The Street Cafe @ Sunway Pyramid

Jan 062010

Are you craving for Korean food? Well, I am. I’ve found this cafe in Pyramid located at Asian Avenue. It was not bad. However, the atmosphere is very satisfactory.

Kimchi Pajeon

This is like a pancake. I love it a lot because it is a bit spicy. Not too spicy. I think the sauce is vinegar. Like Siu Long Bau, it tastes better with the vinegar sauce.

Kimchi Ramyeon

I love spicy food so I’ve ordered Kimchi flavor. However, it wasn’t spicy enough. So, I think it’s ok-ok lah. The noodle is nice actually. Not too soft or hard. Just right.

Teriyaki Chicken Dosirak

Actually, Koreans eat Dosirak (lunch box) when they have less money -according to Korean Dramas. The rice is actually too hard and it sticks together. So, I would recommend that you avoid ordering Dosirak. The chicken is hard and less but the taste is satisfactory. I think the sausage attracts me more. Haha. They also include soup and kimchi as a side dish.

Side Dishes

Overall, I would say, the atmosphere is good but the food wasn’t the best comparing with other Korean restaurants. I enjoyed hearing updated Korean songs while I eat too. The food is too little and the price is too high.

The Pressroom

I had dinner with my parents again. This time, no more Sushi Zanmai. We went to The Pressroom at Bangsar Shopping Centre. It’s near La Bodega and Coffee Bean at Ground Floor.

It is our first time at The Pressroom and they introduced to us as a French Cuisine. So, we went in because my dad desperately wants to drink beer.

Braised Wagyu cheek with turnip risotto (RM 36.00)

If you don’t know about Wagyu beef, it’s delicious, soft, tender, and juicy. Seriously. When you put into your mouth, it will melt immediately. It’s so juicy and tasty that you will beg for more. *sorry to those who do not consume beef*

I give it a 10/10! two-thumbs-up!

The rice is good as well. In my opinion. I love this dish. I would give it a 10/10. I love it because the taste suits me, the beef is really worth it and the rice is delicious with the sauce.

Spinach gnocchi with braised beef, tomato concasse and blue cheese sauce (RM 28.00)

At first I like it, but after a few bites, I was like “uggh”. So full and filling. It’s cheese! Blue cheese! Just share with your friends and it will be just right. I would recommend that it becomes a side dish or starter. If you are drinking wine with it, it would taste better.

I give it a 6/10.

Last is what I’ve ordered as the french waiter recommended it to me.

Duck confit with sauteed cepe and rosti potatoes (RM 32.00)

Looks nice right? But too dry. I love juicy meat or at least with sauce. So, my mum asked for sauce and he brought sauce for me. It’s better after the french waiter added sauce for me. I would give it a 7/10. It’s not bad actually.

I give it a 7/10! It's not bad

Lastly, my mum ordered coffee. She loves coffee. Me too but I can’t drink coffee cause I will either stay awake the entire night or my heart starts to feel painful. So, no coffee for me unless it’s in the morning

Sushi Zanmai

As you all know, this is a famous sushi restaurant that brings in the best ambiance and good quality sushi into Malaysia (compared to Sake Sushi and Sushi King). However, I was quite disappointed today when I went to Sushi Zanmai at The Gardens…

Actually, I plan to eat at home since it’s recession and I decided to do my parents a favor which is not spend money. But, my dad “fat hao” and wants to go out to eat. So he suggested Sushi Zanmai. I will never object when it comes to eating Sushi Zanmai because I think it’s really good and the service is acceptable (free flow of green tea…WOOHOO!). Every time I go out with my girlfriends, we will end up eating lunch/dinner at Sushi Zanmai, god knows why.

Anyways, let me show you some pictures of the sushi that I ate last Friday with my boi.

inari, black caviar, and ebikko sushi

Kanimayo Maki

Dai Dai Roll

Chuka Lidako

Salmon Zanmai

Here are some of my favorites! However, today, I am very disappointed because I found that The Garden’s outlet is serving smaller potion, and I mean it. It’s like “shuk shui” already. Come on, recession already, you still want to make the portion smaller. Also, the waiter told us next month, they are changing the menu, adding and taking some off. Additionally, the price will INCREASE! Oh my god, there goes my pocket money. As soon as our orders come, three of us (mum, dad and me) had this shocked look on our face, while looking at those small small sushi. It wasn’t like that when I went last month.

Those delicious sushi that you see in the picture are from Pyramid outlet. So, if you are considering about eating Sushi Zanmai, better go to Sunway Pyramid outlet. The manager of The Gardens is very bad. I’ve noticed that he has been stereotyping a lot. He serves the ang mohs (westerners) first and very polite to them. For example, he will purposely walk to the ang moh’s table and ask them if everything is ok or how they find the food, ok or not and stuffs like that. For us, locals, he care shits about us. Really. It hasn’t been once, it has been a lot of times because I go very often.

My point is, Sushi Zanmai’s service has drop down from rate 10 to 3, in my opinion tho. Some of you find that it’ll not be a big problem. But to me, it is a very big problem because they really cut down a lot in terms of quality of food and service.

Food : 3/10

Price : 6/10

Service : 3/10 (manager) 8/10 (waiter/waitress)

Decoration : 7/10

Cleanliness : 9/10

Overall : 4/10 (used to be 10 tho)

Finally it’s out, few days back. Faster, better, and more functions.

Today, I went to Isetan, Lot 10 for food fair. Can’t believe the crowd! It’s just japanese food. Why so many people? Anyways, my dad n mum gave up because it was really a lot of people lining up to pay. So, we decided to walk to Pavilion for lunch. We ate at Crystal Jade Restaurant where there is Shark Fin Soup for only RM 28.80++ per bowl and it’s really a lot. I was so full after drinking it.

After that, we decided to look for MAC store so that I can find out if my 32GB iTouch is available and guess what? So fortunate, I saw an exhibition at 1st floor. Also, there are promotions. FREE GIFTS! I booked one right away and they gave me free gifts. (Now my parents are having second thoughts of getting one for themselves or not =p)

iTouch 3rd Gen

For 32GB, they are giving away,
Skin [see through] and 4-in-1 dock adapter OR FM transmitter
If, you’re taking 64GB, you are getting,
all three items (Skin [see through] and 4-in-1 dock adapter AND FM transmitter)

and if you add RM 199 for 1 year of warranty, you can get,
Car charger

Well, it’s really worth it, I found out that the skin they are giving away worth at least RM68 and the car charger is RM 40 and above. Also, they gave me a member card and there’s a lucky draw. They said, if i use my member card to buy skin and screen protector, I get an additional of 10% of discount.

So, what are you waiting for? Go visit the exhibition tomorrow!

*This exhibition is under Epic Centre (5th floor, Pavilion)*
**So sorry for no pictures of food or exhibition, forgot to bring cam cam** =(
***iTouch review will be up as soon as I get my hands on it*** gg
