Tom, Dick & Harry's @ pavilion

All breakies order comes with a glass of juice and refillable coffee/tea. and the pricing is nett..isn't that great ?!!!
We were glad that we stopped by here the other day. I like the simple breakfast made with that home made touch.  On top of the food, I like the happy bustling atmosphere.




The coffee was your typical coffee.


Big breakfast (RM26)- 2 sunny side up, grilled pork sausages, bacon, baked beans, saute mushroom, fresh grilled tomatoes, golden hash brown with bread and butter (For additional awesomeness upgrade to crispy crunchy bacon -RM3 only). Delicious and very filling.


Banana pan cakes (RM16) - Yummylicious layes of pan cakes filled with sweet chocolate chips, sundried raisins and banana bits, dusted in cinnaman sugar, served with syrup, caramalised bananas and vanilla ice cream.





 I tried new menu item on my second visit, it was great as well. I suppose everything on the menu is good, come and try it yourself if you don't believe it.



Steak and Eggs Breakie (RM28) - Tender Grain fed Ribeye steak served with sunny side up, golden hash brown, saute mushrooms and fresh grilled tomatoes, with beefy brown gravy on the side.


I applaud them from keeping their food in so high quality but I wasn't uberly impressed because I'm sort of used to it..LOL

Monte's restaurant & wine bar

Monte's Restaurant & Wine Bar has been a favorite among diners for more than a decade. 
We tried this welcoming little place recently and had a very pleasant dining experience. The atmosphere is relaxed and staff can't do enough.





Mocktail Monte's dream (RM13) - delightful combination of pineapple + orange +?



Escargots (RM19/ half dozen)- baked and basted in Chablis and garlic sauce, very buttery and garlicky. Above average standard




Mango and shrimp cocktail (RM19) - served with garden fresh greens. It was a joy to eat this appetizer before main.



Pan seared cod (RM 58) - serve with ratatouille and chermoula dressing. Looks and tastes fabulous.



Spaghetti marinara (RM 31) - combination of seafood, garlic and tomato sauce. It just tasted OK to me, not terrible but not up to expectation.


It is a classic restaurant worth a visit. Service is good, not too attentive which annoys me.

The price wasn't too bad either. Perhaps not an every week kind of price, but easily a once a month treat kind of price.
I'll definitely say the worst thing about this restaurant  is trying to decide what you want to eat. Charbroiled ostrich available for RM39 is a must try !

Decanter @ Section17

Having heard mixed reviews about decanter, finally make it to this restaurant, such a great suburban find.
It's a cool little place which tucked away in a side street. Everyone should be able to find something from the extensive menu.
The place filled up after about 8 pm with a very jolly crowd of mostly families. We loved the hearty but thoughtfully-presented food here, you will walk out feeling full.

The waiting staff were friendly and helpful but it was what came out of the kitchen that makes this place special.
We had Smoked salmon with cheese and anchovies for starter which was really nice.
Jolie ordered the grilled chicken  and recommended it very highly.
I had the salmon steak. It was a basic dish but the accompanying vegetables were delicious and the generous portion make it special.

There is a lovely outdoor seating area as well

P.S. Finding street parking was very easy, always a bonus!

Burger Junkyard @ Kota Damansara

A new burger joint in Kota Damansara. You shouldn't come here expecting a Michelin Star quality, but you should come here expecting a good food at a fair price.
The place is small and the quality of the food is pretty much exactly what you'd expect.
As we walked in we were greeted by a nice and helpful guy with introducing their house specialty.

The burgers were full of all the yummy fixings. The fries were your standard thin cut fries but good anyway. It's a shame they are only open from 6pm-10pm. And they only offer soft drinks, a perfect companion to the burger, I suppose.








Balsamic beefing onion (15.90)- had a juicy and thick patty, well made, and the caramalized onion went well with it. Look at the oozy cheese, don't you wanna give them a try...



Brooklyn Burger (RM15.90)- lots of meat, lots of cheese, lots of toppings. and I love the bread, it made the burger even better


There is no way to take a bite due to it's contents.

TWG @ pavilion (2)

TWG has been flooded with patrons everytime I passed by since it opened not long ago. I believe the long queue waiting outside the restaurant caught everyone attention and reminded me of how much I enjoyed my last visit to TWG
This time round, I felt the tables were too close together and you can hear what your neighbour are going to eat and who they are arguing with at work. However, the atmosphere is still great.

We ordered Fortune afternoon set again as I thought it's good deal for such a good quality 3 tiered afternoon set at RM55 . We picked green tea mousse instead of chocolate cake which was too sweet for my liking on my first visit. Green tea mousse cake was very much better, in fact very good!

The only thing that I was not happy with was in the tea. I like the 'big' teapot covered with a gold plated warmer. Sure looks can be deceiving but when only 2 and a bit cups are obtained from then whole pot which I might add is nonrefillable....I must say it's too expensive for too little (and of course I could barely taste the diluted tea after a refill.)
.









Kissable macaron



Wagyu beef burger ( RM43) - grilled wagyu burger with lettuce, tomato and emmental cheese topped with cocktail sauce and served on a homemade bun, accompanied by matchstick potatoes and mesclum salad tossed in1837 green infused vinaigrette. It's moist, tender, juicy and irresistible.
