjigae. ❤

RM49- Small (Best for 2pax)

I just love the taste of the soup and everything in there! Of course the ones I had in Korea was far better than these in KL, but still the cravings are unstoppable haha. And I just realized that the cheese here was unnoticeable and barely tasted. lol maybe they didn't put much this time and I just got the strong unfavorable feeling about this Setia walk branch *.* (will never visit again)

In a nutshell, the overall experience was not up to expectation. So I decided to visit another day again at Solaris Dutamas Branch. This is the reason why this blog has been dragging me so long.

Here we are! Gangnam88 at Solaris Dutamas (Mont Kiara)

Spontaneous photo taken before going for the yummy food!

While waiting for the food......

Okay no more photos of myself haha the food just came yay

Introduce to y'all my fav kimchi pancake in town!

RM26.80- Best for 4pax

FYI, there is lunchtime menu which is slightly cheaper than the normal menu.

I have tried many pancakes out there at different Korean food places but this was just a bomb! They cooked it perfectly with the adequate amount of kimchi, and the texture of the pancake was super duper good. It's a must-try for the pancake lovers!

We ordered Samgyeop Bbq Pork Belly this time! (The original flavor)

Lunch menu- RM25

It tasted very juicy and soft! *slurp*

If you don't like this kind of texture, then I would suggest you to choose other parts like pork shoulder and etc.

Guess what, the food made my day!

And I was very satisfied with the food and I could finally continue blogging it.

So that's it for now, I hope you enjoy reading this, and somewhat it gives you an idea of choosing which Korean food place to dine in hehe...

And please stay tuned for the PART 2 Korean food post as I'll be sharing with y'all the best Korean food place I have been in KL so far. So see ya!❤

Melting Cheesecake@ The Tokyo Restaurant, The Table KL | BLVD House @Naza Tower KL Food Review

2017-07-02T00:08:00.001-07:00

Taadaa~ here goes my very first food blog yesh!

Greeting from the food lover to the food lovers *hi sweeties*.

So it was a Food Day on our anniversary date, just few days before then, I had been thinking to blog about the food we were going to have!

In this lovely evening, a spontaneous plan came up which we wanted to try out the famous Japanese cheesecake at The Table inside Isetan the Tokyo restaurant.

It was my idea because as y'll know girls love *sweet things* right? I have also been seeing people Insta-storying it, and obviously it had darn good ratings. I just coudn't wait to try it!

So this is the best cheesecake in town as the people have rated!

RM18 before Gst

Opps it was taken using boomerang hah... Sorry that I didn't take a nice photo of it as I was busy Insta-storying me and this lovely cake! And I just couldn't wait to put a bite into my mouth! *slurp*

Screenshot from the Boomerang hehe! Realizing that it wasn't a bad idea as I got two different expressions and making them into photos *LOL*

It's rating time!

Firstly, the cheesecake texture is so soft and creamy until it melts in your mouth.

And my first bite was amazing, then slowly became a little heavy to my appetite. Maybe I was thinking about the dinner we were going to have that night HAHA

Secondly, it would be great for sharing plate for 2-3ppl, then, order some drinks to complement it. So that you could refresh your taste bud and wouldn't feel so bored by the same heavy and creamy taste.

Lastly, I would rate it at 8/10 for such delightful cheesecake. Well, this is the typical Japanese style cheesecake unlike the western cheesecake with harder surface texture and then it'd slowly melt,

so make sure you can accept the creamy texture before trying this :D

So fast that it's dinner time!

This is our first dining experience here, and it's the popular "Front of the house" spot where taking photo is a must! So, we arrived here early at 6pm+, and it was just a perfect timing to capture some photos with good lighting.

I was amazed by its interior design, and the ambience here is just right for celebrations.

While waiting for the food to be served...

Here we started our yummy dinner!❤
So we ordered a Carbonara Fettuccine for myself and Chicken Burger for him *slurp*.

This pasta was just unexpectedly good with the combination of smoked ducks omg.

