#118 Palsaik, Sae Ma Eul and A Pie Thing

Ootd: Cropped tank + Floral skirt from Factorie, denim jacket from Brands Outlet.

Well, I came across this post seated in the draft section and realizing that this is one longggg overdue post, makes me feel rather shitty. Hahaha.

Us girls planned to go on a food-hunt spontaneously and since we brought our Korean friend along, we all thought why not bring her to Mont Kiara which is known to be a Korean-town in Malaysia. And we went to Damansara Uptown for some desserts after that and I clearly remembered t'was raining cats and dogs. I had a lot of fun back then. Kinda miss hanging out with this bunch already.

So anyhoo, instead of a word-lengthy post, I'm gonna keep it real short and let the pictures do its talking. So, scrooooooll awaaaay!

#109 La Risata Italian Restaurant @ Ampang, KL

I am backkk! I am sorry for the long hiatus. I know I always happen to abandon my blog so I have came to a solution where I think it is better to work on an Instagram account whereby I get to post and share about the places I dine in/visited and make a short description on it's location, business hours and the price of the food and beverages. I find it really convenient and way easier to maintain an Insta account compared to blogging because blogging takes a lot of time (that's why i'm still ever so impressed with people who can manage their time so well for blogging) soooo, feel free to follow and keep up with LiveLoveEattt on Insta!!

Anyhoo, I decided to bring my baby to La Risata for dinner on his birthday since i've came across plenty of good reviews 'bout this place.

Mocktail of the day at only RM18++

Antipasti Misti platter consists of deep fried calamari rings, grilled mushroom, garlic crostini ith chicken liver pate and beef carpaccio @ RM42.

Wood fired oven roasted beef ribs in a reduction of red wine sauce on a bed of beautifully mashed potatoes @ RM45

The birthday boy turned 23! (2 months ago lol!)

And it was my first time trying to throw a mini birthday surprise for a guy, what more for the man I love. I really need to thank La Risata's team service for helping me out with this. It wouldn't have been a perfect surprise without their help and i'm really glad that my lover has no clue about the mini surprise. It was a hearty dining experience and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone :)

#96 Tujo @ Ascott, Kuala Lumpur

#selfie? haha.

My best friend (Lyn) and I were born on the same date, month and year and it's a pleasure to be able to meet someone who shares the same birthday with you. Don't you think? We are friends since Form 2 (14 y/o) and we've been celebrating our birthdays together ever since. The fact that she is leaving for UK to further her studies this year got us thinking that we should make an advanced birthday celebration since she's leaving before our actual birthday. 

Sooooo, I suggested Tujo.

My #ootn - 3 floor inspired dress.

View from where we sat that day.

The jakoons (Lyn and I) thought that we'd have to splurge and go broke on this birthday celebration 'cause I suggested to head down to KL for dinner, but to our surprise, everything was priced pretty reasonably. We actually thought it'd cost about RM50/plate lol.

Meet this exceedingly beautiful, fine young lady, Lyn.

Ordered myself a glass of Apple Mint Cooler @ RM17

You might think that RM17 for a drink is too much, but upon tasting it, you'll know that it's worth paying for that price ;)

Tujo Grilled Burger @ RM30

Lyn got herself the beef burger - home made mouth-watering beef patty, aged cheddar melt, bacon and egg with potato wedges and salad as sides.

Seafood risotto @ RM33

Arborio rice that was cooked to al-dente in a good dose of tomato broth, basil pesto and mixed seafood such as prawns, calamari, mussels and scallop. I don't think i've missed anything out. Sorry if I did.

And how is it a birthday celebration if there's no desserts or a cake in precise, right? 

Lava cake with a scoop of Haagen Dazs's vanilla ice-cream @ RM15.

I honestly don't think it's worth paying RM15 for something this small. Or at least it's not satisfying enough for a sweet-tooth like us. Despite that, it tastes pretty good.

A mandatory selfie with the "birthday lava cake" hahaha!

It was a splendid pre-birthday night out with the best friend and it's one of the most memorable one with her. Top-notch food + cozy and romantic ambiance + super amazing companion = a perfect date. 

She's in the UK now, and encountering a (perhaps) once in a lifetime studying experience with total strangers in a completely new environment. I've been missing her the minute she left and as gay as it may sounds, I had a hard time adapting to the fact that she's not around anymore until the next time I see her, which is next year. I was so used to having her around and being able to call her out whenever because we live in the same housing area. So we meet every single week. And no, we aren't lesbians -.- hahah!

It's hard to find true friends and I swear that is rare. So, appreciate those who love and care for you whilst they're still around ;)

#88 Nana's Green Tea @ The Gardens, Mid Valley

There are too many bad happenings this year. For my family, I and the world. I couldn't believe i'm losing another family member after having to go through my hero's four years ago. The same old feeling came back. My heart shattered the moment I woke up to such heart-breaking news this early morning. We all knew the time is near, we may be ready to hear it, but none of us were ready to face it. Life, huh?

I'm here to make an update to keep my mind off things. So.. yeah.

There was a day where my best friend came to pick me up from my Uni 'cause I had four hours of break, and headed to Mid Valley. It was a total impromptu visit to Nana's Green Tea @ The Gardens, Mid Valley. We didn't know where to go at first until Lyn suggested to go to Mid Valley 'cause she had something to do in Mid Valley that day. 

Matcha Nama Chocolat Parfait @ RM19.80

Let me introduce you to this oh-so-toothsome Matcha Nama Chocolat Parfait which I'd give an honest verdict of 8.5/10! Seriously. It was by far the best matcha parfait i've ever had in my 20 years of living. I'd definitely return for more of that despite pricey. But i'm telling you, its worth it! 

Chicken Karaage Curry Udon @ RM16.80

Chewy yummy udon noodles that was cooked to almost perfection, immersed in a bed of Japanese curry with a few pieces of chicken karaage and topped off with some corns and spring onions. Loving this dish the most!

Matcha Chocolate Latte

Chicken Karaage Salad

It was my best friend's choice, some pieces of chicken karaage with hard-boiled eggs, topped over with a bowl of fresh, healthy greens and having the beautiful dressing drizzled on top of it.

If you're the kind of person who loveeeees indulging Japanese cuisine + a matcha lover, then this would probably be one of the best restaurant to dine in! Like, you wouldn't need to think twice about it (except that it's slightlyyyyy expensive) but I still think it worth every single penny that I paid. Nana does their desserts better than their mains albeit the curry udon was great. Not too sure 'bout the rest of their dishes, but I bet their other dishes wouldn't taste too bad.

Overall verdict: 7/10.

#69 Bro's birthday celebration @ Black Market, KL

Hellooooooooo! How have you all been? And geez, how long has it been since my last log in and make an update? Hahaha. I'm so glad that my final semester has come to an end and i'm on holiday right now. In other words, more food post coming right up!

So, my family and I decided to have our dinner at Black Market, Kuala Lumpur on a Thursday night to celebrate my eldest brother's birthday. It could get a little tricky looking for this place 'cause there's two branches in KL but fret not, this one is located right beside the well-known Chateau de Caffeinees.

I'm not sure if this is cod or sea bass. Didn't notice the description in the menu! T.T

Tri-pork fried rice

Grilled pork shoulder

Linguine in white sauce, topped with egg and black truffles pate

Pigs in the blanket. Really disappointed with this one though.

I didn't know that Black Market serves food in Asian style until the food arrived that night. Should have done a little more research the next time I dine in a place for food. I'd rate this place a 5 out of 10. Not because the food didn't taste good but I felt like there's something missing 'bout the way the food was served. Just a personal preference, so, zero offense.
