FOOD + Friends = Great Combination

i enjoy good food... (which explains my horizontal growth .. hik hik)
i always read blogs where people manage to snap their food before feasting on it... i find that a bit difficult... coz when the food arrive... focus is directly on the food and scooping it to my mouth... but i still try to snap the food pix when i remember... here are some of the food pictures...


had lunch with roger + elia at Basil, BV. This is one of the best Thai restaurant with not so Thai-like decor. Good food, reasonable price. (if you're paying with HSBC card or any other participating cards, you'll get 10% off the total bill)




Went for Japanese buffet dinner at Jogoya, Starhill with my Subang Girls... this happens like 2-3 months once. Not easy to get everyone time... There were several options to begin with Lala Chong, Celabu seafood, KDE crispy duck, JOGOYA japs buffet. The vote went out to JOGOYA. Currently it's going on promotion - ladies are entitled with 50% discount. The normal rate is RM88++.
As I was about to call and make reservation, i happen to stumble upon reviews in TRIPADVISOR. there were a handful of negative reviews on JOGOYA.
Worst restaurant ever, not just worst buffet
What a dump!

Awful food and cleanliness all for a high price.

An expensive and unpleasant canteen kind of place


We were undecided at this moment... but Lin just wanted to give it a try and see the place. So we all went there.... its 'pay before enter' concept - its RM57 for each of us...

It actually turned out GREAT! I guess thanks to the review, I was mentally prepared - for the noise, the ambiance, the people,  the place. the malay workers were helpful enough to accommodate our requests for seating arrangement. Aside from the bad review, i find that the place is OK. Large choice of food, the salmon sashimi was fresh n soooo sedap. The western food range is also sedap. Seafood is also sedap. Ice Cream HaagenDasz - mmg la sedap... basically everything was sedap. Accompanied by good friends... makes a perfect night out! (but as usual - no pictures of the food)
After makan makan (mind u we only had a 2 hour limit) we walked back to Pavi and just hangout by the sidewalk...(dont u think pavillion has a very nice exterior building decor) chit chat some more... then head back to the parking lot. Hana shared a ride back to BJ.


Salam....