It's a must try for carbonara lovers!!

Moving on we have this huge chicken burger which they called it, Chicken Cordon Bleu Burger! It might seem like a small portion but believe me, it's so filling and totally fried with chicken breast covering those cheese and ham in it!

Look at the CHEEEEESE! Damn... What a mouthful bite.

After we finished our food, the first thought came into our minds was like *so gooooood*

The chef there even approached us asking if the food was good.

It felt like he had much confidence, and showed how professional he was.

Well, I have always been a pasta lover, so I preferred the pasta over the burger hah...

The burger tasted good at the first bite but after a few bites, I felt a little too heavy for me.

Maybe I should try out the other good food in the menu next time. :>

Oh ya not to forget about the drink. We just ordered one drink because we don't fancy for drinks outside normally. But we do order it occasionally haha! This Blueberry Mojito is a bomb. A very strong flavor of Blueberry with a little alcohol was just awesome! And together with soda, it's just

sweetness overload!

Good food with the best companion. What can I ask for more? ❤

I would rate it at 9/10 for the whole dining experience here!

Satisfaction overload seriously and we will be back anytime soon *thumbs up*.

Bentong Valley Agropark 2D1N

2017-06-28T03:35:00.001-07:00

Hello sweeties! ❤

I'm back and today I'm gonna share about my short getaway last Sunday at Valley Agropark.

I bet non of you reading this post have been to this place hah..

As I wouldn't want to visit this place if I had a choice of visiting a better place.

It was my bb's family trip so I just went along with them and had some gathering sessions. :D

And I believe that we just have to leave the busy city sometimes, away from the radiation and stay close to the nature!

Love the photos taken over there. Background surrounded by the nature! ❤

It was a sunny day and we were all feeling stuffy! So can you imagine how much I sweated while taking the photos and taping videos *argh*

But it's okay, because I feel damn good by looking at the photos I took right now.

And also the video I made YAY!

Alright here comes our couple shots! :>

Okay so, I should start talking about this place. There was only a restaurant, a bee farm and an accommodation that's it! You must be thinking what else to do for a whole day there right...

Firstly, we went to this bee farm where it sells honey stuff like honey oil, honey capsule and so on.

In the end, I just bought a small bottle of *forest honey* after I tried 3types of honey.

So sad that I didn't manage to buy a big bottle of this. Because I planned to buy it on the next day but we checked out too early and the farm wasn't opened yet.

I still can buy it in KL anyway so just forget about it! (:

Next, My overall experience visiting Valley Agropark!

#1 It was a little boring visiting here since it took us quite a long drive from KL. Also, there is nothing much to do besides eating and taking photos. So what we did most was gambling as we play cards on every gathering *chuckles*.

#2 The only restaurant for lunch and dinner. Well, the lunch experience we had was horrible! We made the order at 12.30pm and the food came at 3pm. I understand it was crowded but almost 3hours of waiting just doesn't make sense at all. But luckily we enjoyed the food as it tasted surprisingly good! *thank god*

#3 The room we chose was decent (Superior room), acceptable in its cleanliness. There's no way to avoid the tiny insects in your room as you're living in the nature! haha

In a nutshell, I would rate it at 4/10. I mean I kinda like the experiences staying over there but just not in my future to-go list.

Of course, If you're not far away from this place and you're looking for a location that is close to nature, and to chill and spend some quality time with your family. Then, this would be recommended!

A well spent holiday with my love and the family! ♡♡♡

I'm so happy that my second video is made! woohoo

Hope you enjoy watching it! See ya~

Full video ❤ Short getaway to Valley Agropark, Bentong!

My 9D8N Seoul Itinerary

2017-06-15T05:44:00.000-07:00

Hey guys! So this is my first blog post, *drum rolls*

I've always wanted to blog since a long time ago though and now finally I am so doing it.

So this post is gonna be talking about my trip to Seoul on the 4th - 12th of May.

Such a long holiday right!

