Petite Millie, 1 Utama

We've passed by the restaurant many, many times but this is the first time, we actually thought of trying it. Before I begin, I beg for your forgiveness as I might not remember exactly what I ate and how much. In fact, the total bill for me and my mom was 100+MYR. 

This was our Sliced Roast Chicken Tarte Flambee. I love the unique-ness of this dish, the base is crispy thin and the chicken slices were smoked and it makes a light, refreshing dish as a starter. 

As a main, we had Salmon on a bed of crabs but I highly doubt it was crabs, honestly didn't taste crabby at all. But I enjoyed my salmon. I might be biased because I just love salmon. 

For dessert, we had the warm and cold Dino's Granny Smith Apple Crumble which was heavenly and decadent. It's cinnamon-y and the apples are just tender and sweet. Overall, I think this is the best version of an apple crumble.

Dave's, 1 Utama

I've been coming to Dave's since I was 17 where I discovered that alcohol and friends really do solve all your problems. You can read all about my "endeavors" HERE and HERE. The first link rarely made any sense because I wrote it when I was drunk. I was drunk most of the time from 2005-2010. 

Well, you know you're a regular customer when you have the waiter on your Facebook. 

The best pasta in the world. Period. I've tried pasta in many places such as Sydney, Thailand, Korea and Vietnam but no pasta can compare to the pasta at Dave's. The Fiance would only eat pasta at Dave's and no where else. Nothing compares to the pasta at Dave's. The Fiance cooks really well and his "Chinaman" mentality of not paying when you can cook it by yourself. 

Anyways, I've tried all sorts of pasta here but I still like the creamy ham and mushroom fettucine. For those people who hates paying full price, you can order the pasta at 50% off weekdays 12-3PM. 

This year or last, I can't remember but this is an award winning sandwich and my favourite sandwich of all time. It's something so unique and surprising and I crave for it every other day. No wonder it won an award. But it's not on the menu. I normally just tell the waiters that I want the special sandwich. I don't even know the price of the sandwich. 

Another firm favourite of ours is the seafood bisque (24MYR). It's got heaps of fish, calamari, mussels  clams and prawns! It's so creamy and such a comfort food. 

You can find out more about Dave's HERE on Facebook!

Colourful Food: Rainbow Cake & Tropical Paradise

This pretty little slice of heaven is from Bijoux, 1 Utama and I can tell you that i love Rainbow cakes because it's just too colorful and it makes me so darn happy with all their pretty, pretty colors!!! Too bad that it's just a simple, buttercream cake with lots of colouring. I bought this last slice for photography purposes. Pretty, no? 

This absolutely pretty drink is from Asia Cafe where the bottom layer is Dragon Fruit, The middle layer is Mango and the top is Longan. Word of caution: DO NOT mix the colours when drinking... It ruins the taste. You drink it layer by layer. Cool, no? Not sure if other Asia Cafe has this but I had this at Asia Cafe, Puchong.

I love Cupcakes and the cupcake I like is from Wondermilk and I like colorful food this week and there's something about the butter cream that is so addictive.

Watami, 1 Utama

Wafu Pizza- was thin crust and moderately delicious. I still love Pasta Zanmai's pizza with scallops!!! This was just Teriyaki Chicken.
Ebi Tempura- Very delicious... I love this dish and unlike some tempura, this is not soggy at all...
Kushi Moriawase- It was nice, it was more like Teriyaki Chicken and beef but they substituted the beef with chicken...
Tokujo Iradori- I didn't eat this because even if i love sushi, i hate fish and raw sushi... But, according to Yan, it was delish!
Okonomi Satsuma- I love this version of a Tako Tao, only it's flat and round and over dosed with the Katsuobushi (Bonito flakes)

Tried Watami, Japanese Casual Dining at 1 Utama over the weekend. I loved the food there because they have so much variety but, the portions are small so, I was even more hungry before I ate.

The food was good, service was good and no complains. Just OK, will go there again to try their rice dishes. Too bad that they were out of beef on a weekend, lunch... Not that I eat beef but my mom and Yan wanted to have beef dishes.

The food was delicious and the pricing was just OK compared to the Japanese restaurants at Tokyo Street in Pavillion.

Putien, One Utama

Appetizer was the delicious, creamy Century Eggs. My BF doesn't even knows how much I love Century Eggs!!! I know it's a food right outta Bizarre Foods that Andrew Zimmern hosts. I have to say that it's an acquired taste and it's damn unhealthy!!!

The next appetizer is this Shredded Meat with Bun. The minute you bite into it, the juice and the tender meat explodes with the slightly sweet and salty taste of the bun and it's like the 4th of July in your mouth!!! This was by fas, our favorite dish of the day!

Madre's Sweet Potato Glass noodle. The were quite generous with the prawns, clams and veggies but I somehow, do not really like the texture of the noodle. It's springy and I almost choked on it 2-3 times! This dish is very "cheng" meaning that it's healthy. Clear, flavorful broth and not fried. It's delicious though, I just did not like the noodles.

I ordered the Seafood Fried Rice and this was the most disappointing dish. We had compared it to Din Tai Fung's Seafood Fried Rice which was heavenly and this one was well, oily and very little prawns, eggs, etc and the rice wasn't even fluffy. Another good fried rice rule is that, the rice has got to be fluffy.

This was Yan Yan's Rice Cake, I loved this dish. This dish tastes almost similar to Madre's Sweet Potato Glass noodle. Except that they used Rice Cakes, thinly sliced instead. I much preferred this dish over my fried rice. Same light, flavorful broth and generous with the prawns and clams.

 I don't like pork organs but this intestines we're the bomb. It's chewy texture, soft and aromatic, it's delicious!!! MUST HAVE!!!

This was horrible because it supposed to be crunchy but it was too hard instead. 

This was quite nice, it's like the soupy version of veggies in clear, broth soup with century eggs and the broth was very flavourful. 

The dessert was Yam Paste which Yan Yan and Madre COULD NOT resist despite complaining excessively that they were full... I don't really like Yam Paste so, I didn't try it but the verdict was, it was delicious!!!

You must be wondering about this awkward post, well, i decided to combine my cooking blog into a full fledged food blog! I'm still me and I love food and I still hate cooking but, I'm trying my best. Believe it or not, I'm cooking more because of this blog, I hate inactive blogs so, I have to force myself to cook in order to keep it updated, constantly.

My cooking skills has improved tremendously according to The BF and I'm slowly but surly beginning to get the hang of it. I now know, what works and what don't. So, when I'm not cooking or baking, I'll be out eating.

Putien is a lovely place and it's reputation exceeds them. Was excited when they open a franchise in 1 Utama. This is a great place for healthy, Chinese food with a wide range of selection. Price wise, it's OK for Chinese casual dining. The total bill was 120MYR.

The serving sizes are huge so, do bear that in mind. All the dishes above was considered SMALL.
