Yes, my second Birthday post.

Caution: Food Photos overload!

I had my birthday dinner a day earlier with my family, I decided to have Frangipani and the only reason was because I wanted to bring my parents to all the nicer restaurants that I have been to.

So, right after I finished work on Friday. I called my parents to let them know what time I was going over. I got home, took a shower, changed and got ready. Our dinner reservation was at 7.30pm so I reached KL at around 7.15pm to pick them up and off to Frangipani.

My cake and the menu.

Home made bread served

Love their table light.

Me, mummy and Sista

My family, Gin faster come back so we can take a proper family portrait.

All of us chose to have the 3 course meal, and everyone ordered different starters and main dishes. This might be my last visit there cause I guess I have already tasted all the dishes there in one visit.

Cauliflower and leek soup

Very cute and delicious sweet potato puree.

where to start???

First course..

Fresh tiger prawn ceviche with avocado cream, dried tomato reduction and chillies.

Three fresh Kumamoto oysters with white miso vinaigrette

Hickory smoked anchovies with cream cheese and lemon butter sauce on a grilled organic rye and molasses toast

I didn’t manage to take pictures of all the first courses because I was too hungry and some were quite far away.

Second Course..

Grilled basil garlic infused snails with sweet pea puree, dried tomato glaze and garlic peanut crumble

Deep fried spice dusted soft shell crab with white bouillabaisse sauce, tomato reduction, chickpea aïoli and saffron foam

“Black” rice risotto with grilled fresh water prawn, baby squid and oyster

Warm tea smoked salmon with confit potatoes crème fraîche and salmon roe

Lychee Sorbet to cleanse our palates before the  main course.

Grilled betel leaf wrapped Angus tenderloin with Savoy cabbage and Indonesian black nut sauce

This is my favorite dish, the beef is so well cooked and mouth-watering. *thumbs up*

Pan roasted duck confit with mustard cream and mashed potato on a crisp potato couronne

Organic chicken breast, seared and then baked in a hay, salt and spice crust, served with celeriac truffle pancake, celeriac puree and verjuice glaze

Thanks for travelling all the way from KP to have dinner with me in KL.

Thanks a lot!

My family always say this to me :” How many times r you celebrating your birthday?”

I always have no idea how many times, I love celebrating birthdays with my loved ones. Dinner, cake, laughter, delicious food and wishes, they are always my favorite.

So, I had my pre-birthday dinner on Thursday with Shirley because she had to leave KL for the weekend and she couldn’t make it to my birthday bash in Zouk. We decided to have western food and it has to be some where near my place so we wont have to get stuck in the traffic for more than 1-2 hours.

It was my first time dining at Souled Out, I have been told that their food is quite good.

My messy hair with Shirley hehehehe..

JO and I.

I ordered a mojito but in the end JO drank the whole glass cause I couldn’t take the taste of it, not my type of drink.

Seafood Maninara

B-B-Q Chicken

Sizzling lamb cutlet (my favorite)

My first birthday cake of me 2010 birthday celebration. There is many more to come haha

Thanks to Shirley for dinner and cutting Nacho’s nails, I had fun chit chatting with you that night.

We should do it more often not just for birthday celebrations.

There will be many more birthday celebration posts coming up,

stay tuned.

September is always a happy month for me cause this month is full of joy and celebration. For your information, Jo and I are both September babies, our birthdays are just 20 days apart. Jo always prefers a quiet birthday celebration with his loved ones, so we decided to have his pre-birthday dinner with the family and a nice birthday dinner with me on the actual day.

We decided to have Jo’s birthday dinner at a Chinese restaurant in Bangsar , they serve very very good Chinese food, yum. I will list this restaurant into my top 10 favorite Chinese restaurants in KL. My first favorite is still the Chinese restaurant back in my hometown, love their fried chicken!

I will just upload some of my favorite dishes of the dinner. Soft shell crab with bun, super juicy and yummy! I always love dishes that contains bun, like 悶肉加饅頭is my super favorite!

Then we have Chinese style steak.

牛排(steak)，南乳排骨(ribs)，魚(fish) and 豆腐(tofu)。

Well decorated vege.

Last but not least, eggplant & meat noodles.

After dinner we went straight to Pressroom to have a drink.

After work we went over to Solaris to pick up Jo’s cake that I ordered a few days ago.

Lighted the candles.

Made a wish…

Blew out the candles and cut the cake! We were craving to have something sweet so we ate the cake before dinner. Although it’s not a very good looking cake but it tasted really really good not too sweet or heavy.

Jo has been telling me about this restaurant when we were in the States and also after reading my fren’s blog about this restaurant, I decided to give it a try. I made a reservation 2 weeks ago and have been looking forward ever since.

Camwhored in the car

Frangipani @ Changkat Street, KL . I think my watermark ruined this picture =(

What a coincidence, Frangipani first opened its door on Me and JO’s anniversary which is on the 24th of Dec.

Love their interior with a little pool in the middle of the restaurant. When I first stepped into the restaurant…

Waiter : ” Your first time here?”

Bo:”Yes.”

Waiter:”Just so you know that is a pool in the middle, watch your step.”

Bo: “……” 0.0 Thanks

I can imagine people actually falling into the pool because it really does look like a floor, due to the flat and calm water surface.

Birthday boy looking at the menu.

I was busy taking pictures till Jo says” I think it’s time for you to look at the menu.”

more of my camwhored picture.

Copied from Jo’s facebook album caption “Fool playing with her phone”

Prawn & crab bisque

My favorite- Scallop

Squid ink risotto

Quail

Lychee sorbet

Lamb

Wagyu beef cheeks. Melt in your mouth yummy.

I was in a hurry to take pictures of all the food that we ordered, so here are parts of it. After dinner we went over to Library at Mid Valley to meet up with Jo’s friends to have couple of drinks. The boys drank 5 jugs of beer and got really excited and suggested we should continue drinking at G6 in the Gardens. It was Jo’s birthday so everyone was so happy about it and I have no idea why! Alcoholics always come out with a very reasonable reason to drink.  Well at the end of the day, I was the one who had to send Jo and his friend home. Do I still need to say much about it? Hehehe I’m pretty sure everyone had fun, that is the most important part.

Last but not least, Happy Birthday my birthday boy.

♥ You