And most of you might think 9days in Seoul!? Isn't it too long just to visit a city?

Actually I once thought of it too haha but trust me,
it is not considered long after I started planning my itinerary!

If you're a traveller like me, prefer chilling like no rush kind of trips

then you might find my blog helpful for your next coming trip! Hopefully! :D

In the beginning, I booked my homestay through Airbnb after having some conversation with the owner. I would definitely recommend this place to all of you!
The homestay is really cozy and clean.

To me, I'm very particular on the accommodation when I'm on vacation every time,

so I would try my best to find the most comfortable stay at a reasonable price.

I like how simple the deco is in the room, and finding the building was no hassle

(the owner is really helpful in directing us to the homestay)

Besides that, the location wise is good too! Just a 10-minute walk to Myeongdong
the shopping paradise

Or you can also walk to the Chungmuro station which is just 1minute walking distance from your stay,
then you can go wherever you want to go.
I really like how other countries with almost perfect infrastructure and especially the TRAINNNNNNNNNN which is super duper convenient!

Quite a number of people asked about my homestay in Seoul,

probably due to the nice interior that I posted in my insta-story.

So here’s the link for y'all

Isabelleshomestayinseoul

Don't forget to register yourself an Airbnb account using my code below!

www.airbnb.com/c/isabellek1692

Do contact the owner if you have any enquiry about the homestay, like me I asked a lot lol

Which floor is it? will it be noisy at night?

Glad that he’s a friendly guy who could speak English as well. so everything went smoothly throughout the stay!

Online advanced booking

I actually booked everything in advanced from Fantastic Korea,

1. Lotte World ticket
Buying ticket online is much cheaper than walking in to the counter, and also you can skip the queue.

2. Everland ticket with Shuttle Bus

You can choose the pickup location during the booking. Well, I think that we can reach there by train rather than sitting in a bus for about two hours which i felt really dizzy and uncomfortable :(

Also, we had to go back early & to be on time to wait for the shuttle bus in the early evening so its kind of rushing us. This is ideal for those who is really afraid of taking the train by the hassle finding the correct line & the transfer to different line. Otherwise, purchasing the Everland ticket is good enough :)

3. Nami Island & Petite France tickets with Shuttle Bus

It was a good experience traveling with the tour. An english speaking tour guide oppa is given too haha! Same thing you can choose your preferred location for pickup. Then everything will be arranged for you with no hassle either getting the tickets on a long queue or the transportation issue. Just prepare yourself getting into the bus in the morning, then enjoy the journey to the beautiful places.

4. Hanbok 1day experience at Bunchon Village

I am deeply in love with my chosen Hanbok! Actually there are Traditional hanbok and themed hanbok. The one I rented was themed hanbok with flowers and some gold color laces <3 so it depends on what type of hanbok you like, as there are various of designs for you to choose from, just make sure to be there early then you could have the chance to choose the best for yourself! FYI, they provide free hair service (styling) & some accessories too. Remember don't be shy to ask the staff about anything you want.

Photo shooting in the studio

This is not included in the handbook rental as it is another service that they provide.

You can enquire about it when you're there because there’re different types of shooting available,

the pricing from low to high. We chose a simple shooting which was just given a photo and it came with a wood block to place the photo. Now I have placed it on the table right beside my bed, it's kind of sweet seeing it every morning isn't it? hehe remembering the moments we had, it makes me smile looking at it every time (:

Rental period from 2hours, 4hours to 1day

I think that 4hours of renting is good enough unless you really like wearing it the whole day by visiting different historical spots. Because for me, I just wanted to have an experience wearing it, walking around the Bunchon Village and taking some nice photos. You can do it all in a good 4hours.

Below are the links of each booking:
Lotte World
Everland ticket with shuttle bus
Nami Island & Petite France
Hanbok Rental

Wookay that's about it for today. I hope you enjoy reading on my first blog post. *wink*

I'll be sharing about the journey of the trip in my next coming post. So see you soon! Byeee <3
