			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!--mfunc tagparser_cache::show_tag() --><!--/mfunc--><p>This very place which served the standard choices of noodles including Yee Mee, Kueh Teow, Bee Hoon and etc is one of the rare place that will still have lots of people around in its premises after lunch hours eg: 3PM.</p>
<p>One of the main reason this place is kinda &#8220;Famous&#8221; is because of its Pan Mee. Self made pan mee with a soup base which consist a decent numbers of ingredients is what i love most about this place.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/2010%20Others/pokemonpanmeenoodles.jpg" title=" Pokemon Noodles House Pan Mee" ></p>
<p>Those Pan Mee lovers out there would know how to differentiate the different types of Pan Mee be it hand made or factory made and this specific one is pretty good.</p>
<p><img title=" Pokemon Noodles House Pan Mee" src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/2010%20Others/pokemonnoodleshousepanmee.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The crispy anchovies with a fair amount of meat, mushroom and veggies made this simple bowl of Pan Mee a tad bit more awesome.</p>
<p>Oh and if you fancy spicy stuff, the &#8220;green sambal&#8221; is a great addition to the Pan Mee as well.</p>
<p>Check it out aite!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!--mfunc tagparser_cache::show_tag() --><!--/mfunc--><p>It was a last minute random lunch date with <a href="http://www.drewnity.com/">Andrew</a>. Yeh, the person who went MIA from time to time. I brought him to this place in KL which is pretty nearby to my office then. A place which <a href="http://spinzer.us">Chris Tock</a> introduced a few months back and i&#8217;ve only been here for like 2 times only. =D</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Ikan%20Bakar%20Jalan%20Bedara%20Bukit%20Bintang/IkanBakarJalanBedaraBukitBintang5.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>From Raja Chulan to Bukit Bintang, the area i&#8217;m working at is actually quite a food haven for the working group i think, but due to my habit of not frequenting lunch where i rather stay in office, i guessed i&#8217;ve missed out quite a lot of good food in the area.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Ikan%20Bakar%20Jalan%20Bedara%20Bukit%20Bintang/IkanBakarJalanBedaraBukitBintang1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>So as you can see in the picture above, this stall which is located just behind Istana Hotel at Jalan Bedara Bukit Bintang actually serves a variety of Malaysian food. but of course, my main intention to have lunch here is because of its Ikan Bakar.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Ikan%20Bakar%20Jalan%20Bedara%20Bukit%20Bintang/IkanBakarJalanBedaraBukitBintang2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Ikan%20Bakar%20Jalan%20Bedara%20Bukit%20Bintang/IkanBakarJalanBedaraBukitBintang3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Though not as famous as another nearby Ikan Bakar stall, the Ikan Bakar served here is awesome to me! Ikan Pari, Ikan Kembung, Ikan Keli are among the few Ikan Bakar you could choose from.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Ikan%20Bakar%20Jalan%20Bedara%20Bukit%20Bintang/IkanBakarJalanBedaraBukitBintang4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The thing special about the Ikan Bakar served here is the sauce/kuah they add on along on a separate plate with the fish. Have no idea do other stalls have a similar sauce as the one here but if you are around the area and you have no idea on what to have for lunch, you can try this stall out. =)</p>

<p>I can&#8217;t seem to find a stall name for this place so if anyone of you knows about it please do tell me!! About on the exact location, please refer to the red dot below LOL. Paiseh!</p>

