Of Flour & Vegetables

Had Vegetarian for dinner...
NOTE : V-E-G-E-T-A-R-I-A-N (:

At Nanking Vegetarian Restaurant o.O

Alright..This is kinda hard to explain..mmhm..
So I went to a Vegetarian Restaurant to eat MEAT..
uhm..MEAT made of Flour & Vegetables..
Well..I can assure you carnivores out there, that the Vegetarian Meat is wayy better than some ORIGINAL Meat product served at certain high-end restaurants..

Orders : Curry Mutton, some Abalone thingy, Thai Style Chicken With Lemongrass

Curry Mutton was awesomeee (:
Abalone-y was greatt (:
Chicken was so-so :/

But all in all, the taste was above expectations for food made of simple vegetables..oh..and flour, of course..
FLOUR indeed..

Going Strong

I LOST MY TELEPHONE NUMBER ; CAN I HAVE YOURS?

Yesterday , 28 Aug 09

Destination : Curve
Objective : Movie & Shopping (:

The cinema was EMPTY, except for us. So WE had the ENTIRE cinema to ourselves (:
Ended up lying on the Couple Sits, watching this good-for-nothing movie.
THE JOKES WEREN'T EVEN HALF FUNNY !

Recommendation : Terrible .. If you hate comedies, don't watch it ; If you love comedies, don't watch it either ..
1 / 5

The trip to Curve was..VERY interesting (:

THIS SHIRT WOULD LOOK GREAT ON YOUR FLOOR

x)

Back from Curve, found out that we had to do TWO Kerja Amal for Moral :/

AND IT'S ONLY ONE (1) FRIGGIN' MARK PER KERJA AMAL
Goodness me

Sho-Gun(ned) Down

Bro took off to Indonesia today..AGAIN..
his girlfriend has been posted there for 6 months..so..
a trip to Indonesia becomes a monthly affair for him (:
haihh LOVEBIRDS :D

as if to..uhh..celebrate his..absence from home (mind you, I wanted to use departure but it sounds like as if he died)..mum brought me to OU..
O-kayy..no biggie, right?
Wait 'till you see the next part ...

WE WENT TO EAT ......

UH-UH ...
THE Shogun (:

See, I've been dying to eat at that place ...

So..at 12.50, we stepped into the restaurant and it was already PACKED (:
After settling down with some Ocha, off we went to get some FOOD :D
And what a surprise I got ...
See, I've always thought Shogun was a JAPANESE buffet restaurant..
uh-uh it appears I was wrong..
Shogun has a W-I-D-E range of choices...
and I mean W-I-D-E in BOLD CAPITAL LETTERS
From Tempura to Sushi, Fried Rice to Spaghetti, Shark's Fin to Miso Soup, Tomyam in Thai Style to Salads, Hong Kong Dim Sum to Beijing Peking Duck, Nescafe to Ginseng Tea, Ice-creams to Cakes & Puddings ...
You name it, they've got it..
So..this is supposed to be GOOD, right?

err...NOPE...not good..
so..on with the story, after delightfully taking 3 plates full of stuff and a cup of Iced Lemon Tea, I sat down and started savouring my meal
mmhm..just one word...
the food was...
BAD
:(

I don't know what to say..but the taste I was looking for just ain't there..
Alright FINE the Teriyaki Chicken was okayy..but that's about it..
OH WELL ALRIGHT the Nescafe and Chocolate Cake were pretty good ..
but Seriously?
this place is packed with people day in day out, I'd expect something wayy better than this :/

The pricing is ... I guess..value for money as you get quite a variety of food choices..
For Monday to Friday, Lunch is at RM43++(with a 35% discount) ; Dinner is at RM58++(with a 30% discount)
Weekends, Lunch is at RM48++ ; Dinner is at RM60++ [no discount]

Shogun @ One Utama
Food Quality : 2 / 5
Food Variety : 5 / 5
Recommendation : For all-round eaters with money in their pockets, go ahead o.O

Ahh..should I also mention
I met almost the ENTIRE WORLD at OU
mmhm..let's just say..today's not about who's in OU
it's more of..who's NOT in OU
LOL
Maybelle, Lee Min, Soo Ann, Lin Lei, Mior (没有), Maverick, Thien Yik ...
Alright alright you get the point (:

Ohh in case you were wondering about the emptiness of my blog, I'm currently looking for some photos..so..rest assured..I'll defo make it more .. COLOURFUL .. Okay, Jescee?

