Little Bally @ Pinnacle Sri Petaling

A newly opened restaurant in Pinnacle mall, with Bali concept interior but serving mostly western food. This is their 3rd branch after Subang Jaya and Puchong Jaya.

It is also a place for drinks coz it opens from 3pm till 2am.

The menu is quite extensive...

posting here for my own reference...

Their chicken chop is worth trying

pork chop maybe?

they have top 10 best seller items

This XXL chicken chop is so money-worth, but only available before 8pm and need to buy a drink to get the promotion.

So, out of curiosity I went to try it on a fine weekday.

Add on mushroom sauce for RM1.

Huge portion....

The drink is huge too....served in a tall glass with height almost the length of the straw.

The bill came to RM21.80 nett after service charge and tax. Taste-wise OK OK lah....chicken chop would be too dry if without the mushroom sauce.

Unrelated to the above, Super Kitchen Pan Mee has replaced all their bowls with new ones that has the restaurant logo....Perhaps they followed Jojo Pan Mee footstep (which did the same last year). Ah, branding matters!

Japanese food 'fix' at Warakuya....I wanted udon and rice....so had both😁

Soon Lok Puchong Jaya

[Throwback] Family dinner at Soon Lok this time.

Trying out this place coz it has quite alot of positive reviews on Google

We had:

Claypot tofu with assorted veggies

Yam ring with kungpao chicken

cross-section of the yam ring....I can taste the deep, earthy richness of the yam!😋

This place specializes in roast duck....so we ordered half duck

not to forget some greens....stir-fried romaine lettuce in fuyu sauce

The dishes before the claypot tofu arrives

Overall, good quality dishes and quick service too. They occupied 3 shop lots (if not mistaken) and all tables were fully occupied during the weekend. Luckily, we booked a table beforehand.

Total bill came to RM162.50 nett for 5 pax. Quite reasonable.

We will definitely be back again!

Chillax in airbnb home

Continuation of the previous post

The following day (Sunday, 18th Jan).....I was still recovering from jet lag...

hence, I stayed at home and in the evening went to the nearby supermarket to stock up food and essential items.

This place is spacious....1 bedroom with 2 bathrooms and a proper living, dining and kitchen area....

This is a corner unit. Bright and spacious.

the kitchen is equipped with microwave, oven, air fryer, cooker, blender, coffee maker, toaster, water boiler....

The Drija electric cooker which has safety lock enabled

At night, the rooftop pool

The rooftop communal working/meeting room

The communal areas (gym, squash court, sauna, swimming pool, meeting rooms) are only accessible with fingerprint scanning.

Overall, quite a nice place to stay and is convenient to get groceries and food. There are 2 restaurants located at the ground floor of this apartment, one of it is an award-winning pizza restaurant with long queue on every evening. Will blog about it when I have time😉

Kenny Rogers

When was the last time I had KR? i think it was during the MCO time when I ordered deliveries thru Foodpanda....5 years ago.....time flies!

So, time to re-visit KR!

I always like their side dishes and muffin....my favorites are potato salad, coleslaw and mashed potatoes....

Some CNY decors in IOI City Mall in early January.

It was still early for CNY shopping then....

To those celebrating....Happy Chinese New Year!

I'm currently in British Virgin Islands and is working like any normal working day😅

Arcadia, Costa del Este

After an almost 40 hours journey (including transit waiting time in SG and AMS), I arrived in Panama City around 5pm something on 17th January. Waited for the company pick-up driver but he did not come. Was so frustrated. I had to call him multiple times and waited for 3 hours. Apparently, some misunderstanding on my arrival date as he came the day before but I wasn't there so he thought I'm not coming😏

I was so drain of energy to vent my anger...which I believe is not his fault but the office manager who gave him the wrong date. My boss who arrived at a later flight saw me looking like a dead fish pitied me too😥

And then I still have to find my way to get into the airbnb coz no one is there to guide or pass me any keycard....

So, i texted the office manager, and she gave me the instructions to open the door. Tried for 15 minutes then only manage to get into my 'new house'....almost wanna pengsan....was hungry, jet lag and tired 😰

Anyway, since I already so drain of energy (battery running low)...just simply snapped a few pictures of the apartment unit.

Dining table and living room

Kitchen with all the cooking equipment and fridge.

OK, quite a decent place to stay. Better than the previous apartment....coz this one comes with a view.....

But it was already nighttime so I couldn't capture the 'view' yet....gotta wait till the next morning.

McD Prosperity Burger & Kampung Vibes

[Throwback last Dec/early Jan] Had this from a Malay nasi campur stall in a local campus canteen. RM7 for rice with 3 dishes: ikan keli masak lemak, beansprouts and sambal potato wedges.

The view from the canteen...

So green...

It has the 'kampung' vibe, peaceful, serene and with lush greenery

Not far from the canteen there is a parking lot

The airport ERL passes by every now and then

cloudy day

[Below] The carpark lot is full coz it is a weekday morning

Campus cat lazying around the compound

I kacao her with my terrible 'meow' greeting....She stared at me like 'what the helly with this hooman?'

i'm just here to say hi😂.....don't be mad yea

Then she went back to her relax mode

The students nowadays are so lucky to have 24 hours warm food vending machine. During my time, we can only cook maggi if hungry at late night, or worse still eat biscuit or drink milo to survive till the next morning when the canteen opens again.

This vending machine has nasi lemak!

Unrelated to the above, i miss my cny snacks!!! My favorite snack is always the arrowhead chips, but I seldom buy from outside...We usually DIY homemade.

McD Prosperity burger....I had this for the 4th times already since Dec last year.