<p>A last minute change in location to celebrate having Mother&#8217;s Day dinner just last Sunday happens to be one of the most satisfying dinner i had in recent weeks. Was suppose to head to De Foodland earlier but the place was packed like nobody&#8217;s business, and so me and my family headed to this place at Aman Puri, Kepong.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Usually, we don&#8217;t go out eat at the nearby food places and stick to the &#8220;Da Pao&#8221; culture thus making this the first visit to this awesome restaurant at Aman Puri. Well, it was my dad who was interested in the RM3 sharkfin soup that led to us changing venue last minute. LOL</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood3.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Shark fin soup in bowl (RM3) &#8211; 4.5/5 </strong></p>
<p>To start of with the food, the shark fin soup was awesome! I mean you would definitely take out the RM3 without hesitation and put on the table sipping every single drip there, you might even order more after the first bowl.</p>
<p>It comes in small portion, but hey RM3? What do you expect! Furthermore, they prepared it well with quite a fair portion of crab meat inside, its delicious and very satisfying!</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood4.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Cheese Crab (RM40 for 2kg) -4/5</strong></p>
<p>My family have these practice that whenever there&#8217;s a birthday/celebration and we were to out for dinner, crab is a must and so here it is, the main dish of the night, Cheese Crab!! The crab weren&#8217;t those big sized ones but the crab meat were especially juicy and most importantly, it&#8217;s fresh so you could imagine me eating like a small kid that night!</p>
<p>Too bad the sauce weren&#8217;t as &#8220;Cheesy&#8221; as i&#8217;ve wanted but it&#8217;s all good. Oh and it&#8217;s freaking cheap also Rm40 for 2kg! =D</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood5.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Man Tou/Bun (RM6 for 12) &#8211; 5/5</strong></p>
<p>Then again, the Man Tou that was ordered along for the sauce cooked with the crab makes it a perfect match! The Man Tou were made to perfection and it smells so good, it is crispy on the outside and when i took my first bite, it was indescribable!</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood6.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Fried Yau Mak (RM15) &#8211; 3.5/5</strong></p>
<p>A pretty common dish nowadays. Nothing much to describe about then, it&#8217;s up to standard but one thing i don&#8217;t get it, don&#8217;t know why they put Chili Padi in it where i don&#8217;t fancy it. The portion is quite big.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Curry Prawn in Coconut (RM26) &#8211; 4/5</strong></p>
<p>This is another sinful dish. With the fragrantly spiced curry, the prawns were cooked till so soft and the mixed vegetables that came along in curry sauce really did spice up my appetite. Ordered a second bowl of rice after this LOL.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood8.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Fried Yam Ring with Assorted Vegetables (RM13) &#8211; 3/5</strong></p>
<p>On the other hand, this fried Yam Ring wasn&#8217;t up to my expectation. It wasn&#8217;t that crispy to my liking and the assorted vegetables taste a bit out. Perhaps a less skillful chef prepared this then.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/Restoran%20Tak%20Fok%20Hong%20Kong%20Seafood/RestoranTakFokHongKongSeafood9.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<strong>Marmite Pork Ribs (RM22) &#8211; 5/5</strong></p>
<p>Last but not least, this Marmite Pork Ribs was the bomb of the night. Turning out unexpectedly delicious. I tell you, Pork Ribs is one of the most awesome food you can get in the world and this one specific dish that i had, the meat was juicy and easy to chew/bite. Thumbs Up!</p>
<p>Then, no more already lah!!! There&#8217;s quite a lot of food ordered above already okay! LOL</p>
<p>The bill came up to RM161.50 including the drinks and bowls of rice which i would say it&#8217;s a pretty reasonable price out there in times like this. If you happen to be around Kepong, then you should really go to this place and try the food out!</p>
<p>Am glad that my mom was smiling that night. =)</p>

