Kembali bersiaran....
Hari ni genaplah 47 hari *ko baru lepas pantang bersalin kah?? iol tak menulis apa2 kat blog nih. Jangan ditanya kenapa and oven pun tak ber ON...iol banyak makan hati ehhh...makan luar sajork :-)
Tapi rasanya belum terlewat untuk iol berkongsi dengan peminat-peminat di luar sana *matilaarrr dah mulaaa...tentang birthday celebration yang baru sahaja berlalu walaupun ceritanya mungkin pada sesetengah orang dah tahu...tapi peminat dari benua Eropah, Amerika Utara, Amerika Selatan, Papua New Guinea dan Planet Uranus mesti nak tahu jugak apa yang iol santap atau masak during my birthday celebration. I must say this year birthday was one of the best I' ve ever had and perhaps the BEST sebab iol dikelilingi mereka yang masih lagi menyayangi diri ini yang tak seberapa *bergenang air mata..ayoohhh drama sgtkan ko!! Many thanks for your kindness, generosity and thought and also for making my birthday this year so emotional. You know who you are!
Let's see what I had this year...buuurrrpppppp
Wow!..the pictures above were the cakes I had eaten during my celebrations. Now you know why iol punyer body sama dah dengan my Kitchen Goddess, Nigella Lawson!. The first one with the candles is Durian Cake. Inspired by Classic Victoria Sponge Cake *tetapkannn, my dear friend, Duchess of Ipoh baked this cake not just for me, but also for 3 other friends who celebrated their birthday in the same month. The cake were sandwich with fresh durian frosting which I thought was a brilliant idea to substitute butter cream frosting. iol actually not very fond of durian but after iol tasted this cake, I gave an exceptional to this one. Thank you, love!
The second cake was bought from the very famous chain cake stores in Malaysia. It is called Chocolate and Walnut Cake. The cake packed with layers of chocolate sponge and chocolate cream with generous amount of chopped walnut scattered around the layers..yum yum yum. I celebrated with another adek-beradek and almost every adek-beradek was there, having exquisite middle eastern food together, recently. Yallaa yallaa.
The third cake was also bought from the same store but of course from different branch laa *kesian branch lain pun nak carik makan jugekkk....two piece of cakes. One is Chocolate and Walnut Cake and the other one is Pecan Butterscotch Cake...complete with a cup of Earl Grey tea..very nice!!!
And the last one...tak yah laa iol kenal kan. (riak nih hehehe)..kalu anda peminat setia blog harus tahu kann *nah kau soalan quiz! ...I baked for myself but ended up giving to my family. They loved it!!!
I also went out for meals with some of the great friends. The top picture is Friday's Sundae from TGI Jumaat. This dessert served in a tall glass with vanilla ice cream topped with hot fudge, caramel sauce, nuts and whipped cream. Even 4 orang makan pun tak habis *well 2 orang tuh jaga badan. Takott lemak katernyerr hihihi..
Next is high tea at one of the cosy cafe in Bangsar with soulmate and Duchess of Ipoh. We had variety of snacks to binge with a pot of tea and coffees. This place is not only has gorgeous food but also a nice place to have small gathering with the love ones.
The third picture is Japanese BBQ buffet style with sebahagian adek-beradek. Boleh order ala carte kalau uols bukan jenis melantak tak hengat! This restaurant is voted as the best YAKINIKU in town! katernyelahhh.
Last one is Yee Sang at Quality Hotel with fantastic friends while having dim sum sampai perot pecah hehehehe. It was a great experience because that was the first time I had Yee Sang and mixed the ingredients using chopsticks!
Oh gosh..the eating continues....iol melonjak kegirangan apabila masa kat satu restaurant nih iol nampak they serve my favorite spanish food, Paella de Marisco aka Seafood Paella! Chef yang sediakan tuh sangatlaa generous sebab dia bagi banyak sangat sampai penoh pinggan! Taste kat iol kottt *perasannn!!
Next, iol pergi sendirian ke satu English cafe style di Subang bagi merasakan suasana meraikan birthday di negara Union Jack *matilaarrr kene kecam... kali ni iol pegi sendirian sebab bagi mengimbas memori indah yang penoh luka di sana...opssss no meroy story please!..sorry peeps :) Dapat makan Hummingbird Cake...awesome!!!
And the celebration completed with the show at Dewan Filharmonik Petronas on the night of my birthday dengan alunan romantik music scores dari filem-filem Hollywood. After the show, I had Churros...bukan cik cur yaaa.. a spanish doughnut or gypsy waffles, a fried-dough pastry dip into hot chocolate sauce ..OMG, heaven!!!
iol jugak dapat birthday presents! To me, all the presents I got are my precious possessions and ironically, semua hadiah tuh adalah related to cooking...thanks kerana memahami isi hati ini :))). By the way, all these prezzies photos were snapped by Ajay Lee Frangoulis Khan, Nigel Barker in the making :p..the background very the English cottage :)
