Vivo @ The Curve

While my bf and I were window shopping nearby The Curve, we stop by at Vivo to have our tea time. We are not sure what to eat but for sure, we wish to be in the air-conditioned place.

And here we are...something we have during our tea time. Erm, due to we dont want spend much money on that day, so I told my bf to share a drink together. Anyway, the drink comes up to be a tall glass and enough for 2 persons...

Classic Caesar Salad (RM8.80) - slices of green leaves toss with some hams and crispy bread in cube size with cheese powder. The salad is slighty salty due to the cheese powder. This is something very classic and simple salad...But i did tried one caesar salad at Delicious Cafe and I just love it so much...

Mango Delight (RM7.80) - a drink which is blended with mango juice and ice. You may choose with cream or without cream. We request for no cream...to make the drink more light and refreshing ....

American Cheesecake (RM5.80) - a small slice of cheesecake to end our tea time. The cheese is quite cheesy and the same time, very lemony taste too. But too the sweet lemony tasre... Quite nice actually but i found this is more good if have a cup of tea / coffee to go with this cheese cake...

Anyway, our tea time ended quite fast and continue our shopping on that day...Beside cakes and salad, they do served pizzas and some other snacks...

Each A Cup


Last weekend, the weather is so hot that i would love to spend most of my time in the shopping mall. To be honest, most of the time, i would just window shopping while waiting to get into cinema at GSC, Tropicana Mall...if there is any movie which interests me. Anyway, once i have bought the movie ticket, i quickly find a place for a cold and icy drink..

And here i come to a small corner nearby the Carrefour. The name of the shop is cute "Each a Cup"....Yes, there are selling something like those ice blended bubble tea. Based on a leaflet, there do mentioned they have been doing their business since Year 1999 and there are many outlets being opened in Singapore, Taiwan , Malaysia & Indonesia. And they have been rated 5 stars by The New Paper in Singapore (for Year 2001, 2002,2003,2004)

You also can see from the shop :
- They are using Hotel grade concentrated fruit juice which taste better and natural , but not syrup or powder.
- Their tea is genuine and natural, fresh and daily brewed from high grade tea sprout rich in Vitamin C and antioxidant
-Their coffee is high quality product from South America
-And their Chocolate is one of the finest from France.

There are many flavour to choose from and im quite hesitate when come to choosing. Anyway, im sharing with my bf, so i just can choose 1 flavour only.

Drinks collect at this corner...

Pick your own color straw...lol


And i have chosen the Mocha Ice Blended(RM5.90). Erm, the drink is quite nice but like not so sweet. I wish it could be sweeter..haha...im a person who love sweet thing...Anyway, is a nice drink especially for hot weather...Yup, the drink is quite natural...not like those using powder, to be honest...and added in some melted chocolate ...hehe.

Do have a try if you are there, if i pass by there, i think i would go there to try other flavour too..

Tenji Japanese Buffet Restaurant

Im sure many of us has been very crazy about the buffet in Tenji since last year. It is located at SohoKL which my bf told me is quite a high class place...hehe..I saw many cafe / restaurant has opened their outlet there and it looks like very classy too...Yeah, I know la..Im a bit late to blog about this buffet. What to do?? I very seldom go there and dont think my bf will bring me there unless for special occasions.

So, this time I have the chance because I will be celebrating my bf 's birthday at Tenji...Let him fat fat...haha.....but anyway, he is boss of the day....and Im following order...because he is the one who wanted to go there. So few days before the buffet, I have made the reservation for 2 persons for dinner. Currently their ongoing dinner promotion is same as in the March promotion...

1st diner is RM88++
2nd diner would be RM28.80++

The dinner buffet started at 6pm -9.30pm

We reached there on time. We were guided to the table for 2 person. One bad impression is I sat on a wet chair...Can you imagine it?? When i sat on it, it is nothing..but when longer time + pressures...the chair got water stains...I suspect they wash the chair cushion but it is not fully dry...So damn paiseh that time as i was wearing skirt...my bf asked a staff to change it and i sit for a while till my skirt dry...Lucky my skirt easily to dry up...Then after a while my bf also felt his chairs also wet. The end, he change the chair himself. He is lucky because he is wearing jeans so the wet is not so noticeable.

Anyway, is my bf 's birthday. I will not spoil the beautiful day...Me and my bf walked around to see what we can have ...