<p>We went to The Queen And Mangosteen at Vivocity, Singapore. A pretty pleasant and comfy place.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was her birthday actually and i called Steph and Mike out for a simple lunch</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity2.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Tiffanie and Steph</p>
<p>Prolly something too simple for a birthday lunch but i&#8217;m not THAT rich that i could splash loads of money with the currency being converted SGD so&#8230; Yea&#8230; =(</p>
<p>Anyways, there&#8217;s this 3 course meal for SGD38 and if you top up another SGD7, you get a half pint of their Archipelago beers.</p>
<p>So Me, Mike and Steph ordered the the set where both me and Mike added the SGD7 for the beers. Tiffanie</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity3.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Salmon Salad &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity4.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Mushroom Soup &#8211; 2.5/5</p>
<p>To be frank, for such a place that had me having good impression when i first step in, the starters above disappoints me where it&#8217;s just normal. Nothing to wow about.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity5.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Roasted Angus Rib-eye of Beef &#8211; 4/5</p>
<p>Good thing that when the main course came, i did enjoyed it. The rib-eye was medium cooked and it was soft &amp; easy to bite, with the texture of beef to my liking, the plate was served in just the right portion.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Roasted Spring Chicken &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p>On the other hand, Mike&#8217;s Roasted Chicken seems to be quite a disappointment for him. It was too small a portion for a lunch meal and for someone who is bigger in size than me, i&#8217;m pretty sure he didn&#8217;t get enough that meal. However, according to <a href="http://mikeyip.com/the-queen-mangosteen/">Mike</a>, the chicken was quite okay.</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity6.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Roasted Rack of Lamb with Rosemary Potatoes, Grilled Asparagus and Mint Yoghurt (SGD29) &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p>Last but not least, the Lamb Rack that Tiffanie ordered was pretty filling and it was well prepared. I only had a few bites but i think it was delicious and most importantly, she liked it pretty much, so i assume that this dish is worth ordering!</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity8.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The 3 Course Meal comes with this sinful dessert above, do i need to describe more? =D</p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity9.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy41/joshuaongyscom/The%20Queen%20And%20Mangosteen%20Vivocity/thequeenandmangosteenvivocity10.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Alright so, it was quite a good lunch session actually and i really owe both Mike and Steph a lot as for some unknown reasons, there was a big wide smile hanging on Tiffanie&#8217;s face that afternoon after the lunch.</p>
<p>Perhaps it&#8217;s because that Mike &amp; Steph offered to pay the bill but i still think that there&#8217;s something that made Tiffanie happier than usual. =D</p>

<p>but being a useless bf myself and not having a complete plan that is, i actually panicked and was scratching my head thinking of what to do, where to bring and such. Headache much.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Ended up at Paragon, went to this place Soup Restaurant which the gf decided so then. Just because she went to another branch and said that the food was delicious so we went to this place for dinner.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Okay so it was quite a nice and comfy place, but hey for a birthday for someone special i somehow felt bad about this then. Needing to stand in a line to wait to be brought into the place for dinner double that feeling there and then.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon6.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The Food hmmm.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Hand Chopped Minced Pork Meat with Salty Egg &#8211; 2/5</p>
<p>Looks nice on the menu with simple straight forward description but when it came and i had my first try on it i was a bit tad disappointed. The pork weren&#8217;t really well cooked and it was salty, a bit too salty that is.</p>
<p>Not a good start huh?</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon8.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Kangkung Sambal Belacan &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p>Ordering this pretty ordinary dish that is widely available back in Malaysia makes me comparing it straight away when it came. To my surprise, it was at least above average. The Sambal Belacan wasn&#8217;t too spicy but overall the dish is a bit too oily.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon9.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Claypot Tofu -4/5</p>
<p>This is one awesome dish which makes me nom nom nom all the way. Of course, when it came i was a bit surprise because from my knowledge, claypot tofu normally consists of a few types of vegetables along with the Tofu itself. But this alone its just the Tofu.</p>
<p>The specially made sauce which was added on the Tofu made the dish awesomely delicious but if you&#8217;re pretty particular about oily food, then you might not want to order this then.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon10.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Ling Zhi Lean Pork Soup &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p>This soup is pretty fine to me. Just a bit too sweet and the pork meat are not edible (Too Hard to Chew).</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon11.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Soup of the Day &#8211; Chicken soup with Corn &#8211; 3/5</p>
<p>This soup is just normal. There&#8217;s corn and there&#8217;s chicken and it taste just right. Ok i&#8217;m pretty lazy at describing about it already then.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon12.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>For all you know, at this time of me typing out all this, i&#8217;m already having this very guilt in me for not having a perfect birthday dinner plan for the gf which i was hoping to have for her. Furthermore, the food served at this very place doesn&#8217;t have any wow points to be told as well.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m such a lousy guy right?</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/SoupRestaurantParagon.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>but i did enjoyed my time being with her then. =X<br />

