Michelangelo's @ Pavilion KL

F_020

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, commonly known as Michelangelo, an Italian Renaissance painter, sculptor,poet,architect and engineer who has earned prestige on his renowned artworks.So who does not know him? If you don't, you must have known this painting.
p/s: I do not know him but I know his painting :P

Or Statue of David (on the right) sculpted by Michelangelo too.

In its upscale outlets in Pavilion KL and Soho KL, dining chairs are all decked up with fully upholstered white or black fabric with the “M” signori embroidered on to each and the tables are laden with table cloths to give it a sense of exclusive dining.

Featuring black, white and silver, the décor is the perfect epitome of class and we were welcomed by the warm lighting and elegant interior design.

Michelangelo's might not serve the most authentic Italian cuisine in town, but it still offers an elegant and satisfying dining experience in a contemporary setting at affordable price. By judging this concept, I'm pretty certain lower-class like me is not being targeted as it caters to mainly upper-middle income consumers. In fact, I really enjoyed the dinner VERY MUCH! Great food and ambiance are the perfect combination for dating :)

Mille crêpe

F_009
Food Foundry @ Section 17, PJ

Hidden gem like this really deserves more advertising but I guess Food Foundry needs no commercial/advertisement at all as this is place is so well-known among food bloggers. Kim Leong and I had lil trouble in locating this lil hidden gem since we are orang-Klang, but afterall, the long journey was worthy.

Chocolate Mille Crepe

I actually wondered what on earth is Mille crêpe as posted by Yiling and not having a friend who knows what it is until I googled it.

A crêpe (English pronunciation: /ˈkreɪp/, French: [kʀɛp]; Breton: krampouezhenn) is a type of very thin pancake (usually made from wheat flour).

After eating uncountable times of pancakes, have you tried this very thin layers of pancakes with fresh & smooth custards? First bite feels like heaven, and so do second and third bite.

TO ARTHUR!

The night we turned to Carnivore AGAIN!

After having the overrated Hurricane Pork Ribs in Sydney, how could not crave it in my own country! It takes several months to hesitate on which restaurant should I try for the sake of pork ribs. Most of them looks ok-ok-lah, neither do the pictures look appealing. As I was looking for the restaurants to dine in, hallelujah, Yiling's food blog saved my day!

So it is, Bermuda & Onion for pork delights :)

Sorry Lern, camera doesn't like you! No wonder you were not being focused :P

F_005
Guinness Beer tastes much better than Heneiken or Carlberg as I don't like the taste of bitter.
p/s : Lern, cut down on Guiness Beer pls. You've been drinking alot in a week!

For some reason, I do not know why this glass of Grapefruit Juice has indeed turned out to be like Passionfruit Juice.

Wild Boar Fettucine

You know what's meatball or chicken fettucine, but Wild Boar Fettucine seriously hit my mind on how does it taste like. Very uniquely and scrumptiously done! I must say, I'd definitely recommend this to my momma and everyone!

Roasted Pork Belly served with bacons and white potatoes.

Pork Ribs was initially in my list but somehow gave it up cause both of us couldn't wallop everything. Anyhow, Bermuda & Onion absolutely deserves a return. I'll be back!

F_011
Now camera likes you cause you love the food!

Next, we adjourned to Taiwan Snowflakes @ SS15 for our dinner's closing ceremony, DESSERT! This dessert shop has somehow turned my prejudice upside down. I could still remember how empty this shop was when Jen, Zhen Wei and I were the first customer. It was COMPLETELY EMPTY! Even a group of girls had to whispered a lil' before deciding on trying it. And hence, I said to Jen, "Jen, once you come back from States, this shop would definitely close down. So better eat more la!"

Turns out, people have been telling me how crowded this dessert shop is when I was back to Sydney. This is totally UNBELIEVABLE!

F_015
Now, I went back for second try and eventually get addicted to the chewy taro balls.

F_016

Sad but true, Lern doesn't like it! Snowflakes should ban him from entering :P

BE WARNED : Insanely Addictive!

Doodle Jump, a simple game that only requires you to tilt to move left or right or tap the screen to shoot could eventually make you feel the adrenaline rush and turns out, YOU'LL GET ADDICTED TO IT!

"If you value your life, never download the Doodle Jump app...so addicted."

Doodle Jump is an amazingly addictive and fun platform jumping game that lets you compete against other players around the world.
As you keep jumping higher and higher, the platforms start moving, the monsters, UFOs, black holes and other obstacles start appearing and the game gets progressively more challenging.

Doodle Jump
There's a simplified introductory on what you should avoid and shoot.

Doodle Jump
The brown platforms is half-broken so you need to avoid those. Meanwhile, platforms with springs send you jumping much higher.

Doodle Jump
I truly love this. Resembles helicopter which could bring you much higher, but not at faster speed.

Doodle Jump
Rocket is the best. Bring you higher and higher at the faster speed. But be aware, you could unfortunately land at a place with no platforms. Notice the yellow/red platforms, it booms very quickly so better be fast to jump higher.

Doodle Jump
And I freaking hate this sucking UFO cause it normally comes with white platforms that break immediately once you jump on it. It gets really frustrated once you reach above 20k.

Anyway,if you had already jailbroken your iPhone/iPod touch, now can download it for FREE! But my advice to you, don't play and drive!

Quick Take

Value: Medium

Would I Buy Again: Sure--it's a good game while waiting in line

Learning Curve: Learning curve? This game doesn't have one.

Who Is It For: Casual gamers, fans of non violent games

What I Like: I like the graphics--that's definately part of the appeal. The well pacing and good control also help too :)

What I Don’t: It can get kind of tricky--which does get frustrating.

Doodle Jump
My best score so far..

Now it's time to continue playing the game.......I could skip dinner just for doodle :)

Night at Lookout Point

Living in the home country for almost 21 years and knowing KL Tower and KLCC are main attraction (if only there were no terrorist), I have not really seen them at night except catching a glimpse while passing by KLCC at night. Right after living in Australia for almost a year, I took uncountable night shots of Opera House and never get bored of it. There was once I sat down at the side of harbour watching Opera House and I absolutely love the coffee shop situated in between of Harbour Bridge and Opera House. There goes the saying, killed two birds with a stone. So it's definitely a MUST to hit LookOut Point.

I may be or in fact I'm very much slower on writing a bird's eye view of the city, this should in fact be dedicated to Alice after hearing so much on me hoo-haa-ing KL city at night.

R_004
I've been hearing that Look Out Point is Small Genting and Look Out Point is near to Small Genting, but watever it is, the magnificent view matters the most.

R_001

Speaking of restaurants available up there, I was pretty certain on the prices they'd be charging considering the fact that it is the strategic location to see magnificent night view. Surprisingly, the price was quite reasonable i.e average of RM20-30 depending on your choices. After all, food doesn't play much role as there isn't lavish restaurant up here. According to Pink, LookOut Point actually refers to this ancient hut in which I had mistakenly thought that once I reach uphill, it is lookout point! Silly me.

R_002
Lesson of the day, never wear high heels as this is wooden and old hut and I was EXTREMELY scared that I would fall anytime.

R_003

I feel kinda irritated by the people there who constantly capture the view using mobile phone with FLASH! As a result, they couldn't snap KLCC night view and instead block my view! wtf!

Hence, we drove down to avoid the people congestion up there but somehow my camera decided to fail me :( Looks like it's time to splurge! (Hint to Mr Choo : I'm turning 21 in less than 2 months time :P)

They stole the limelight...

This is the best shot I can get given that I don't have any extra lens :)