OSIM uKimono Mini

hehe...this is what I was mentioning earlier about my new "toy"...haha...is an OSIM uKimono Mini. It is my early birthday gift from my bf this year...ya hoo.....Finally I get it. Actually my bf promise to bring me to choose the color I like. It comes with 3 colors : Purple, Red & Orange. The price in the market now is RM298 for one.

The Packaging box

I got my red OSIM uKimono Mini...comes with adapter, a nice bag to prevent from dust and extention "belt" etc...

Infomation about uKimono Mini

**Mostly the information is based on my own understanding and refering to the manual book and packaging box**


What is OSIM uKimono Mini ??

The OSIM uKimono Mini is ergonomically designed to fit our arm, calf and thigh. It utilises Osimotion massage technology to help us to shape and tone those problem areas in the comfort of our home.

Osimotion Technology
Most of us would have flabby arms or thigh and this sometimes making us feel fat due to the area losing it shape. The OSIM uKimono Mini uses oscillating massage technology to help tone those problems area. The oscillating motion in OSIM uKimono Mini is different from the usual conventional devices which merely rely on vibration.

Adjustable Intensity At Our Fingertips
The OSIM uKimono Mini is built in with a control panel and we can adjust the intensity of the massage. There are 5 different massage intensities for different toning or massage needs. A low intensity massage stimulates blood circulation while a high intensity massage soothes fatigue and tones our muscles.. hehe...fyi, I uses low intensity on my arm and calf while high intensity on my thigh because I felt my thigh have more fats and is more problematic..haha...need more pressures to shape it better...haha...

Designed for Better Fit and Coverage
It is inspired by the traditional Japanese kimono, the OSIM uKimono Mini blends fashionable design with functionality to ensure ergonomic fit and maximum coverage for the problems area.

I have massaged each problem areas for about 10min and I tried not to do more than 30min in an area because it might hurt our muscle... First time usage, try using a low intensity to make yourself comfortable with it. And then only continue with a higher intensity. I was advised not to use the uKimono Mini more than 30min. It need to put rest to let it cool down a while and to avoid overheat.

I have been using for few days and dont see much improvement. I think maybe I need to work for about few months to see the result. One more thing, I had experienced some itchiness when the uKimono is moving. Checked on the manual book it is due to acclimatisation effect of the body to the vibration motion. But now, im used with it already..

OSIM uKimono Mini is available in any OSIM outlet in Malaysia. For best result, for sure they recommended us to purchase also the OSIM uKimono which specifically for slimming our tummy and butt too...that one cost about RM799 but my bf do not have that budget lol...so just buy a mini 1 ....Im also very happy lol..

Pitstop One Cafe

Yesterday while we have some time before our movie, we went to have our dinner nearby SS17. There is a quite new cafe being open for some time but i never really get to have chance to have my meal there. I think the reasons they opened there is due to the place is consider student areas. At a corner, i saw there are a lot of boards games being display...Erm, i saw like need to pay to play it...Anyway, just my bf and I, so not interest for the games...we just want to fill our tummy ...lol


Our drinks :

Honey Milk (RM4.90) - something which i felt i wont try it but i know milk and honey is good for our skins...haha..my bf order this. It actually milk being boiled and add in honey...become sweet and milky...

Honey Peach Tea - I love drinking tea actually. ..Any tea which is fruity or "flowery"...hehe...I got the habit that every noon, i will have a cup of green tea..It will make your mood feel nice and relaxing...and good for losing weight too..this drink is included in the nasi lemak set below.
Our meals :

Nasi Lemak Pitstop (RM12.90) - it is actually a set meal which included a drink. There are few other choice of drinks either cold or hot. The nasi lemak set is quite big portion. The plate is set with a rice, a big chicken drumstick...some sambal, ikan bilis, kacang , 1/2 pc of boiled egg, some "acar"- sweet and sour vegetable etc...I share it wit my bf..haha..
Tom Yam Vermicelli (RM9.90) - The soup still ok. Not too spicy but same have the sour tom yam taste...I add some onto my nasi lemak rice..haha..taste quite nice too... But as for my bf, he would prefer it to be more spicy...The portion is not as big as the nasi lemak...

Total bill is RM29.10 including service charge (5%).

I choose the set meal which i think it is more affordable. And it is good if you got student ID card because you can get discount for dining there...

