金都串烧

Baby and I went around jb again ... (Dating without a destination nor a purpose) ==
And we discovered a finger licking BBQ stall in city square !!!!!!
It's somewhere around "tong pak fu" ~
Named "金都串烧"

As some might find the name familiar ... Yes , it's the famous food shop next to plaza sentosa . Where the most famous dish of them is 老鼠粉〜

The BBQ stuffs are quite pricey I would say ... The squid is 12 ringgit !!! One tiny piece of it !!! (Ok lah ... Size of palm lo)
But it is definitely delicious !!!

The BBQ taste so nice ... I think it's the way they seasoned the food ... The chicken wing is well barbecued but not dried ! It is a thin piece but surprisingly it is still juicy after the BBQ ! The squid is beyond description ... It is so so so juicy and well seasoned ! It is not too chewy like the squid we normally eat ... Baby and I both came to agreement that it was the best squid we've ate in our life ... He eventually craved for one more of it but I stopped him because of the price !

procrastination

It's been so long since i update my blog !!!!
wanted to blog about Malacca trip with James' family during CNY but was too busy for that ...
And i didn't even took pictures for it !


Well ... James took off day around valentine's day to accompany me in Malacca but his family wants to tag along ==

XD lol ...

so we had a few days trip in my hometown(which i know almost nothing about) ... and spent our valentine's day there !
James bought me a diamond necklace with white gold and rose gold .
which is like OMG ....
he lied that he didn't get me anything ...
and then lied that he bought me an empty antique box ...
but within the box was a SK jewellery case with diamond necklace in it !!!!!!!



here's a very sweet thing happened during the trip
(i drafted it in chinese so i lazy to type again in english >< )
和老公一起睡觉,他因为怕自己的打鼾声吵醒我,所以不敢睡熟。
他怕我冷到,一直起来帮我盖被被!
我睡觉把被被抢走,老公明明就很冷还不把被被抢回去,怕吵醒我〜
帮我盖被被也超级小心,怕吵醒我〜
老公啊老公〜你好可爱啊!

pastry baking


so lately i've been baking a lot ...
most of it are breakfast for hubby to bring to work ~
so today i made his favorite "otak-otak" puffs !!!!
it's as simple as stuffing otak-otak into ready made pastry ...

to know how to use ready made pastry : 
http://coffeeteaorjean.blogspot.com/2013/02/ready-made-pastry-baking-for-beginners.html


so here is the outcome today !!!! 
puffs and triangular thinnggyyyy ???


Ready made pastry : baking for beginners

I always go to Starbucks , not only their beverages addicting , also their pastries , especially the chic'o cheese ( sausage wrapped in pastry skin )
I thought to myself , why not learn to make some myself instead of spending unnecessary money on those delicious bastards that cost a bomb ?!
And so my mum , who is a baker , told me there are ready made pastry to be bought from the freezer section in the markets , just wrap it around a sausage and bake it in oven . As easy as that .

So I went to a few market hunting the ready made pastry .
Disappointing enough , couldn't find it in either jusco or tesco .
And at last , found it in plentong giant !!!

What we need ?

1.purchase ready made pastry ! (4.90 ringgit per pack)

2.mould/ baking pan ( the heart shape cookie cutter was 5ringgit from 100yen store)


3. Butter

4.anything u wanna stuff in your pastry : sausage , ham and cheese , kaya , peanut butter ~~~

5.oven / convention microwave ( I'm using a microwave in convention mode , works in the same way of an oven )
6. Aluminum foil ( with / without )

First , take out a piece of the pastry

Then , cut it out using a mould , in this case I'm using a heart shape cookie cutter ...


Put some kaya / jam at the center and cover it with another piece . Seal them in!


i would recommend to press along the side with chopstick end instead of fork ... it is neater 









Grease the aluminum foil with butter to prevent it sticking to the foil .


Preheat the microwave in convention mode , set the temperatures to 200 degree Celsius . ( on the packaging was a temperate wayyy higher than 200, but trust me , 200 works just well , no burnt pastries )
Place the pastries in , bake for 15 minutes .



And tadaaaaa !!! They're done !!!
I guess I had to press the pastry a little because they "poooof" rises sooooooo much than it should've !!!!!!





( I've only made two puffs , one failed - distorted , another one also rises too much , but the shape still appears to be a heart shape lah ...)

They may be distorted but the taste even better than Starbucks' , really ...
It was considered cheating using a ready made pastry but who cares ! Lie if u need to ! Impress your new bf ! Impress your friends and colleagues !!! They'll never find out u cheated ! XD

Alternatively , you can also make it into a pie . I'll do that tomorrow . Gonna make some "otak-otak" pie for baby boy .

Japanese restaurant in City Square


so baby boy and I went on a date on last Sunday in CS again.
there's a lot of new shops in the newly renovated CS !!!
there's this japanese reastaurant beside Sakae Sushi that sells reasonable priced japanese food .
the ramens are around 15 ringgit each . 
my salmon nigiri was 9 i think
the interior was very welcoming .


baby ordered shoyu ramen . 
it was really nice !
but the quantity wasn't satisfying ...
baby was complaining it isn't filling at alll......
 i ordered salmon nigiri !
it was obviously handmade .
the salmon was fresh .
but the rice is a little too sweet for me .......

and we waited quite a while for the food to be served ...

i would rate this shop 7/10 .

and i totally forgot the name .....
==


and then ... tadaaadaaadaaadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
sweet picture collage of me and baby !!!

and ... a self-shot in college today !!!
