Secret Indulgence

~~drooooool~~

Weekends are always look forward to

Great food

Not that weekdays food is horrible

But its the usual kuey teow soup or yee mee soup

But on weekends, there is always random decisions that we make to go places to eat

Like this weekend

Went for Zang Toi's, 57th West Street in Pavilion for brunch on Saturday

And then on Sunday

Ampang Yong Tau Foo, Subang for brunch

And then Restaurant Sungai You, Palm Grove for dinner

*still drooling*

Only took pictures from 57th West Street because everyone would have known Ampang Yong Tau Foo

And I was too busy eating to even remember to capture pictures during dinner

Should have done that on that snail dish

Anyways...its sad too say

But then as a Hainanese

I have no idea of a lot of things that's Hainanese

I know Hainanese Chicken Chop cus' its one of grandpa's restaurant signature dish

I know of Hainanese Chicken Rice

Because that's the stereotype

But but, I have no idea of this one below

Hainanese Rock Buns

And it comes in several flavors

Raisin, Berry, Nuts

And this..no, this is not Hainanese
This is the must-try

Fruity Ice Tea Punch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And as usual

Desserts are always a must

This time there's more than one!

This is Crepe Gateau with Ice-Cream

The vanilla flavored ice-cream is delicious

Not the usual too milky and powdery vanilla ice-cream

Lime Cake with ice-cream

Mum love the mint ice-cream though normally she's not a fan for minty stuff

And this

Looks like the chocolate banana cake that we had the previous time we were there

(And yes, I had another round of chocolate banana cake:)

But they called it the Chocolate Crepe Gateau

No idea why

But then again, name is not important

The taste is

Dark chocolate lovers would love this ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Weekends are over

Monday is here again

Definitely looking forward and secretly planning

Of what to eat this weekend

And ohh...apparently this month of Fridays are public holidays for us

Not sure though, gotta double check

If it is, then its a bonus

An extra day = extra place to try = extra food

Mmmm...*evil grin*

That's it!

Till then', chaoz!

p/s: Have great weekends everyone! :)

New Moon = dissapointment except for the fights and awesome abs!

Bollywood Craze

Humming melodies from songs out of Hindi films is one of the norms in my family. How can we not when both my parents spent most of their dates catching up with the latest release of Hindi films during their time. How can we not love the ever must-have scene; the running around a tree serenating one's love to one another when we ourselves have this one secret desire in us to be part of that scene. Shh,..lets keep between us, ehh? How can we fail to memorise the lyrics and melodies of the song when we have our own collection of Hindi lullaby, a gift of childhood from Dad. How can we not shed tears alongside with the actors in the film when everytime we watch a Hindi film, we felt as if we were on the set with them ;) From Dad's list of favourite choice of Haathi Mere Saathi, Love In Tokyo and An Evening In Paris to the latest addition of Devdas, Kabhie Khusie Kabhie Gham, Kal Ho Naa Ho, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai..there's a long list going on here. And with the history of the origin of my name, how can we avoid the constant, all of sudden craze of Hindi films, right?
****************************************************

Dad's all time favourite; can only manage to find this few, can't find the one where I get my name from... :(

And the latest addition to the family's selection
This is one that still manage to make us cry despite the many times of watching it

"Pretty woman, deko deko na"

Another epic one

Costumes, songs and choreographies - AWESOME!

This is Kuch Kuch Hota Hai

Not Kuchi Kuchi Hota Hai

OOooo..this is one that I didn't regret buying

Leading actress Deepika Padukone is beautiful

A little Aishwarya Rai look-alike but Aishwarya is still prettier

***************************************************

Like other movies

This is me personally; only certain actors attracts my attention to watch the film

And when it comes to Hindi films

Other than the storyline

I choose the film according to the actors too

Hindi films are REEEALL good with Amitabh Bachan (sorry if wrong spelling)

Know why?

Cus he can make you hate him to the fullest in his antagonist role

And love him to the max with his protagonist role

How can we forget the Bollywood King?

Movies that he stars in

It makes you laugh at one moment and cry at the other

Kabhie Kushi Kabhie Gham, Kal Ho Naa Ho

Man, you can really cry with him

Owh, and he looks real good with Kajol on set

How can you resist those eyes??

Beauty and talent together makes all of them

Good actress that can laugh at themselves while playing their roles

And still look as beautiful as ever

********************************************

That's it

Another random post of mine

Bollywood films are films that I luurrrvveee

No kidding

Psstt...the whole origin of my name that I mentioned above

Yeah, my name Sheena is from one of the Hindi film

Dad "fell in love" with the leading actress in that particular movie

Her name was Sheena

And so the name was given to me

*proud*

Aight, thats it!

Will post up on weekends pics soon!

Chaoz!~
