Ben's Grocer @ Publika

My mom called yesterday and asked if I wanted to join her for shopping day at Publika. OFCOURSE MOM!!!! It's been soooooooo long since we've went out together mom. (eventhough we see each other everyday when I drop my kids at your place) I kinda envy my younger siblings because they have more privilege of going out with my mom whenever they please. *sigh* I really miss going out with you mum! *sobs* *sobs*

Concourse area of Publika. They have some sort of flea market that Sunday

We went to Ben's grocer's for brunch. It's like your usual grocery store, but the stuff there are super expensive. Well, mainly because they cater imported stuff similar to Jaya Grocer or Cold Storage. If I have a hard to find ingredients for them western recipe, I know where to find 'em already. hehe.. Oh, another thing is, eventhough it's called a grocery store but they do have a small quaint cafe/eating spot in the middle of the store.

Food station
Good ol' burger and fries.
Various dishes! Next time I'm gonna try their quiche and lasagne.
Pizzzaaaa. It was okay. My son loves it~
This is what i had. Mocha and choco-banana-almond cake. Quite nice! ^^)b

We had cake, coffee, pizza and burger. It was okay. Nothing special. Next time, we might want to try the "grilled" stuff. That one looks tantalizing! You can pick your meat and ask the chef to cook for you, for an extra little bit of price ofcourse. I think it's still worth it. :)

DROOOOOLLLLSSS!!!!!! I LOVE MEAT!! Totally not made for vegetarian ahahaha!
The bomb!





Nice day going out.
We should do this again mom! ^^
Love you!

Nah, belanja selfie sikit. Hehe.. Baby girl not cooperating with mummy. =3=

A Night Out To MyBurgerLab@OUG!

Eversince I settled down, got married and have kids, it's really hard for me to go out at night and hang out with my friends. Firstly, because my responsibility now is geared more towards our little family. I wish to be there for my kids when they need me, and they need me a lot when they're still babies. You know, being a mum is never easy. Being a mother of two is even harder. It's never a breeze and there's hardly break for you! lol but the good thing is, I think I am getting the hang of it more than ever now. It takes a lot of compromise and patience with my husband, but all in all, usually everything went well after a little talk. :) Now that my youngest is older, she's less fussy and gets along better with my husband. That means, I can leave her (and her brother) alone with my husband sometimes at night and have some of my me-time with friends to recharge!
*^_^*

Tonight is one of those rare nights that I was able to hang out way past working hours. Yay! So my colleagues and I decided to go and try this burger place just 3 minutes drive from work. It's called MYBURGERLAB! We have been wanting to go since a while ago, but never got the chance. One of my colleague passed by the place during lunch time but it was closed. Then only we knew that it's only open for dinner.

We reached there around 8.30pm and it was packed! We came in a party of 6 and since the place is full of peepoz, we had to split tables. Oh well, it's not a big deal. Ordering was a bit confusing at first if you don't know what to order but lucky for us, their menu is huge ass on the wall. You can look at it and decide what you're gonna have while waiting in line the long queue.


The menu on the wall. This was on April 2015.
I heard they often change their menus base on events and stuff so do check out their specials!
Oh, the number on the top right of each boxes are the price. :-)

After ordering and paying, we were given a bill with a number. So just wait for them to call up the number and voila! You're ready to enjoy your meal. Which, usually isn't that long. >v<
And now, time to chow down!!

My friend's Say Cheese Burger. Yum!


My A+ Burger! OMG that sharp cheddar is awesome!

A colleague tried the Cthulu burger! I have to say it taste a little bit like sushi! XD;
This was back when there was a promo. It's Kaiju burger.


You can check out their menus from their website at myburgerlab.com
The prices are for ala-carte burger only. If you to add fries and bottomless soda, just add RM6.50. All prices are inclusive of GST. (based on the site, as per this review is written) So far, I had a pretty nice experience here. Would definitely go again! ^_^

Address :
8, Jalan Awan Hijau,
Taman OUG,
58200 Kuala Lumpur.
Opening Hours :
Tuesdays ~ Sundays
5:00PM ~ 10:15PM

Verdict:

Taste ★★★★☆
Quite unique and rich taste. I think they're really bold to try different ingredients things in their burger other than your usual meat patty, veges and cheese. Oh, their charcoal bun is soft! If you're into soft bread burgers, this is it)

Portion ★★☆☆☆
It's good enough for me, but most of my guy friends said the burger size is too little and not too fulfilling

Value ★★★☆☆
A bit on the pricey side but it's good that they give out free kids meal! ^^ Plus point for me as a parent of two kids haha

Ambiance ★★★★☆
Totally nice deco and cozy. Definitely cozy. A bit noisy since there are a lot of people

Halal Certified : Yes
The last time I went there, they displayed their halal certificate at the counter.
No pork or alcohol served, definitely.
OVERALL VERDICT : ★★★★☆








10 January 2015

May the new leaf be better

Hey..

So it's already the 10th day of the year 2015.
I've been meaning to update but I was either occupied with something else, or I don't feel like updating. More likely the later. Heheh.. 2014 has been quite a year for me, and for all Malaysians. For some weird reason, I felt like 2014 has brought us a lot of grief and misery.

The missing flight MH370 went away without a trace.
And the shot down of flight MH16.
And recently the missing Air Asia flight.
Somewhere in February till March, we have sever water shortage until the state government had to ration out water supply which causes a lot of inconvenience for us. It also taught us not to take things for granted and learn to save water.
And by the end of the year, the very bad flood hitting Malaysia's east coast.

To add more to the grieve, our beloved father had passed away on the morning of 24th December. He went away so sudden. He died at the age of 52 due to heart attack. We never knew he had it. Medical checkup shows that he had a very strong heart for his age (so says the doctor that conducted the tests), though his cholestrol level is quite high. He died while on his way back for a school reunion in Taiping. He died at the Tapah R&R. He died so sudden. I didn't manage to properly said good bye. I What's saddening is, a few weeks before he passed away, we had quite a big disagreement over something so trivial. I had said some bad things to him.

I am so sorry...
