Mezza9 Restaurant & Bar @ Glomac Galleria, Desa Sri Hartamas

Thanks to Angelyn for the beautiful evening and also to Jimmy who sneak me in for this food tasting event.

Mezza9 brings you a whole new dining experience, concepts and designs out of Europe with Italian, French and Mediterranean fusion cuisines.

The food of the night was prepared by the award winning chef formerly from Sentidos Tapas, Starhill, Chef Sean Wong.

Mezza9 is named after the mezzanine floor that they have in the building. Their decor is much more on designer's furnitures and fittings.

 The mezzanine floor is basically a bar where they do serve wine as well.

On the food tasting night, Mezza9 had invite a few bloggers along who is Michael Yip, Issac Tan, Evelyn Ang, Anna Bella Wong, etc

Well, I actually got no idea what is the exact name for all the dish, but I'll try to recall what Angelyn had told me hehe...

We start off with the appetizer the wild mushroom soup, taste a bit sourish and this is due to the wild mushroom and also other variety of mushrooms

another soup I'd tried is.... (I actually don't know what is  the name of it =P)

Besides, we do have Caesar Salad and Salad with Balsamic sauce, love both of it very much!

Mezza9 do have tapas size of appetizer as well, as you know we loves to order a few items for sharing, and this would be just nice for everyone ;)

Salmon bruschetta

Mushroom bruschetta (love the soft baguette and creamy mushrooms)

 Braised ox-tail (finger licking good)

 Fried Calamari (i love squid =)

Meat Ball

After all the appetizers, actually we're kinda full... but there are more coming up which is the mains. And we have....

Pan-seared Salmon, loves the crispy salmon, especially the skin hehe...

Lamb Rack (medium rare) juicy meat and the marination is awesome!

Aglio-Olio and guess wart?! the chef have secret recipe of the hot olive oil! Do request if you need it ;)

 Paella ala Malaysia style as it's spicy

 Chunky Beef Spaghetti Bolognese

I forgot which part of beef is this, definitely not a sirloin and their portion are really generous.

Finally, done with the mains and is dessert time! we have the puff with ice-cream!

 and also the hot in the inside chocolate lava yumm yummm...

I would say the portion that Mezza9 serve is really generous with the awesome taste!

Japanese BBQ @ Plaza Faber, Tmn Desa

Get to know this place is from another blogger Little Chumsy and Japanese BBQ is actually the same owner of Sanuki Udon which I'd blog before http://imkellyc.blogspot.com/2011/10/sanuki-udon-taman-bukit-desa.html, Sanuki is serving nice udon with affordable price, you guys should try it out too. And it's own by humble Japanese which resides in Malaysia for many years.


Anyway back to Japanese BBQ, it's actually located at some unseen area which is the alley between the shoplots building. This Japanese BBQ stall is a very unique in a way of typical and authentic  way of eating Japanese BBQ.

and their bbq pit is like how our grandparent use to boiled soup with a charcoal pit

Their menu is simple and straight forward

so we had ordered a few sets of Genghiskhan, pork belly, pork tongue, shoulder loin, beef ribeye, etc. of the portion is just 100g, so you will need a few sets of each if there is many of you.

The Genghiskan (lamb) is good, sweet and juicy and you will ask for more especially when the cabbage has absorb the essence of the sauce and meat.

so now let's starts to bbq our meat! meat feast begins!!

when you feel that it's overheat, there is ice cubes for you to put on grill as well, yea on the grill (spot the ice)

I never eat a pork tongue before and I thought this beef ribeye which I pose with is a pork tongue but sadly it's not -_-

oh ya we ordered a Japanese Risotto as well and yea it's like fusion japanese itallian, i know right?! but no doubt the rice is taste so sweet of essence of meat with boiled along with. thumbs up!

everyone loves the bbq and non-stop eating and catch up with each other

Cafe 55 @ Georgetown, Penang

Last weekend Eddy and I had went to Penang for NYE countdown and also a holiday break. We park our car around the heritage area in Georgetown where the Town Hall located(where also known as Esplanade)

We had also tour around the Stewart Streets which is just across and behind of a Chinese Temple and guess what we found?! A cosy and relaxing environment cafe is just around the corner which is Cafe 55

We sat down and a friendly waiter giving us a warmth welcome and give us some introductory of the cafe which there's a coffee making history museum next door which we can visit as well.

We had ordered a glass of ice latte and hot cappuccino and cafe 55 do offers mediterranean inspired cuisine and tapas in an informal setting. Their menu features a variety of light, tasty dishes, with daily specials depending on what's fresh at the market on that day.

The coffee museum that they have is where the history boards and also the traditional way of roast coffee

Cafe 55 it's not only an ordinary cafe, they do have lodge where you can rent. I'm not sure for the room rate but you can call up and check it out hehe...
