Big Enough

I went there again with my spouse to share this big big breakfast recommended by PH and it was as nice as said. At MYR 29+ (10% service charge = MYR 31.90 nett) I would say that it is good value for money. My spouse ordered sunny side up eggs and I just ate 1 of the whites while he ate two yolks and 1 white. The 2 slices of pork belly bacon is crispy and thicker than those served by other eateries. The mushrooms and tomato that were underneath the sausage and bacon slices were tasty too.

As there were no greens on the plate of big breakfast, I ordered a salad (with 5 pieces of siu yuk - roast pork belly) to share with my spouse at the same price MYR 29+ (MYR 31.90 nett). I like that the dressing was served separately in a small saucer. It was a very big portion of greens and we took some time to finish it.

A rounded brunch at three little pigs and the big bad wolf at the Tropicana City Mall.

Must order cakes too to take advantage of the get 1 free promotion. A slice of chocolate walnut cake at MYR 12+ (MYR 13.20 nett).

A slice of mocha cake at the same price of MYR 13.20 nett but was foc due to the promotion. I kept half of the cakes for tea at home.

Mini christmas trees at the cake display counter.

We took advantage of the get 1 free coffee promotion too - Cafe Latte at MYR 9+ (MYR 9.90 nett) and Espresso at MYR 8+ (MYR 8.80 nett). The item with the lower price (Espresso) is foc due to the promotion. 

MYR 86.90 nett for a satisfying brunch.

Other promotions.

For those who drinks.

Laduree at Pavilion

I have eaten a few macarons in KL but always find them to be too sweet so I do not understand why they are so popular. Then I read that the best macarons are made by Laduree in France so I told myself that if I ever visit Paris again, I am going to try the macarons at Laduree.

Near the end of November this year, Laduree is finally available in KL at the Pavilion Mall so I do not need to fly to Paris to taste their macarons.

Standing in queue to buy the macarons as takeaways.

They sell other dainty pastries too.

I bought 5 macarons only so they were put into a paper bag for me.

Laduree (Paris) since 1862

My selection: Rose, Raspberry, Pistachio, Mocha and Chocolate. I like the Rose macaron the best because the rose taste is quite subtle and I can taste the almond in the two almond meringue biscuit discs which are very light in texture. So light that they disappear very quickly when in the mouth. So very quickly until my friend says that he did not even know that he has eaten it. The chocolate and mocha filling are very rich and creamy. I can detect raspberry fruit pieces in the filling of the raspberry macaron. Well I must say that they do indeed live up to their name.

Each macaron costs MYR 12 nett. I did not buy the macarons in the premium range that costs MYR 18 nett each. The macarons are also sold in pretty boxes with prices starting from MYR100 onwards. There is a small dining area for customers who prefer not to have takeaways. I will need to save up to enjoy the other pastries here. Till next time.

Colourful Decor

They were still setting it up when I was there previously.  Now everything is ready and shining brightly! Santa Claus flying in on his sledge with the reindeer. I believe there is a wishing well next to the green pavilion in the middle of the display.

"All I want for Christmas..." is the theme at The Curve.

Many people taking photos of the reindeer.

Very colourful. I managed to catch a singing and dancing performance at the pavilion with green roof.

Mr Fish at Starling Mall

Grouper Fillet Thin Mee Hoon in Clear Soup at MYR17.90++ (5% service charge and 6% GST) which is MYR19.95 nett. I like that there is quite a lot of greens (yin choy) in the bowl. 

6 pieces of thick Grouper Fillet which are so delicious! This noodle is now my favourite fish fillet noodle.

I have been to Mr Fish at Damansara Kim and now I can say that I have been to the one in the Starling Mall as well. Combo meals are not available but all the noodles are served with free drinks - a choice of pandan lemongrass drink or green tea drink and all of us selected the pandan lemon grass drink.

Add this that

One day, I decided to have economy fried noodles for breakfast. The noodles are not fried on order but are already fried in bulk and sold as is. As this fried noodle is sold by Kim Hung Nasi Lemak stall at Swee Hing coffee shop, I added one whole hard boiled egg, some curry potatoes and some acar (pickled vegetables). This whole dish costs MYR 6 nett. I kept half of everything for lunch and had a satisfying breakfast.

Mee Rebus

After reading about mee jawa at Nancy's blog and mee rebus at STP's blog, I went in search of them and found the above - Mee Rebus at MYR 12.50+ (5% service charge = MYR 13.15 nett). It has half a hard boiled egg, some vegetables, potatoes, squid, tofu and very thick gravy.

A close up look at the pieces of squid.

See how thick the gravy is. I shared this plate of mee rebus with my friend and we finished eating all the gravy.

Penang Flavours in One Utama is located opposite Old Siam eatery.