<p>Yeah last year only i have the chance to visit the stall where its already in business for quite long already, more than 10 years if i&#8217;m not mistaken!!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/sanpengnasilemak.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>So if was after Zee Avi&#8217;s concert that me and <a href="http://backtothisworld.blogspot.com/">Ren</a> headed to this very place with <a href="http://jenkinyat.com">Yat</a> joining us 20 minutes later. For the love of supper!</p>
<p>This stall is actually unique as it serves Nasi Lemak, Chinese Style. Oh how i love being in Malaysia with such awesome food. Apart from the usual Nasi Lemak rice which is cooked with coconut milk, Sambal, Egg, Sliced Cucumbers, Nuts and Ikan Bilis there were other varieties that totally made us food hunters spoilt for choice.</p>
<p>Curry Chicken, Curry Potatoes, Sausages, Fried Luncheon Meat, Fried Long Beans, Stewed Pork Innards, Sambal Sotongs, Sambal Kerangs were among the many there for your liking!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/sanpengnasilemak1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>I personally had a basic plate of Nasi Lemak adding on Long Beans with Curry Potato, Fried Egg and Luncheon Meat that sums up to RM5.10 that night.</p>
<p>It is a very sinful supper i must say with the rice well cooked along with the Sambal that was purrrffeecctt!! Ask around your friends about this very stall and if they have been there before i&#8217;m sure they&#8217;ll agree with me that this Chinese Version of Nasi Lemak is one of the best that you can find in Kuala Lumpur.</p>
<p>Will definitely visit it again!</p>
<p><strong>San Peng Nasi Lemak</strong><br />
Off Jalan San Peng, opposite the San Peng flats.<br />
Opening hours: 9.45pm – 2.30am (closed on Sundays)

