I had heard of this restaurant for some time. Finally, I was jumping for joy when I was extended the invitation to join my fellow friends on this review which I was just aired on the recent Ho Chak! episode on 8TV introducing Little Pantry.


Headed by Chef Andrew Seah, with more than 25 years of experience in restaurant, Chef Andrew is delighting food aficionados with an array of tantalizing European and Asian cuisines with his good balance of Europe and Asian menu to appeal to all food revelers. With great pleasure we were presented with some of his amazing food . . .

This is another way way outdated post… it was Christmas, planning with Pam and YH to go down town for photography shooting. I am embarrassed to say the least. However, we dropped by at Shaw Parade for some food and light refreshments before proceed to the heart of KL for some serious photography.


We made our orders promptly as both YH and I had come to this little warm café. The decoration at Typic a café had changed a little from the last time we went. It has the rustic old Christmas feel to it. With little small handmade Christmas tree on each table and the over head hang some natural brown ornament which matches the interior of the café.

This is way way outdated post… I am embarrassed to mention the least. We were on our way to meet up with another friend of us when the sky turned gray and we were early to our ‘date’ therefore, my partner in crime suggested to make a short stop at Shaw Parade for a coffee session.

To me, the best place to be at when it is pouring is definitely in the cozy of a café. The smell of brewing coffee beans, titter tatter of the rain against the window, the slashing sound of the water from the vehicle and of course, the transformation of the grey clouds (without the thunder and lightning).

The little café is almost no place available we waited for a while for a couple to leave to have their table. While we were looking through the menu, the waitress so patiently explain to us and gave us suggestions based on our preference.

We were at Typica café when it is raining. Small and cozy with lots of window, we were greeted by their cheery staff and they are very patient in explaining to us the type of coffee and their recommendation according to our taste and needs.

My sista is another year older! Its time to call for a celebration!!!


It was a weekday to best place to have dinner and not having to travel too far and getting through heavy traffic again . . .  Fisherman's Wharf came to mind and the food is good too.

Located inside of Carrefour Wangsa Maju is Jombali, a halal family restaurant which serves Malaysian food. They serve a wide variety of food besides Malaysian food of Malay, Chinese and Indians; there is also the Western and Nyonya cuisine. Cozy with its warm lighting and wood furnishing just like how Balinese would do. There are even cushions on the benches to make you more comfy.

We started off by ordering dishes from their new menu.

Onde Onde . . . it is a rather strange name for a restaurant. It reminds me of the soft chewy kuih filled with sweet gula Melaka when it was bitten into it – sort of like the Malay siao long bao. Packing up and leaving the office as punctual as we are hoping that we could to get to Desa ParkCity on time. Braving the traffic congestion from work, we were late for our appointment of which we took 40 minutes.

Before we enter the restaurant of for our dinner, we took a quick snap of the signage at the entrance.


The interior of the restaurant brought back the nostalgic feel of the Nyonya Restaurant. With its antique china on the wall, the stone table and the colourful decorated stool it does brought the feeling of being transported back to the past where you can enjoy a good nice cup of coffee with some friends while chatting after a good long day at work.

Finally I had the chance to try out at the restaurant which had been residing in Taman Desa for a long long time. Fisherman's Wharf here claimed to serves authentic German cuisine. With wooded interior of an old time cafe and bar. It does look like the old time pub of the cowboy in some way.

Was browsing through some magazines when I came accross Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie, KL in the Jusco Pearl Magazine, Issue 62. Then a few of us from the 'Small Potatoes' decided to go for a session since so many people was talking about it.

Firstly, apology as I had not jotted down the names and price of the food we had eaten. Hence, will describe it as accurately as possible to the food we had ordered.

Wendy and Foozie had ordered their mushroom soup. They had mentioned that it is a must to have that in Levain. Cream of Mushroom, creamy and with chunks of mushroom and dash of spice too.

Since we were stuck in Mon't Kiara during a heavy downpour. It was cold, we wanted a place to stay warm while waiting for the rain to stop after we did some light shopping at Cold Storage. The smell of coffee drifted to us. We headed towards Dr. Cafe for a nice warm cuppa.

I missed Taiwan though I did not visit much places nor eat much on the local food while I was there... good that there is restaurant like such available in Malaysia. Was shopping with my buddies and we decided to go Little Taiwan for our lunch.


Food are similar to those available in Taiwan. Probably the preparation and ingredients are a little different to cater to the local palate.


Pan Fried Dumpling - RM8.90 (6 pieces)

Had been craving for cakes lately... was shopping with my buddies and came across San Terri Cottage at The Gardens. I remember YH did mentioned that she had bought this Black Magic awhile ago while we were doing a food review at Impromptu, Menara Hap Seng that it is good. Therefore... capitulate to my cravings.

Frozen yogurt are around sprouting in and around the Klang valley. Here, Crumbs came all the way from Hong Kong to Malaysia. Their first outlet in Pavilion, Kuala Lumpur was opened not too long ago.

Here at Crumbs, the frozen yogurt are silky soft and smooth to the taste buds with only one original flavour. Their yogurt are are made with no added water and no added ice to create the smooth texture of the yogurt. To topped it of with their signature topping - the crumbs; are delicious and I totally agree it is an original.

It's mum's birthday! We made our reservation for the celebration at Nihon Kai, where is it conveniently located not too far from our home and we do not have to brave the heavy traffic to get to somewhere for dinner - one of our norm restaurant for Japanese food I suppose.

Nihonkai Sp Maki - RM16.00

New bakery was in town. My sister told me about it not too long ago while they were still under construction. She told me it was the same contractor whom work for the Levain's. Now that it is opened, I can see the similarity.

I was home early from work and parents were still in the kitchen preparing dinner. Both me and my sister was looking for something for dessert when she reminded me of this bakery. We bought Custard donut, Caramel Brioche and some macaroons.

I was after our early dinner that we wanted to have some dessert to wash down the yummy dinner. We set out to Kuchai Lama for some dessert at Sweet Hut. There are quite alot of options there but there is no Tau Hu Hua. Pudding mainly. Pudding of different variety from Hong Kong chef.

The interior of the shop is decorated in white and red, located at the main shop facing the main road. After being seated, we made our order - 


Fresh fruits and mango pudding with cookies ice-cream - RM9.80 from the Fresh fruits series.
