Bro's 16th Birthday

Yesterday was my evil cute brother's 16th birthday.
We spent quite some time thinking of where to celebrate his birthday.
I wanted to try the El Cerdo , but my dad said it's Sunday, Bkt Bintang would have traffic jam.
so, our final decision was -Alexis.
which, located in Bangsar and also The Gardens.
Of coz', we went to the The Gardens's outlet.

This was not our first time to eat in Alexis.
But since i ate the Tiramisu which bought by my sister, i wanted to go there again so much.
We sat at the same table like last time. Coincidence.
I have to say, i really like the decoration there. 
Due the place where i sat, i could not take nice photo of the restaurant. so no photo. lol.
The interesting is. the menu is just a piece of white paper with black words.


 Say hello to my very cool dad :)

 

Brother's Seafood Spaghetti.
tiger prawns, mussels & calamari in roma tomato sauce.
Well, i did not try it, so i don't know how it taste like. lol.

 My sister's Wild Mushroom Risotto
arborio rice with girolle & ceps, white truffle oil
I wanted to order this previously, but since my sister wanted to eat this, i changed to Fish & Chips.
I tasted a spoon of it.
I still prefer Bel Pasto's (an Italian Restaurant). :)

My Fish & Chips.
Dory Fillet, French Fries & Tartare sauce
The thick fillet fillet is coated with very nice crisp.
Love the tartare sauce!! lovely.
However...
I still prefer Delicious's..
which more else the same, have nice fillet, a lot of french fries and nice SALAD which here don't have. :)

My mom's Nasi Ulam
with lemongrass curry chicken, prawn berempah, eggplant & kerabu pucuk paku
I did not try it, but according to my mom,
 it taste super nice.
I like the colour of the whole dish. :)

My dad's Nasi Lemak 
According to him, it taste nice also!
  
Itadakimasu.
My brother took this. i like it. hehe.

Overall. it was nice. but next time i would only order the local food or pizza.
Anyway, i will come back again for TIRAMISU!!!! for sure.
*** LOVE the name of the restaurant.

 We were still not full. lol. = =
Our next destination:

Since the "table cloth" is a paper and pencils were provided, my brother just drew on it. :D

My sister and brother ordered this Hot chocolate lava cake with ice cream.
While my parents and I shared this Afternoon tea set (although is not afternoon. lol.)

that consist of:
-2 cups of coffee/ tea


-2 pieces of scones with cream & jam
-2 pieces of chocolate pralines

-1 tiramisu
-1 creme brulee
-1 piece of opera cake

-2 pieces of mushroom quiche
-2 pieces of tomato brushetta
-2 pieces of toasted sandwiches

this whole pyramid cost : RM48.90 !!
Freaking EXPENSIVE.
My dad knew that i wanted to try it so much so he did not say much.
but i really felt very very very bad D:
I would NEVER order this again.

Anyway.... i still like the
creme brulee. it was coffee flavoured.
i really like the texture of this dessert and this does not have heavy smell of egg. :)

Mushroom quiche
ermm, not bad. 

the chocolate. it's lovely.

 I don't really like the tiramisu.
not the one that i would want to eat the second time.

Tomato brushetta was.... ok..

sconess!! i really like sconess^^
but this cream is not really cream i think.
it taste more like egg white. i think it's not "blended" enough. lol.

i still love the combination of cream and the jam though. :D

My brother's artistic drawing.


I don't know why i like the lizard. = =
it's really very artistic for me. LOL.

After we left the Gardens, we went to the Renaissance Hotel to get the birthday cake.
We seriously had no idea what flavour is the cake (until now also, even though we had eaten it. lol)
it is a VERY unique cake which i don't know how to describe. = =


lol. not my birthday also.

Fattening cream balls. LOL.
we were "destroying" the cake, that's why it looked so ugly. haha.

Dear brother, although sometimes you are so so so so so not cute,
but you are still my cute brother.
( i meant cute in terms of attitude + behaviour + personality )

HAPPY 16th BIRTHDAY!!

i still love you laa.

240911@My 18th Birthday Dinner

My Birthday is actually on 13th of September, but due to some problem, my family and I decided to delay the birthday dinner to 24th of September. :D

We went to the Sagano Japanese Restaurant at Hotel Renaissance, KL for a Japanese Buffet Dinner. :)




There's an a la carte menu and it's quite expensive! O.o


My first dish: Some sushi and the green things the seaweed.
Honestly, all the food was nice. except for the food from this section.
The sashimi was not really fresh (this look ok though), most of them looked kinda dull, and not much choices.. So i only ate once for this section.
Anyway, seaweed was quite nice! :)


Seaweed: Yummy!


Yess, that's my sis over there.
and she's taking some grilled meat. :)
The food which closest to me was the Japanese garlic fried rice and mixed vegetables.


One of my favourite dish in this whole buffet dinner: Oden.
The soup was super nice!! i'm not sure with the ingredient of the broth, but it taste EXCELLENT. The sweetness and the saltiness of the broth matched perfectly with the ingredients!!




This section was actually a "shabu-shabu" station.
But i did not try it.


They fried the Tempura on the spot!
The Ebi Tempura (Prawns) is one of the MUST-try food in this buffet,
the prawns were so fresh and the crisp was soo... Crispy!! lol.


My favourite: Dessert section.


Chocolate brownie (not bad!), homemade strawberry & Green tea ice cream (Green tea 1 was super nice!), fruits, local kuih- muih, very nice tart and mix fruit pie.


These were basically what i ate that night.
Yum Yum!!


Again, this one of my favourite!!
Love Oden~ :)


Too bad my elder brother could not join us, he was in Thailand.


My mom and my uncle from Singapore :)

After we filled our stomach, my mom ordered a bottle of white wine which was free!! ^^

My brother is DAMN good in making different kinds of expression.
I could not show you all of it (there's more than 20 photos of it), coz if i do, you might could not find my blog anymore. probably the whole blog will be deleted by my brother. lol. ==
For an example,

From this:


To this:

Kinda scary with his small eyes squeezed until like beans, an apple on his hand and "Peace sign" on the other hand. =="


Yummy wine. :D


Okie, both of us do looked ODD in this photo.
probably becoz of the angle.




Finished a bottle!

That night, i reached home around 11:30pm.
A wonderful night. :)

Summary of this Sagano Japanese Buffet:
For ME,
7/10
Sushi and sashimi were not that nice.
But if you got the chance to eat there:
must try:
-Tempura
-Oden
-Soba
-Bread pudding
-homemade ice- cream
-the honeydew/ melon
-ikayaki
-some seaweed maybe?

:)
