Johnny Rockets @ The Curve

So we decided to go to The Curve for a change.

My sister heard of this place called Johnny Rockets where the entire layout was like a diner in the olden times,

WHO WOULD WANT TO MISS THE CHANCE TO TRY THAT OUT?!

So we made our way to Johnny Rockets - The Original Burger :P 

True enough, its layout was like those diners, they even had a JUKEBOX! :O

So they opened at 11am and we made it there quite early and had put our names on the waiting list. 

They opened the "diner" with a dance. ALL THE STAFF DANCED. TO A SONG. FROM THE JUKEBOX. 

It was a good start, I must say. A good way to get the customers all excited to try out the food!

They then started seating hungry customers who were on the waiting list, chronologically. 

We were number 13. After we heard the person before us being called, we waited for our turn. And waited. And waited. For half and hour. 

The worst part was that there were STILL empty seats. And sure enough, customers started complaining. They explained that this was their way of quality control because they are not a fast food restaurant, but half an hour. 

How did we know though, that we waited half an hour? Oh, they had a very good clock! Another performance was given at half hour intervals. Again, that was a good feature of theirs, but the least they could do was seat the people first. Instead of entertaining the crowd (they probably were entertaining the already seated ones but not the ones waiting), they should just fill up their booths first. 

So after the wait, we were finally seated. But because we were waiting in line for quite a while, we already decided what we wanted to eat.

Sis and I decided to share a milkshake and I decided to order their Bacon Cheddar burger. 

Again. Guess how long we waited for the food? Another half an hour. We watched another energetic performance from the staff and even though it was a catchy tune and dance, it was starting to get on the nerves. 

LUCKILY, the milkshake was DELICIOUS. There was just something about this milkshake that was really good, and it brought the excitement back up as we waited for the food. 

*Do note however, even though the service time was really slow, the service that the waiters give are really good. They were really friendly and were constantly smiling and helpful.

And my Bacon Cheddar Burger came not long after the milkshake! It was like a "Finally!! Can't wait to try!" moment. The waiter also drew a smiley face with ketchup on a dish for us to eat with our fries! :) Things were looking much better at this moment. 

I bit into it, it was good, but not as good as I thought. 

My opinion was that it was just a normal burger, and honestly for the price I was paying, it wasn't worth it. BurgerLab was probably more worth it. They did have something I have not tried in a burger before though, they used potato buns. 

The ratings I would give is: 

Service: 8/10 (the waiting time took points away)

Food: 6/10 

Price: 4/10

Overall: 6/10

It's not a place that I would frequently go to, but maybe once in a LONG while. If you have not tried it though, at least give it a shot. The experience of the staff dancing and the environment is something to look forward to!

You can find them at: G52, The Street, The Curve, Mutiara Damansara.

Holy Mama of Burgers :)

When I started college,

I started eating burgers more frequently. 

This was cause of the short breaks we had and the fact that we needed fast food T_T

College makes you fat. 

I blogged about Crayon Burger before...

and it was actually a real interesting burger experience.

So there was another popular burger joint in town,

and I was pretty sure almost everyone would've heard about it,

cuz I constantly saw people post on instagram. 

I wasn't able to try them out at first because:

1. I did not know where it was

2. I heard that it was real crowded and the queue is crazy T^T

But one fine night, after my Japanese class,

my parents and lil' sis wanted to try :B

Lucky me :DD 

This was the queue. It was till the outside of the shop. 

Can't say much about the space though :X

It was small.

Maybe when they earn enough they will make it bigger? :D

But the queue moved pretty fast so it didn't take a long time to order and there were also friendly staffs to help you pick out the burger of your choice when you are overwhelmed by the awesome looking menu. 

Seriously, 

you would feel like trying every single one of them out.

Took a picture of the wall while waiting for our burgers :D

It wasn't that long a wait either, 

the kitchen was moving quite fast despite the number of orders they were receiving. 

Just look at all the busy staffs

preparing those delicious burgers :')

We decided to have a take away because the place was already filled and there was no place you could just sit and eat. 

It was like being sardined between people you don't even know and all of you would be trying to enjoy the burger :B

And I was not disappointed. 

And this isn't due to the fact that I was hungry either,

because I already had my dinner when we bought this.

I ate it out of curiosity and gluttony. 

We ordered 2 "Beautiful Mess"'s, a "Kick in the Face" and an "A+" 

Beautiful Mess was definitely beautiful and a mess. 

With such beautiful burgers comes with "beautiful" prices. 

Nonetheless, it was a worthwhile investment :)

Definitely recommend to try them out at LEAST once 

and you will not be disappointed :) 

You can find them at:

No. 14, Jalan 21/22, 

Seapark, 

46300 Petaling Jaya, 

Malaysia.

