I have been busy catching up with friends and attending my farewell meet ups recently. Still have 7 more appointments to go before I leave KL for good. Rest assured, I will miss them loads.
Following from my last post on my last day at work, I went out for a movie with my brother and cousin after work and treated them with Japanese at Sushi Groove. Didn't take pictures this time round, do check out my previous review here.
The next day I declared myself as officially jobless, dragged myself out of the bed in the morning and headed to Isetan for retail therapy (yippee!). After a few rounds of card swiping sessions, I met timothy from 3meals.com for farewell lunch at Din Tai Fung. Thanks to tim for the treat and his precious time. I lost count on how many phone calls he picked up when having lunch :D Also didn't take pictures this time round, check out my previous review here.
Fast forward to dinner time, I met up with the floggers gang (wmw, jason, christine , chris and ekeng) for farewell food crawl at Jalan Alor.
First Stop: Restaurant Muar
We started off the crawl by having chendols and Nyonya food at Restaurant Muar. Check out my previous review here. Unfortunately we had to wait for 40 mins for the food to be served due to short of water supply in that area. Where did they get water from then? We dare not imagine further, at least we are still well and healthy the next day :p
Ekeng who pengsan-ed while waiting for the food to be served.
Luckily the food that was finally served made the long wait worthwhile. We had crispy fried egg drizzled with soya sauce (RM7), seafood beancurd (RM16) and butter kailan (RM10). This is one of the few places I would recommend for simple yet delish homecooked dishes.
RM1 chendol
Second Stop: Jalan Alor
Despite the short of water supply, we still made Jalan Alor our next stop for our food crawl.
We had grilled fish (RM15), grilled squid (RM15) and escargot-like shell fish (RM20). I enjoyed every bite of the lovely dishes.
Third Stop: Haagen Dazs
Yes, I suggested having desserts.
Yes, we walked all the way from Jalan Alor to Bukit Bintang for desserts.
Yes, I agreed stopping by Haagen Dazs for desserts.
Yes, I was the only one who didn't order any desserts.
Yes, I was the only one who didn't order any desserts.
I only remembered that I had my craving for ice-cream fixed at Gelatissimo that afternoon when I stepped into Haagen Dazs. Having decided not to exceed my daily allocated quota for desserts, I told the rest of the gang I'll only stick to plain water :p
Jason's flower blossom (RM29.90) - choose 6 ice-cream flavours of your choice served in a waffle bowl.
Christine's cookie crunch (RM22.90) - cookies & cream ice cream served with crushed cookies chocolate sauce and whipped cream.
Wmw's macadamia nut crunch (RM26.90) - soft baked cookies served with cookies & cream, cookies & chocolate and macadamia nut ice-creams.
Ekeng's sinful fix.
Ekeng's haagen dazs moment, with disturbing food paparazzi.
Christine & Chris' sweet moment.
Made me wanna share the same sweet moment too. Guess who was hiding behind the haagen dazs menu.
What a coincidence, Wmw and Chris actually wore the same Hard Rock Cafe t-shirt that nite! Now guess who is who :p
Everyone with satisfying smile (ehmm...except jason..releks lar!)
Last Stop
Gathering adjourned at around 1am, we stopped at BHP station to feed the car with fuel this time round and headed back home to get a few more hours sleep before we resume our food crawl the next morning with another group of floggers...to be continued...