Its the second month of the decade already and all i can say is i&#8217;m really enjoying my life thus far thanks to the great friends around with lame stuffs happening and etc.</p>
<p>Anyways, i shall talk about breakfast today, an awesome one!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was an unusual morning Saturday for me on the 23rd of January 2010. Waking up early in the morning to play basketball is what i&#8217;ve been missing for at least 5 months. Then again, going for a food review is what i&#8217;ve not done in ages already.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Not like i get tons of invitation for food reviews in the past anyways, i went to Jarrod and Rawlins, the branch at Damansara Heights to get some awesome English breakfast for myself. Upon entering the premise, i find myself being at a very comfy place which i would really make it my home then where this simple and nicely decorated place had me wondering if i could get one house that is exactly like this in the future.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset8.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>They even have this wonderful little garden!!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>and so i find myself being among a small group of people who consist of <a href="http://yapthomas.com">ThomasYap the Datuk</a>, <a href="http://spinzer.us">Tock the Mr Everywhere</a>, Elaine with her sister and hardcore foodies &#8211; <a href="http://kampungboycitygal.com/">the KampungBoy and City Gal</a>!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset5.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Cut the sizzling conversations and story telling part full of gossips, this is the English breakfast we had!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset6.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset7.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The Breakfast sets that we had were from these 3 below :</p>
<p><strong>J&amp;R Fried Breakfast -</strong> Two Organic Eggs Sunny Side up, with Sausage, Bacon, Grilled Tomato, Hash Brown, Toast or Fried Bread Served with Coffee or Tea &amp; Orange Juice &#8211; RM28</p>
<p><strong>J&amp;R&#8217;s Special.</strong> &#8220;The Full Works&#8221; J&amp;R Fried Breakfast with Extra Sausage, Extra Bacon, Mushrooms, Heinz Baked Beans. &#8211; RM34</p>
<p>Scrambled Organic Eggs with Smoked Salmon, Two slices of toast or fried bread served with Coffee or Tea &amp; Orange Juice &#8211; RM22</p>
<p>It was that breakfast that i missed dearly where i could have bacon plus scrambled eggs with baked beans and mushrooms. With a glass of fresh milk/orange juice. Ahh life!</p>
<p>How does it taste like? Err English? Hahaha it was great of course, very very classic set of breakfast i must say, it was all fine and well cooked to perfection and the best thing of all is that they prepared the pork themselves which is of best quality!! The smoked salmon one is new to me though. =D</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset9.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Bloody Mary anyone? At &#8220;just&#8221; RM25. Hehehe.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset10.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/jarrodandrawlinsbreakfastset11.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>So it was an affair of bread with tea or coffee that specific morning where we spent hours exchanging quite a lot of information. Most of it is about the evil plans between Thomas and Tock on how are they taking over the world by blizzard.</p>
<p>Thanks to Elaine for the wonderful session, i&#8217;m 10 steps back from my diet plan then. =D</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!--mfunc tagparser_cache::show_tag() --><!--/mfunc--><p>Craft Brews, one of the latest restaurant in town that is unique all because they have already step into the online social media scene way before the venue was officially launch!</p>
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/craftbrews">Following people on Twitter</a> and having a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/CraftBrews">Facebook account</a> bringing out the curious cat was one smart approach i must say as most F&amp;B outlets around don&#8217;t even give a damn about online social media and the power of internet marketing/advertising.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Anyways, we had a small gathering session just last Friday night where bloggers and tweeples were invited to fellowship and perhaps get to know each other over beers and food!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>One of which i&#8217;ve not been to for quite some time already. The place was pretty warm and cosy, one of the type of venues which i would definitely ask some close friends to chill around, perhaps some private sessions.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Just look at the colors of the beers available at Craft Brews!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>These beers were being said to be unfiltered where the beer menu features top-notch craft beers which are unique and rare. Specially catered for those beer tasters who seeks for quality in beer drinking. Quite sophisticated eh?</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession5.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The food served that night was pretty awesome and its definitely not good starting my 2010 that have me going down the FATTER way, but the ribs played quite a big role tempting me as i fell for it. I thought that the eggplant was good as well!</p>
<p>Anyways Craft Brews served food from Ribs to Lamb Shank to the common Chicken plates. Pastas, burgers and sandwiches were included in their menus as well.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession8.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession9.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Had a lecture on beers with some brief history and ways to beer tasting and such. Pretty clueless from the start till the end and couldn&#8217;t help to noticed some other wandering souls there as well. Aha!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession6.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession7.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>There were some game session after that giving out vouchers and colorful bottles which i didn&#8217;t get to play because i&#8217;m bad at differentiating the different kinds of beer. =(</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession10.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Anyways, meet the best beer of Craft Brews, the Monster Green Lager. You have to try it yourself to find out why Craft Brews claimed that as their best beer. Which is available all year round!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession11.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Well if you&#8217;re around the area then do give this place a tr, with good companies i&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll enjoy it pretty much!</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/craftbrewsbloggerssession12.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>and oh don&#8217;t forget the colorful beers!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!--mfunc tagparser_cache::show_tag() --><!--/mfunc--><p>11 December 2009. Part of the winning trip to Manchester.</p>
