A dinner date with hubby : Cappucino Garden Cafe @ Happy Garden Kuala Lumpur

This is definitely not a new place for me and my hubby. I used to stay in Happy Garden before I was married and this is how I discovered this cafe as not much people notice there is a nice garden cafe because it's located inside the housing area.

Since I have recently started blogging, so I wanted to introduce this lovely place with ya'all. 

This is the menu we have for yesterday.  :)

 Iced Chocolate with Cream

  Iced Latte

 Fisherman's Pie : Classic fish pie topped with creamy mashed potatoes, sprinkled with cheddar  

 cheese & baked to perfection, served with a slice of homemade garlic bread & fresh vegetables.

Herbs Roasted Whole Leg of Chicken: Oven-roasted whole chicken leg, topped with its own juices, served with butter rice & sauteed vegetables.

 Homemade muffins

 Homemade cakes 

Italian Coffee: I can't remember how many stamping is needed but you can redeem a free coffee after you have your stamping card full with stamped. Ask from the waiter/waitress. :)

 

The owner of the shop Mr. Jim also own a Garden Poetry Flower Shop. If you noticed, they sell beautiful orchids and other plants. Also, there're classes to enroll for " Flower Arranging".

Salted Fish Pao （咸鱼包）

翻身，翻身，咸鱼都会翻身，高天宝的咸鱼包 。。。。 LoL *

If you watch a Hong Kong drama called "Gilded Chopsticks" (“食为奴”), then you know the script that I'm talking about. Recently facebook is crowded with the salted fish pao's recipe,  it's the trend now. Why not I do and have a try and see how tasty it is, I've seen the 'king' enjoying the pao very much as if it's super delicious. *tempting* looking at how he eats....yummy....

My friend said it's very hard to do this as her friend failed it, hmm...somehow mine consider successful, why don't you have a try, maybe yours is better then mine. :)

1) Pour boiling water into flour. Combine all. Add in cold water and knead into dough. Rest for 30min in fridge.  / 1) 先把沸水加入面粉搅拌，再加冷水揉成面团。 放入冰箱休面30分钟

2) Fried the salted fish until golden crispy and mixed evenly with ingredient B & ingredient C /把咸鱼稍微煎一下, 然后把肉馅材料和调味料放入碗内，加入煎过的咸鱼搅拌均匀。

3) Divide rested dough into 35-40g pieces. Roll dough into thin round disk with rolling pin. Place about a tbsp. of filling and seal the bun. Pour about 2tbsp cooking oil into wok. Place the salted fish bun in the wok. Adjust the heat to medium heat. Add in 1tbsp water, pan fry both side till golden (till water is all dried up)/ 面团切小块，包入肉馅，要把口封好，不然煎时肉汁会流失。先把不沾底的平底锅烧热加入冷油（不需要很多），把包放入锅内，转中火让它煎一下，再加 1 汤匙水盖上锅盖让它煎到干水，然后把另一面煎到金黄色就可以起锅了！！

Korea Vermicelli Noodle - JapChe

There's a Korea Fair in One Utama yesterday, saw this vermicelli noodle and I bought two pack home to cook as I like this noodle very much.

So I did my own JapChe, adding in the ingredients I like including seaweed (normally JapChe doesn't come with seaweed).

Korea Vermicelli Noodle - JapChe

Ingredient
1) Onion
2) Carrot
3) Garlic
4) Mushroom
5) Red Chilly
6) Egg
7) Minced Meat
8) Seaweed (optional)


Seasoning
1) Soya Sauce
2) Sesame Oil
3) Black Pepper
4) Sugar

Here a snap of the photo of vermicelli noodle, seaweed & soy sauce that I've bought yesterday at Korea Fair

Carrot & mushroom cut into slice

 

 Seaweed deep into hot water, slice onion, garlic & chillies. Prepare an egg.

 Pan fried onion, garlic, carrot, chillies and egg

 Pan fried minced meat and mushroom, season which some pepper and soy sauce

 Set both aside for cook later

Last Step: Put some hot water in the pan with soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil, cook until the vermicelli become  soft (remove some of the water so it won't get too wet, it suppose to be presented dry).  Add in the cooked dishes and seaweed into the vermicelli, flavour with some sesame oil,  pepper and a little bit soy sauce and fried until even. 

There you go, JapChe! Enjoy cooking! :-) 

Love spread by IBMers - Never Stop In Believing, Miracles Do Happened & there's always hope! Pray for MH370 @ Day 6

Today, when I was about to go home. I saw a lot of colorful cards pasted on the glass at the guest entrance hall in IBM. As I walk near to see, it was all the wishes from IBMers to the MH370's passenger - hoping for their safe return.

My tears dropped, I'm touched... (very sentimental person). It has been 6 days and MH370 is not found yet. No news so far, some of the families are devastated, some have made up their worse mind but I want to say, nothing is not impossible - miracles do happened.

There's an IBMer on flight MH370 if you watched the news - Mr. Philip Wood. His work station was covered with swan origami made by the colleagues; some of them may knew him personally, some may not; just like me. But you can see, people/human are giving their best wishes to another, it's a very good thing to see.

Love is everywhere I can say, with the power of love I believe some how, they will all come back safe and sound. I'm waiting :)  Some said God always have his way, he will bring them back some how - believe in God, believe in miracle and never give up hope. Let us pray for the best, that is at least what we can do.

 Loves from the IBMers to MH370
