Frontera Sol of Mexico@Jaya One

Located at the place full of restaurant and cafe- Jaya One, Frontera Sol of Mexico(formerly known as Frontera Bar & Grill) has its own specialty which serves authentic Mexican & Tex-Mex cuisine. I went there with my students one day after the dance class.


Cajun Fish & Chips@RM22.95
-Southern-fried Dory fish dusted with corn meal and served with jalapeno remoulade,
seasoned fries and jalapeno coleslaw.



Chicka Boom Boom@RM26.95
-Juicy chicken breast, hand bread it with crushed potato chips and then flash fry it and top with a spicy Tex-Mex garlic sauce, serve with Mexican rice.

Chicka Boom Boom is the specialty of Frontera, many people claim that this is the best! =)


Frontera Chicken Burrito@RM15.95
-Frontera chicken, refried beans, and Frontera fire sauce wrapped in a flour tortilla,
serve with Mexican rice and choice of beans.


The burrito is just nice with thin flour wrapper and tasty chicken.

Students and I =)



Overall, the food tasted good and nice ambiance, just maybe it is a little bit pricy. You may like to try the Mexican & Tex-Mex food once~ =)

Kindori Ice-cream@Sunway Pyramid

Have you ever tried Kindori Ice-cream? If no, you are kind of outdated! There are few outlets now located at Sunway Pyramid, Berjaya Times Square, Pavilion and the newest Jusco One Utama! What makes Kindori so special is the ice-cream is made of 100% fresh milk and 100% fresh fruit. It is all about NATURAL and made on the spot!


100% Frozen Fresh Fruits

The first step of making Kindori Ice-cream is to choose your favourite fruits and they will add in the 100% fresh milk ice cream base. The selected fruits and ice-cream will be put into the mixer and a natural Kindori Ice-cream us ready to be served! =) I have tried two flavors, which is Black Sesame and Matcha(green tea). Ice-cream comes in a cup cost RM8.90 while it costs RM9.90 in cone.


Black Sesame

The black sesame is flown in from Japan for Kindori use only. It is definitely a not to be missed flavour! Thumbs up!

Matcha (green tea)

Matcha is also flown in from Japan for Kindori use only. It is rated the No 1 flavour in Japan! The strong and dense green tea make it so special~

A cozy corner for you to enjoy your ice-cream ^^


Try it at least one to taste the real natural ice-cream =)

Suchan@The Curve


Suchan, is famous for its cake and dessert. Thank to my ex-boss, I got the chance to try out this restaurant as my farewell party. We went for its newly open branch at The Curve where the location is a bit not strategic as it is situated at the Link Bridge between The Curve and e-Curve, quite hard for people to find it.

We started our meals with Top Hats (Pie Tee) and Fish Cake.

Top Hats (Pie Tee)@RM4.00 for 2 pcs

Pie Tee is a Nyonya dish which got a thin crispy cup base filled with shredded carrots, tumips and dried shrimps.

Fish Cake, served with Thai sauce@RM6.00

Enough for starter, let's dig for main dish.


Maharaja Chicken@RM22.00
-marinated and boneless chicken leg with romaine lettuce & curry mango sauce



Chicken & Mushroom Pie@RM19.00
-traditional chunky chicken & mushroom pie in creamy sauce


Aglio Olio@RM22.00
-served with tiger prawns, mussels, and chilies flakes mixed in olive oil


Alfredo@RM20.00
-asparagus creamy with salmon cubes and shiitake mushroom slices

Beef Lasagne@RM15.00
-home minced beef prepared with button mushroom and whole peeled tomatoes
with cheese variants


Thai Laksa@RM15.00

Frankly speaking, I am not a cheese and cream lover so I don't really taste the food much but according to my ex-colleagues, the food there are not bad. I still feel that there are room for improvement.

Time for dessert now! I think the well-known cake maker won't disappoint me. =)


Tiramisu
-the signature cake, coffee-syrup-soaked sponge, sandwich with cheese & bittersweet
choc slices, topped with almond pralines



Marjolaine
-layers of almonds & hazelnuts cake with layers of choc ganache & praline butter cream

Creme Caramel
-homemade with fresh ingredients & homemade caramel sauce

*If I not mistaken, a piece of cake costs RM8.90.

The cakes really taste good so if you crave for cake, you may try Suchan for high tea. =)

Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe@One Utama

I believe that most of the people notice the beautiful restaurant at One Utama with garden theme. This Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe has been operated for few years and now even got few outlets at The Curve, Sunway Pyramid and Mid Valley. Many people including me are attracted by its beautiful setting and vibrant atmosphere.


We are welcomed by a big classic piano and flowers. From its website, at centre stage a grand piano is providing the melodic charms~ =)


Surrounded by flowers, you will really think that you are in a garden rather than a restaurant. =) And I do like the decoration. We settled our order with the Weekday Lunch Specials. Sorry for the late update as the lunch set was only valid until 31 May 2011. However, they always promote lunch set, just the main course will be changed after few months.


Two lunch sets are selected, which are Chicken Teriyaki and Spaghetti Marinara, both come with Iced Lemon Tea with the price of RM15.90.






Chicken Teriyaki
I love this Chicken Teriyaki TOO MUCH~!! It is served with French beans and mashed potatoes with delicious Teriyaki sauce. Thumb up!!


Spaghetti Marinara
The Spaghetti Marinara is served with prawns, clams, half shell mussels in a tomato & basil sauce with cheese powder on top.





Iced Lemon Tea
Overall, the food there is satisfying and price is affordable. No harm to give it a try, you can enjoy the chilling atmosphere with a cup tea in the break time. =)

Let's have a look of some photos of the cafe:
