A Picture of Boredom

You are looking at the exact place where this blog is updated from. 

And where boredom looms. 

But most of all, it is within me.  

I cannot get (it) out.

 

Tom'_ Dick _ _ Harry

Care to fill in the blanks? Hehe.

We were looking forward to go somewhere in conjunction with Arthur's Day and decided upon Tom, Dick & Harry's. I've been bookmarking a few eateries which I found online and this happened to be one of them. 

 

Essentially a pub located at TTDI, it is famous for it's pork dishes and snacks. Unfortunately, Guinness was not on their menu! Bummer for Arthur's Day so beer it was for us. 

What we had was their fries, which was surprisingly good. Like McD's fries but theirs are of the thicker variant. Not satisfied, we continued with their pork platter (I forgot the actual name :-S) which has snacking portions that is good for 4 pax of ham, sliced & pan fried sausages and also pan fried thin slices of juicy pork. This really makes for a delectable party snack. This snack WILL make an appearance at Steph's Xmas & NY Eve party! Okay Steph?

While we're on the topic of food, just thought I'd load some related photos.

At Moon Garden in Taipan, this is Wen laughing at something a stranger passed to her and her colleagues.

What's so hilarious you ask?

Apparently the job description reminded her those of prostitutes i.e. Mix Business & Pleasure Together. Hmm...I don't know. You tell me.

 

T'was a really warm day. Glad I'm on the inside viewing through the looking glass. 

Oh, this was what I had...mushroom soup with puff pastry on it (again, I forgot the actual name. Damn I gotta make notes from now on). This reminded me of Dome's which was really good but cost way less @ RM7.90. I have always loved puff pastry because they're so puffy :-)

Fast forward to dinner, we visited Betty's Midwest Kitchen @ Aman Suria. Their tagline was America on a Plate. Sure, but the plate and its contents would probably weigh 1 million tonnes with all the overweight Americans on it. Hehe.

We had a blast of a dinner! But before we go to that, check out the interior. 

Returning to the food, here they are:

Carrot & Ham Soup

Tastes like one of those really flavorsome home cooked soup. Deliciously spicy and substantial with its contents of carrots, ham slices and some vegetable I dislike but works well with the soup.

Cheese Burger

Unlike your typical TGIF or Chilli's oversized and mostly lack of flavor burger, this one is still big but well proportioned to just take a bite off it rather than cutting it down to manageable size. The patty is also succulent, which brings out the flavor along with the condiments. The fries are less than stellar unlike those found at Tom Dick Harry.

Pork Chop

This was the highlight of our meal. You just have to sink your teeth into the tender meat dipped with the sauce to appreciate it. The peas tastes fresh too. A big winner this. 

We actually arrived at Betty's at 5.40pm and was done with our meal by 6.20pm. That was how hungry and of course how delicious the food was. On another note, the restaurant is usually packed  from 6.30pm onwards so be sure to reach there earlier!

Here is Si Comot during the meal *nyum*

And as usual, let's all go to Betty's together yea!!

T3H Funn13s @ Cafelicious

The gang wanted to visit Fat Spoon the other night and guess what? They decided to close at 10-freaking-PM. With grumpy people ranting and booing, we had to act quick before things got out of control.So, we made our way to Cafelicious - which was A Smart Move (TM). This was simply because 1) they were still open for business (duh!) AND 2) they sell cheap booze! The cozy atmosphere helps too. So here's some photos before the atmosphere became crazy.

Presenting to you our new resident photographer - ImmaBee (TM) and her pearly whites.

Amy App (TM) which started the LOLs.

Ok folks, as you all already know that we have a saying that goes something like this:

Now, hold on tight to your seats (especially upon the 3rd Person (TM)) and appreciate the artistry that unfolds.

Of quaint cafes

It was after clay pot chicken rice for dinner at PJ oldtown. Out and about on a Friday night, it felt too early to just return home immediately. Without a destination in mind and bored with the usual kopitiams/coffee outlets, we were in search of a drinking place hoping for something different.

We did not have to drive for long before discovering this cafe at Damansara Uptown called - Fat Spoon. As soon as I stepped into it, I loved that it has its own identity, design and atmosphere - very unique.

Before entering the premise, it already has a hint of quirkiness from the onset...but in a comfortable way of course.

This here is the menu. It brought back memories of my childhood where my mother taught me English with this series. I think she did a good job.

The view from where I was seated was rather interesting. A typical classroom blackboard, a bare cement kitchen top and a retro color painted Ikea study table.

To the right side of my rear, check out these old school furnitures. The owners really took time to retrofit this outlet. Pretty amazing that it is so 70s/80s.

Directly behind me was this table, although you cannot see it from here, was made out of one of those foot powered sewing machines from ages ago. The grill right beside the table must have been extracted from some old houses too. What was really nostalgic is the design on the top of the wall - the rectangular with a diamond shape in the center. That was what my house used to have in Kuantan and smaller birds could fly into the house through that!

The hot chocolate - generous with chocolate powder, creamy and a little sweet.

The latte - as you know it.

A bunch of people who added some cozy atmosphere to the place. Notice the hanging decor, quirky!

The bill was presented as a bookmark. A funky and good use of unwanted books.

Check out Fat Spoon some time, it has WiFi too! Closed on Saturdays though...bummer.
