Time’s running out…

It had been way over a week since the schools here closed for the holidays and even though we were not planning on going anywhere, it was never our intention to just let the days slip by, staying at home. Well, that was what was going on though not by choice – we were all unwell so liked it or not, we just did not go out all this while.

Thankfully, we had more or less recovered and did manage to venture out quite a bit to go to some place nice for something to eat. Well, my girl was here not too long ago with her colleagues and she was very impressed by what they had. That was why she could not wait to go back there again to see what other nice things they had on their menu.

She ordered their cheezy mushroom bacon pizza (RM34.00)…

…which was pretty good but I do feel that I had some nicer pizzas elsewhere in town.

We shared the salted egg yolk coated calamari fritti (RM19.00)…

…and I did try a little bit. Yes, it was very nice but there was just so much that I could handle and after a while, I was feeling kind of jelak (cloy) and I simply couldn’t manage anymore.

My missus has their teriyaki chicken bowl (22.00)…

…which came with this complimentary seaweed soup…

She did not say much about it so I guess it was all right.

For myself, I picked the stewed beef Benedict (RM29.00)…

…that I thought was very nicely done, beautifully presented…

The poached egg was absolutely perfect…

…though I can’t say that I enjoyed the chunks of stewed beef a lot. Perhaps my taste buds had not fully recovered yet and were acting up on me.

All in all, it was a pleasant enough lunch – nice place, great service even though I would not say that what we had would get us running back for more. The total for all the we had, inclusive of drinks, came up to RM126.90 which did not come as a surprise seeing how it was a somewhat upscale classy place indeed.