Or you can visit their facebook page here :)

Deals that Steal :D

Hello my lovelies :3

Nowadays,

I actually see a lot more people on Groupon.

And yes, that includes my own parents O_O

So I actually DID try it, 

by downloading the app :P

It was. 

Addictive. 

Like seriously, 

looking at all these awesome deals for things that you love like

manicure,

hair treatments, 

makeup classes,

dining deals,

etc.

Makes you just go OHMAIGAWD I CAN FINALLY SAVE MONEY.

But when you check the details, 

you might find out that some are TOTALLY out of your range and it might require a bit of travelling :/

Then, I found out about Save22.com.my! 

It's basically something like Groupon,

BUT they show you deals that are available in malls near you.

YES. MALLS. 

Often enough, it's already hard enough to find whether there are deals going on unless you coincidentally stumble upon it while shopping,

this saves you walking around so much and also helps you know what deals you may have missed out when you weren't stalking the store's page enough. 

I couldn't believe it either, so I decided to log onto save22.com and try it out for myself.

The famous Mid Valley Megamall is the closest mall to me. 

Whenever I shop there, I usually don't stumble upon ANY deals. I'm so unlucky D: 

So when I logged on, I found so many deals! 

And I never knew there were all these deals ._. some shopper I am :P

Because I'm such a food lover I just had to check out the food first. 

I stumbled upon this promotion for a cafe called BoardRiders. 

I didn't even know this place existed OTL

Now I do :D 

And it is a pretty good deal (Y)

Not only did this website give me a chance to find awesome deals, which also gave me the chance to shop better,
but it showed me a place that I never knew existed!

That even helps my blogging, indirectly :P

So check it out here, I'm pretty sure you can find deals for your needs too :D

MOF Sweets & Coffee Cafe @ Sunway Pyramid

Had a shopping date with mom today at Sunway Pyramid,

and for lunch, 

we decided to try a cafe that I've always wanted to try :D

MOF Sweets and Coffee cafe :3

Every table was given a prepared set of utensils.. 

Actually I took this picture because we were waiting for the food to come...

Finally! The food came :D

This is my mom's maki :3

And I had this,

Tori Karaage Bento aka Chicken Karaage Bento :D 

I don't know what the lemon was for though ._.

The chicken was nice but the gyoza had quite a bit of a ginger taste :/

It kinda overpowered the meat taste that I was expecting :/

The flaw was that they only had green tea in a pot and not for individuals,

so unless you are with a friend and you guys are planning to stay for a LONG time to chit chat,

you either order their fruit/sweet drinks or live without drinks :/

We didn't get to order dessert because I was already SO FULL,

so I would actually just go back there to TRY their dessert cause the menu showed some really pretty pictures xD

So to visit them,

you can go to:

Rasa Utara @ Mid Valley :D

So sorry for the lack of updates :(

Been having assignments...

and they just keep coming! Dx

So...

had breakfast with mum and sis at...

RASA UTARA @ Mid Valley :)

I actually heard that it was pretty good(forgot who told me)

but sad the say,

I was a little disappointed :/

Their breakfast menu only consisted of TWO SETS.

Mee Siam

or

Nasi Lemak

The set comes with a free drink

Coffee, tea, or teh tarik if I remember correctly.

Since I don't really drink any of those,

I was thinking of ordering a Milo,

but to change, 

we had to pay the original price for the Milo which was real expensive.

So I went with the coffee..

There's the cup right there.

I ordered the nasi lemak, 

mainly cause I had a craving that day for nasi lemak.

Sadly,

the service was rather slow.

And the food quality is not much to my liking...

The chicken was a quite dry,

and the rice was too soft for my taste buds.

You can accumulate points for your BCard for this though.

I have not tried out the other meals in this place yet,

but currently,

I don't think I'd be going back there :/

Crayon Burger @ SS15

School has been pretty busy lately ><

I still haven't finished ALL of my homework Dx

UGH.

So we tried out this place, 

called Crayon Burger x3

And we actually thought it would be something like Burger Lab (though none of us have tried it before)

So far, it was on a good perception, 

I mean,

look at the doodles ><

But I didn't really expect colourful burgers,

like literally.

This is mine.

It has nachos, chicken, lettuce and cheese.

It was SLOPPY man ><

But I really didn't expect a GREEN burger.

It's said to be a vege bun so I don't know whether there is a lot of colouring added.

This is Jonathan's,

it was RED. 

Your eyes are not deceiving you,

it's literally RED.

The bun is said to have used Red Yeast,

so yeah..

his has hashbrowns in it.

Again, it's a real messy burger.

They use a number system so you can get yourself a table while waiting for your food.

It was real interesting,

and the service was pretty fast.

Also,

the restaurant was pretty much filled up so seating may be a little difficult.

