Snowflake again!

I visited Snowflake again, for the Soya series this time. Previously i visited Snowflake Kota Damansara branch and posted before about Snowflake Kota Damansara. Recently i went to Snowflake Mid Valley. It's situated at the top of shopping complex floor, same floor as GSC Cinema of Mid Valley, outside Mid Valley Exhibition Centre and Pets Wonderland.

I remembered previously in Snowflake Kota Damansara, i waited only for less than 1-minute time for the UFO to blink. But this time i waited for around 3-minute time, so i have more time to investigate on this UFO plate..=_^

Beeping UFO as reminder of ready order at Snowflake

Beeping UFO was beeping when the order was ready

I wanted to try the new Japan Combo II, but during my visit, they had run out of red bean (I guess all has been eaten by UFO). So i had to try the new Japan Soya Series without red bean.

Snowflake new product: Japan Combo II

This is my Japan Combo II!

This is the new Ocha Ball. It's chewable, very Q and very satisfying with slight green tea smell.

We ordered another Soya Series with topping of Grass Jelly, Peanuts, Pearl and green bean.

I guess i love Soya Series more than Grass Jelly Series! For details of Grass Jelly, refer to my previous post at Snowflake Kota Damansara.

Pasta Zanmai, Mid Valley

After visiting the 2nd Online Fashion Entrepreneurs Weekend (MOFEW) 2011 at Mid Valley Exhibition Centre, me and others decided to try on Pasta Zanmai.

Pasta Zanmai at Mid Valley Megamall

During each month, there will be different items for promotion. For this month, there are promotional items such as Soft Shell Crab Risotto Roll, Lamb Pie, Beef Bacon Pizza, Aka-Wine Teriyaki Chicken, Banana Cheese Tart, etc.

Mini Pasta Set at Pasta Zanmai

Pasta Zanmai

There were so many choices in the menu! But the variety just made us blur. Luckily the Prince made a good judgement! His justification was, the pasta must be very nice, that's why it's named Pasta Zanmai! So we decided to order the mini pasta sets which was inclusive of 2 dishes.

We ordered 2 sets of mini pasta set, which were:
Set number-3: Mini Chicken Teriyaki Pasta and Mini Hotate Pizza
Set number-6: Mini Kaki Kimuchi Pasta (Oyster Pasta) and Mini Tori Kaarage Garlic Rice
Each set costs at RM 23 for 2 dishes.


The first dish- Kaki Kimuchi Pasta, from Set 6, was a type of slightly spicy soup, cooked with Oyster and fresh mushroom. The Oysters were very big and juicy.

The second dish from Set 6: Tori Kaarage Garlic Rice was just a normal garlic fried Japanese rice, with Fried Chicken. But this was not mini at all. This whole set-6 was actually more than enough for 2 persons.

The first dish from Set 3: Mini Teriyaki Chicken Pasta was topped with Teriyaki Chicken, with a half-boiled egg. When the half-boiled egg broke, it just covered all the spaghetti with egg juice.

The second dish from set 3: Mini Hotate Pizza was served at just a nice portion. I highly recommend this, the pizza! The skin was thin and crispy, it was topped with seafood or scalloop. It's like a combination of Japanese and Western flavor.

Others ordered an extra Beef rice set, which was served by Miso Soup and Vegetables Salad. It's quite nicely cooked, however i didn't take this.

Tony Roma's again!

After the previous visit to Tony Roma's Pavilion outlet for my pre-birthday celebration, (you can read on my previous post about Tony Roma's Pavilion visit), i joined the Tony Roma's club online. And they sent me a voucher for a Free Entree at the Tony Roma's Pavilion outlet as my birthday gift! So i visited Tony Roma's Pavilion again!

I printed out the voucher, and i can order for any entree or main-course in the menu except for Wahyu beef.

I do not take beef, so i order a Cod fish, and replace the original side dish of vegetables to baked potato.

Yummy Cod Fish, it was soft and juicy, and most important, it was fresh. I like the baked potato too, which  had a thick skin. =p

Durian Durian, KLCC

Durian Durian is one of the new kiosks in KLCC. Most of the food here is made from durian- The King of tropical fruit!

Previously i posted about new KLCC kiosks in my previous posts, which are Gong-cha pearl milk tea, Chocolat World, and this Durian Durian.

As a Malaysian, most of us know what is Durian. Either you love it extremely, or you hate it very much. But for foreigners, they might not aware of this special fruit- Durian! Some describe the smell as unique, but some describe it as fart-smell. Some run hundred-feet away when smell Durian, some go everywhere to find for delicious species Durian.

Durian, is described as having unique odour, and formidable thorn- covered husk. The edible flesh emits a distinctive odour, strong and penetrating even when the husk is intact. The smell has been described variously as almonds, rotten onions, turpentine and gym socks. However, the 19th-century British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace famously described its flesh as a "rich custard highly flavoured with almonds."

~ source from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian. 

Of course here, in the newly open kiosk, you cannot find fresh Durian. But there are readily made pastries, specially made from Durian. There are cakes, puff, biscuits, tarts, etc, available at this new "Durian Durian" kiosk.

Durian Crumble Cheese Tart at Durian-Durian
RM 5.00 per piece

RM 6.00 per piece

This is quite an interesting item, egg pudding in the egg shell!

Egg Pudding at Durian-Durian
RM 4.50 for 2 pcs

I can't wait to try this. It was cold as they kept it in fridge, soft and fragrant with egg and slight durian smell.

I bought this after 9pm in the evening, and i enjoy an extra promotion discount at 20% off.
I guess this shop will attract lots of the foreigners or tourists as Durian (the King of tropical fruits) is a seasonal fruits. It's not always a Durian season so sometimes it's hard to find Durian during the non-peak season. And Durian is absolutely a no-go for airplanes, i guess not the readily made pastry!