<p>My second night there, went to this Italian Restaurant, Rosso Restaurant &amp; Bar with <a href="http://backtothisworld.blogspot.com">Ren</a>, Coco, and Jimmy.</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The owner of this place is one of the richest soccer defender in the world, playing for Manchester United and yes he is none other than Rio Ferdinand. Rosso, a restaurant and bar is just one of Rio&#8217;s many ventures along the years and this place just started serving the public a few months ago.</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Located in one of the oldest buildings in Manchester, this place can serve up to 150 people max. and they even have a bar that lets people chill around for social meets and etc.</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The interior was pretty awesome and i&#8217;m pretty sure it&#8217;s one of the best restaurant around in Manchester(though i have not fully go to every 1 of them yet =X) as the atmosphere was great. Even the toilet was smartly located in some secret location!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Anyways, upon reaching the place, our host for that night Gordan told us that we could order anything as Manchester United/Smirnoff will take care of the bill, we were pretty excited then that we could try any food on the menu!!</p>
<p>The problem is, i have no idea what was written on the menu, i mean the food title, it was all in Italian. Yes i know a few language but Italian is not in the list, thanks for the description given there as well as some recommendation by the guy serving us, we made our orders, in like 30 minutes time!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant5.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Had my Mojito. &lt;3</p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty noob in eating such good food and so my explanation will be quite straight forward with stupid description okay? Straight to the food!</p>
<p>Starters.<br />
<img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant6.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Insalata Di Anatra Al Miele ( £ 6.75) &#8211; 4.5/5<br />
Strips of Confit of Duck with Mixed Salad Leaves, Honey &amp; Pickled Ginger Dressing with Toasted Sesame Seeds </em></p>
<p>The night started with a blast with this. The Duck Confit was delicious and when i had it with the mixed salad leaves with the dressing mentioned, it was like i was in heaven already then. Wonder how it taste like then in Italian restaurants here in Malaysia.</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Carpaccio Di Manzo (£7.95) &#8211; 4/5<br />
Thinly sliced prime, Raw Beef (Hung for 28 Days) dressed with organic rocket, aged parmesan shavings and lemon olive oil.</em></p>
<p>This on the other hand was wonderful! The cheese along with the extremely sliced primed raw beef with the leaves is just, i really can&#8217;t believe i was in Manchester then, having such food that i wouldn&#8217;t really dare to order back in Malaysia then.</p>
<p>and it&#8217;s only the starters!</p>
<p>Main. Basically we ordered 4 main course meals and shared among ourselves and this is the first one.<br />
<img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant8.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Vitello Milanese (£13.95) &#8211; 3.5/5<br />
Traditional Veal Escalope Coated in Breadcrumbs, Served with Spaghetti Napoletana </em></p>
<p>No offense to those who love veal, but this &#8220;boneless meat of a young calf&#8221; wasn&#8217;t really what i loved throughout the night but the Spaghetti was just right as how i like it, the taste i meant. I don&#8217;t know is it because of the starters or the other food that i had in my mouth that made the taste go a bit different, but i assume that it is an awesome dish because the others liked it. I think i will like it if it&#8217;s not coated in breadcrumbs, just the Veal Escalope Yums!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant9.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Pizza Quattro Stagioni (£8.50) &#8211; 3/5<br />
Tomato, Mozzarella, Artichoke Hearts, Peppers, Ham &amp; Mushrooms.</em></p>
<p>This one pizza was served with 4 different styles on each quarter. I like the ones with Ham &amp; Mushrooms as well as the Mozzarella. It was the kind of pizza i loved where the bread was not thick as i hate pizzas with thick bread that makes it so Yuck. Oh and the crust were crispy!!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant10.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Stinco D&#8217;Agnello (£13.50) &#8211; 4.5/5<br />
Pot Roast Lamb Shank Slowly Cooked in Amarone Wine with Root Vegetables on a Bed of Mashed Potato with Cheese &amp; Topped with Parsnip Crisps. </em></p>
<p>LAMB SHANK! MY &lt;3! I loved this one dish so much that i ate most from it. The lamb shank were slowly cooked till perfection and i suppose the wine did the job to bring out the taste, then again the mashed potato was sinfully delicious! I already miss this one then.</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant11.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Risotto Allo Scoglio (£12.15) &#8211; 4/5<br />
Carnaroli Rice, Fresh Black Mussels, Monk Fish &amp; Scottish Langoustine Cooked Gently in Langoustine Stock. </em></p>
<p>Another new dish i haven try before. Was a bit excited when i saw it coming being served on the table and i quickly get some of it on my plate and loved it instantly! Coco and Jimmy weren&#8217;t really a fan of this and i came to the rescue getting all the Mussels i sighted along with the deliciously cooked Carnaroli Rice! Best!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant12.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Had some dessert wine to mark the perfect meal of the night! All thanks to the awesome VIP hospitality by Manchester United/Smirnoff that we were able to order anything that we like then with the bill taken care of, it was some kinda experience that don&#8217;t often come my way. At least for me it is and i was really happy at the end of the night!</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant14.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<a href="http://backtothisworld.blogspot.com/">Ren</a>, Me, Coco and Jimmy</p>
<p><img src="http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab181/joshuaongys2/RossoManchesterRioRestaurant13.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The place was fully packed with the people in Manchester. Good company, great atmosphere, beautiful interior decorations, wonderful hospitality and awesome food! Will definitely visit this place again if i have the chance to go to Manchester again!</p>