Homemade Fish Head Noodle

Erm, quite busy lately that make me quite lazy to blog it..and one more thing, i have new "toy" to play with..haha...will blog it out soon...Last weekend, my bf and I suppose to have " pan mee" but somehow we saw this restaurant and decided to have a try. Lately my bf just want to have something light for dinner..wanna keep fit lol..

That time is still early whether not much customers walk in for dinner. And we begin to see the menu. Quite funny..most of the waitress there are mandarin speaking where the way they speak is more really like they came from China. Anyway, we are there for their food.
The place looks clean and bright due to their are using white and green to represent each of the interior or accesories in the restaurant...look so greeny at the same time too..But i found out, there are still mosquito hiding below the table...Why those mosquitoes never let me go ??? Do you knw, no matter where i go, i sure bitten by mosquito...i hate this!!

So, since their main dish is fish head noodle...for sure my bf would love to try it. They do served a lot of different kind of fish head noodle..when you saw their menu, then you would really understand.

My bf go for the normal Fish Head Noodle and with added milk. The presentation of the food is nice and to be honest, there are quite generous as they give a lot of fish meat...One thing i dislike about fish head noodle is the fish meat served have a lot of bones...im not good in eating fish...Thats why i usually will ask for fish paste....Erm, for the taste, i feel it is quite ok for me but my bf complaint not enough wine being put on it..so, it taste simple rather than being homemade..haha...


Anyway, this time, im having something different from my bf which is the Black Pepper Udon with Chicken Meat....I quite like the peppery taste together with the udon mee. If they put more chicken breast meat, i think i would love it more.

Our side dishes of the day which is the Sze Chuen Style Eggplant. Actually this is just suit my bf's taste. Eggplants being cut into slices and fried . Then stir together with some meats and mushroom chunks...slightly spicy and taste good while it is still hot...And it is best to served with rice too...keke..too bad, we dont order any rice that time...

Overrall we are still ok with the dishes..Maybe when we saw the banner stating homemade fish head noodle, so we have a high expectation of it but after ordering, it look ordinary ...hehe...Anyway, this is my bf and I preferences, maybe the taste might suit you.. Just have a try...

A wallpaper which got many cute icons..

T-Bowl..i think is something represent the toilet bowl...The whole interior in the restaurant is full of toilet bowls....hey, dont think you can use any of the toilet bowl there...it cant be used it...If you really urgent to "do business"...pls go to the real washroom..haha...

Their menu...with a tooth brush(decoration purposes)..haha

A staff is arranging the table for us..Im sitting at the back of the bath tub...

So reaching there, the place is quite crowded already. Mostly all is too enjoy having such a cute concept. The 1st T-Bowl concept restaurant is actually located at Queensbay Mall, Penang. The 2nd one would be in Sungei Wang Plaza here. To be honest, it attracts quite a lot of those youngster and even me to try it...Anyway, im a person who love to try something new especially foods.

Beneath our table is the basin....with shower cap etc...

our chair....colorful toilet bowl...

So, below is our orders....Most of our dishes is served in a " toilet bowl" ....see below picture and you will understand ...lol

Lai Wan style Porridge - the porridge quite ok...but it might be salty to someone who cant accept it. The porridge have some slices of cuttlefish, crab meat stick, and with some springs onions...

Latte - a hot drink of the day but it looks like too sweet. My bf dont like it. I think i should order some ice blended but due to i have order a ice cream as dessert......Actually they do have many others colorful and icey drinks for you all to choose from.


Donut Delight - our dessert of the day..haha...and the thing which attracts me to try it...the ice cream texture is something like choc drink ice blended and presented it like a "shit" shape with a piece of wafer and biscuit on top and below...but this ice cream is quite nice, i love it and it just melt into ur mouth....There are still many other choice/ flavour for you all to try on...

Anyway, it is a nice place for friends gathering. I think the food served maybe normal but is just how they present the foods and drink to others which really an attraction to customers to try it.. I hope, i could go there to try their ice creams or maybe some snacks / spagetti...It should be a happy day...

So, now if someone ask you " You go eat sh!t lar"....then you dont angry oh..just say, I know a place where we can enjoy this cute "sh!t"....bring him/ her to this place and ask him/ her to pay for it...haha....Anyway, hope you enjoy the place there...