Oh..and for the "posted by Khai Jett" thingy below every post, anyone knows how to change it?
Please leave a comment to..uhh..enlighten me (:
Thanky

Well, time for me to finish up my Chinese Folio thingy..

Cheers !

UP (:

Destination : The Curve
Objective : Lunch & UP (:

Had Sutra for lunch..
They had this Set Lunch Promo..Buy 1 set, get another set free (:

Order : Thai Style Fried Chicken, Kangkung Belacan, Omelet & Steam Fragrance Rice

The food was good, albeit it came in horrendously small portions..Not surprising though, as it is EXTREMELY RARE that you see a "Buy 1 Free 1" Promo in a Fine Dining Cuisine :D

Chicken tasted awesome..A tad bit hard and a serious lack of MEAT, but great nonetheless..
Kangkung was..a 'lil..extraordinary..you'd need to try it for yourself..it just..tasted different from our run-of-the-mill kangkung belacan.
Pre-meal, we were served with some keropok appetizer thingy..
Tasted good and crispy (:
Ahh..let's talk about their Ice Water..
As 'tho it is now a trend to place lemon slices in ice water to..uhh..freshen things up,
DON'T LAH PUT UNTIL IT TASTES LIKE LEMON WATER !

Mmhm, providing you can ignore the Food Portion and icky Ice Water, Sutra definitely gets my thumbs-up :D
Go try it! But beware, without the Lunch Promo, their food prices would reduce your wallet to feathers xP

Sutra @ Curve ; http://www.sanctuaryrestoclub.com/menu.html
Food Quality : 4 / 5
Service : 4 / 5
Ambiance : 5 / 5
Recommendation : Good food, good food indeed (:

Now, let us move on to ...


Ahh..all the hype surrounding it..
Its Critics Review and U.S. Box Office trashed Harry Potter 6 & G.I. Joe...
Question is..does it live up to its "billing" as (As I've mentioned in my earlier post)
BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR / BEST EVER DISNEY PIXAR MOVIE?

Sorry to disappoint, folks, but the answer is a categorical NO ...
Best Movie Of The Year..perhaps, perhaps..But do note, that the movies produced this year have been abysmal and wayyy below average :/
Transformers, HP6 ... None of 'em rocked my socks off..in fact, they didn't even feel the fabric of my sock..
Neway, UP - Best Ever Disney Pixar Movie?
nahh
Bug's Life, Finding Nemo, Ratatouille were wayy better o.O

The storyline of UP ain't bad..
It's not just a flying-away-in-a-house-magically-lifted-by-balloons thingy
Somehow somewhat it contains hidden lessons, about loyalty, determination, friendship, ambition ... as all Pixar movies do (:

No, it's not that..
The idea was good..
Unfortunately, the execution wasn't..
I was left wondering, at the end, what were the 3-D Glasses (which cost 5 bucks each, mind you!) for..
The graphics weren't at all amazing
Great sceneries, promised by 3-D Tech, were nowhere to be seen..

The movie itself ain't bad, but my experience was defo ruined by the pre-movie hype..
Definitely not a bad movie (it's Pixar, duh!), but certainly over-rated

Recommendation :
Go ahead..but 3-D is definitely not recommended
3 / 5

Cheers !

Debut Offering

I am Khai Jett, Lee
THIS, is my THIRD blog site (:
I'm reaallyyy hoping, this time, it works for me...

Due to..uhh..unforeseen circumstances, I sort of screwed my two previous blogs..
There they are now, lying around, long forgotten, dreadfully abandoned.

So..due to a..sudden rush of renewed interest, here I am, struggling to create a new (and I hope, final) blog..
Trying to find the perfect designs and gadgets weren't easy..
You see, I spent
ONE HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY DOES YOUTUBE EMBED FOUR VIDEOS IN A ROW..
and
ANOTHER HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE YOUTUBE NOT EMBED FOUR VIDEOS IN A ROW..

Gave up soon after and decided to just use MixPod :D
Much easier..faster..
No video, though =/

Well..Am in a rush at the mo...
Mum's been rushing me to go showweerrrr
'CUZ IMMA GO WATCH UP, BAYYYBEHH (:

UP, brought to you, by Disney Pixarrrr :D

I'll be back later..with a first-hand review of the acclaimed
BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR & BEST EVER DISNEY PIXAR MOVIE o.O


Feels good to be back x)

Cheers !