<p>11 December 2009. It was the second day in Manchester. At the home ground of Manchester United, after the Old Trafford Stadium Tour and Museum Tour where we were brought to this cafe in the stadium itself to have our lunch.</p>
<p>We &#8211; The winners of <a href="http://www.thespiritofchampions.com/">TheSpiritOfChampions</a> contest. 2 from Malaysia, 2 from Hong Kong. =)</p>

<p>The Red Cafe! Upon entering the place, we were welcomed with lots of devils here and there on the logo of Manchester United Football Club.</p>

<p>Of course, Christmas is just around the corner and they had a Christmas Tree there as well just right when we walked in.</p>

<p>Decorated with posters, pictures all around the places, you will see red everywhere where the chairs actually have the names of Manchester United players. Prefer number 7? Grab a number 7 seat then! Quite a simple concept but i guess the brand name of Manchester United is more than enough to attract the visitors to eat there.</p>
<p>Quite a different atmosphere having meals there.</p>

<p>The Red Cafe of Old Trafford serves Western food where drinks, they have beers to liquors to cocktails, juices and etc.</p>

<a href="http://backtothisworld.blogspot.com">Ren</a> whom i brought along in this trip with his beer.</p>
<p>Everyone were pretty hungry so i didn&#8217;t really snap any pictures of what they ordered and such. Just my orders that&#8217;s all.</p>
<p>I ordered a pint of Fanta (£2.80) which is a combination of Lemonade + Orange Juice. Quite a common drink in UK i suppose. Didn&#8217;t take picture of that though.</p>
<p>As for food i had&#8230;</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/redcafeoldtraffordmanchester7.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Texas Combo (£11.50) &#8211; 4.5/5<br />
Juicy baby back ribs and tender chicken wings coated in special barbeque sauce served with crispy onion rings, coleslaw and potato skins.</em></p>
<p>Know what? It was big in portion, and this Texas Combo was exactly like how it was described in the menu. The baby back ribs were really juicy and the chicken wings meat were tender and it was awesomely delicious with the special barbeque sauce. The onion rings, coleslaw and potato skins, i was too full to focus on those then, but i&#8217;m sure they are pretty fine.</p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/redcafeoldtraffordmanchester8.jpg" alt="" /><br />
<em>Cheese Nachos (£4.00) &#8211; 4/5<br />
Crunchy Tortillas topped with spicy jalapenos and cheese served with sour cream, guacamole and pico de gallo</em></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know how to describe this, but i must say that the Cheese Nachos that we have in Western/Italian restaurant here in Malaysia is different with the ones in UK. Somehow it is nicer over there. Don&#8217;t know how to put it to words. Just Nicer!</p>

<p>Looking at the price stated on the menu comparing to price of the food in Manchester City itself, yes it was quite pricey but then again, it is Red Cafe at Old Trafford, i would pay and eat there if i were to visit the place again. Not everyday i will go there right? Furthermore, the food were awesome!!<br />
<em>*of course, we didn&#8217;t pay a single cent. =X</em></p>
<p><img src="http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af106/joshuaongys1/redcafeoldtraffordmanchester9.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>An awesome place especially for Manchester United fans, i would really love to visit this place again and try out other food then. Yum Yum!</p>