Nonetheless,

the food quality is about a 7/10 for me,

mainly because it was really sloppy and the coloured buns made me doubt what was in it.

It's really cute though,

having colourful burgers,

brings colour into your life x3

For a meal anyway.

Here's where they're at :D

WAFFLES @ A&W!

Sorry for the lack of updates,

school is starting soon

so this is a fast short update.

WAFFLES FROM A&W!!!! :D

LOVE,

Jessica xD

Will update after school :D

The Star Cafe @ Taman Danau Desa, again :D

I've blogged about this restaurant before,

and I was glad to return!

This time with guests :3

Papa ordered Sang Har Meen, and this was actually pretty good :)

This is my spaghetti alfredo,

though this disappointed me a little as there was not much taste,

and the chicken was rather bland :/

There was also, banana fritters with ice cream,

and this I love :D

We stayed till the band came,

and they were AMAZING :D

That's it for the short update today! :D

By the way, we ate at the Star Cafe @ Danau Desa :D

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

Spend it with your loved one,

doesn't necessarily have to be a lover 

because you would also love your family and friends! :D

Jessica.

The Shang Palace @ Hotel Shang-Ri La

Had lunch with the Phang's :D

We were at the Shang Palace at Shang-Ri La Hotel

and I've actually been there a few times cause somehow my family loves the food there xD

This was what was on the table xD

Since it's Chinese New Year,

you gotta start with the Yee Sang ;)

The purpose of this is to have happiness among all your family members,

and usually you would wish for the best to all your family members while mixing this :D

We had prawns, 

with they're own mayonnaise.

It was HEAVENLY x3

For my readers,

in case you don't know, I am a HUGE fan of prawns

and this dish was amazing xD

To maintain a healthy meal,

we ordered vegetables,

mainly beans with lotus roots and nuts(forgot what nuts they were) and also asparagus

This was actually called four something something (I'm not too good with cantonese names)

and it consists of:

Siew Mai with Abalone,

Yam ball with pork fillings,

Scallop,

and fried mushrooms :D

Yong Chow fried rice,

a normal favourite of many :3

SIEW LONG BAO!!!! :D

Although these were a little on the dry side,

and the skin was a bit too thick for my taste :/

This dish goes with the "Lam Mei Fan" 

because in my opinion, 

it didn't have much flavour in it.

These are chinese sausages by the way,

and they are pretty salty.

But the family loves it xD

Have a Good Chinese New Year Everyone! :D

Jessica.

Welcome to the Year of the Snake!

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYONE

How's the day been so far? :D

The first day of Chinese New Year is always usually the most hectic and tiring day.

Because before that, we'd be cleaning up our houses so that our relatives would have a good impression.

Also, we'd be relatives :D

So this is how my CNY was :)

Received this from dad's colleague.

It's BEAUTIFUL.

They're butter cupcakes with red sugar icing on top designed as roses.

There were 14 of them :D

As the tradition goes,

before Chinese New Year itself,

it's culture that families get together and have what we call a "reunion dinner"

Usually we'd have homecooked meals and just sit around the table bonding and catching up :D

This was a behind the scene of the chicken,

it was cut up after that ><

And for buddhists, (well my family anyway)

on the first day of Chinese New Year,

we would have breakfast together after the tea giving ceremony and before the guests arrive :D

And the food is vegetarian as we will be vegetarian's the whole day :D

Homecooked vegetarian meal,

I LOVE BEANCURD

This is a picture of the grandfather clock in my grandfather's house,

apparently it has  A LOT of history behind it as it already existed before my grandfather was born :D

Which means,

this survived the Japanese occupation in Malaysia and everything,

if this clock could talk,

I bet there would be tons of stories :D

Well,

so far that has been my Chinese New Year,

I didn't take any pictures of guests because I was busy talking to them :D

How was your Chinese New Year? :D

Jessica.

Pontian Wanton Noodles @ SS15, Subang Jaya

A FOOD POST! :D

I know this is before CNY,

but food is a GOOD thing :D

Tried Pontian Wanton Noodles :D

It's located opposite Wisma Subang :D

Ordered fried wanton since it was recommended in the menu 

It's actually quite good :D

Had their Wanton noodles,

I think the noodles are a bit on the dry side,

but it was good.

They have three sizes, 

this was medium

and the amount was just right :D

Took a picture of their menu :D

Next time I will try their Laksa :3

Service was fast, 

and I was satisfied :D

It's a great place for anyone who wants fast food,

and I am going back there :D

Tried the pork ball noodle at Foh Foh Restaurant today,

it wasn't to my liking because the noodles were all soggy :/

But it was edible for a quick meal. 

Learnt so much these two weeks already,

especially about composing essays and stories.

Sadly, my vocabulary and analysing skills still needs a while to improve.

Panicking already haha
